One More Arrow

Music by Elton John . lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Album Too Low For Zero 1983

He said I want to grow up
And look like Robert Mitchum
And he said that when I'm gone
There'll be some say that I miss him

He must have been romantic
He must have sensed adventure
And he feel the steel of his strong will
In the frame around his picture

And he's one more arrow
Flying through the air
One more arrow lying in a shadow spot somewhere
Where the days and nights mend into one
And he can always feel the sun
Through the soft brown earth that holds him
Forever always young

He could have been a boxer
But the fight game seemed so dirty
We argued once - he knocked me down
And he cried when he thought he'd hurt me

Strictly from the old school
He was quiet about his pain
And if one in ten could be that brave
I would never hate again

And he's one more arrow
Flying through the air
One more arrow lying in a shadow spot somewhere
Where the days and nights mend into one
And he can always feel the sun
Through the soft brown earth that holds him
Forever always young
