Elvis Costello - Alison - live version lyrics

Oh, it's so funny to be seeing you after so long, girl And with the way you look, I understand that you were not impressed But I heard you let that little friend of mine Take off your party dress I'm not gonna get too sentimental Like those other sticky valentines 'Cause I don't know if you are loving somebody I only know it isn't mine Allison, I know this world is k**ing you Oh, Allison, my aim is true Well, I see you've got a husband now Did he leave your pretty fingers lying in the wedding cake? You used to hold him right in your hand But it took all that he could take Sometimes I wish that I could stop you from talking When I hear the silly things that you say I think somebody better put out the big light 'Cause I can't stand to see you this way Allison, I know this world is k**ing you Oh, Allison, my aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true My aim is true
