Crowded House - Elephants Lyrics
It's the closing hour
I don't want to go
But I could stay afloat
In your eyes
Where everyone gets lost
I won't stray across
The white line
Let's admit the world don't turn around us
It's acting like we don't exist
A drunk that's sleeping in the corner
Sweet dreams, make waves, find bliss
When elephants come down
They feel the same as us about life
We all take a drink
The sun begins to sink
The alligator waits for his time
Let's admit the world don't turn around us
It's acting like we don't exist
A drunk that's sleeping in the corner
Sweet dreams, make waves, find bliss
You don't have to say a word
You don't have to say a word
I hear what you're thinking
You don't have to say a word
You don't have to say a word
I know what you're thinking
I know there's no use
So lost and discontent
I'm looking for a friend I can trust
For all my intent
It hasn't happened yet
So now I come to you for insight
Let's admit the world don't care about us
It's acting like we don't exist
Drunk and sleeping in the corner
Sweet dreams, make waves, find bliss
Sweet dreams, make waves, find bliss

Crowded House Elephants Comments
one of neil's finest. and that really is saying something. you can tell he has really poured over each line, i love how he touches on the temptations of rock n roll to empathy with others to dark personal failure, the whole world goes on pause when i put this on.
By far my favourite track on Intriguer.
transcendental
Magnificent song.
Nice slow dance song
As good and better as anything Lennon or McCartney ever wrote
@ExpectationsShotgun
I was going to write pretty much the exact same thing as u on this song. that line 'sweet dreams, make waves, find bliss'. doesn't get better. Inspiring. One of the all time great songwriters.
Can't stop listening to these songs!
listened to the album about 20 times on a recent flight to seattle. the whole album is a winner.
BEST song of the new album!!! LOVE it !!!
Beautiful! I love Neil's voice
This very well might be in the top 5 best songs Neil Finn has ever written. Adam Duritz (Counting Crows) used those chorus chords in one of his songs, “Speedway”, but they don’t sound nearly as correct as they do in this song. Neil is simply one of masters of melody.
Love this song. Bang on form with this one :-)
