Elvis Costello

Elvis Costello (born Declan Patrick MacManus, 25 August 1954) is an English singer-songwriter. He began his career as part of London's pub rock scene in the early 1970s and later became associated with the first wave of the British punk/New Wave movement of the mid-to-late 1970s. Steeped in word play, the vocabulary of Costello's lyrics is broader than that of most popular songs. His music has drawn on many diverse genres; one critic described him as a "pop encyclopaedia", able to "reinvent the past in his own image". more »

In the darkest place 
I know 
That is where you`ll find me 
Even though you didn't have to remind me 
I shut out the lights 
Your eyes adjust 
They`ll never be the same 
You know I love you so 
Lets start again 

Since you put me down 
It seems 
I've been very gloomy 
You may laugh, but pretty girls look right through me 
They don`t sense the faintest glimmering 
That is the torch I bear 
There`s light enough for me to find my way 

But I only have to tell myself that by now 
You could be with someone else 
Is there light beneath your door and 
Laughter from within? 

Do your friends come around 
Saying, "Try to find another lover"? 
He won`t love you like I do 

In the darkest place 
I`m lost 
I have abandoned every hope 
Maybe you`ll understand I must 
Shut out the light 

Your eyes adjust 
They`ll never be the same 
You know I love you so 
Lets start again 

Do your friends come around 
Saying, "Try to find another lover"? 
He won`t love you like I do 

In the darkest place 
That is where you`ll find me 
In the darkest place 
That is where you`ll find me
