Simple life

Simple life elton johnmusic by elton john/lyrics by bernie taupinavailable on the album the onethere's a breakdown on the runwayand the timeless flights are gonei'm a year ahead of myself these daysand i'm locomotive strongmy city spread like cannon firein a yellow nervous statei can't cut the ties that bind meto horoscopes and fateand i won't break and i won't bendbut someday soon we'll sail awayto innocence and the bitter endand i won't break and i won't bendand with the last breath we ever takewe're gonna get back to the simple life againwhen we break out of this blindfoldi'm gonna take you from this placeuntil we're free from this ball and chaini'm still hard behind the eightmy city beats like hammered steelon a shallow cruel rockif we could walk proud after midnightwe'd never have to stop
