You're having a hard time and lately you don't feel so good You're getting a bad reputation in your neighborhood. It's alright, it's alright Sometimes that's what it takes. You're only human, you're allowed to make your share of mistakes.
Billy Joel
In every heart there is a room, a sanctuary safe and strong, to heal the wounds from lovers past, until a new one comes along... So I would choose to be with you. That's if the choice were mine to make. But you can make decisions too. And you can have this heart to break. And so it goes, and so it goes. And you're the only one who knows.
Billy Joel
I don't want some pretty face to tell me pretty lies, all I want is someone to believe.

Billy Joel
You can walk away from your mistakes You can turn your back on what you do Just a little smile is all it takes And you can have your cake and eat it too. Loneliness will get to you somehow But ev'rybody loves you now.
Billy Joel
Hot funk, cold punk, even if it's old junk, it's still rock and roll to me.
Billy Joel
I definitely prefer being a lover than a fighter.
