Artist/Band: Elvis Costello
Lyrics for Song: Such Unlikely Lovers
Lyrics for Album: Painted from Memory [1998]



On a hot city day

When your white shirt turns to grey

That's when she'll arrive

When you look how you feel

Someone steps upon your heel

That's when she will come

Listen now

I'm not saying that there will be violins

But don't be surprised if they appear

Playing in some doorway

Still I can't believe that this is happening



We're such unlikely lovers

Though no one seems to notice as they hurry by

Ask me what I'm thinking, and I won't deny it

Can you believe it's happening?

Can you believe it's happening?



There were no magic spells

You can keep the flowers and bells

They just don't seem right

Can it actually be?

Me and you and you and me

Though we're like day and night



Listen now

I'm not saying that there will be violins

But don't be surprised if they appear

Playing in some doorway

Still I can't believe that this is happening



We're such unlikely lovers

Though no one seems to notice as they hurry by

Ask me what I'm feeling, and I won't deny it

Can you believe it's happening?

I am bewildered

Can you believe it's happening?

Somebody help me

Can you believe it's happening?
