Lyrics:Tim Rice Music:Elton John | |
Your accountant called this morning | |
There was springtime in his heart | |
He couldn't wait to tell me | |
How he'd pulled our lives apart | |
And the letter from your lawyer | |
Lies unopened on the tray | |
I may get around to reading it later today | |
Walking round the lonely rooms | |
I see everything the same | |
But suddenly it matters | |
What was purchased in my name | |
Whether this or that was paid for | |
Belongs to me or you | |
Can the seven years together be divided by two | |
It says something for the legal boys | |
But nothing much for us | |
That all we had together | |
Is so quickly ended thus | |
The legal boys have won again | |
And you and I have lost | |
They can't tell us how it happened | |
But they'll let us know the cost | |
Oh they'll let us know the cost, oh yeah | |
There's a lot I'd like to tell you | |
But I can't get past your guards | |
I do not speak their language | |
And they hold all the cards | |
I would rather call you darling | |
Than defendant in the case | |
But lovers left here long ago | |
And clients took their place |

Your accountant called this morning | |
There was springtime in his heart | |
He couldn' t wait to tell me | |
How he' d pulled our lives apart | |
And the letter from your lawyer | |

Walking round the lonely rooms | |
