Elvis Costello - I Thought I'd Write To Juliet Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • I thought Id write to juliet, for she would understand
  • And when someone is already dead they can no longer let you down
  • Instead I find myself talking to you, as my oldest friend
  • Tell me how I can advise someone, that I dont even know,
  • To welcome death
  • For I received a letter that is worth reporting
  • And though it may raise a cynical smile
  • It leaves a sinking feeling
  • Like when a soldier in a story says to the sergeant...
  • Have you seen my pride and joy? ...
  • You know the rest...and its no joke...forgive me please as I quote...
  • This is a letter of thanks, as Im so bored here in I cant
  • Say where.
  • So Im writing to people that I may never meet
  • And I was thinking if something you said...
  • Im a female soldier, my name is constance.
  • I enlisted in the military needing funds for college
  • Im twenty-three years old and if I do get home alive
  • I imagine I may think again...
  • Im sleeping with my eyes open for fear of attack
  • Your words are a comfort, theyre the best thing that I have
  • Apart from family pictures and, of course, my gas mask
  • I dont know why I am writing to you

    • Report error in lyric
