I Wish We Were Leaving

I Wish We Were Leaving

I wish we were leaving I wish we were in somebody's car Going faster Then we get home And that would be enough I'd look at the ceiling And feel like I was in somebody's arms Who really loved me But we won't get that far [Chorus] Cause you've got your eyes set on something that I don't see Whenever you smile it's for something that I don't feel And one day you'll be so good for somebody For somebody And one day you'll make somebody so happy But it won't be me [Verse 2: Elton John] [?], big nights You're showing a sign that you're not alright Going faster than you wanted Because it's not enough So tired of believing Love's gonna get you through the night There's no laughter when you take things this far [Chorus] [Bridge: Bright Light Bright Light & Elton John] You'll be turning their grey skies blue Like I'd do for you If you'd only let me You'll be dreaming and by your side There'll be two blue eyes Where I wanted to be Don't feel so deflated These things happen Timing fails and so It isn't your fault So don't look back You don't need to explain cause
