Elton John - Elaborate Lives Lyrics
Music by elton johnLyrics by tim riceEltons solo version is unreleasedWe all lead such elaborate livesWild ambitions in our sightsHow an affair of the heart survivesDays apart and hurried nightsSeems quite unbelievable to meI dont want to live like thatSeems quite unbelievable to meI dont want to love like thatI just want our time to be slower and gentler, wiser, freeWe all live in extravagant timesPlaying games we cant all winUnintended emotional crimesTake some out, take others inIm so tired of all were going throughI dont want to live like thatIm so tired of all were going throughI dont want to love like thatI just want to be with you now and forever, peaceful, trueI wish I had the courageTo tell you face to faceBut I could wait foreverFor the perfect time and placeWe all live such elaborate livesWe dont know whose words are trueStrangers, lovers, husbands, wivesHard to know whose loving whoToo many choices tear us apartI dont want to live like thatToo many choices tear us apartI dont want to love like thatI just want to touch your heart, may this confession be the start
