Elton John – Sacrifice Lyrics | 7 years ago |
Just wanted to add this which I think is one best lines in the text: No tears do damn you - He is so cold and his heart is so hardened that he does not cry. If he did, it would mean that he still had feelings for her. This is even worse for her, because she wants forgiveness, but his heart has been hardened, so he does not shed a tear. I'm reminded of a song by Burl Ives: a Little Bitty Tear Let me Down |
Elton John – Sacrifice Lyrics | 7 years ago |
It's a human sign When things go wrong = Things have gone wrong. It's human nature. When the scent of her lingers And temptation's strong = He is tempted to forgive her. Into the boundary of each married man = But no married man can acept that his wife is unfaithful. Sweet deceit comes calling and negativity lands = She has been unfaithful. Cold cold heart hardened by you = His heart is cold. Some things look better, baby just passing through = He knows she regrets it and that it was not worth it. But Divorce / goodbye is not a sacrifice, just a simple word. He has no feelings for her anymore. He ends it. Mutual misunderstanding After the FIGHT = They fight Sensitivity builds a prison In the final act = They isolate themselves from eachother We lose direction No stone unturned = They cant make it work No tears to damn you = He does not cry, even though When jealousy burns = Jealousy burns Cold cold heart hardened by you = His heart is cold. Some things look better, baby just passing through = He knows she regrets it and that it was not worth it, but there is nothing left to do now. Divorce is not a sacrifice, just a simple word. They are two hearts living In two separate worlds It's no scarifice at all. |
