My Elusive Drug - Elton John

I'm not the same as I used to be
All the things you've heard seem hard to believe
Haven't always been good, never really been bad
Most times I've been happy, yea sometimes I've been sad
Sure I've made mistakes, haven't we all
I've been loose as a cannon and dumb as a wall
Haven't always been sober in counting my ducks
And if I look back now I've had my share of luck

But the change didn't come over night
I've been searching for you all my life
All the habits that I couldn't handle
I've swept them under the rug
In exchange for the sweetest addiction
You, my elusive drug

I'm going to stay now, I really like it here
I may paint your picture, and I might grow a beard
There were times I was crazy couldn't handle my life
Don't think you'd have liked me not at any old price

But the change didn't come over night
I've been searching for you all my life
All the habits that I couldn't handle
I've swept them under the rug
In exchange for the sweetest addiction
You, my elusive drug

And I've taken the pills
I got burnt out and chilled by the cold
But I've no regrets and that being said
You know cheap thrills can get pretty old

Yeah, Yeah, oh Yeah

But the change didn't come over night
I've been searching for you all my life
All the habits that I couldn't handle
I've swept them under the rug
In exchange for the sweetest addiction
You, my elusive drug

In exchange for the sweetest addiction
You, my elusive drug

nejsem stejny,jako jsem byval
vsechny veci,ktere jsi slysela-tezko jim uverit
nebyl jsem vzdycky dobry,ale nikdy ne uplne spatny
vetsinou jsem byl stastny,jasne,nekdy taky smutny
ano,delal jsem chyby,ale kdo ne?
byl jsem nepresny jak delo a zabedneny jako zed
nebyl jsem ani skromny,co se tyce mnozstvi kalhot
a kdybych se ted mel ohlednout,chtel bych sdilet znovu to stesti

ale zmeny neprichazi pres noc
hledal jsem te cely zivot
vsechny zvyky,ktere jsem nemel pod kontrolou
jsem zametl pod koberec
vymenou za nejsladsi zavislost
tebe,ma nedostizna drogo

tedka tady zustanu,opravdu se mi tu libi
mozna nakreslim obrazek tebe,a mozna si necham narust vousy
byly casy,kdy jsem byl sileny-nemel jsem zivot pod kontrolou
myslim ze bych se ti nelibil za zadnou cenu

ale zmeny neprichazi pres noc
hledal jsem te cely zivot
vsechny zvyky,ktere jsem nemel pod kontrolou
jsem zametl pod koberec
vymenou za nejsladsi zavislost
tebe,ma nedostizna drogo

bral jsem prasky
vyhorel jsem a ochladl jsem zimou
ale nelituju a rekl bych
lehka vzruseni muzou docela zestarnout

jojojoooo

ale zmeny neprichazi pres noc
hledal jsem te cely zivot
vsechny zvyky,ktere jsem nemel pod kontrolou
jsem zametl pod koberec
vymenou za nejsladsi zavislost
tebe,ma nedostizna drogo

vymenou za nejsladsi zavislost
tebe,ma nedostizna drogo
