She Was No Good Lyrics - Secret, Profane And Sugarcane - Elvis Costello

She 

May be the face I can't forget. 

A trace of pleasure or regret 

May be my treasure or the price I have to pay. 

She may be the song that summer sings. 

May be the chill that autumn brings. 

May be a hundred different things 

Within the measure of a day.

She 

May be the beauty or the beast. 

May be the famine or the feast. 

May turn each day into a heaven or a hell. 

She may be the mirror of my dreams. 

A smile reflected in a stream 

She may not be what she may seem 

Inside her shell 

She who always seems so happy in a crowd. 

Whose eyes can be so private and so proud 

No one's allowed to see them when they cry. 

She may be the love that cannot hope to last 

May come to me from shadows of the past. 

That I remember till the day I die

She 

May be the reason I survive 

The why and wherefore I'm alive 

The one I'll care for through the rough and rainy years 

Me I'll take her laughter and her tears 

And make them all my souvenirs 

For where she goes I've got to be 

The meaning of my life is 

She, she, she
