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, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a travelling 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 for people like you that 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

Don´t go breaking my heart
I couldn´t if I tried
Honey if I get restless
Baby you´re not that kind

Don´t go breaking my heart
You take the weight off me
Honey when you knock on my door
I gave you my key

Nobody knows it
When I was down
I was your clown
Nobody knows it
Right from the start
I gave you my heart
I gave you my heart

So don´t go breaking my heart
I won´t go breaking your heart
Don´t go breaking my heart

And nobody told us
`Cause nobody showed us
And now it´s up to us babe
I think we can make it

So don´t misunderstand me
You put the light in my life
You put the sparks to the flame
I´ve got your heart in my sights

Hey kids, shake it loose together
The spotlight´s hitting something
That´s been known to change the weather
We´ll kill the fatted calf tonight
So stick around
You´re gonna hear electric music
Solid walls of sound

Say, Candy and Ronnie, have you seen them yet
But they´re so spaced out, Bennie and the Jets
Oh but they´re weird and they´re wonderful
Oh Bennie she´s really keen
She´s got electric boots a mohair suit
You know I read it in a magazine
Bennie and the Jets

Hey kids, plug into the faithless
Maybe they´re blinded
But Bennie makes them ageless
We shall survive, let us take ourselves along
Where we fight our parents out in the streets
To find who´s right and who´s wrong

When I look back
Boy, must´ve been a dream
Boppin´ in the country
Fishin´ in a stream

Lookin´ for an answer
Trying´ to find a sign
Until I saw your city lights
Honey, I was blind.

They said, get back, Honky Cat
Better get back to the woods
Well, I quit those days and my redneck ways
And oh, oh, oh, oh, the change is gonna do me good

You better get back, Honky Cat
Livin´ in the city ain´t where It´s at
It´s like tryin´ to find gold in a silver mine
It´s like tryin´ to drink whisky from a bottle of wine

Well I read some books and I read some magazines
About those high class ladies
Down in New Orleans
And all the folks back home said I was a fool
They said believe in the Lord
Is the golden rule

They said stay at home, boy, you gotta tend the farm
Livin´ in the city, boy
Is gonna break your heart
But now can you stay when your heart says no
How can you stop
When your feet say go

What have I got to do to make you love me
What have I got to do to make you care
What do I do when lightning strikes me
And I wake to find that you´re not there

What do I do to make you want me
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I say when it´s all over
And sorry seems to be the hardest word

It´s sad, so sad
It´s a sad, sad situation
And it´s getting more and more absurd
It´s sad, so sad
Why can´t we talk it over
Oh it seems to me
That sorry seems to be the hardest word

What do I do to make you love me
What have I got to do to be heard
What do I do when lightning strikes me
What have I got to do
What have I got to do
When sorry seems to be the hardest word

I remember when rock was young
Me and Suzie had so much fun
holding hands and skimming stones
Had an old gold Chevy and a place of my own
But the biggest kick I ever got
was doing a thing called the Crocodile Rock
While the other kids were Rocking Round the Clock
we were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock

Well Crocodile Rocking is something shocking
when your feet just can´t keep still
I never knew me a better time and I guess I never will
Oh Lawdy mama those Friday nights
when Suzie wore her dresses tight
and the Crocodile Rocking was out of sight

But the years went by and the rock just died
Suzie went and left us for some foreign guy
Long nights crying by the record machine
dreaming of my Chevy and my old blue jeans
But they´ll never kill the thrills we´ve got
burning up to the Crocodile Rock
Learning fast as the weeks went past
we really thought the Crocodile Rock would last

An instrumental piece! At the very end, the words

"Life isn´t everything"

are repeated a few times, but that´s it

Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes

They say Spain is pretty though I´ve never been
Well Daniel says it´s the best place that he´s ever seen
Oh and he should know, he´s been there enough
Lord I miss Daniel, oh I miss him so much

Daniel my brother you are older than me
Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won´t heal
Your eyes have died but you see more than I
Daniel you´re a star in the face of the sky

Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
Oh God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes

Part Time Love
Elton John
Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Gary Osborne
Available on the album A Single Man

Part time love is bringing me down
´Cause I just can´t get started with you my love
Did I hear you saying that I´m too hard hearted
Wipe those stars from your eyes
And you´ll get quite a surprise
Because you´ll see everybody´s got a part time love
You´ve been seen running around
There´s not much I don´t hear of and still you try
Telling me all the things I must stay clear of
Don´t tell me what to do
When you been doing it too
Because you, me and everybody´s got a part time love

Falling, I´m falling can´t get free
Baby if you keep on stalling
Oh how can I make you see
That you, me and everybody needs a part time love

Part time love
I seem to be pulling in the wrong direction
With you my love
Whatever I do you raise the same objection
I´ve got someone at home
But she´s got a love of her own
Because you, me and everybody got a part time love

I´m waiting, I´m waiting all the time
And it´s getting so frustrating
Love well it ain´t no crime
Because you, me and everybody needs a part time love
And oh you, me and everybody´s got a part time love
And oh you, me and everybody needs a part time love
You, me, everybody got a part time love

When are you gonna come down
When are you going to land
I should have stayed on the farm
I should have listened to my old man

You know you can´t hold me forever
I didn´t sign up with you
I´m not a present for your friends to open
This boy´s too young to be singing the blues

So goodbye yellow brick road
Where the dogs of society howl
You can´t plant me in your penthouse
I´m going back to my plough

Back to the howling old owl in the woods
Hunting the horny back toad
Oh I´ve finally decided my future lies
Beyond the yellow brick road

What do you think you´ll do then
I bet that´ll shoot down your plane
It´ll take you a couple of vodka and tonics
To set you on your feet again

Maybe you´ll get a replacement
There´s plenty like me to be found
Mongrels who ain´t got a penny
Sniffing for tidbits like you on the ground

Blue eyes babys got blue eyes
Like a deep blue sea
On a blue blue day
Blue eyes, babys got blue eyes
When the morning comes
Ill be far away
And I say

Blue eyes holding back the tears
Holding back the pain
Babys got blue eyes
And shes alone again

Blue eyes babys got blue eyes
Like a clear blue sky
Watching over me
Blue eyes ooh I love blue eyes
When Im by her side
Where I long to be
I will see

Blue eyes laughing in the sun
Laughing in the rain
Babys got blue eyes
And I am home
And I am home again

Blue eyes laughing in the sun
Laughing in the rain
Babys got blue eyes
And I am home again

Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did

Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude

Goodbye Norma Jean
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something as more than sexual
More than just our Marilyn Monroe

I´m Still Standing
Elton John

You could never know what it´s like
Your blood like winter freezes just like ice
And there´s a cold lonely light that shines from you
You´ll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use

And did you think this fool could never win
Well look at me, I´m coming back again
I got a taste of love in a simple way
And if you need to know while I´m still standing you just fade away

Don´t you know I´m still standing better than I ever did
Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid
I´m still standing after all this time
Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind

I´m still standing yeah yeah yeah
I´m still standing yeah yeah yeah

Once I never could hope to win
You starting down the road leaving me again
The threats you made were meant to cut me down
And if our love was just a circus you´d be a clown by now

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

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

I can´t find, oh the right romantic line
But see me once and see the way I feel
Don´t discard me just because you think I mean you harm
But these cuts I have they need love to help them heal

Kiss The Bride
Elton John
Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin

Well she looked a peach in the dress she made
When she was still her mama´s little girl
And when she walked down the aisle everybody smiled
At her innocence and curls
And when the preacher said is there anyone here
Got a reason why they shouldn´t wed
I should have stuck up my hand
I should have got up to stand
And this is what I should have said

I wanna kiss the bride yeah!
I wanna kiss the bride yeah!
Long before she met him
She was mine, mine, mine
Don´t say I do
Say bye, bye, bye
And let me kiss the bride yeah!


Underneath her veil I could see a tear
Trickling down her pretty face
And when she slipped on the ring I knew everything
Would never be the same again
But if the groom would have known he´d have had a fit
About his wife and the things we did
And what I planned to say
Yeah on her wedding day
Well I thought it but I kept it hid

Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
Elton John
Written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney
Released as a UK single in November, 1974

Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes

Cellophane flowers of yellow and green
Towering over your head
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes
And she´s gone

Lucy in the sky with diamonds

Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers
That grow so incredibly high

Newspaper taxis appear on the shore
Waiting to take you away
Climb in the back with you head in the clouds
And you´re gone

Lucy in the sky with diamonds

Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile
The girl with kaleidoscope eyes

Guess there are times when we all need to share a little pain
And ironing out the rough spots
Is the hardest part when memories remain
And it´s times like these when we all need to hear the radio
`Cause from the lips of some old singer
We can share the troubles we already know

Turn them on, turn them on
Turn on those sad songs
When all hope is gone
Why don´t you tune in and turn them on

They reach into your room
Just feel their gentle touch
When all hope is gone
Sad songs say so much

If someone else is suffering enough to write it down
When every single word makes sense
Then it´s easier to have those songs around
The kick inside is in the line that finally gets to you
and it feels so good to hurt so bad
And suffer just enough to sing the blues

Sad songs, they say
Sad songs, they say
Sad songs, they say
Sad songs, they say so much

I used to be a rolling stone
You know if the cause was right
I´d leave to find the answer on the road
I used to be a heart beating for someone
But the times have changed
The less I say the more my work gets done

`Cause I live and breathe this Philadelphia freedom
From the day that I was born I´ve waved the flag
Philadelphia freedom took me knee-high to a man
Yeah gave me peace of mind my daddy never had

Oh Philadelphia freedom shine on me, I love you
Shine a light through the eyes of the ones left behind
Shine a light shine a light
Shine a light won´t you shine a light
Philadelphia freedom I love you, yes I do

If you choose to you can live your life alone
Some people choose the city
Some others choose the good old family home
I like living easy without family ties
Till the whippoorwill of freedom zapped me
Right between the eyes

Deny the passenger, who want to get on
Deny the passenger, who want to get on
Deny the passenger, who want to get on
Want to get on
He want to get on
Want to get on
He want to get on

To make a chain of fools
You need a matching pair
One hypocritical fool
And a crowd that´s never there
There´s anger in the silence
There´s wheels upon the jail
A black train built of bones
On a copper rail

Company conductor
You need the salt of tears
Falling on a ticket
That no one´s used in years
Non-commercial native
It´s tattooed in your veins
You´re living in a blood bank
And riding on this train

The spirit´s free, but you always find
Passengers stand and wait in line
Someone in front and someone else behind
But passengers always wait in line

When I think of those East End lights
Muggy nights,
The curtains drawn in the little room downsairs.
Prima Donna lord you really should have been there,
Sitting like a princess perched in her electric chair.
And it´s one more beer,
And I don´t hear you anymore.
We´ve all gone crazy lately,
My friend´s out there rolling,
Round the basement floor.

(Chorus)
And someone saved my life tonight,
sugar bear.
You almost had your hooks in me
Didn´t you dear
You nearly had me roped and tied,
Alter-bound, hypnotized,
Sweet freedom whispered in my ear
You´re a butterfly,
And butterflies are free to fly,
Fly away, high away bye bye.

I never realized the passing hours
Of evening showers,
A slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams.
I´m strangled by your haunted social scene
Just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen.
It´s four-o-clock in the morning
D*mn it!
Listen to me good.
I´m sleeping with myself tonight
Saved in time, thank God my music is still alive.

Chorus

And I would have walked head on
Into the deep end of the river,
Clinging to your stocks and bonds
Paying your H.P. demands forever.
They´re coming in the morning
With a truck to take me home

Someone saved my life tonight
Someone saved my life tonight
Someone saved my life tonight
Someone saved my life tonight
Someone saved my life tonight
So save your strength
And run the field you play alone.

Chorus

Someone saved my life tonight
Someone saved my life tonight
Someone saved my life tonight
Someone saved my life tonight
Someone saved my life tonight

Hey Nikita is it cold
In your little corner of the world
You could roll around the world
And never find a warmer soul to know

Oh I saw you by the wall
Ten of your tin soldiers in a row
With eyes that looked like ice on fire
The human heart a captive in the snow

Oh Nikita You will never know anything about my home
I´ll never know how good it feels to hold you
Nikita I need you so
Oh Nikita is the other side of any given line in time
Counting ten tin soldiers in a row
Oh no, Nikita you´ll never know

Do you ever dream of me
Do you ever see the letters that I write
When you look up through the wire
Nikita do you count the stars at night

And if there comes a time
Guns and gates no longer hold you in
And if you´re free to make a choice
Just look towards the west and find a friend

Nik Kershaw
I want to be good, I want to be strong
But I treated him bad, I´ve done him wrong
I´ve taken his money, I´m given him hell
And he takes it all ´cause he knows me well
We can say what we mean and mean what we say
We don´t like to mess around
But we´re there to hold each other up
When we´re falling down
Just like an old friend
Putting me on my feet again
Giving me back my pride then
Letting me go
Just like an old friend
Putting me in my place again
Giving me back my hope then
Letting me know that he´s an old friend
I don´t suffer no fools *I testify*
But he must be one for being by my side
I´ve broken his heart
I´ve shaken his tree
But still he doesn´t want anything from a fool like me
We won´t talk for a year or two
Maybe when we do we won´t say much
Even so we know that out of mind is never out of touch
We´re having a man-to-man
Don´t want to get sentimental
But both of us understand
We´ll never have to say goodbye, just see you later

I Don´t Wanna Go On With You Like That
Elton John
(Elton John/Bernie Taupin)

I´ve always said that one´s enough to love
Now I hear you´re bragging one is not enough
Something tells me you´re not satisfied
You got plans to make me one of four or five

I guess this kind of thing´s just in your blood
But you won´t catch me carving up my love
I ain´t no puzzle piece that needs to fit
If it takes more than me let´s call it quits

´Cause I don´t wanna go on with you like that
Don´t wanna be a feather in your cap
I just wanna tell you honey I ain´t mad
But I don´t wanna go on with you like that

It gets so hard sometimes to understand
This vicious circle´s getting out of hand
Don´t need an extra eye to see
That the fire spreads faster in a breeze

And I don´t wanna go on with you like that
Don´t wanna be a feather in your cap
I just wanna tell you honey I ain´t mad
But I don´t wanna go on with you like that
No I don´t wanna go on with you like that
One more set of boots on your welcome mat
You´ll just have to quit them if you want me back
´Cause I don´t wanna go on with you like that

Oh if you wanna spread it around sister that´s just fine
But I don´t want no second hand feeding me lines
If you wanna hold someone in the middle of the night
Call out the guards, turn out the light

I was justified when I was five
Raising cane, I spit in your eye
Times are changing, now the poor get fat
But the fever´s gonna catch you when the bitch gets back

Eat meat on Friday that´s alright
Even like steak on a Saturday night
I can bitch the best at your social do´s
I get high in the evening sniffing pots of glue

I´m a bitch, I´m a bitch
Oh the bitch is back
Stone cold sober as a matter of fact
I can bitch, I can bitch
`Cause I´m better than you
It´s the way that I move
The things that I do

I entertain by picking brains
Sell my soul by dropping names
I don´t like those, my God, what´s that
Oh it´s full of nasty habits when the bitch gets back

It´s a human sign
When things go wrong
When the scent of her lingers
And temptation´s strong

Into the boundary
Of each married man
Sweet deceit comes calling
And negativity lands

Cold cold heart
Hard done by you
Some things look better baby
Just passing through

And it´s no sacrifice
Just a simple word
It´s two hearts living
In two separate worlds
But it´s no sacrifice
No sacrifice
It´s no sacrifice at all

Mutual misunderstanding
After the fact
Sensitivity builds a prison
In the final act

We lose direction
No stone unturned
No tears to damn you
When jealousy burns

Every time you turn around
You wear another face
Every time I look away
I find a hiding place

If you knew me like you knew him
You would know just how I feel
Slipping through someone´s fingers
Falling under someone´s wheels

It´s easier to walk away
Better off to face the facts
When love holds you up for ransom
Walk away and don´t look back

Never seen you looking back through
Smiling eyes and tears
Never knew you holding on to
Memories and fears

Just release me I can´t take it
Can´t you see a change has come
Strangled by infatuation
Buried under someone´s thumb

It´s easier to walk away
Cover and fade to black
When love scars and leaves you branded
Walk away and don´t look back

Every time you turn around
You wear another face
Every time I look away
I find a hiding place

You can win the fight, you can grab a piece of the sky
You can break the rules but before you try
You gotta love someone
You gotta love someone

You can stop the world, steal the face from the moon
You can beat the clock, but before high noon
You gotta love someone
You gotta love someone

You´ve got one life with a reason
You need two hearts on one side
When you stand alone and there´s no one there
To share the way it feels inside and baby

You can cheat the devil and slice a piece of the sun
Burn up the highway but before you run
You gotta love someone
You gotta love someone

When you´re gonna play with fire
You let someone share the heat
When you´re on your own and there´s no one there
To cool the flames beneath your feet and baby

You can win the fight, you can grab a piece of the sky
You can break the rules but before you try
You gotta love someone
You gotta love someone

You gotta love someone
You gotta love someone
