A música Your Song, escrita por Elton John e Bernie Taupin, foi composta numa manhã de café da manhã em casa dos pais de Elton em 1967. Taupin escreveu a letra após o café da manhã e Elton compôs a melodia em apenas 20 minutos. É uma das músicas mais aclamadas da dupla, conhecida pela sua simplicidade melódica e sinceridade emocional.
It's a little bit funny this feeling inside I'm not one of those who can easily hide I don't have much money but, boy if I did I'd buy a big house where we both could live
So excuse me forgetting but, these things I do You see I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue Anyway the thing is what I really mean Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen
And you can tell everybody this is your song It may be quite simple but now that it's done I hope you don't mind I hope you don't mind that I put down in words How wonderful life is now you're in the world
If I was a sculptor, but then again no Or a girl who makes potions in a traveling show I know it's not much but it's the best I can do My gift is my song and this one's for you
And you can tell everybody this is your song It may be quite simple but now that it's done I hope you don't mind I hope you don't mind that I put down in words How wonderful life is now you're in the world
