ELTON JOHN lyrics : "Someone Saved My Life Tonight"

When I think of those East End lights, muggy nights
The curtains drawn in the little room downstairs
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 friends out there rolling round the ba!@&(t floor

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
Altar-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
Damn it listen to me good
I'm sleeping with myself tonight

Saved in time, thank God my music's still alive

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
