Blue Avenue

Elton John

I gotta quit this habit

It's like some drug for you

You've been my sweet sweet addict

I've been your little white boy blue

You've got the same obsession

We ain't no cat and mouse

You linger on my lips like confession

You laid the traps in this house

And it's no use each way we lose

You and me at the crossroads of Blue Avenue

Hit and run hearts collide here

True love passes through

Looks like we've got a wreck babe

Up on Blue Avenue

Up on Blue Avenue

Blue Avenue

Two hearts get entangled

Dirty minds they go to town

Everyone's got an angle

Little lies get spread around

Let them say what they want

You and me we already knew

Takes more than hocus pocus babe

To save you from Blue Avenue
