The Stranger (Live) by Billy Joel

Well we all have a face
That we (1)________ away forever
And we take (2)________ out
And show ourselves
When everyone has gone
Some are satin some are steel
Some are (3)________ and (4)________ are leather
They're the (5)__________ of the stranger
But we (6)________ to try them on

Well we all (7)________ in love
But we disregard the danger
Though we share so (8)________ secrets
There are some we (9)__________ tell
Why were you so surprised
That you never saw the stranger
Did you ever let your lover see
The (10)________________ in yourself?

Don't be (11)____________ to try again
Everyone (12)________ south
Every now and then
...
You've done it, why can't someone else?
You (13)____________ know by now
You've been there yourself
Once I (14)________ to believe
I was (15)________ a great romancer
Then I came (16)________ to a woman
That I could not recognize
When I pressed her for a reason
She refused to even answer
It was then I (17)________ the stranger
Kick me (18)__________ between the eyes
...
Well we all fall in love
But we (19)__________________ the danger
Though we (20)__________ so many secrets
There are (21)________ we never tell
Why were you so surprised
That you never saw the stranger
Did you (22)________ let (23)________ lover see
The stranger in yourself?
Don't be afraid to try again
Everyone (24)________ 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 (25)____________ evil
And he is not always wrong
Though you drown in good intentions
You will (26)__________ quench the fire
You'll give in to your desire
When the stranger (27)__________ along
