Elton John - Voyeur lyrics
[Elton John - Voyeur lyrics]
I'm looking, I'm looking back
I'm trying to imagine this and that
The simple mathematics making up the map
Insurance of protection from
Immediate collapse
I'm watching, I'm watching you
A voyeur from a different point of view
The solitary eyes that I've
Been looking through
Committed to connecting the old
Ways to the new and I see things
Through a curtain blowing back
Against the rain through the crack in a door
That heaves with pain
And through every gap that gives away
Some secret in the dark
I'll come away with something
To keep you in my heart
I'm searching, I'm setting out
To prove without a shadow of a doubt
The age-old contradiction that's
Hovering about a whisper in the darkness
Holds more truth than a shout
I'm waiting, I'm waiting for
Telltale footsteps on the bedroom floor
A broken hearted lover simply looking for
Relief that's temporary from her
Dirty little war and I see things
From the ceilings of a hundred hotel rooms
From a satellite that's bouncing off the moon
And from every telescope
That's focused in on someplace dark
I'll come away with something to
Keep you in my heart yes I see things
From the highest branch that
Looks directly in
Through a hawk's eyes gliding
Silent on the wind
And in every secret rendezvous
Where illicit lovers park
I'll come away with something to
Keep you in my heart
I'm trying to imagine this and that
The simple mathematics making up the map
Insurance of protection from
Immediate collapse
I'm watching, I'm watching you
A voyeur from a different point of view
The solitary eyes that I've
Been looking through
Committed to connecting the old
Ways to the new and I see things
Through a curtain blowing back
Against the rain through the crack in a door
That heaves with pain
And through every gap that gives away
Some secret in the dark
I'll come away with something
To keep you in my heart
I'm searching, I'm setting out
To prove without a shadow of a doubt
The age-old contradiction that's
Hovering about a whisper in the darkness
Holds more truth than a shout
I'm waiting, I'm waiting for
Telltale footsteps on the bedroom floor
A broken hearted lover simply looking for
Relief that's temporary from her
Dirty little war and I see things
From the ceilings of a hundred hotel rooms
From a satellite that's bouncing off the moon
And from every telescope
That's focused in on someplace dark
I'll come away with something to
Keep you in my heart yes I see things
From the highest branch that
Looks directly in
Through a hawk's eyes gliding
Silent on the wind
And in every secret rendezvous
Where illicit lovers park
I'll come away with something to
Keep you in my heart
