Someone Took The Words Away Lyrics

The song Someone Took The Words Away is performed by Elvis Costello in the album named North in the year 2003 .



Poor head can hardly move my lips for speaking
I said, "So what is this thing I can't explain?"
I blame all the things I feel but can't quite place
Perhaps they're written on my face
Someone took the words away

Why don't you speak up and say what you mean?
Summon my powers of conversation
I talk to myself, I'm fine
When you're around
Then I decline the invitation

It's strange to finally find myself so tongue-tied
A change has come over me, I'm powerless to express
Every thing I know but cannot speak
And if I try my voice will break
Someone took the words away, someone took the words away
