Elton John - Elaborate Lives (Elton John and Tim Rice's Aida)

Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Tim Rice

We all lead such elaborate lives
Wild ambitions in our sights
How an affair of the heart survives
Days apart and hurried nights

Seems quite unbelievable to me
I don't want to live like that
Seems quite unbelievable to me
I don't want to love like that
I just want our time to be slower and gentler, wiser, free

We all live in extravagant times
Playing games we can't all win
Unintended emotional crimes
Take some out, take others in

I'm so tired of all we're going through
I don't want to live like that
I'm so tired of all we're going through
I don't want to love like that
I just want to be with you now and forever, peaceful, true

I wish I had the courage
To tell you face to face
But I could wait forever
For the perfect time and place

We all live such elaborate lives
We don't know whose words are true
Strangers, lovers, husbands, wives
Hard to know whose loving who

Too many choices tear us apart
I don't want to live like that
Too many choices tear us apart
I don't want to love like that
I just want to touch your heart, may this confession be the start

The Greatest Discovery from the 1970 Elton John album and is one of Bernies most beautiful lyrics. This song was played at my son's baptism in 1982. Just beautiful! Thanks for posting! EJ fan for life!

The song is not "Tonight" it's "The Greatest Discovery" from Dwight's second album titled, 'Elton John."
