Music by elton john Lyrics by bernie taupin Available on the album ice on fire You say today was not so easy Pressure tends to get the best of you Well don't let them break your spirit Keep the faith and you will come on through And I'll head home for the weekend You're tired and you know I'll understand Just be waiting on the front steps baby when I get there And take a giant step into my hands And slip into my soul glove Pull it on we got a tight fit Never take it off And baby if the seam's rough And honey if the skin's soft You and me we go together Oh like a soul glove Look at me don't you believe me Cheating hangs a noose around your neck To shave in someone else's mirror Is one desire I haven't dreamed of yet But I'll head home for the weekend You're tired and you know I'll understand Just be waiting on the front steps baby when I get there And take a giant step into my hands
