ELTON JOHN - The Wide-eyed & Laughing lyrics

rate me

Music by elton john, caleb quaye, james newton-howard and davey johnstone<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album blue moves<br><br>Are you still in control of the boat that you row<br>Or do you still cling to me when it's sinking<br>I never condemned you, I only consoled you<br>When candlelight made me a king<br><br>For the wide-eyed and laughing<br>Passed like a season<br>Erasing a passion to sin<br>For no one knew better than the tealeaves and the tarots<br>That the wide-eyed and laughing<br>Were just one step ahead of the wind<br><br>And the hearts that you played on the porch swing for me<br>Was a song that I'd heard in the past<br>For I had an audience somewhere inside you<br>That applauded whenever you laughed<br><br>Gone is a word that I now rarely use<br>Though sometime in the course of a day<br>I go racing back like a man possessed<br>By the wide-eyed and laughing daughters of some different age
