Elton John - Joseph Better You Than Me Lyrics

[Verse 1: Brandon Flowers]
Well your eyes just haven't been the same, Joseph
Are you bad at dealing with the fame, Joseph?
There's a pale moonshine above you
Do you see both sides? Do they shove you around?

[Verse 2: Elton John & Brandon Flowers]
Is the touchstone forcing you to hide, Joseph?
Are the rumors eating you alive, Joseph?
When the holy night is upon you
Will you do what's right? The position is yours

[Chorus: Elton John]
From the temple walls to the New York night
Our decisions rest on a child
When she took her stand, did she hold your hand?
Will your faith stand still or run away?
Run away

[Verse 3: Elton John]
When they've driven you so far
That you think you're gonna drop
Do you wish you were back there
At the carpenter shop?

[Verse 4: Neil Tennant]
With the plane and the lathe
The work never drove you mad
You're a maker, a creator
Not just somebody's dad
[Chorus: Brandon Flowers, Elton John & Neil Tennant]
From the temple walls to the New York night
Our decisions rest on a man
When I take the stand, will he hold my hand?
Will my faith stand still or run away?
(Run away)

[Verse 5: Elton John, Elton John & Brandon Flowers]
And the desert, it's a hell of a place to find heaven
Forty years lost in the wilderness, looking for God
And you climb to the top of the mountain
Looking down on the city where you were born
(Oh, the years since you left gave you time to sit back and reflect)

[Refrain: Elton John & Brandon Flowers]
Better you than me (Better you than me)
Better you than me, yeah
Well, the holy night is upon you (Better you, better you)
Do you see both sides, do they shove you around?
Better you than me, Joseph (Better you than me)
Better you than me, Joseph, Joseph
Joseph, Joseph (Than me)
Better you than me (Better you, better you, better you than me)

[Outro: Brandon Flowers]
Well, your eyes just haven't been the same, Joseph
