Someone Took The Words Away

Someone Took The Words Away - Elvis Costello (埃尔维斯 科斯特洛)

Written by：elvis costello

Poor head

Can hardly move my lips

For speaking

I said

So what is this thing I cannot explain

I'd blame all the things I feel but can't quite place

Perhaps they're written

On my face

Someone took the words away

Why don't you speak up

And say what you mean

Summon my powers of conversation

I talk to myself I'm fine

When you're around

Then I decline the invitation

It's strange to finally find myself

So tongue tied

A change

Has come over me I'm powerless to express

Every thing I know but cannot speak

And if I try

My voice

Will break

Someone took the words away

Someone took the words away
