I’VE GOT 2 WINGS - ELTON JOHN "Wonderful Crazy Night" (2016) Submitted by ClassicalfreaK INTRO "mm-mm-mm mm..." - - / - VERSE I am the elder Utah Smith I’ve got two wings to fly They may be made of paper They may never reach the sky But I believe in mercy I believe that man is good And if they want two wings like me There’s a chance they could VERSE I am the elder Utah Smith I was born in Cedar Grove That’s in Louisiana On a dirt-poor stretch of road I found the calling early Gave birth to righteous words And in a tent around the South I took my sonic church CHORUS I was a light for the living And I spoke of peace and love With two wings and my old Gibson I bought blessings from above I was here and I was gone Just a heartbeat from the past But I went from paper wings To the real thing at last VERSE I am the elder Utah Smith I take all as they are I was the first man of the cloth To blacken a guitar Love was my redeemer I felt it from the start The Holy Ghost was channeled Through the sound of my guitar CHORUS I was a light for the living And I spoke of peace and love With two wings and my old Gibson I bought blessings from above I was here and I was gone Just a heartbeat from the past But I went from paper wings To the real thing at last INTERLUDE "mm-mm-mm mm" - - / - BRIDGE Been a long time in the ground Unmarked is my grave But I reside elsewhere these days Thanks to souls I’ve saved I traveled far I traveled wide Three quarts for the Lord Till one day he called me home To claim his great reward CHORUS I was a light for the living And I spoke of peace and love With two wings and my old Gibson I bought blessings from above I was here and I was gone Just a heartbeat from the past But I went from paper wings To the real thing at last I was a light for the living And I spoke of peace and love With two wings and my old Gibson I bought blessings from above I was here and I was gone Just a heartbeat from the past But I went from paper wings To the real thing at last OUTRO "mm-mm-mm mm" [gtr] / - - - - -

La chanson évoque le parcours d'une figure spirituelle qui exprime sa conviction profonde en la bonté humaine et en la miséricorde divine. L'artiste se décrit comme un messager, armé de sa guitare, qui a su porter des messages d'amour et de paix au travers de ses chansons. Malgré des débuts modestes, il a su transcender ses origines grâce à sa foi et à sa passion pour la musique. Au fil de sa vie, il a évolué d'une existence limitée à un véritable envol, symbolisé par l'idée de passer d'ailes en papier à de réelles capacités à toucher les cœurs. Le contexte de cette œuvre fait allusion à une époque et un lieu où la musique gospel prenait une place importante, notamment dans le Sud des États-Unis, et où l'artiste, en tant que ministre, revendiquait une mission de partage et de guérison spirituelle. Il évoque les luttes, mais aussi la joie d'avoir pu apporter des bénédictions à ceux qui l'écoutaient, reliant ainsi l’univers musical à une recherche de connexion divine.
