Don't Be Afraid To Let Her Into

I Grew Up At My Grandmother's House, And She Had A Beautiful Garden. I Used To Hate Mowing The Lawn And Weeding, Which Is What You Do When You're A Kid. I Loathe Gardening, But I Love Gardens, And I Have Two Beautiful Gardens.

I've Dodged So Many Bullets. Not Just Because Of Unsafe Sex, But Because Of The Amount Of Drugs I Did, The Amount Of Alcohol, The Amount Of Work I Was Doing. I Started The Elton John Aids Foundation Because I Got So Lucky.

Sweet Freedom Whispered In My Ear, You're A Butterfly, And Butterflies Are Free To Fly, Fly Away, High-away, Bye-bye.

I Suspected My Homosexuality, But I'd Never Acted Out On It Because I Was Afraid Of Sex. It's Awful To Be Afraid Of Sex.

I Grew Up In The Fifties And Early Sixties, Which Were Still Quite Conservative, And I Wasn't Given Any Information About Sex Or Anything Like That... I Went Out With Girls At School Because One Had To. I Didn't Experiment With Sex For Quite A Long Time.
