Elton John - Grey Seal (Remastered 2014)(1973)

[00:22.97] Why's it never light on my lawn
[00:25.98] Why does it rain
[00:26.91] And never say good-day to the new-born
[00:31.98] On the big screen they showed us the sun
[00:35.20] But not as bright in life as the real one
[00:39.35] It's never quite the same as the real one
[00:46.24] And tell me grey seal
[00:49.76] How does it feel
[00:51.17] To be so wise
[00:53.77] To see through eyes
[00:56.54] That only see what's real
[01:00.97] Tell me grey seal
[01:15.37] I never learned why meteors were formed
[01:18.69] I only farmed in schools
[01:20.54] That were so warn and torn
[01:24.94] If anyone can cry then so can I
[01:28.08] I read books and draw life from the eye
[01:32.07] All my life is drawings from the eye
[01:40.02] And tell me grey seal
[01:42.18] How does it feel
[01:43.93] To be so wise
[01:47.16] To see through eyes
[01:48.91] That only see what's real
[01:53.48] Tell me grey seal
[02:07.54] Your mission bells were wrought by ancient men
[02:10.96] The roots were formed by twisted roots
[02:12.86] Your roots were twisted then
[02:17.02] I was re-born before all life could die
[02:20.60] The Phoenix bird will leave this world to fly
[02:24.24] If the Phoenix bird can fly then so can I
[02:31.32] And tell me grey seal
[02:34.17] How does it feel to be so wise?
[02:39.03] To see through eyes that only see what's real
[02:45.94] Tell me, grey seal
[02:52.84]
