Sing us a song you're the piano man. Sing us a song tonight. Cause we're all in the mood for a melody, And you've got us feeling all right.
I've come to realize that life is not a musical comedy, it's a Greek tragedy.
You can speak your mind But not on my time.
You want to give people a reason to hate my guts more? I'm making more money.
You've got your passion. You've got your pride. But don't you know that only fools are satisfied? Dream on, but don't imagine they'll all come true.
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.
Don't go changing to try and please me You never let me down before Don't imagine you're too familiar And I don't see you anymore I would not leave you in times of trouble We never could have come this far I took the good times, I'll take the bad times I'll take you just the way you are Don't go trying some new fashion Don't change the color of your hair. . . . I could not love you any better I love you just the way you are
If I need a cause for celebration, Or a comfort I can use to ease my mind, I rely on my imagination, And I dream of an imaginary time.
Well I never had a place that I could call my very own/That's all right, my love, 'cause you're my home.
If you could only hear what I dream.
I may be an antique like the Stones, but antiques are valuable.
Though you can see when you're wrong, you know you can't always see when you're right.
You may never understand How the stranger is inspired For he is not always evil, And he is not always wrong.
We all have a face that we hide away forever, and we take them out and show ourselves when everyone has gone.
