The Stranger (Live) by Billy Joel

Well we all (1)________ a face
That we hide away forever
And we (2)________ them out
And show ourselves
When (3)________________ has gone
Some are satin some are steel
Some are silk and some are leather
They're the faces of the stranger
But we (4)________ 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 (5)__________ tell
Why (6)________ you so surprised
That you never saw the stranger
Did you ever let your lover see
The stranger in yourself?

Don't be (7)____________ to try again
Everyone (8)________ south
Every now and then
...
You've done it, why can't someone else?
You should know by now
You've (9)________ there yourself
Once I used to believe
I was such a (10)__________ romancer
Then I (11)________ home to a woman
That I (12)__________ not recognize
When I (13)______________ her for a reason
She (14)______________ to even answer
It was (15)________ I (16)________ the stranger
Kick me (17)__________ between the eyes
...
Well we all fall in love
But we disregard the danger
Though we (18)__________ so many secrets
There are some we (19)__________ tell
Why were you so surprised
That you never saw the stranger
Did you ever let (20)________ lover see
The stranger in yourself?
Don't be (21)____________ to try again
Everyone goes south
Every now and then
...
You've done it why can't someone else?
You should (22)________ by now
You've (23)________ (24)__________ yourself
You may never understand
How the stranger is inspired
But he isn't always evil
And he is not always wrong
Though you (25)__________ in good intentions
You will never (26)____________ the fire
You'll give in to your desire
When the stranger comes along
