Amazes Me Lyrics

Lyrics

Amazes Me

From Sleeping with the Past1989

Written by Bernie Taupin, Elton John

Produced by Chris Thomas

Lyrics

Amazes Me

[Verse 1] You're a cool little one My dark southern breeze Sweeps through my fingers And it amazes me Dixie shadowland Your envy shelters me Lay down your burden Mystery of ebony [Chorus 1] And it amazes me Oh! It amazes me Maybe the heat babe could be this tune It amazes me It amazes me What drives me crazy Is that big fat yellow moon [Verse 2] Look up that pale light Well she's waking the trees I'm drifting in your hoodoo And it amazes me That magnolia state Got a hold on me I got no blues to preach Just Mississippi company There is no magic potion No gri-gri on her side She's bound to my salvation Sweet little mama Take me down by the river tonight And it amazes me
