rate me

Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Available on the album breaking hearts<br><br>It used to be a sweet sensation<br>No price too high for love<br>Now I pay for this bitter taste<br>And the price is not enough<br><br>Such cruel sport for your kicks<br>Such hard knocks on my heart<br>How long before the pain ends<br>Tell me where living starts<br><br>And lovers leap off burning buildings<br>Waking up on a sky high wire<br>Desperation leaves us clinging<br>On the edge of a house on fire<br><br>Lovers leap off burning buildings<br>Live our life on borrowed time<br>Every flame that ever moved you<br>Touched your lips but never mine<br><br>Lovers leap off burning buildings<br><br>No room for conversation<br>Cold stares and angry words<br>Fall in pieces from our faces<br>We read do not disturb<br><br>Some lovers just go hungry<br>Others beg for just a bite<br>You use me under pressure<br>To whet your appetite
