Song information On this page you can read the lyrics of the song When It Sings , by - Elvis Costello. Song from the album North, in the genre ПопWhen It Sings |
| All the sorrows and the joys like magnetism |
| And a selfish boy looks through a prism |
| And says what is But never asks what isn’t |
| But a voice contains many precious things |
| It laughs |
| And then it sings |
| And all the lies that we can tell |
| To our foolish selves |
| Maybe this is the love song that I refused to Write her when I loved her like I used to And I fear my heart may spin and fracture |
| Like tears of stone falling from a statue |
| But a voice contains all that’s true and false |
| Then cries for someone else |
| And for some honest tenderness |
| So I must confess |
| All the words you say to me Have music in them |
| All the sorrows and the joys like magnetism |
| And a selfish boy looks through a prism |
| And says what is But never asks what isn’t |
