[Elton John:]
The weather man he looks confused
Shakes his fist at the sky like you used to do
[Cliff Richard:]
But you don't remember things like that do you?
The balance was uneven but I'm breaking through
[Cliff Richard and Elton John:]
Slow rivers run cold
Shallow waters never sank so low
I thought I'd drown and you'd never know
You're a slow river and you run so cold
[Cliff Richard:]
The winter here don't believe in God
The bitter wind just bites through me like a wild dog
[Elton John:]
I still see your eyes tonight like headlights through the fog
But one foot in your door oh that's all I ever got
[Cliff Richard and Elton John:]
Chances are you'll reappear
Swim my way in a flood of tears
No place to hide your conscience so
You're a sinking ship with no place to go
