If I traveled all my life And I never get to stop and settle down Long as I have you by my side There's a roof above and good walls all around You're… - 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.

You're having a hard time and lately you don't feel so good;
You're getting a bad reputation in your neighborhood.
It's alright, it's alright;
Sometimes that's what it takes.
You're only human, you're allowed to make your share of mistakes.

And the waitress is practicing politics
As the businessmen slowly get stoned
Yes they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
But it's better than drinking alone.
