据俺一哥们儿的诠释，这首歌写的是一已婚男人在发现妻子有外遇之后的切肤之痛。
俺这一哥们儿爱一女子多年，但这女子爱不上他，虽然俩人算是在各自左右多年，最后这女子爱上别人，跟这个别人结婚了。俺这哥们儿痛苦了好多日子，最后也还是参加了她的婚礼，现在自己也遇到了别的女人，而且也订婚了。
I guess that life goes on no matter what…
Sacrifice
Music by Elton John
Lyrics by Bernie Taupin
It's a human sign
When things go wrong
When the scent of her lingers
And temptation's strong
Into the boundary
Of each married man
Sweet deceit comes calling
And negativity lands
Cold cold heart
Hard done by you
Some things look better baby
Just passing through
And it's no sacrifice
Just a simple word
It's two hearts living
In two separate worlds
But it's no sacrifice
No sacrifice
It's no sacrifice at all
Mutual misunderstanding
After the fact
Sensitivity builds a prison
In the final act
We lose direction
No stone unturned
No tears to damn you
When jealousy burns
