I'm Still Standing

Elton John Pop English

Vocabulary from Elton John: 'I'm Still Standing'.

You could never know what it's like

Your blood like winter, freezes just like ice

And there's a cold, lonely light that shines from you

You'll wind up like the wreck you hide behind that mask you use

And did you think this fool could never win?

Well, look at me, I'm coming back again

I got a taste of love in a simple way

And if you need to know, while I'm still standing, you just fade away

Don't you know I'm still standing better than I ever did?

Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid

I'm still standing after all this time

Picking up the pieces of my life, without you on my mind

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

Once, I never coulda hoped to win

You starting down the road, leaving me again

The threats you made were meant to cut me down

And if our love was just a circus, you'd be a clown by now

You know I'm still standing better than I ever did

Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid

I'm still standing after all this time

Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

Don't you know that I'm still standing better than I ever did?

Looking like a true survivor, feeling like a little kid

I'm still standing after all this time

Picking up the pieces of my life without you on my mind

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm still standing, yeah, yeah, yeah
