Billy Joel Lyrics are incredible... Any special meanings to you...Got Favorites?  email this discussion to a friend?

Yes, I had a Billy Joel Song in my wedding. "You're my Home" was one of those songs hidden somewhere on an album that I fell in love with the lyrics......
"I'll never be a stranger and I'll never be alone, wherever we're together that's my home.
Home can be the Pennsylvania Turnpike, Indiana's early morning dew, high up in the hills of California... home is just another word for you."
I thought it was a great little love song. We couldn't find the music so we had a bar singer(his first time singing in a church) who couldn't read music anyway listen to it and he nailed it perfectly. It was beautiful! People thought he had written it for us....
There are so many songs that I have felt the lyrics were so incredibly thoughtful... lyrics like:


Well, its been quite a while since i lifted my head
And i'm sure the light will hurt my eyes
I see the ways that I've been spending my days and
reality has caught me by surprise
I was dreaming of tomorrow so I sacrificed today and it sure was a grand waste of time
But in spite of the truth thats been thrown in my face,
I just can't get you out of my mind
But I've got to begin again and I don't know where to start
Yes, I've got to begin again and its hard........


In every heart there is a room, a sanctuary safe and strong
To heal the wounds from lovers past until a new one comes along.......



Sometimes it feels as though I'm running on ice
Taking me twice as long
Kinda got the feeling that I'm running on ice
where did my life go wrong
You've got to run..........

Do you have lyrics that have been extra special to you at a certain time?

There are SO MANY for me! There's this song called "And so it goes" that I love (actually I've just realized that you've quoted it above... in every heart there is a room...), and "Vienna" just kills me it is so touching. (You can get what you want or you can just get old).

I always wanted someone to think about me in reference to "Always a Woman." "I go to extremes" speaks to me because the lyrics sound like almost a textbook definition of bipolar to me. I know Billy Joel has had alcohol issues ongoing but I don't know if he has bipolar or any other mental issues. It sure sounds like he understands them, though.

"We didn't start the fire" is powerful. "State of Grace" is killer to me because it reminds me of an old love of mine, sadly, because it's not a happy love song... but I am happily married now, for nearly 7 years.

And, I also like the running on ice song you referenced above too. And, "I don't want to be alone anymore." And, "Sleeping with the Television On." And, "Scenes from an Italian restaurant." And don't even get me started on "The Stranger."

Can you tell that I love this man? His music is simply amazing to me!!!!!!!
