I can't light
no more of your darkness
All my pictures
seem to fade to black and white
I'm growing tired
and time stands still before me
Frozen here
on the ladder of my life
It's much too late
to save myself from falling
I took a chance
and changed your way of life
But you misread
my meaning when I met you
Closed the door
and left me blinded by the light
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself,
it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life
to wander free
But losing everything
is like the sun going down on me
Ladies and Gentlemen Mr. Elton John
I can't find
Oh, the right romantic line
But see me once
and see the way I feel
Don't discard me (baby don't)
Just because you think I mean your harm
(Just because you think I mean your harm, oh)
But these cuts I have, cuts I have
They need love
(They need love, they need love)
to help them heal
Oh, Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself,
it's always someone else I see
I'd just allow a fragment of your life
to wander free
Cause' losing everything
is like the sun going down on me
Don't let the sun go down on me
Although I search myself,
it's always someone else that I see, yeah
I'd just allow a fragment of your life
to wander free baby oh
Cause' losing everything
is like the sun going down on me
Mr. Elton John
(return to top)In living with a fear of chance
The chance of fears the only reason you're awake
We decrease in size when burdened with your mind
But you know escape is to run
In a constant commotion -
When I speak it's revulsion maybe you'll disppear
Recall the past when you were strong
Those distant days, it seems, are now forever gone
You'll increase desire to wander and retire
But you know escape is to run.
