Elton John

Elton John - Eight Hundred Dollar Shoes songtekst

Je score:




You had your grand illusion 

And wrestled with your fate 



The winter of your discontent 

Came twenty years too late 



If it was love, and I was there 

I've forgotten where it lives 



We both stepped off a frozen rock 

Onto a burning bridge 



You came like an invasion 

All bells and whistles blowing 



Reaping the rewards 

Of the fable you'd been sowing 



I saw you cross the landing 

Descending marble stairs 



Like Caesar crossed the Rubicon 

You seemed to walk on air 



And yeah I've seen your movie 

And I read it in your book 

The truth just flew off every page 

Your songs have all the hooks 



You're seven wonders rolled in one 

You've shifted gears to cruise 



Oh you came to town in Helas!(?) 

And eight hundred dollar shoes 



Oh the bellboys are crying 

And monies changing hands 



Your cloak and dagger legacies 

Gone home to No Man's Land 



The marquee lights are flickering 

Your posters fading fast 



Your being here just melts away 

Like ice cubes in a glass 



And yeah I've seen your movie 

And I read it in your book 

The truth just flew off every page 

Your songs have all the hooks 



You're seven wonders rolled in one 

You've shifted gears to cruise 

Oh you came to town in Helas!(?) 

And eight hundred dollar shoes 



Oh you came to town in Helas!(?) 

And eight hundred dollar shoes
