Ballad Of The Boy In The Red Shoes Lyrics - Songs From The West Coast - Elton John

I'm stoned in the twilight 

Screaming on the inside 

Give me your water, help me survive 

Gonna miss the sunlight 

When I lose my eyesight 

Give me my red shoes, I want to dance 

They search for an answer 

But that old man wouldn't listen 

Back then I was handsome 

Back then he was ignorant 

And shave off the years now, it's all inside my head 

The boy in the red shoes is dancing by my bed 

Put them in a box somehere, put them in a drawer 

Take my red shoes, I can't wear them anymore

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Had garlands in the wings back then 

All the pretty little things back then 

Calling out my name, oh what fame brings 

After curtain calls and bows 

I can't see the front row now 

Hand me my red shoes just one more time 

They pushed aside our presence 

They refused to go the distance 

Back then I was Sigmund 

Back then he wouldn't listen 

And shave off the years now, it's all inside my head 

The boy in the red shoes is dancing by my bed 

Put them in a box somehere, put them in a drawer 

Take my red shoes, I can't wear them anymore 

They pushed aside our presence 

They refused to go the distance 

Back then I was Sigmund 

Back then he wouldn't listen 

Back then I was handsome 

Back then he was ignorant 

And shave off the years now, it's all inside my head 

The boy in the red shoes is dancing by my bed 

Put them in a box somehere, put them in a drawer 

Take my red shoes, I can't wear them anymore 

Put them in a box somehere, put them in a drawer 

Take my red shoes, I can't wear them anymore 

I can't wear them anymore 

I can't wear them anymore
