Lyrics
[Chorus: Brandi Carlile, Elton John & Brandi Carlile] Go on and swing for the fences Take a shot at the moon A dandelion that dances Takes chances and fancies every little light in the room [Verse 1: Brandi Carlile, Elton John & Brandi Carlile] Don't hold your shoulders like a high school dance A white flag holder in a hopeless romance Red light kids crossing over the line Breaking step with the times, driving cars through the signs Be a heartbeat cannon in a quiet spot A white picket fence in a parking lot It's a long game and they're gonna tеll you it's not They're high-five dodgеrs And, baby, they don't deserve you [Refrain: Elton John & Brandi Carlile] Beautiful you They got nothing on you Yeah, I'm talking to you Get out of the blue They got nothing on you [Chorus: Brandi Carlile, Elton John & Brandi Carlile] Go on and swing for the fences, oh, yeah Take a shot at the moon A dandelion that dances Takes chances and fancies every little light in the room [Verse 2: Elton John & Brandi Carlile] Be a heartbeat cannon in a quiet spot A white picket fence in a parking lot It's a long game and they're gonna tell you it's not They're high-five dodgers And, baby, they don't deserve you [Refrain: Elton John & Brandi Carlile] Beautiful you They got nothing on you Yeah, I'm talking to you Get out of the blue They got nothing on you [Outro] Ah-ah-ah, ooh-ooh Ah-ah-ah, ooh-ooh Ah-ah-ah, ooh-ooh Ah-ah-ah, ooh-ooh Ah-ah-ah, ooh-ooh Ah-ah-ah
