Music by elton johnLyrics by bernie taupinNever releasedIce thaws the sun when autumn comesAnd bristol trips and bugy rides are overAnd the nucleus of everyone has disappearedAs winter holds my shoulderSo put on your make-upMake up to me nowKick off your sand-shoesThrow them in the sea nowIt’s the season of the rainYou wear your big hatI’ll wear my check capThrow up your string bagsInto the old trapIt’s the season of the rainAnd I gotta get homeI wanna go home againCastles in the countrySee the maids of airRambling fires and canopies contain usAnd the waters of the countrysideWash away our caresLeave the city lights behind us
