More quotes by Billy Joel
You look so polished from your hair down to your toes, but still your finger's gonna pick your nose.
Billy Joel
If it seems like I've been lost in 'lets remember', If it seems I'm gettin' older and missin' my younger days, well you shoulda known me much better, cause the past is something that never got in my way.
Billy Joel
Someday we'll all be gone, but lullabies go on and on / They never die, that's how you and I will be
Billy Joel
Some love is just a lie of the heart, the cold remains of what began with a passionate heart.
Billy Joel
I did write a letter to the archdiocese who'd banned the song, Only the Good Die Young, asking them to ban my next record.

Artist - musicians, painters, writers, poets, always seem to have had the most accurate perception of what is really going on around them, not the official version or the popular perception of contemporary life.
Billy Joel
They say that these are not the best of times, but they're the only times I've ever known. And I believe there is a time for meditation in cathedrals of our own. Now I have seen that sad surrender in my lovers eyes...and I can only stand apart and sympathize...for we are only what our situations hand us...it's either sadness or euphoria.
Billy Joel
All she wanted was sax.
Billy Joel
I see the winos talking to themselves and I can understand.
Billy Joel
In an age of incompetence, I've been able to last in this crazy business. I actually know how to play my ax and write a song. That's my job.
Billy Joel
I keep telling people: Don't make me the poster boy for AA because I don't know a lot about sobriety, but I do know a lot about drinking.
Billy Joel
Those who have expressed doubts and misgivings about their ability to live this kind of life shouldn't try, because being a musician is not something you chose to be, it is something you are.
Billy Joel
You've given me the best of you, but now I need the rest of you.
Billy Joel
If you search for truthfulness, you might as well be blind.
Billy Joel
Most people are satisfied with the junk food being sold as music.
Billy Joel
Like a boxer in a title fight, you have to walk in that ring alone.
Billy Joel
If I traveled all my life And I never get to stop and settle down Long as I have you by my side There's a roof above and good walls all around You're my castle, you're my cabin and my instant pleasure dome I need you in my house 'cause you're my home.
Billy Joel
And you know that when the truth is told that you can get what you want or you can just get old.
Billy Joel
It's really hard to make a living as a musician. It's almost impossible.
Billy Joel
She can kill with a smile. She can wound with her eyes. She can ruin your faith with her casual lies. And she only reveals what she wants you to see. She hides like a child, but she's always a woman to me.
