Lyrics by bernie taupin

Released as a uk b-side in june, 1973


I lived in a tenement six floors above

I lent you my records and I lent you my love

But you left me on the weekend without a by-your-leave

That?'s a dirty and a low-down trick

My folks all think you?'re mean


But I don?'t mind, that?'s kind of nifty

You always set those break-ups in the movies

And just like a light honey you put me out

Now I?'m gonna do my best

To get you back in the nest you came from



You can erase me if you want to

Turn your back in other men

But whenever you?'re ready

Honey, we?'ll go steady again



It?'s nasty without you in my little room

I miss you like crazy, please come back soon

I was joking with those things I said

I couldn?'t have been thinking

If you don?'t come back I think I?'ll crack

Just like my old ceiling
