Simple Things

Simple Things

(Album: The Lockdown Sessions - 2021)

[Elton John:]
As an old man, I'm a young man
'Cause I've not been old for long
And before these trembling waters settle
I'll have flown the pond
So I don't mean to be morbid
Or a bit too on the nose
But I'd like to share a few things
That I've learned along the road

[Elton John & Brandi Carlile:]
What you'll find chasing dreams
Is the finish line recedes
And a riddle stays a riddle
Oh, the humor's bittersweet

[Elton John & Brandi Carlile (Elton John):]
All nature does is dance
So when you dance, you're in accord
Look no further than the feeling
That it gives you for reward
(Reward reward)
Reward
(Reward reward)

Simple things
Hard to learn
Fire is hot
Burn, burn, burn
Simple truth
Hard to see
Not what you want
But what you need
What you need
(Mm-mm)

[Brandi Carlile:]
I've been a sleepwalker, a cheap talker
A sly grin, a discreet offer
I've held steady for a gaze
I've led a lover through a maze
I've thrown bottles at the wall
When someone forgot to call
I've done all the things a wild heart will do
I will do

[Elton John (Elton John & Brandi Carlile):]
What you'll find chasing dreams
Is the finish line recedes
(And the riddle stays a riddle)
(Oh, the humor's bittersweet)

[Elton John & Brandi Carlile (Elton John):]
All nature does is dance
So when you dance, you're in accord
Look no further than the feeling
That it gives you for reward
(Reward reward)
Reward
(Reward reward)

[Elton John & Brandi Carlile:]
Simple things
Hard to learn
Fire is hot
Burn, burn, burn
Simple truth
Hard to see
Not what you want
But what you need

Simple things
Hard to learn
Fire is hot
Burn, burn, burn
Simple truth
Hard to see
Not what you want
But what you need
Mm-mm
