The Big Picture Lyrics - 1997

[ Buy The Big Picture ]

Music by elton john
Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album the big picture

It's written clear across the room
In silent words the blind could understand
I came here to relax and find
A sleep that soaks me up like surf and sand

And you appear as i descend
A soft outline all poised and feather light
I come into the darkness now
To conjure up a dream and close my eyes


Don't disturb me if you dare
Join me if you have the nerve
I'll show you where the best of me has been
Behind my eyes i'll wait for you
Imagine just what we could do
Come join me in my wicked dream


Don't send me back to real life
The daily grind just leaves me feeling numb
Leave me in my wicked dream
Where pressure cracks and beauty comes undone
