Elvis Costello - Toledo lyrics
All through the night you telephoned<br>I saw the light blinking red<br>Beside the cradle<br>But you don't know how far I've gone<br>Now I must live with the lie<br>That I made<br>But if I call, I know I won't have to say it<br>You'll hear my voice - something is bound to betray it<br><br>But do people living in toledo<br>Know that their name hasn't travelled very well? <br>And does anybody in ohio<br>Dream of that spanish citadel? <br>But it's no use saying that I love you<br>And how that girl really didn't mean a thing to me<br>For if anyone should look into your eyes<br>It's not forgiveness that they're gonna see<br><br>You hear her voice - how could you do that? <br>You hear her voice - how could you do that? <br><br>So I walked outside in the bright<br>Sunshine and lovers pass by<br>Smiling and joking<br>But they don't know the fool I was<br>Why should they care what was lost<br>What was broken? <br><br>But if I call, I know I won't have to say it<br>You'll hear my voice - something is bound to betray it<br><br>But do people living in toledo<br>Know that their name hasn't travelled very well? <br>And does anybody in ohio<br>Dream of that spanish citadel? <br>But it's no use saying that I love you<br>And how that girl really didn't mean a thing to me<br>For if anyone should look into your eyes<br>It's not forgiveness that they're gonna see<br><br>But do people living in toledo<br>Know that their name hasn't travelled very well? <br>And does anybody in ohio<br>Dream of that spanish citadel? <br>But we still have florence, alabama<br>We don't have paris, and we don't have rome
