Elvis Costello – Taking My Life In Your Hands Lyrics  Share

From Elvis Costello's album: The Juliet Letters

My dear impulsive darling I suspect my letter got to
you too late
And it^,s really just a silly fragment of paper
But it means so much to those who wait
All the suffering days and nights till I dare dream again
There you suddenly stand and I^,ll be damned if you
didn^,t disappear with the dawn

[Chorus:]
Hours pass and darkness comes
Soon I will close my eyes
Will you return if you don^,t reply
You^,ll be taking my life in your hands
You^,ll be taking my life in your hands
Taking my life in your hands
[ Taking My Life In Your Hands lyrics from

I don^,t know why my dearest darling
I can^,t tell you how I feel when you are near
When I see you have returned my letters unopened
I will tear them up, your voice ringing in my ears
But you^,re kidding yourself if you think this
correspondence will end
I can always pretend words I don^,t have the courage to
send
Reach you

[Chorus]
