Текст Elvis Costello – Mr. & Mrs. Hush

I tripped through a house of mirrors
Distorted my suspicions and fears (I heard a whisper)
There is a place where those secrets begin (they had a list)
I gave my name and they invited me in (but here’s the twist)

Haven’t you tired of that darkness yet?
Didn’t you cry your heart out?
It’s only a dream
What is it about love you can’t accept?
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
To be
Mr. and Mrs. Hush
Mr. and Mrs. Hush

But it was something I just couldn’t understand
Until I slipped my finger into the band
Just think what those eyes might betray
Stare hard and now don’t look away

Haven’t you tired of that darkness yet?
Didn’t you cry your heart out?
It’s only a dream
What is it about love you can’t accept?
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
To be
Mr. and Mrs. Hush
Mr. and Mrs. Hush

I don’t know if I’m deep down right inside her heart
Or outside her door
I don’t know if I have the key to either
Uncertain if I should take her hand or leave her

(I thought I saw her)
It’s a game of blindfold and bluff
(I thought I saw her)
You know I love you
Is it ever enough?
(I thought I saw her)
Oh, what did I know
(I thought I saw her)
Heigh-ho and there you go
(I thought I saw her)
A voice that caresses and heels like spurs
(I thought I saw her)
What if you walked in with some other fella
(I thought I saw her)
Heat is rising
And red is the colour
(I thought I saw her)
Green is the colour of my true love’s eyes
(I thought I saw her)
And green is the colour of those jealous disguises

Haven’t you tired of that darkness yet?
Didn’t you cry your heart out?
It’s only a dream
What is it about love you can’t accept?
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
Are you ready?
To be
Mr. and Mrs. Hush
Mr. and Mrs. Hush
Mr. and Mrs. Hush
Mr. and Mrs. Hush
