elton john--weight of the world |
[00:25.30] |
i'm weary and i'm staying up late |
[00:28.62] |
and the rain hits my roof so hard |
[00:32.65] |
you know i'm no longer thirty |
[00:35.27] |
these days i'm happy to play |
[00:38.31] |
one or two hands of cards |
[00:43.81] |
i hate flies in the kitchen buzzing |
[00:47.67] |
disturbing the peace i've found |
[00:51.59] |
fortune and fame is so fleeting |
[00:54.11] |
these days i'm happy to say |
[00:56.69] |
i'm amazed that i'm still around |
[00:59.84] |
|
[01:02.26] |
and the weight of the world is off my back |
[01:06.09] |
when we fell, we got up |
[01:07.66] |
and crawled out the cracks |
[01:10.01] |
excuse me if i take some comfort in that |
[01:13.89] |
happy today, happy to play |
[01:21.03] |
with the weight of the world off of my back |
[01:27.01] |
|
[01:28.68] |
humidity hangs like a curtain |
[01:32.06] |
oh, it fogs up my glasses sometimes |
[01:36.15] |
you know i've still got my eyesight |
[01:38.64] |
these days i'm happy to see |
[01:41.75] |
a sunset instead of a line |
[01:44.56] |
|
[01:47.11] |
and the weight of the world is off my back |
[01:50.84] |
when we fell, we got up |
[01:52.44] |
and crawled out the cracks |
[01:54.88] |
excuse me if i take some comfort in that |
[01:58.65] |
happy today, happy to play |
[02:05.84] |
with the weight of the world off of my back |
[02:11.39] |
|
[02:13.31] |
there's a long list of names |
[02:15.12] |
that i don't recall |
[02:17.15] |
even though my memory's good |
[02:20.95] |
the rain washed away |
[02:22.83] |
the lemons and weeds |
[02:24.47] |
when the weight of the world weighed more than it should |
[02:31.72] |
|
[02:51.78] |
i hate flies in the kitchen buzzing |
[02:54.65] |
disturbing the peace i've found |
[02:58.40] |
fortune and fame is so fleeting |
[03:00.83] |
these days i'm happy to say |
[03:03.61] |
i'm amazed that i'm still around |
[03:09.33] |
and the weight of the world is off my back |
[03:12.92] |
when we fell, we got up |
[03:14.60] |
and crawled out the cracks |
[03:17.00] |
excuse me if i take some comfort in that |
[03:20.53] |
happy today, happy to play |
[03:27.86] |
with the weight of the world off of my back |
[03:33.52] |
|
[03:35.72] |
happy today, happy to play |
[03:42.77] |
with the weight of the world off of my back |
