lirik lagu elton john & brandi carlile – simple things
[verse 1: 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
[refrain: 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
[pre~chorus: 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)
[chorus: elton john & brandi carlile, elton john]
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
[verse 2: 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
thrown bottles at the wall
when someone forgot to call
i’ve done all the things a wild heart will do
i will do
[refrain: 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
[pre~chorus: 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)
[chorus: 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
[instrumental break]
[chorus: 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
mm~mm
