The Panic In Me

Elton John · Road To El Dorado [2004]

Often these days and always these nights

I find I'm afraid of the turbulent heights

No matter how crazily, no matter how far

The moments of tenderness are those where you are



For when you are laughing like silver, like rain

You cool me, you soothe me and love me again

For a few perfect hours the world lets me be

You know how to calm down



Oh, oh

The panic in me

The panic in me

The panic in me

The panic in me



Once in a while I slip back to my past

Where I long to remain but the dream does not last

In the trials of the present no matter how low

You bring me such peace and you won't let me go



For when you are laughing like silver, like rain

You cool me, you soothe me and love me again

For a few perfect hours the world lets me be

You know how to break down



Oh, oh

The panic in me

The panic in me

The panic in me

The panic in me



In the trials of the present no matter how low

You bring me such peace and you won't let me go

Oh, don't let me go



For when you are laughing like silver, like rain

You cool me, you soothe me and you love me again

For a few perfect hours the world lets me be

You know how to break down



Oh, oh, oh, oh

The panic in me

The panic in me

The panic in me

The panic in me

The panic in me
