Bernie Taupin wrote the lyrics for this song when he was only 17. “I was 17 years old, and it was coming from someone whose outlook on love or experience with love was totally new and naïve. You have to write from where you are at a particular point in time, and ‘Your Song’ is exactly where I was coming from back then.” – Bernie Taupin.
