[Verse 1: Elton John]
You, oh, you
Are still a beauty to behold
You been my muse
Every story that I've told
Oh, take me back some years
To when we were young without a fear
[Pre-Chorus: Elton John]
All along, you have been the song that I wanna hear
[Chorus: Elton John]
I been down the darkest alleys
Been to the bottom where the angels cry
Thought it had all been all for nothin'
Until I saw you at the finish line
[Verse 2: Stevie Wonder]
Forgive me for the ways I've let ya down
Won't you give me another chance to make you proud?
Oh, flash forward twenty years
Forever keep me young and my conscience clear
[Pre-Chorus: Stevie Wonder]
All along, you have been the song that I wanna hear, ooh yeah, ah
[Chorus: Elton John, Stevie Wonder, Both]
I've been down the darkest alleys
Been to the bottom where the angels cry (Where the angels cry)
Thought it had all been all for nothin'
Until I saw you at the finish line
[Harmonica Solo]
[Chorus: Stevie Wonder & Elton John, Elton John, Stevie Wonder]
Yeah, yeah
Yes, I been down the darkest alleys
Been to the bottom where the angels cry (Angels cry)
Thought it had all been all for nothin'
Until I saw you at the finish line (At the finish line)
Oh, I been down the darkest alleys
Been to the bottom watching life go by (Watching life go by)
Thought it had all been all for nothin'
Until I saw you at the finish line (At the finish line, yeah, oh, woah)
[Outro: Choir, Elton John, Both]
I've been down the darkest alleys (Down to the bottom)
Been to the bottom where the angels cry
Thought it had all been all for nothin'
Until I saw you (Saw you) at the finish line

Elton John:
I put the electric piano down. He came and played acoustic piano and then did the harmonica solo. Then we put the Kanye West choir on, which really made the difference. And then Stevie put his vocal on. I haven’t heard Stevie sound so young since he was about 19, just before he did Talk...
We wanted Stevie initially just to play harmonica and then it just grew. Then he put acoustic piano on it so he and I are playing piano on the same record, which is so great. He wasn’t going to sing on it, I think he thought he’d done enough. I really wanted him to sing on it because it, for me, was...
