Billy Joel - James lyrics

rate me

James

We were always friends from our childhood days.

And we made our plans,

And we had to go our sep'rate ways.

I went on the road,

You pursued an education.

James

Do you like your life?

Can you find release?

And will you ever change?

Will you ever write your masterpiece?

Are you still in school

Living up to expectations?

James

You were so relied upon,

Ev'rybody knows how hard you tried.

Hey

Oh, look at what a job you've done,

Carrying the weight of fam'ly pride.

James

You've been well behaved, you've been working hard

But will you always stay

Someone else's dream of who you are?

Do what's good for you

Or you're not good for anybody.

James

I went on the road,

You pursued an education.

James

How you gonna know for sure?

Ev'rything was so well organized.

Hey

Oh, now ev'rything is so secure,

and ev'rybody else is satisfied.

James

Do you like your life?

Can you find release?

And will you ever change?

When will you write your masterpiece?

Do what's good for you

Or you're not good for anybody.

James
