Three Day Lyrics Challenge : Day 2

For the second day of this challenge I’ve decided to share a really special song that may be a blast from the past but it’s definitely one of its kind. The first time I heard it was in the movie called ‘Moulin Rouge’ where the young & handsome Ewan McGregor sings it for the lovely Nicole Kidman. What’s most captivating about this timeless song is the lyrics.

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
If I was a sculptor, but then again, no
Or a man 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 while you’re in the world.

All thanks to Bernie Taupin & Elton John for this masterpiece!
