Love's Got A Lot To Answer For

Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Taupin

Pull my coat around me
Feel the cold wind haunt me
Streets are empty just like me
The murmour of an echo
Seems to come from every window
Is loneliness the same as being free

Oh I guess I must have been dreaming
To think that I believed in you at all
Now I just can't fight it
As the shadow of the night begins to fall

  Chorus
Love's got a lot to answer for
Oh I just can't sleep with this feeling any more
Let the cold night air cool the heat
Of two hearts gone to war
For no matter who wins, in the end
Love's got a lot to answer for

All I need is darkness
The best of all protection
Freedom's like the stars in the sky
Alone and cold and burning
Each one keeps its distance
If only we were stars you and I

  Repeat second verse

  Chorus

  Chorus
No matter who wins, in the end
Love's got a lot to answer for
