Elton John - Your song

 

 

En sång som jag har älskat i många år, är den Elton Johan gjorde melodin till och framförde 1970. Bernie Taupin skrev denna vackra text. Det är en blandning av soul, folkmusik och jazz, i refrängen kan man ana toner av r&b rytmer. Denna låt var B-låten på singeln Take me to the pilot. Låten blev så populär och favorit hos många att det blev en hel skiva med denna låt som titel för skivan.  

 

YOUR SONG.....

 

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

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 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

If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a girl 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
