Billy Joel - Somewhere Along The Line lyrics

rate me

Well it's a rainy night in Paris

And I'm sitting by the Seine

It's a pleasure to be soaking

In the European rain

Now my belly's full of fancy food and wine

But in the morning there'll be hell to pay

Somewhere along the line

Sweet Virginia Cigarette

Burning in my hand

Well you used to be a friend of mine

But now I understand

You've been eating up inside me for some time

But I know your gonna get me

Somewhere along the line

Somewhere along the line

Well I know it's just a matter of time

When the fun falls through and the rent comes due

Somewhere along the line

Well, you know I love my woman

And I would not let her down

And I did my share of lovin'

When I used to get around

Now I'm satisfied that she is lookin' fine

But you pay for your satisfaction

Somewhere along the line

Hey, it's good to be a young man

And to live the way you please

Yes, a young man is the king

Of every kingdom that he sees

There's an old and feeble man not far behind

But it surely will catch up to him

Somewhere along the line
