Elton John

Songwriter: Bernie Taupin Elton John

[Verse 1]
It's getting dark in here
Don't want to leave
Shadow's falling
And I believe
Winds picking up
Thing's so unclear
I'm afraid of my shadow
And it's getting dark in here
I'm scared of strangers
On the street
World's so ugly
I can't breath
Moon's so spooky
I'm close to tears
I've lost it all
And it's getting dark in here

[Chorus]
And the wait isn't worth what i'm getting
Sometimes i feel i'm on fire
I've been handed a curse and a blessing
My life's been stripped down to the wire
And i'm trying to get back and hold on
Find someone somewhere who cares
But the sun's always setting on my life
And it's sure getting dark in here

[Verse 2]
Don't talk about angels
Or how i'll be saved
I'm no coward
But i'm not that brave
Rags are blowing
Rain's getting near
I'm done with running
And it's getting dark in here

[Chorus][x2]

[Outro]
Yeah, the sun's always setting on my life
And it's sure getting dark in here
