Elton John: Your Song Lyrics
It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide, I
Don't have much money but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

If I was a sculptor, heh... but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show, I
Know it's not much but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song and this one's for you

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words...
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses, well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind, while I wrote this song
It's put people like you there, to keep it turned on

So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
You see I've forgotten if they're green, or they're blue
Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

And you can tell everybody that this is your song
It may be quite simple but now that its done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words...
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind
That I put down in words...
How wonderful life is while you're in the world

Your Song: Shaping Sir Elton

The release of album Elton John and single “Your Song” put Elton John on the map in America, and soon Elton John tickets and albums could not be kept in stock.
