Tell Tale Signs                         Jerry Lee Lewis [Verse 1] Why do you pour the cream and sugar in my coffee About these cigarettes  I don’t believe they’re mine that I’ll be standing in the shadow of a stranger more and more I see these scatters tell tale signs [Verse 2] There were teardrops on your pillow again this morning woman but your problem girl is someone on your mind I’m afraid to come home early without warning more and more I see these scatters tell tale signs [Chorus] Someone else beside myself knows the direction to the sweetest thing that once was mine alone somebody else holds the key to my possession Lord I lost the only treasure I’ve ever known [Verse 3] The telephone is ringing I’ll get it darling but I know there’ll be no answer on the line just the presence of a silent total stranger cos’ more and more I see these scatters tell tale signs yes more and more I see these scatters tell tale signs

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque une profonde tristesse face à une relation en déclin. Le narrateur ressent la présence d'une personne étrangère dans sa vie, surtout à travers des indices qui révèlent une trahison. Il constate des signes tangibles de l'éloignement de sa partenaire, comme des larmes sur l'oreiller et l'absence de communication. L'idée que quelqu'un d'autre partage une connexion privilégiée avec elle lui pèse, et il se sent de plus en plus dépossédé de l'amour qu'il pensait avoir. Cette mélancolie, accentuée par la solitude, souligne la douleur de perdre l'unique trésor qu'il avait.
