Billy Joel - The Stanger lyrics
Your rating:
Well, we all have a face That we hide away forever, And we take them out and show ourselves When everyone has gone. Some are satin, some are steel, Some are silk, and some are leather. They're the faces of the stranger, But we love to try them on Well, we all fall in love, But we disregard the danger. Though we sahre so many secrets, There are some we never tell. Why were you so suprised That you never saw the stranger? Did you ever let your lover See the stranger in yourself? CHORUS Don't be afraid to try again. Everyone goes south, every now and then. Oooooh You've done it, why can't someone else? You should know by now, you've been there yourself. Once I used to believe I was such a great romancer. Then I came home to a woman That I could not recognize. When I pressed her for a reason, She refused to even answer. It was then I felt the stranger Kick me right between the eyes. Well, we all fall in love, But we disregard the danger. Though we sahre so many secrets, There are some we never tell. Why were you so suprised That you never saw the stranger? Did you ever let your lover See the stranger in yourself? CHORUS You may never understand How the stanger is inspired. But he isn't always evil, And he is not always wrong. Though you drown in good intentions, You will never quench the fire, You'll give in to your desire When the stanger comes along.
