Billy Joel: Cytaty po angielsku

“Yesterday you were an only child
Now your ghosts have gone away.
You can kill them in the classic style.
Now you, "parlez vous francais"
Don't look for answers
You took your chances
Don't ask my why.”

Streetlife Serenader.
Song lyrics, Streetlife Serenade (1974)

“In the middle of the night
I go walking in my sleep
Through the valley of fear
To a river so deep.
And I've been searching for something
Taken out of my soul
Something I would never lose
Something somebody stole.”

The River of Dreams.
Song lyrics, River of Dreams (1993)

“It's all about soul.
It's all about faith and a deeper devotion.
It's all about soul.
'Cause under the love is a stronger emotion.
She's got to be strong
'Cause so many things getting out of control
Should drive her away.
So why does she stay?
It's all about soul.”

Piano Man.
Song lyrics, Piano Man (1973)

“But darling there you go, slipping away into a state of grace
Granted, this world is not a perfect place.
Still it's the world that I'm in.
Here I am talking while you don't hear a word I say.
Knowing you're watching me from far away
Somewhere that I've never been.”

State of Grace.
Song lyrics, Storm Front (1989)

“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.”

She's Always a Woman.
Song lyrics, The Stranger (1977)

“Late at night
When it's dark and cold
I reach out
For someone to hold
When I'm blue
When I'm lonely
She comes through
She's the only one who can
My baby grand
Is all I need.”

It's not the real thing
It's just a fantasy
It's not the real thing.
But sometimes a fantasy
Is all you need.”

Sometimes a Fantasy.
Song lyrics, Glass Houses (1980)

“Learned stickball as a formal education.
Lost a lot of fights
But it taught me how to lose O. K..
Oh, I heard about sex
But not enough.
I found you could dance
And still look tough anyway.
Oh yes I did.
I found out a man ain't just being macho.
Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food, drank a lot of take home pay.
I thought I was the Duke of Earl
When I made it with a red-haired girl
In the Chevrolet.”

Billy Joel

Keeping the Faith.
Song lyrics, An Innocent Man (1983)

“Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start.
And they may not want it to end
But it will, it's just a question of when.
I've lived long enough to have learned
The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned.
But that won't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust.”

A Matter of Trust.
Song lyrics, The Bridge (1986)

“I remember those days hanging out
At the village green
Engineer boots, leather jackets
And tight blue jeans
Drop a dime in the box play the
Song about New Orleans
Cold beer, hot lights
My sweet romantic teenage nights.”

I'm so inspired by you.
That hasn't happened for the longest time.”

The Longest Time.
Song lyrics, An Innocent Man (1983)

They said the melancholy blues were dead and gone
But only songs like these
Played in minor keys
Keep those memories holding on.”

Baby Grand.
Song lyrics, The Bridge (1986)

“I am the entertainer and I know just where I stand
Another serenader and another long haired band
Today I am your champion, I may have won your hearts,
But I know the game, you'll forget my name,
And I won't be here in another year
If I don't stay on the charts.”

Oh, and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind.”

She's Always a Woman.
Song lyrics, The Stranger (1977)

“Hiding up in the mountains
Laying low in the canyons
Goin' nowhere in the streets
With the Spanish names
Makin' love with the natives
In their Hollywood places
Making up for all the time gone by
Los Angelenos
All came from somewhere.”

Los Angelenos.
Song lyrics, Streetlife Serenade (1974)

“So before we end and then begin
We'll drink a toast to how it's been
A few more hours to be complete
A few more nights on satin sheets
A few more times that I can say
I've loved these days.”

I've Loved These Days.
Song lyrics, Turnstiles (1976)

“Brenda and Eddie were the popular steadies
And the king and the queen of the prom
Riding around with the car top down and the radio on
Nobody looked any finer
Or was more of a hit at the Parkway Diner
We never knew we could want more than that out of life
Surely Brenda and Eddie would always know how to survive.”

Scenes from an Italian Restaurant.
Song lyrics, The Stranger (1977)

“Some people stay far away from the door
If there's a chance of it opening up
They hear a voice in the hall outside
And hope that it just passes by.
Some people live with the fear of a touch
And the anger of having been a fool.
They will not listen to anyone
So nobody tells them a lie.”

An Innocent Man.
Song lyrics, An Innocent Man (1983)

“She's got a way about her
I don't know what it is.
But I know that I can't live without her.
She's got a way of pleasin'
I don't know what it is
But there doesn't have to be a reason anyway.”

She's Got a Way.
Song lyrics, Cold Spring Harbor (1971)

“You might have heard I run with a dangerous crowd
We ain't too pretty we ain't too proud
We might be laughing a bit too loud
But that never hurt no one.
Come on Virginia show me a sign
Send up a signal I'll throw you the line.
The stained-glass curtain you're hiding behind
Never lets in the sun.
And only the good die young.”

Only the Good Die Young.
Song lyrics, The Stranger (1977)

“Goodnight, my angel
Time to close your eyes.
And save these questions for another day.
I think I know what you've been asking me.
I think you know what I've been trying to say.
I promised I would never leave you.
And you should always know
Wherever you may go
No matter where you are
I never will be far away.”

Lullabye (Goodnight, My Angel).
Song lyrics, River of Dreams (1993)

“She's got style and she's got her own money
So she's not another honey you can quickly disarm
She's got the eyes that make you realize
She won't be hypnotized by your usual charm.
You've got your plan of attack
That won't attract the modern woman
When you're an old fashioned man
She understands the things you're doin'
She's a modern woman.”

There's an old man sitting next to me
Making love to his tonic and gin.”

Piano Man.
Song lyrics, Piano Man (1973)

“This is the time to remember
'Cause it will not last forever.
These are the days to hold on to
'Cause we won't, although we'll want to.
This is the time,
But time is gonna change.
You've given me the best of you
But now I need the rest of you.”

This Is the Time.
Song lyrics, The Bridge (1986)

“We could have gone all the way to the Great Wall of China
If you'd only had a little more faith in me.
In lieu of diamonds, gold and platinum, reminders will still shine bright.
All the king's men and all the king's horses
Can't put you together the way you used to be.
We could have been standing on the Great Wall of China.”

“They will tell you, you can't sleep alone in strange place.
Then they'll tell you, you can't sleep with somebody else.
Ah, but sooner or later you sleep in your own space.
Either way, it's okay, you wake with yourself.”

To get at least as far as their old man got
But something happened on the way to that place
They threw an American flag in our face.”
