Lyrics for King Of Confidence by Elvis Costello:
| | | Artist: | Elvis Costello |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | King Of Confidence | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 70 | | | | Lyrics: | She had her mind made up just like her face
She painted in the lines and shadows
She
shaded color in that would express
The lonely mood that follows
Love, short and painful
and tidy lies in self-defense
She just told a thing or two to the King of Confidence
You said that he could tell her anything
She even held him when he was crying
And made her feel she was the only one
You knew that he was lying when he said he was
lying
Love is short and painful, that she finally made sense
Of the love he had for
the one and only King of Confidence
It's hard enough to be your lover and alone your
confidant
You say you know what I need but you don't know who I want
It's just another
tawdry morning now
another tarnished farewell
Your body's tired and complaining now
But you're too tore down to tell
Love is short and painful, all you kind ladies and
gents
I spent years and a couple of days as the King of Confidence
It's hard enough
to be your lover and alone your confidant
You say you know what I need but you don't know who I
want
It's just another tawdry morning now
another tarnished farewell
Your body's
tired and complaining now
But you're too tore down to tell
Love is short and painful,
all you kind ladies and gents
I spent years and a couple of days as the King of Confidence
I spent years and a couple of days as the King of Confidence | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
