Some people stay far away from the door If there's a chance… - Billy Joel

" "
Some people stay far away from the door
If there's a chance of it opening up
They hear a voice in the hall outside
And hope that it just passes by.
Some people live with the fear of a touch
And the anger of having been a fool.
They will not listen to anyone
So nobody tells them a lie.

Additional quotes by Billy Joel

Tell her about it
Let her know how much you care
When she can't be with you
Tell her you wish you were there.
Tell her about it.
Every day before you leave
Pay her some attention
Give her something to believe.

You can get just so much
From a good thing.
You can linger too long
In your dreams.
Say goodbye to the
Oldies but goodies.
You know the good ole days weren't always good,
And tomorrow ain't as bad as it seems.

Goodnight, my angel
Now it's time to dream.
And dream how wonderful your life will be.
Someday your child may cry
And if you sing this lullabye
Then in your heart
There will always be a part of me. Someday we'll all be gone.
But lullabyes go on and on...
They never die.
That's how you
And I
Will be.

Some people stay far away from the door If there's a chance of it opening up They hear a voice in the hall outside And hope that it just passes by. S… - Billy Joel
