English recording artist Ellie Goulding covered Your Song for inclusion on the re-release of her debut album, entitled Bright Lights. It was released digitally as the re-release’s lead single in the United Kingdom on 12 November 2010. The single debuted on the UK Singles Chart at number thirty-nine on the issue dated 20 November 2010. It rose to number three the following week, before reaching number two in its third week, becoming Goulding’s highest-peaking single to date. For this rendition, Ellie displays her massively sweet divine vocals to perfection. Just like the original, Ellie’s rendition is piano-driven which keeps things simple. The piano-driven rendition strengthened by Ellie’s sweet divine vocals tells us that music, at times, should just be simple and let the singer connect with its listening audience. Does Ellie succeed in doing this? Hell yes! Check it out below. Your Song lyrics follow.
Ellie Goulding – Your Song Song Words
It’s a little bit funny
This feeling inside.
I’m not one of those who can
Easily hide.
I don’t have much money
But boy if I did
I’d buy a big house where
We both could live.
So excuse me forgetting
But these things I do.
See I’ve forgotten if
They’re green or they’re blue.
Anyway the thing is…
What I really mean…
Yours are the sweetest eyes
I’ve ever seen.
And you can tell everybody
This is your song.
It maybe quite simple but
Now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind (x2)
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is
Now you’re in the world.
If I was a sculptor
But then again no.
Or a girl who makes potions in
A travelling show.
I know it’s not much but
It’s the best I can do.
My gift is my song and
This one’s for you.

Oh… (x10)
And you can tell everybody
This is your song.
It maybe quite simple but
Now that it’s done
I hope you don’t mind (x2)
That I put down in words
How wonderful life is
Now you’re in the world.
