(I’m Gonna) Love Me Again

Elton John, Taron Egerton

Oh, the joke was never hard to tell

Threw my spare change in the wishing well

The dream alone is always in your hands

If that don’t fill the boy and build the man

A heart has many secrets, so I’m told

Through the years, a theory can grow cold

I’m up to be the king, it’s gotten clear

The voice inside my head is the one I hear

Singing, I’m gonna love me again

Check in on my very best friend

Find the wind to fill my sails

Rise above the broken rails

Unbound by any ties that break or bend

I’m free, and don’t you know?

No clown to claim he used to know me then

I’m free, and don’t you know?

And oh-oh-oh, I’m gonna love me again

The golden age was somehow bittersweet

But now the past lies sleepin’ in the deep

The peaceful days that followed hollow nights

A kiss or touch could feel like Kryptonite

Praise the Saints that hung up on my wall

For trust is left in lovers after all

A whispered word emergin’ from a tale

My wake-up call to claim the cursed spell

Well, I’m gonna love me again

Check in on my very best friend

Find the wind to fill my sails

Rise above the broken rails

Unbound by any ties that break or bend

I’m free, and don’t you know?

No clown to claim he used to know me then

I’m free, and don’t you know?

And oh-oh-oh, I’m gonna love me again

Sing, I’m gonna love me again

Check in on my very best friend

Find the wind to fill my sails

Rise above the broken rails

Unbound by any ties that break or bend

I’m free, and don’t you know?

No clown to claim he used to know me then

I’m free, don’t you know?

And oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh, I’m gonna love me again

I’m gonna love me again

I’m gonna love me again
