We held the coastline
They held the highlands
And they were sharp
As sharp as knives
They heard the hum of our motors
They counted the rotors
And waited for us to arrive.
And we would all go down together
We said we'd all go down together
Yes we would all go down together.

Additional quotes by Billy Joel

Didn't I say I wasn't ready for romance?
Didn't we promise we would only be friends?
And so we danced, though it was only a slow dance.
I started breaking my promises right there and then.<p>Didn't I swear there would be no complications?
Didn't you want someone who's seen it all before?
Now that you're here, it's not the same situation,
Suddenly, I don't remember the rules anymore.<p>This night is mine.
It's only you and I.
Tomorrow is a long time away;
This night can last forever.
