[00:03.45]The Weight Of The World
[00:08.28]Elton John
[00:13.31]
[00:24.74]I'm weary and I'm staying up late
[00:28.79]And the rain hits my roof so hard
[00:32.95]You know I'm no longer thirty
[00:35.07]These days I'm happy to play
[00:38.29]One or two hands of cards
[02:50.74][00:43.87]I hate flies in the kitchen buzzing
[02:54.33][00:47.67]Disturbing the peace I've found
[02:58.31][00:51.43]Fortune and fame is so fleeting
[03:01.17][00:53.91]These days I'm happy to say
[03:03.50][00:56.69]I'm amazed that I'm still around
[03:09.63][01:47.36][01:02.43]And the weight of the world is off my back
[03:13.21][01:51.00][01:06.06]When we fell, we got up
[03:14.85][01:52.76][01:07.58]And crawled out the cracks
[03:17.20][01:55.06][01:10.10]Excuse me if I take some comfort in that
[03:35.89][03:20.80][01:58.91][01:13.68]Happy today, happy to play
[03:42.86][03:28.17][02:06.02][01:21.12]With the weight of the world off of my back
[03:49.54]
[01:28.92]Humidity hangs like a curtain
[01:32.12]Oh, it fogs up my glasses sometimes
[01:36.33]You know I've still got my eyesight
[01:39.17]These days I'm happy to see
[01:42.00]A sunset instead of a line
[02:13.47]There's a long list of names
[02:15.33]That I don't recall
[02:17.28]Even though my memory's good
[02:21.23]The rain washed away
[02:23.13]The lemons and weeds
[02:24.72]When the weight of the world weighed more than it should
[02:33.54]
