Lyrics by bernie taupin
Available on the album sleeping with the past
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
