What other songs in the career of Elton John did he sing about a woman? He sang Little Jeannie, and Tiny Dancer. Any Others?
He also collaberated with Kiki Dee and sang "Don't Go Breaking My Heart". Also, he sang "Island Girl". I know that his lifelong musical partner, Bernie Taubin, wrote the lyrics, and Elton wrote the music. It's no secret that Elton struggled with his homosexual desires before
"coming out". Those songs about women probably were recorded before he came out, as it was unusual back then for people to be LGTB. Just curious, is all.

Quite a few. And he came out publicly in 1976, but most people who knew him were aware of his sexuality long before that.
Which means there weren't many songs about women that he sang while "struggling."
Just among official singles (and B-sides), try these:
Lady Samantha
Rock and Roll Madonna
Crocodile Rock
Elderberry Wine
Sick City
One Day at a Time
Someone Saved My Life Tonight
Grow Some Funk of Your Own
Those are just the ones released before he "officially" came out.

Candle in the Wind is about Marilyn Monroe, and then later he re-wrote it for Princess Di, but I don't think the Princess Di version makes much sense.
Crocodile rock is about dancing with Susie.
