Two Rooms At The End Of The World

Song byElton John
in Album21 At 33

Through a mutual agreement, we got that aching feeling

To look up one another one more time

Tracking down the zip codes

Sealing down those envelopes

Lack of communication on the telephone line

But don't judge us by distance

Or the difference between us

Try to look at it with an open mind

For where there is one room, you'll always find another

Two rooms at the end of the world

Well we've both ridden the wagon bit the tail off the dragon

Borne our swords like steel knights on the highway

Washing down the dirt roads

Hosing off our dirty clothes

Coming to terms with the times that we couldn't but we tried

Where there is one room, you'll always find another

Two rooms at the end of the world

Door to door they would whisper, will they ever get together

Their rooms are different temperatures I'm told

There's a change in their thinking

And their habits seem uneven

But together the two of them were mining gold
