Two Rooms At The End Of The World Songtext / Lyric

Two Rooms At The End Of The World

music by Elton John . lyrics by Bernie Taupin
album "21 at 33" 1980


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
of 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 knight 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
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

where there is one room
you'll always find another
two rooms at the end of the world
where there is one room
you'll always find another
two rooms at the end of the world
