Whats this about?

I just realised after searching the lyrics, that it is quite a trend in almost all of Elton John's songs that there is a lot of symbolic phrases... very cheem ones. there is also roughly enough clues to identify the theme, but there would be some phrases that are also semingly really irrelevant to the theme. the songs are nice; good music and singing and the cheem lyrics may make it sound deep, but when it comes to finding meaning in the song... thats where its loses out.

heres 2 examples of songs from the album Love songs 1995 - 'Sacrifice' and 'Daniel'.

SACRIFICE
i figured out the theme to be about a troubled marriage in which infidelity comes in. bold words are those that are effective clues to the theme. red words are those that i really dont know what it means or refers to. green are those that seems irrelevant.

verse 1
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

Chorus
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

verse 2
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

DANIEL
this one is quite clearly about a brother, or very close friend, going away for quite a long time. this time, the red ones dont make sense or dont link to the theme. green is just unnecessary.

Verse 1
Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for spain
Oh and I can see Daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like Daniel must be the clouds in my eyes.


Verse 2
They say spain is pretty though Ive never been
Well daniel says its the best place that hes ever seen
Oh and he should know, hes been there enough
Lord I miss daniel, oh I miss him so much

Chorus
Daniel my brother you are older than me
Do you still feel the pain of the scars that wont heal
Your eyes have died but you see i
Daniel youre more than a star in the face of the sky


Daniel is travelling tonight on a plane
I can see the red tail lights heading for spain
Oh and I can see daniel waving goodbye
God it looks like daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes
Oh God it looks like daniel, must be the clouds in my eyes

anyone has good suggestions on what the red phrases could mean and refer to?

SP's library is a great source for my music library. in fact, most of my songs on the laptop are ripped off the borrowed album CDs. its so much more convenient than buying them at stores. its free, just located at my school, and returned after a week so the CDs doesnt clutter up space at home. also, i dont need to consider and analyse so much before getting the CD and wont regret if the songs are not nice - somehting that would be if i had to pay to get the CDs. the disadvantage though, is that i dont have access to the newer recently released albums. but songs are never obsolete.

borrowing and trying out albums from the library over the year has left me with a considerable collection of nice songs and good albums. its time i should list out some of the best ones. these albums are ranked based on how many favourite songs there are, and how much of the songs are at least nice to hear. not having many tracks i would to skip. also considering the overall 'niceness' of all the songs. as can be seen, my top albums come from a mix of different genres.
