I Lost You - Elvis Costello




I Lost You

I Lost You

You slipped from your costume

Like an actress in this tragedy

You're just an apparition in a haunting mystery

I fear that you've passed over me...

And there's nothing I can do because

I Lost You



Just like a rich man who is careless of his change

I took you for granted

And then you went to strangers

From deep within my heart I feel a distant fading pulse

A poor woman looking for last coin in her purse



I Lost You

I Lost You

You slipped from your costume

Like an actress in this tragedy

You're just an apparition in a haunting mystery

I fear that you've passed over me...

And there's nothing I can do because

I Lost You



Just like a counterfeit you pass from palm to palm

I chased the one I surely loved to someone else's arms

I mislaid my senses, now that's easy to say

A fool who took his pleasure but then threw his love away



I Lost You

I Lost You

You slipped from your costume

Like an actress in this tragedy

You're just an apparition in a haunting mystery

I fear that you've passed over me...

And there's nothing I can do because

I Lost You
