Elton John - Gulliver lyrics

Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album empty sky<br><br>Gulliver's gone to the final command of his master<br>His watery eyes had washed all the hills with his laughter<br>And the seasons can change all the light from the grey to the dim<br>But the light in his eyes will see no more bright<br>As the sheep that he locked in the pen<br><br>There's four feet of ground in front of the barn<br>That's sun baked and rain soaked and part of the farm<br>But now it lies empty so cold and so bare<br>Gulliver's gone but his memory lies there<br><br>By passing the doors of his life was a stage I remember<br>And in later years he would cease to bare teeth to a stranger<br>For sentiment touched him as cyclamen holds him<br>And later men came from the town<br>Who said clear the child this won't take a while<br>And gulliver's gone with the dawn
