Billy Joel – The Stranger

Billy Joel – The Stranger Lyrics

Artist: Billy Joel
Song: The Stranger

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 a stranger
But we’d love to try them on

Well, we all fall in love
But we disregard the danger
Though we share so many secrets
There are some we never tell

Why were you so surprised
That you never saw the stranger?
Did you ever let your lover
See the stranger in yourself?

Don’t be afraid to try again
Everyone goes south every now and then, ooh
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 share so many secrets
There are some we never tell
Why were you so surprised
That you never saw the stranger?

Did you ever let your lover
See the stranger in yourself?
Don’t be afraid to try again
Everyone goes south every now and then, ooh

You’ve done it
Why can’t someone else
You should know by now
You’ve been there yourself

You may never understand
How the stranger 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 stranger comes along
