Elton John - The Diving Board (Deluxe Version)

Mexican Vacation (Kids In The Candlelight) - Live From Capitol Studios

This song is called "Mexican Vacation"
One, two, three

Ooh, I carried you in my arms
Through the hotel to our room
The night was filled with music
Those old historic tunes

Songs of revolution
Filled our heart and fed our souls
The fireworks exploded
Like those cannon long ago

See the kid and the candlelight
Spirit on the mend
Every golden child tonight
Just changes on the wind
See the kid and the candlelight
See 'em shinin' bright
Innocence beyond the light
See the kid and the candlelight

Whoo, 500 wooden saints below
The color's cracked and dry
You said their stories should be told
Did they deserve when they died?

Give us your condition
Give us hope and send us home
We'll be the crack bell ringing
The voice of dust and bones

This kid and the candlelight
Spirit on the mend
Every golden child tonight
See changes on the wind
Be the kid and the candlelight
Spirits on 'em bright
Innocence beyond the fight
See the kid and the candlelight

Pillow that you dream on
Like roll up on the floor
You tossed it at the TV screen
At the drug lord and his war

Thinkin' of the courtyard
'Til a tear, oh, from your eye
The white shirt in the moonlight
The warm forgivin' smiles

See the kid and the candlelight
Spirit on the mend
Every golden child tonight
See changes on the wind
See the kids in the candlelight
See 'em shinin' bright
Innocence beyond the light
See the kids in the candlelight

Ooh, y-yeah, yeah (yeah)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
