Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
Available on the album Don't Shoot Me I'm Only The Piano Player
Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
They say Spain is pretty though I've never been
Well Daniel says it's the best place that he's ever seen
Oh and he should know, he's been there enough
Lord I miss Daniel, oh I miss him so much
Daniel my brother you are older than me
Do you still feel the pain of the scars that won't heal
Your eyes have died but you see more than I
Daniel you're a star in the face of the sky
Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for Spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
Oh God it looks like Daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes

Shouldn't they be pictures of beautiful, half naked men?

Another compliment for Elton - he can start an album with a rocker "Chasing the Crown" and end it with a disco-esque ballad such as this without missing a beat. Judy Tzuke is such a great talent. Shame she didn't catch on in the USA. Hope she is doing well. Saw her warming up for Elton on the 21 at 33 tour. She seemed lost - perhaps due to warming up and people still filing in while she was trying to perform, but her skills were evident. Loved Elton's minimalist solo & the rhythm guitar too!

The contribution of Judy Tzuke seems to be underated here. Beautiful song, beautiful lyrics.... melts my heart every time I hear it.
