Elton John - My Elusive Drug Lyrics
Lyrics by Bernie TaupinI'm not the same as I used to beAll the things you've heard seem hard to believeHaven't always been good, never really been badMost times I've been happy, yea sometimes I've been sadSure I've made mistakes, haven't we allI've been loose as a cannon and dumb as a wallHaven't always been sober in counting my ducksAnd if I look back now I've had my share of luckBut the change didn't come over nightI've been searching for you all my lifeAll the habits that I couldn't handleI've swept them under the rugIn exchange for the sweetest addictionYou, my elusive drugI'm going to stay now, I really like it hereI may paint your picture, and I might grow a beardThere were times I was crazy couldn't handle my lifeDon't think you'd have liked me not at any old priceBut the change didn't come over nightI've been searching for you all my lifeAll the habits that I couldn't handleI've swept them under the rugIn exchange for the sweetest addictionYou, my elusive drugAnd I've taken the pillsI got burnt out and chilled by the coldBut I've no regrets and that being saidYou know cheap thrills can get pretty oldYeah, Yeah, oh YeahBut the change didn't come over nightI've been searching for you all my lifeAll the habits that I couldn't handleI've swept them under the rugIn exchange for the sweetest addictionYou, my elusive drugIn exchange for the sweetest addictionYou, my elusive drug
