Music Source Lyrics - Billy Joel

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 the stranger 

But we 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?

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Don't be afraid to try again 

Every one goes south 

Every now and then 

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 

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 isn't 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
