Either Side Of The Same Town Lyrics - Delivery Man - Elvis Costello

Nothing can ever be the same 

All of the promises we made seem hollow 

But there's still some streets in this town 

Oh, they're marked, they're marked with your shadow 

So if you see me, look surprised 

Well, well, well, if you don't 

Oh, just pass me by 

And I may, I may even brush your sleeve 

Oh, as you turn around, turn around and leave

Now it's hard to act like strangers 

When we used to be so strong 

Everything is changing 

And most of it is wrong 

What do we know of anything 

Two fools of some renown 

Either side, either side of the same town 

Somewhere there's a light 

Oh, I can sense it 

Though I may fall back again 

Oh, I know, yes, I know it's a fight 

Oh, but I must, Lord, I must 

Withstand the strain 

Photos 

Now it's hard to keep ignoring 

Someone you recognise 

And if I seem contented 

Well, that's only my disguise 

What do we know of anything 

Two fools of some renown 

Either side, either side of the same town 

Oh, yeah, either side, either side of the same town
