Elvis Costello - Indoor Fireworks Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • We play these parlour games
  • We play at make believe
  • When we get to the part where I say that Im going to leave
  • Everybody loves a happy ending but we dont even try
  • We go straight past pretending
  • To the part where everybody loves to cry
  • (chorus)
  • Indoor fireworks
  • Can still burn your fingers
  • Indoor fireworks
  • We swore we were safe as houses
  • Theyre not so spectacular
  • They dont burn up in the sky
  • But they can dazzle or delight
  • Or bring a tear
  • When the smoke gets in your eyes
  • You were the spice of life
  • The gin in my vermouth
  • And though the sparks would fly
  • I thought our love was fireproof
  • Sometimes wed fight in public darling
  • With very little cause
  • But different kinds of sparks would fly
  • When we got on our own behind closed doors
  • (chorus)
  • Its time to tell the truth
  • These things have to be faced
  • My fuse is burning out
  • And all that powders gone to waste
  • Dont think for a moment dear that well ever be through
  • Ill build a bonfire of my dreams
  • And burn a broken effigy of me and you
  • (chorus)
