Lyrics by bernie taupin

Available on the album sleeping with the past



Help me information

Get emotion on the line

This war that's raging in my heart's

Getting harder all the time

Our painted smiles are cracking

Our worried friends just frown

We got a runaway train on an empty track

That's trying to run us down



And i'm a stone's throw from hurtin'

Everything we put together

Knee deep in learning about burning this bridge forever

I'm a stone's throw, a stone's throw

A stone's throw from hurtin'

And i know it's never gonna get no better





Crippled conversation hangs inside this house

Our voices just get ugly

When our love gets all talked out

Your goodnight kiss ain't hungry

Our touches don't connect

We're just a couple of kids with a broken toy

That our idle fingers wrecked





Some things get broken

When stones get thrown

Some things get better

When you leave what you love

And you let what you love alone





Some things get broken

When stones get thrown

Some things get better when you leave what you love

And let what you love alone
