Anne Sofie von Otter, Elvis Costello - Broken Bicycles/Junk lyrics
[Anne Sofie von Otter, Elvis Costello - Broken Bicycles/Junk lyrics]
Rusted handle bars out in the rain
Somebody must have an orphanage for
These things that nobody wants any more
September's reminding July
It's time to be saying good-bye
Summer is gone but our love will remain
Like old broken bicycles
Left out in the rain
Broken bicycles don't tell my folks
There's all those playing cards
Pinned to the spokes
Laid down like skeletons out on the lawn
One wheel won't turn
While the other has gone
The seasons can turn on a dime
Somehow I forget every time
These things you've given me
They always will stay
They're broken but I'll never throw them away
Motor cars, handlebars bicycles for two
Broken hearted jubilee
Parachutes, Army boots sleeping bags for two
Sentimental jamboree buy, buy
Says the sign in the shop window why, why
Says the junk in the yard
Candlesticks, building bricks
Something old and new
Memories for you and me
Buy, buy says the sign in the shop window
Why, why says the junk in the yard
