Lyrics:

Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Tim Rice
from the Lion King soundtrack

i can see whats happenin (what)
and they dont have a clue (who)
they'll fall in love
heres the bottom line
our trio's down to two(oh)

the sweet caress of twilight
there's magic everywhere
and with all this romantic atmosphere
disaster's in the air

chorus:
can u feel the love tonight
the peace the evening brings
the world for one in perfect harmony
with all its living things

so many things to tell her
but how to make her see
the truth about my past? impossible
she'd turn away from me

he's holding back he's hiding
but what i can't decide
why won't he be the king i know he is
the king i see in side?

chorus:
can u feel the love tonight
the peace the evening brings
the world for one in perfect harmony
with all its living things

can u feel the love tonight?
you needn't look to far
stealing through the night uncertainties
love is where they are

and if he falls in love tonight
it can be assumed
his carefree days with us are history
in short our pal is doomed
