Who Wears These Shoes

Elton John

(Elton John/Bernie Taupin)



There's a light on in your window

There's a shadow on the street

Two silhouettes tell me it's over

The shadow knows that shadow's me



I won't crawl or cause you trouble

That's the last thing I'll ever do

But before I leave your life completely

Tell me, who wears these shoes?



Lord knows the days just get longer

The nights grow cold with you in my mind

And I feel like an old jukebox

Playing the same song all the time



If these crazy dreams don't kill me

It's more than I can take from you

Now knowing where or when I'll see you

Not knowing darling who wears these shoes



Chorus

My friends all say don't go pieces

I say that's fine but if I lose

I wanna know who's in my footsteps

I wanna know who wears these shoes



My friends all think I must be crazy

I see the facts but if it's true

I wanna know who's in my footsteps

I wanna know who wears these shoes



And it's a chilling feeling

When I can't see him

What do I do

When I face the two of you

And it's a chilling feeling

When I can't see him

What do I do

What do I do



Chorus
