Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin

I never dreamed I could cry so hard
That ain´t like a man

I could fly like a bird some days
Had a place where I could land

I could have sworn we were all locked in
Ain´t that what you said
I never knew it could hurt so bad
When the power of love is dead

But giving into the nighttime
Ain´t no cure for the pain
You gotta wade into the water
You gotta learn to live again

And reach out for her healing hands
Reach out for her healing hands
There´s a light, where the darkness ends
Touch me now and let me see again
Rock me now in your gentle healing hands

I never knew love like poison
That burned like a fire
All I ever wanted was a reason
To drown in your eyes

I never knew sleep so restless
Empty arms so cold
That´s not the way it´s supposed to be
It ain´t the spell that I was sold
