Alison — текст песни (Elvis Costello)

Oh its so funny to be seeing you after so long, girl.

And with the way you look I understand

That you are not impressed.

But I heard you let that little friend of mine

Take off your party dress.

Im not going to get too sentimental

Like those other sticky valentines,

cause I dont know if youve been loving somebody.

I only know it isnt mine.



Alison, I know this world is killing you.

Oh, alison, my aim is true.



Well I see youve got a husband now.

Did he leave your pretty fingers lying

In the wedding cake?

You used to hold him right in your hand.

Ill bet he took all he could take.

Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking

When I hear the silly things that you say.

I think somebody better put out the big light,

Cause I cant stand to see you this way.



Alison, I know this world is killing you.

Oh, alison, my aim is true.

My aim is true.
