When I Think About Love (I Think About You)

Elton John · Other Songs - Elton John

Holding all the pictures that my life's drawn

I never find I'm missing love

Remembering all parades that had been rained on

But never cloudy leaving love



Ask me what it is that makes it special

Why it's so real to me?



It's knowing who keeps their place in my heart

It's knowing how is it I can feel you

It's knowing never will I change my mind

When I think about love, I think about you



When I think about love, I think about you



Too many times I've turned my emotions on and off

Without realizing what it does

Know what's moved me and kept me going this far

But I never questioned what it was



Ask me what it is that makes it special

Why it's so real to me?



It's knowing who keeps their place in my heart

It's knowing how is it I can feel you

It's knowing, never will I change my mind

When I think about love, I think about you



When I think about love, I think about you



So ask me what it is that makes it special

And why it's so real to me?



It's knowing who keeps their place in my heart

It's knowing how is it I can feel you

It's knowing, never will I change my mind

When I think about love, I think about you



When I think about love, I think about you

When I think about love, I think about you

When I think about love, I think about you
