Romeo's Seance - Elvis Costello, The Brodsky Quartet

Is anyone there I can talk to?

Give us a sign if you’re with me

Can’t you see that I’m dying to hear you

Everyone else has lost interest

And I’m all alone in this dream house

Though you’re gone

I don’t feel like crying

Romeo is calling you

Knock once or twice if you’re out there

Send me a message my sweetheart

When I’m out and about I’ll be coming to see you

It isn’t easy to live with

This matronly face at the window

Try to contact me

If you can see how I’m suffering

Romeo is calling you

Scatter the paper and thimbles

You can take care of the candles

An unplugged radio plays, she is close now

Me and my hand-holding baby

Are walking the floor and the ceiling

And this is the song

She dictated this evening

Romeo is calling

Romeo is calling you
