Elvis Costello Either Side Of The Same Town Lyrics

Either Side Of The Same Town Lyrics

Nothing will ever be the same

All of the promises we made they seem hollow

But there is still streets in this town

Marked with your shadow



So if you see me, look surprised

If you don't just pass me by

And I might even touch your sleeve

Oh, as you turn and leave



Now it's hard to act like strangers

When we used to be so strong

Everything is changing

And most of it is wrong



What do we know of anything?

Two fools of some renown

Either side, either side of the same town

Either side, either side of the same town



Somewhere there's a light

I can sense it oh though I may fall back again

Although it's a fight

I know I must remain



Now it's hard to keep ignoring

Someone you recognize

If I seem contented

It's only my disguise



What do we know of anything?

Two fools of some renown

Either side, either side of the same town

Either side, either side of the same town

Either side, either side of the same town
