Elton JOHN - your song (1970)


Mon cadeau est ma chanson
et celle-ci est pour toi
Et tu peux dire à tout le monde,
c'est ta chanson

Your Song est une chanson composée par Elton John et Bernie Taupin, extraite du deuxième album de John, Elton John, sorti en 1970.
John Lennon confia à la presse l'intérêt qu'il portait pour cette chanson. Il rencontra Elton John, à qui il confirma son admiration. Ils devinrent amis. En 1975, John Lennon et Yoko Ono firent d'Elton John le parrain de leur fils Sean[réf. nécessaire].
Cette chanson a connu de nombreuses reprises, dont celle de Billy Paul sur l'album 360 Degrees of Billy Paul (en) en 1972.

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

I sat on the roof and kicked off the moss
Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross
But the sun's been quite kind while i wrote this song
It's for people like you that keep it turned on

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
