Post a lyric that fits your mood 29.5 (Billy Joel Edition) All the waiters in your grand cafe
Leave their tables when you blink Every dog must have his everyday Every drunk must have his drink Don’t wait for answers Just take your chances Don’t ask me why All your life you had to stand in line Still you’re standing on your feet All your choices made you change your mind Now your calender’s complete Don’t wait for answers Just take your chances Don’t ask me why You can say the human heart Is only make-believe And I am only fighting fire with fire But you are still a victim Of the accidents you leave As sure as I’m a victim of desire All the servants in your new hotel Throw their roses at your feet Fool them all but baby I can tell You’re no stranger to the street Don’t ask for favors Don’t talk to strangers Don’t ask me why 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 me why Don’t ask me why In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular. |

She cuts you once
she cuts you twice But still you believe The wound is so fresh you can taste the blood BUt you don't have strength to leave You've been bought you've been sold You've been locked outside the door But you stand there pleadin' With your insides bleedin' 'Cause you deep down want some more Then she says she wants forgiveness It's such a clever masquerade She's so good with her stiletto You don't even see the blade She cuts you hard she cuts you deep She's got so much skill She's so fascinating that you're still there waiting When she comes back for the kill You've been slashed in the face You've been left there to bleed You want to run away But you know you're gonna stay 'Cause she gives you what you need Then she says she wants affection While she searches for the vein She's so good with her stiletto You don't really mind the pain She cuts you out she cuts you down She carves up your life But you won't do nothng As she keeps on cutting 'Cause you know you love the knife You've been bought you've been sold You've been locked outside the door But you stand there pleadin' With your insides bleedin' 'Cause you deep down want some more Then she says she needs affection While she searches for the vein She's so good with her stiletto You don't really mind the pain | |

Oh, oh, oh
For the longest time Oh, oh, oh For the longest time If you said goodbye to me tonight There would still be music left to write What else could I do I'm so inspired by you That hasn't happened for the longest time Once I thought my innocence was gone Now I know that happiness goes on That's where you found me When you put your arms around me I haven't been there for the longest time Oh, oh, oh For the longest time Oh, oh, oh For the longest I'm that voice you're hearing in the hall And the greatest miracle of all Is how I need you And how you needed me too That hasn't happened for the longest time Maybe this won't last very long But you feel so right And I could be wrong Maybe I've been hoping too hard But I've gone this far And it's more than I hoped for Who knows how much further we'll go on Maybe I'll be sorry when you're gone I'll take my chances I forgot how nice romance is I haven't been there for the longest time I had second thoughts at the start I said to myself Hold on to your heart Now I know the woman that you are You're wonderful so far And it's more than I hoped for I don't care what consequence it brings I have been a fool for lesser things I want you so bad I think you ought to know that I intend to hold you for the longest time    In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular. |

For Byron
In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep From the mountains of faith To a river so deep I must be looking for something Something scared I lost (not sacred) But the river is wide And it's too hard to cross And even though I know the river is wide I walk down every evening and I stand on the shore And try to cross to the opposite side So I can finally find out what I've been looking for 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 I don't know why I go walking at night But now I'm tired and I don't want to walk anymore I hope it doesn't take the rest of my life Until I find what it is that I've been looking for In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep Through the jungle of doubt To a river so deep I know I'm searching for something Something so undefined That it can only be seen By the eyes of the blind In the middle of the night I'm not sure about a life after this God knows I've never been a spiritual man Baptized by the fire, I wade into the river That runs to the promised land In the middle of the night I go walking in my sleep Through the desert of truth To the river so deep We all end in the ocean We all start in the streams We're all carried along By the river of dreams In the middle of the night In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular. |

You went uptown riding in your limousine
In your fine Park Avenue clothes You had the Dom Perignon in your hand And the spoon up your nose And when you wake up in the morning With your head on fire And your eyes too bloody to see Go on and cry in your coffee But don't come bitchin' to me Because you had to be a big shot didn't you You had to open up your mouth You had to be a big shot didn't you All your friends were so knocked out You had to have the last word last night You know what everything's about You and to have a white hot spotlight You had to be a big shot last night They were all impressed with your Halston dress And the people you knew at Elaine's And the story of your latest success Kept 'em so entertained But now you jsut can't remember All the things you said And you're not sure you want to know I'll give you one hint honey You sure did put on a show Yes yes you had to be a big shot didn't you You had to prove it to the crowd You had to be a big shot didn't you All your friends were so knocked out You hand to the last word last night You're so much fun to be around You had to have the front page bold type You had to be a big shot last night Well it's no big sin to stick your two cents in If you know when to leave it alone But you went over the line You couldn't see it was time to go home No no no no no no you had to be a big shot didn't you You had to open up your mouth You had to be a big shot didn't you All your friends were so knocked out You had to have the last word last night So much fun to be around You had to have a white hot spotlight You had to be a big shot last night | |

She waits for me at night, she waits for me in silence
She gives me all her tenderness and takes away my pain And so far she hasn't run, though I swear she's had her moments She still believes in miracles while others cry in vain 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 She turns to me sometimes and asks me what I'm dreaming And I realize I must have gone a million miles away And I ask her how she knew to reach out for me that moment And she smiles because it's understood there are no words to say It's all about soul It's all about knowing what someone is feeling The woman's got soul The power of love and the power of healing This life isn't fair It's gonna get dark, it's gonna get cold You've got to be tough, but that ain't enough It's all about soul There are people who have lost every trace of human kindness There are many who have fallen, there are some who still survive She comes to me at night and she tells me her desires And she gives me all the love I need to keep my faith alive It's all about soul It's all about joy that comes out of sorrow It's all about soul Who's standing now and who's standing tomorrow You've got to be hard Hard as the rock in that old rock 'n' roll song But that's only part, you know in your heart It's all about soul  In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular. |

Woah! I LOVE Billy Joel! In fact I might go and start a thread over at Non-Prince about him!
Billy Joel songs I love: PRESSURE You have to learn to pace yourself PRESSURE You're just like everybody else PRESSURE You've only had to run so far, so good But you will come to a place Where the only thing you feel Are loaded guns in your face And you'll have to deal with PRESSURE You used to call me paranoid PRESSURE But even you can not avoid PRESSURE You turned the tap dance into your crusade Now here you are with your faith And your Peter Pan advice You have no scars on your face And you cannot handle PRESSURE All grown up and no place to go Psych 1, Psych 2, what do you know? All your life is Channel 13 Sesame Street, what does it mean? (I'll tell you what it means) PRESSURE PRESSURE Don't ask for help, you're all alone PRESSURE You'll have to answer to your own PRESSURE I'm sure you'll have some cosmic rationale But here you are in the ninth Two men out and three men on Nowhere to look but inside Where we all respond to PRESSURE PRESSURE All your life is Time Magazine I read it too, what does it mean? PRESSURE!!!!! I'm sure you'll have some cosmic rationale But here you are with your faith And your Peter Pan advice You have no scars on your face And you cannot handle PRESSURE PRESSURE PRESSURE One, two, three, four PRESSURE!!!!! STILETTO She cuts you once, she cuts you twice But still you believe The wound is so fresh you can taste the blood But you don't have strength to leave You've been bought, you've been sold You've been locked outside the door But you stand there pleadin', With your insides bleedin', 'Cause you deep down want some more Then she says she wants forgiveness It's such a clever masquerade She's so good with her stiletto You don't even see the blade She cuts you hard, she cuts you deep, She's got so much skill She's so fascinating that you're still there waiting When she comes back for the kill You've been slashed in the face You've been left there to bleed You want to run away But you know you're gonna stay 'Cause she gives you what you need Then she says she needs affection While she searches for the vein She's so good with her stiletto You don't really mind the pain She cuts you out, she cuts you down She carves up your life But you won't do nothng As she keeps on cutting 'Cause you know you love the knife You've been bought, you've been sold You've been locked outside the door But you stand there pleadin' With your insides bleedin' 'Cause you deep down want some more Then she says she wants affection While she searches for the vein She's so good with her stiletto, You don't really mind the pain  Billy Joel! | |

Leave A Tender Moment Alone
Even though I'm in love Sometimes I get so afraid I'll say something so wrong Just to have something to say I know the moment isn't right To tell the girl a comical line To keep the conversation light I guess I'm just frightened out of my mind But if that's how I feel Then it's the best feeling I've ever known It's undeniably real Leave a tender moment alone Yes I know I'm in love But just when I ought to relax I put my foot in my mouth Cause I'm just avoiding the facts If the girl gets too close If I need some room to escape When the moment arose I'd tell her it's all a mistake But that's not how I feel No that's not the woman I've known She's undeniably real So leave a tender moment alone But it's not only me Breaking down when the tension gets high Just when I'm in a serious mood She is suddenly quite and shy Leave a tender moment alone Leave it alone I know the moment isn't right To hold my emotions inside To change the attitude tonight I've run out of places to hide And if that's how I feel Then it's the best feeling I've ever known It's undeniably real Leave a tender moment alone You got to leave a tender moment alone Leave a tender moment alone Leave it alone You got to leave a tender moment alone Leave a tender moment alone  God bless everyone. NO exceptions. | |

She's Always A Woman
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 can lead you to live She can take you or leave you She can ask for the truth But she'll never believe you And she'll take what you give her as long as it's free She steals like a thief But she's always a woman to me Oh, she takes care of herself She can wait if she wants She's ahead of her time Oh, and she never gives out And she never gives in She just changes her mind She will promise you more Than the Garden of Eden Then she'll carelessly cut you And laugh while you're bleedin' But she'll bring out the best And the worst you can be Blame it all on yourself Cause she's always a woman to me She is frequently kind And she's suddenly cruel She can do as she pleases She's nobody's fool But she can't be convicted She's earned her degree And the most she will do Is throw shadows at you But she's always a woman to me God bless everyone. NO exceptions. | |

Anthony works in the grocery store
Savin' his pennies for someday Mama Leone left a note on the door, She said, "Sonny, move out to the country." Workin' too hard can give me A heart attack You oughta know by now Who needs a house out in Hackensack? 
Is that what you get with your money? It seems such a waste of time If that's what it's all about If that's movin' up then I'm movin' out. Sergeant O'Leary is walkin' the beat At night he becomes a bartender He works at Mister Cacciatore's down On Sullivan Street Across from the medical center He's tradin' in his Checy for a Cadillac You oughta know by now And if he can't drive With a broken back At least he can polish the fenders It seems such a waste of time If that's what it's all about If that's movin' up then I'm movin' out. You should never argue with a crazy mind You oughta know by now You can pay Uncle Sam with overtime Is that all you get for your money? It seems such a waste of time If that's what it's all about If that's movin' up then I'm movin' out. In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular. |

She gives me all her tenderness and takes away my pain And so far she hasn't run, though I swear she's had her moments She still believes in miracles while others cry in vain 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 She turns to me sometimes and asks me what I'm dreaming And I realize I must have gone a million miles away And I ask her how she knew to reach out for me that moment And she smiles because it's understood there are no words to say It's all about soul It's all about knowing what someone is feeling The woman's got soul The power of love and the power of healing This life isn't fair It's gonna get dark, it's gonna get cold You've got to be tough, but that ain't enough It's all about soul There are people who have lost every trace of human kindness There are many who have fallen, there are some who still survive She comes to me at night and she tells me her desires And she gives me all the love I need to keep my faith alive It's all about soul It's all about joy that comes out of sorrow It's all about soul Who's standing now and who's standing tomorrow You've got to be hard Hard as the rock in that old rock 'n' roll song But that's only part, you know in your heart It's all about soul[/color]  Proud member of Prince's cult for 20 years! | |

My ultimate Billy Joel feel-good, melancholic, listening-to-this-in-the-middle-of-the-night-when-I-can't-get-no-sleep-and-I-miss-that-special-somebody song :
Piano_man: It's nine o'clock on a Saturday The Regular crowd shuffles in There's an old man sitting next to me Makin' love to his tonic and gin He says, "Son, can you play me a memory I'm not really sure how it goes But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete When I wore a younger mans clothes" La la la, de de da La la, de de da da dum Chorus: Sing us a song, you're the piano man Sing us a song tonight Well, we're all in the mood for a melody And you've got us feelin' alright Now John at the bar is a friend of mine He gets me my drinks for free And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke But there's someplace that he'd rather be He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me." As the smile ran away from his face "Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star If I could get out of this place" Oh, la la la, de de da La la, de de da da dum Now Paul is a real estate novelist Who never had time for a wife And he's talkin' with Davy, who's still in the navy And probably will be for life And the waitress is practicing politics As the businessmen slowly get stoned Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness But it's better than drinkin' alone Chorus sing us a song you're the piano man sing us a song tonight well we're all in the mood for a melody and you got us feeling alright It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday And the manager gives me a smile 'Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see To forget about life for a while And the piano, it sounds like a carnival And the microphone smells like a beer And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar And say, "Man, what are you doin' here." Oh, la la la, de de da La la, de de da da dum Chorus: sing us a song you're the piano man sing us a song tonight well we're all in the mood for a melody and you got us feeling alright  and  You don't scare me; i got kids | |

I've seen the lights go out on Broadway-
I saw the Empire State laid low. And life went on beyond the Palisades, They all bought bright Cadillacs- And left there long ago. We held a concert out in Brooklyn- To watch the Island bridges blow. They turned our power down, And drove us underground- But we went right on with the show... I've seen the lights go out on Broadway- I saw the ruins at my feet, You know we almost didn't notice it- We'd see it all the time on Forty-Second Street. They burned the churches up in Harlem- Like in that Spanish Civil War- The flames were everywhere, But no one really cared- It always burned up there before.... I saw the lights go out on Broadway- I watched the mighty skyline fall. The boats were waiting at the Battery, The union went on strike- They never sailed at all. They sent a carrier out from Norfolk- And picked the Yankees up for free. They said that Queens could stay, They blew the Bronx away- And sank Manhattan out to sea.... You know those lights were bright on Broadway- But that was so many years ago... Before we all lived here in Florida- Before the Mafia took over Mexico. There are not many who remember- They say a handful still survive... To tell the world about... The way the lights went out, And keep the memory alive.... | |

Saturday night and you're still hangin' around
Tired of living in your one horse town you'd like to find a little hole in the ground, for awhile.. So you go to the village in your tie dyed jeans And you stare at the junkies and the closet queens It's like some pornographic magazine And you smile (chorus) Captain Jack will get you high tonight And take you to your special island Captain Jack will get you by tonight Just a little push, and you'll be smilin' Oh yeah,... Your sister's gone out, she's on a date You just sit at home and masturbate Your phone is gonna ring soon, but you just can't wait For that call So you stand on the corner in your New English clothes and you look so polished from your hair down to your toes Ah but still your fingers gonna pick your nose After all,.. (chorus) So you decide to take a holiday You got your tape deck and your brand new Chevrolet Ah, there ain't no place to go anyway What for? So you got everything, ah, but nothing's cool They just found your father in the swimming pool And you guess you won't be going back to school Anymore. (chorus) So you play your albums, and you smoke your pot and you meet your girlfriend in the parking lot Oh but still you're aching for the things you haven't got What went wrong? And if you can't understand why your world is so dead, why you've got to keep in style and feed your head Well you're 21 and still your mother makes your bed, And that's too long (chorus) | |

I remember once in High School we had this hippie English teacher who made us write about song lyrics as if they were poetry and I chose this song 
When you look into my eyes and you see the crazy gypsy in my soul it always comes as a surprise when i feel my withered roots begin to grow well i never had a place that I could call my very own but that's all right my love cuz you're my home. when you touch my weary head and you tell me everything will be all right You say use my body for your bed and my love will keep you warm throughout the night well i'll never be a stranger and i'll never be alone wherever we're together that's my home. Home could be the Pennsylvania turnpike Indiana's early morning dew high up in the hills of California home is just another word for you Well I never had a place that i could call my very own but that's all right my love cuz you're my home If i travel all my life and i never get 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 cuz you're my home,.. you're my home. We didn't start the edit [This message was edited Mon Jun 28 17:57:28 2004 by 2the9s] | |
