if you could see me now

Elton John

People passing by
They don't mean a thing
It's just your face
I'm looking for
Never see your hair
Blowing through the crowd
It's been like this
Since you walked out the door

Everywhere I search
There's nothing there to see
Nothing but an empty space
Which throws itself at me
But still I never cease
To try and find you girl
'Cause my heart is broken now
And you have got the key

If you could see me now
You'd come running back to me
I'm just a little shell of the man
Of the man I used to be

Now and then I wonder why
I try and bring you back home
But though you went away
I'd be a fool to spend my life alone
So I'm begging girl
Put past things in the past
That's all over now
We'll build a love to last

If you could see me now
You'd come running back to me
I'm just a little shell of the man
Of the man I used to be

If you don't come back
I don't know what I'll do
And if you come back to me
There's nothing I won't do for you
I'm just an unhappy man
So try and do what you can
I'll never make you blue
I'll never be untrue again

If you could see me now
You'd come running back to me
I'm just a little shell of the man
Of the man I used to be

If you could see me now
You'd come running back to me
I'm just a little shell of the man
Of the man I used to be
