i need you to turn to
Elton john & bernie taupin
You’re not a ship to carry my life
You are nailed to my love in many lonely nights.
I’ve strayed from the cottages and found myself here
For i need your love, your love protests my fears.
And i wonder sometimes and i know i’m unkind
But i need you to turn to when i act so blind
And i need you to turn to when i lose control
You’re my guardian angel who keeps out the cold.
Did you paint your smile on? well, i said i knew
That my reason for living was for loving you.
We’re related in feeling but you’re high above
You’re pure and you’re gentle with the grace of a dove.
