  • Oh, the joke was never hard to tell
    Threw my spare change in the wishing well
    The dream alone is always in your hands
    If that don't fill the boy and build the man
    A heart has many secrets, so I'm told
    Through the years, a theory can grow cold
    I'm up to be the king, it's gotten clear
    The voice inside my head is the one I hear

    Singing, I'm gonna love me again
    Check in on my very best friend
    Find the wind to fill my sails
    Rise above the broken rails
    Unbound by any ties that break or bend
    I'm free, and don't you know?
    No clown to claim he used to know me then
    I'm free, and don't you know?
    And oh-oh-oh, I'm gonna love me again

    The golden age was somehow bittersweet
    But now the past lies sleepin' in the deep
    The peaceful days that followed hollow nights
    A kiss or touch could feel like Kryptonite
    Praise the Saints that hung up on my wall
    For trust is left in lovers after all
    A whispered word emergin' from a tale
    My wake-up call to claim the cursed spell

    Well, I'm gonna love me again (love me again)
    Check in on my very best friend
    Find the wind to fill my sails
    Rise above the broken rails
    Unbound by any ties that break or bend
    I'm free, and don't you know?
    No clown to claim he used to know me then
    I'm free, and don't you know?
    And oh-oh-oh, I'm gonna love me again

    Sing, I'm gonna love me again
    Check in on my very best friend
    Find the wind to fill my sails
    Rise above the broken rails
    Unbound by any ties that break or bend
    I'm free, and don't you know?
    No clown to claim he used to know me then
    I'm free, don't you know?
    And oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
    Oh-oh-oh, I'm gonna love me again

    I'm gonna love me again

  • Shawn N from Green BayElton and Bernie still writing hits in 2019. This is completely crazy.
    I first heard it at work, and I was like - "Is that fricking Elton John?" Unbelievable.
