Elton John - Empty Sky Lyrics
Music by elton johnLyrics by bernie taupinAvailable on the album empty skyIm not a rat to be spat on locked up in this roomThose bars that look towards the sun at night look towards the moonEveryday the swallows play in the clouds of loveMake me wish that I had wings take me high aboveAnd I looked high and saw the empty skyIf I could only, I could only flyId drift with them in endless spaceBut no man flies from this placeAt night I lay upon my bench and stare towards the starsThe cold night air comes creeping in and home seems oh so farIf only I could swing upon those twinkling dots aboveId look down from the heavens upon the ones I loveHey the lucky locket hangs around your precious neckSome luck I ever got with you and I wouldnt like to betThat sooner or later youll own just one half of this landBy shining your eyes on the wealth of every manJust send up my love aint seen nothing but tearsNow Ive got myself in this room for yearsI dont see no one, I never see anyone
