Artist/Band: Elton John
Lyrics for Song: Burning Buildings
Lyrics for Album: Breaking Hearts [1984]



It used to be a sweet sensation

No price too high for love

Now I pay for this bitter taste

And the price is not enough



Such cruel sport for your kicks

Such hard knocks on my heart

How long before the pain ends

Tell me where living starts



And lovers leap off burning buildings

Waking up on a sky high wire

Desperation leaves us clinging

On the edge of a house on fire



Lovers leap off burning buildings

Live our life on borrowed time

Every flame that ever moved you

Touched your lips but never mine



Lovers leap off burning buildings



No room for conversation

Cold stares and angry words

Fall in pieces from our faces

We read "do not disturb"



Some lovers just go hungry

Others beg for just a bite

You use me under pressure

To whet your appetite


Album Lyrics: Breaking Hearts [1984]
