Les paroles de la chanson
« Right before my eyes »
Elton John

How luminous he looks to me
So radiant and glorious
One savage kiss is all he needs
To change his life and make this night victorious

What princes of the moon we’d be
Two blazing beacons in the dark
Desire drives me to take him now
No force on earth would ever tear him from my heart

chorus
But why do I go back and forth
What is this doubt that clouds my thoughts
Don’t waste the chance and let the night pass by
He’s mine to take, he’s right before my eyes

So my conscience speaks to me
Of selfishness and consequence
The danger that from death I knew
A stolen soul no longer blessed with innocence

But such a kingdom could be ours
A wondrous world beyond compare
With his bright fire and I wish it so
Surely he agree this gift is one that should be shared

Everything I really need
Is standing here in front of me
The one thing that my heart should not deny
Is out of reach, but right before my eyes

It’s out of reach, but right before my eyes
