Your Song
Elton John & Ronan Keating Lyrics

It's a little bit funny this feeling inside
I feel a bit silly expressing this emotion

I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I can't conceal my emotions well

I don't have much money but boy if I did
I don't have a lot of money, but if I did, I would use it to make us happy

I'd buy a big house where we both could live
I'd buy a big house for us to share

If I was a sculptor but then again no
I don't have sculpting skills, and I don't do potions either

Or a man who makes potions in a traveling show
I don't have the skillset to be a travelling potion maker

Oh I know it's not much but it's the best I can do
I know that what I can offer may not seem like much but it's the best I can provide

My gift is my song
My talent is the ability to create music

And this one's for you
This particular song is dedicated to you

And you can tell everybody this is your song
You can tell anyone that this song was created for you

It may be quite simple but now that it's done
The song may be uncomplicated, but it's finally finished

I hope you don't mind
I hope you're not unhappy with my lyrics

That I put down in words
That I expressed in this song

How wonderful life is while you're in the world
Life is extraordinarily better with you in it

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
I had some downtime to kill and so I decided to clean off the roof

Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
A couple of the verses gave me some trouble while I was composing this song

But the sun's been quite kind
But the weather was good while I was writing this song

While I wrote this song
During the process of writing out the lyrics for this song

It's for people like you that keep it turned on
This song is for individuals like you who encourage me to continue creating music

So excuse me forgetting
Please forgive me for forgetting

But these things I do
But despite my shortcomings

You see I've forgotten
I seem to have lost my memory regarding certain things

If they're green or they're blue
For instance, the color of your eyes

Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Regardless, the message I want to convey

Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
Your eyes are the most beautiful I've ever laid eyes on

And you can tell everybody this is your song
You have permission to proclaim this song as yours in the presence of anybody

It may be quite simple but
The song might seem simple but

Now that it's done
It's now finished

I hope you don't mind
I hope you're okay with it

That I put down in words
That I've expressed through writing

How wonderful life is while you're in the world
How much better life is with you in the world
