YOU CAN MAKE HISTORY (Elton John)

    I can feel the time closing in
    I can feel the years crawling through my skin
    And if I doubt myself I can count on the rain
    To cover the tears of this aging game

    But I can count on you to play your part
    I don't miss a beat of your animal heart
    And when you push from behind I know I can
    Cover a mountain with the palm of my hand

    And oh babe, you can make history young again
    You could rewrite, you could decide
    The things that should or shouldn't have been
    You could look at me in the scheme of things
    Oh babe, you could make history young again

    I can watch the weeks sweeping by
    I can recollect the hearts hanging out to dry
    When the world shuts down I can touch my fears
    I can hear lost youth ringing in my ears

    But I lost nothing when I gained you
    You just blew me away with yesterdays news
    When you run your fingers down my spine
    It's like throwing a switch on the hands of time
