Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album leather jackets<br><br>You say that all you want are the simple things<br>Long walks on lonely beaches, guitars with nylon strings<br>But underneath you'd rather leap through a hoop of fire<br>You shy away from lips that want, that want to kiss you<br>Tongue-tied on formal evenings, wealth don't impress you<br>But if you ask me you like the heat in a hoop of fire<br><br>And it's hard to read just how you feel or what your dreams desire<br>Your pulse that races when I'm close reads like a hoop of fire<br>Your pulse that races when I'm close reads like a hoop of fire<br><br>No late nights making love in secret places<br>You feel pressure all around you, mistrust in strangers faces<br>But don't pretend you wouldn't spend some time in a hoop of fire<br><br>But don't pretend you wouldn't spend some time in a hoop of fire
