[Elvis Costello, The Imposters, Lucinda Williams - There's a Story in Your Voice lyrics]

Once upon another time if you had the need
I'd step right in the shoes
That you've been walking
'Cos someone put the hurt in you
For every one to see
And you only have to speak
To tell your fortune

There's a story in your voice
Both by damage and by choice
It tells of promises and pleasure
And a tale of wine and woe
The uneasy time to come
And the long way 'round we go to get there

Once you told me fairy tales everybody knows
But I didn't care for their prediction
Now you say you're leaving me
And packing up your clothes
I finally see you were a work of fiction



Far away, not far enough
'Cos I can still recall
How it felt when I read that last sentence
Now I go inside some rooms
With Gideon in them all
And hide myself from all hope of repentance

There's a story in your eyes
Cheap sunglasses might disguise
But when the bedroom light reveals
All that bravado and that fright
That you cover up in spite
Attempts to strip away this fabrication
