Elvis Costello Lyrics for Song: Love For Sale
 Lyrics for Album: Trust [1981]
 
 
 
 39851>When the only sound on the empty street
 
 Is the heavy tread of the heavy feet
 
 That belong to a lonesome cop
 
 I open shop
 
 When the moon so long has been gazing down
 
 On the wayward ways of a wayward town
 
 That a smile becomes a smirk
 
 I go to work
 
 
 
 Love for sale
 
 Appetizing young love for sale
 
 Love that's fresh and still unspoiled
 
 Love that's only slightly soiled
 
 Love for sale
 
 
 
 Who will buy? Who would like to sample my supply?
 
 Who's prepared to pay the price for a trip to paradise?
 
 Love for sale
 
 
 
 Let the poets pipe of love in their childish ways
 
 I know every kind of love better far than they
 
 If you want the thrill of love, I've been through the mill of love
 
 Old love, new love
 
 Every kind but true love
 
 
 
 For sale
 
 Appetizing young love for sale
 
 If you want to buy my wares
 
 Follow me and climb the stairs
 
 Love for sale
 
 Love for sale
