my thief - elvis costello & burt bacharach lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
when i go to sleep, you become my thief
why don’t you steal what you can keep?
but you won’t let me be
you break into my dreams
and every day seems different
sometimes i pretend you’ll come back again
and you’ll console the heart you stole
have pity on the man
who knows that you have gone
and has begun to break down

[chorus]
i feel almost possessed
so long as i don’t lose this glorious distress then
you can take all i have left
i know it’s over
if you can’t be my lover
be my thief

[verse 2]
i’m so drowsy now, i’ll unlock the door
what fades in time will hurt much more
so here’s that happy scene
where you come back to me
it’s only found in fiction

[chorus]

[outro]
“i didn’t lead you on
but there will always be
a little larceny in everyone
so hush and don’t you cry
i’m trying to be kind
because i have a perfect alibi”
