  • Recover Your Soul

    Music by Elton John Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
    Available on the album The Big Picture

    Baby you’re missing something in the air
    I got a name but it don’t matter
    What’s going on, it’s cold in here
    You have a life but it’s torn and tattered

    Maybe you’re losing pieces of your heart
    You have a world but it stopped turning
    You lose the day and gain the dark
    Love was a fire but it stopped burning

    Spare your heart, save your soul
    Don’t drag your love across the coals
    Find your feet and your fortune can be told
    Release, relax, let go
    And hey now let’s recover your soul

    Lazy old sunset sinking like a tear
    Alone at night in a losing battle
    That perfect world is never clear
    You have to fight for the things that matter

    Spare your heart, save your soul
    Don’t drag your love across the coals
    Find your feet and your fortune can be told
    Release, relax, let go
    And hey now let’s recover your soul

  • If the River Can Bend

    Music by Elton John Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
    Available on the album The Big Picture

    I don’t know what to say
    I don’t know where the light shines
    It’s a grey dawn rising on a green hill
    And there’s so much behind us

    I don’t know where we go
    I sure feel there’s something out there
    There’s a great awakening and a new morning
    And your spirit’s pounding loud and clear

    If the river can bend
    I’ll find you waiting
    Home at last from the wild sea
    All the twists and turns
    We’ve made together
    All the boats you rocked
    With your harmony
    If the river can bend
    If the river can bend
    If the river can bend
    If the river can bend

    Come and embrace the struggle
    But win or lose we live here
    Build a new beginning on an old rock
    Breathe deep of the sweet fresh air
