Elton's Song

Staring all alone

And your grace and style

Cut me to the bone

With your razor blade smile

I watched you playing pool

It's all around the school that I love you

I love your gypsy hair

And dark brown eyes

Always unprepared

For your pointed replies

Cynical and lean

I lie awake and dream about you

If you only knew

What I'm going through

Time and again I get ashamed

To say your name

It's hard to grin and bear

When you're standing there

My lips are dry

I catch your eye and look away

Sitting in my room

I've got it bad

Crying for the moon

They think I'm mad

They say it isn't real

But I know what I feel and I love you

But I would give my life

For a single night beside you
