Someone`s Final Song — текст песни (Elton John)

He died when the house was empty
When the maid had gone
He put a pen to paper for one final song
He wrote -
Oh babe, it`s the only way
I know it`s wrong but I can`t stand
To go on living, to go on living, living life this way

And I don`t know what the time is
Or what the next line is
Or how you`re going to take the news
But if I had my life again
I wouldn`t change a thing
I`d let nobody, I`d let nobody
Stand inside my shoes

Something`s gotten hold of me
This home is not the home it used to be
I`ve gathered dust like the dying flowers
And I`ve drunk myself sober
After hours and hours

After hours and hours
