Please

Music by elton john

Lyrics by bernie taupin

Available on the album made in england





We've been crippled in love, short changed, hung out to dry

We've chalked on the walls a slogan or two about life

Stood dazed in the doorway, the king and queen of clowns

We've been flipped like a coin, both of us landing face-down



So please, please, let me grow old with you

After everything we've been through, what's left to prove

So please, please, please, oh please let me grow old with you





We've been living with sorrow, been up, down and all around

We've buried our feelings a little too deep in the ground

Stood dazed in the doorway, the king and queen of clowns

We've been flipped like a coin, both of us landing face-down





But tied to the same track, the two of us look back

At oncoming trains ahead

How many more times can we lay on the line

Watching our love hang by a thread
