1. _ Circle Of Life
Music by elton john
Lyrics by tim rice
Available on the soundtrack the lion king
From the day we arrive on the planet
And blinking, step into the sun
There's more to be seen than can ever be seen
More to do than can ever be done
Some say eat or be eaten
Some say live and let live
But all are agreed as they join the stampede
You should never take more than you give
In the circle of life
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the leap of faith
It's the band of hope
Till we find our place
On the path unwinding
In the circle, the circle of life
Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with the scars
There's far too much to take in here
More to find than can ever be found
But the sun rolling high through the sapphire sky
Keeps great and small on the endless round

2. _ Daniel
Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album don't shoot me i'm only the piano player
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

3. _ Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me
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 feel
Don't discard me baby don't
Just because you think i mean you harm
Just because you think i mean you 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 i that 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

4. _ Someone Saved My Life Tonight
Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album captain fantastic and the brown dirt cowboy
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 basement 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 realised 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

5. _ Blue Eyes
Music by elton john
Lyrics by gary osborne
Available on the album jump up
Blue eyes
Baby's got blue eyes
Like a deep blue sea
On a blue blue day
Blue eyes
Baby's got blue eyes
When the morning comes
I'll be far away
And i say
Blue eyes
Holding back the tears
Holding back the pain
Baby's got blue eyes
And she's alone again
Blue eyes
Baby's got blue eyes
Like a clear blue sky
Watching over me
Blue eyes
I love blue eyes
When i'm by her side
Where i long to be
I will see
Blue eyes laughing in the sun
Laughing in the rain
Baby's got blue eyes
And i am home, and i am home again

6. _ Believe
Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album made in england
I believe in love, it's all we got
Love has no boundaries, costs nothing to touch
War makes money, cancer sleeps
Curled up in my father and that means something to me
Churches and dictators, politics and papers
Everything crumbles sooner or later
But love, i believe in love
I believe in love, it's all we got
Love has no boundaries, no borders to cross
Love is simple, hate breeds
Those who think difference is the child of disease
Father and son make love and guns
Families together kill someone
Without love, i believe in love
Without love i wouldn't believe
In anything that lives and breathes
Without love i'd have no anger
I wouldn't believe in the right to stand here
Without love i wouldn't believe
I couldn't believe in you
And i wouldn't believe in me
Without love
I believe in love
I believe in love
I believe in love

7. _ Blessed
Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album made in england
Hey you, you're a child in my head
You haven't walked yet
Your first words have yet to be said
But i swear you'll be blessed
I know you're still just a dream
Your eyes might be green
Or the bluest that i've ever seen
Anyway you'll be blessed
And you, you'll be blessed
You'll have the best
I promise you that
I'll pick a star from the sky
Pull your name from a hat
I promise you that, promise you that, promise you that
You'll be blessed
I need you before i'm too old
To have and to hold
To walk with you and watch you grow
And know that you're blessed

8. _ Sacrifice
Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album sleeping with the past
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

9. _ 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
If i was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man who makes potions in a traveling 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

10. _ No Valentines
Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the 1996 us album love songs
No more valentine's day
No more christmas cards
I've thrown them all away
No more sequined stars
No birthday wishes
No more surprises
Who needs them anyway
No reason to get excited
Yes i gave you everything
I gave you earth and sky
And everything in between
That walks or crawls or flies
No easter mornings
It's your cross now
Keep it all for yourself
It's overrated anyhow
But keep my valentine
I'll keep my bleeding heart
Just let me out of here
Before that sentimental music starts
And your regrets
Fall like empty lines
Like the lies we write on valentines

11. _ Can You Feel The Love Tonight
Music by elton john
Lyrics by tim rice
Available on the soundtrack the lion king
There's a calm surrender to the rush of day
When the heat of a rolling wind can be turned away
An enchanted moment, and it sees me through
It's enough for this restless warrior just to be with you
And can you feel the love tonight
It is where we are
It's enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
That we got this far
And can you feel the love tonight
How it's laid to rest
It's enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best
There's a time for everyone if they only learn
That the twisting kaleidoscope moves us all in turn
There's a rhyme and reason to the wild outdoors
When the heart of this star-crossed voyager beats in time with yours

12. _ You Can Make History (young Again)
Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the 1996 us album love songs
I can feel the time closing in
I can feel the years crawling through my skin
And if i doubt myself i can count on the rain
To cover the tears of this aging game
But i can count on you to play your part
I don't miss a beat of your animal heart
And when you push from behind i know i can
Cover a mountain with the palm of my hand
And oh babe, you can make history young again
You could rewrite, you could decide
The things that should or shouldn't have been
You could look at me in the scheme of things
Oh babe, you could make history young again
I can watch the weeks sweeping by
I can recollect the hearts hanging out to dry
When the world shuts down i can touch my fears
I can hear lost youth ringing in my ears
But i lost nothing when i gained you
You just blew me away with yesterdays news
When you run your fingers down my spine
It's like throwing a switch on the hands of time
Ancient minds, ancient lives
Got a way of coming around
If i knew then what i know now
I'd make it back to you somehow

13. _ Candle In The Wind
Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album goodbye yellow brick road
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 never 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

14. _ Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word
Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album blue moves
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
