It’s Street Dance on the East Side! Hit it with that famous guitar solo intro Elliott! Yeah! “Your everlasting summer you can see it fading fast, so you grab a piece of something that you think is gonna last. You wouldn’t know a diamond if you held it in your hand. The things you think are precious I can’t understand. Are you reelin’ in the years, stowin’ away the time. Are you gatherin’ up the tears. Have you had enough of mine . . .”
