Love Lies Bleeding

Music by elton john

Lyrics by bernie taupin

Available on the album goodbye yellow brick road





The roses in the window box

Have tilted to one side

Everything about this house

Was born to grow and die



Oh it doesn't seem a year ago

To this very day

You said i'm sorry honey

If i don't change the pace

I can't face another day





And love lies bleeding in my hand

Oh it kills me to think of you with another man

I was playing rock and roll and you were just a fan

But my guitar couldn't hold you

So i split the band

Love lies bleeding in my hands





I wonder if those changes

Have left a scar on you

Like all the burning hoops of fire

That you and i passed through





You're a bluebird on a telegraph line

I hope you're happy now

Well if the wind of change comes down your way girl

You'll make it back somehow
