Elvis Costello - American Without Tears #2 lyrics

Breathe ringtone on your mobile phone

Breathe in breathe out your contradictions

Breathe in breathe out your words of fiction

Breathe in breathe out you say, “but not on my time.”

Says I, “Good bye to Grace.”

Breathe in breathe out your pale addiction

Breathe in breathe out without conviction

Breathe in breathe out you say, “but not on my time.”

Says I, “Good bye to Grace.”

Says the look on my face

Says I, “Good bye to Grace.”

“But not on my time.”

Says I, “Good bye to Grace.”

We may never be something better

We may be down but we're not afraid

We may never be something better

We may be down but we're not afraid

Breathe in breathe out without permission

Breathe in breathe out your final mission

Breathe in breathe out you say, “but not on my time.”

Says I, “Good bye to Grace.”

Says I, “Good bye to Grace.”

Says I, “Good bye to Grace.”

Says I, “Good bye to Grace.”

“Say goodbye to Grace.” [8x]
