Elton john & bernie taupin
Youre not a ship to carry my life
You are nailed to my love in many lonely nights.
Ive strayed from the cottages and found myself here
For I need your love, your love protests my fears.
And I wonder sometimes and I know Im unkind
But I need you to turn to when I act so blind
And I need you to turn to when I lose control
Youre my guardian angel who keeps out the cold.
Did you paint your smile on? well, I said I knew
That my reason for living was for loving you.
Were related in feeling but youre high above
Youre pure and youre gentle with the grace of a dove.
