[00:00.000] 作曲 : Billy Joel
[00:02.776]I went searching for the truth
[00:05.082]But in my innocence I found
[00:07.730]All the con men and their acrobats
[00:11.180]Who stomped me in the ground
[00:13.739]If I count up their percentages
[00:16.046]I know they're getting rich
[00:19.045]But they haven't taken everything
[00:21.950]Those paybacks are a b***h
[00:24.517]Though I've lost quite a lot
[00:26.572]I am still in control
[00:29.777]They can keep what they've got
[00:32.943]But they can't have my soul
[00:35.098]And if I don't have this all worked out
[00:38.367]Still I'm getting closer
[00:40.914]Getting closer
[00:47.646]I still have far to go no doubt
[00:51.279]But I'm getting closer
[00:56.053]Getting closer
[00:57.329]What was ripped off by professionals
[00:59.982]Is not all that it seems
[01:02.834]While I must live up to contracts
[01:05.458]I did not give up my dreams
[01:08.062]If I see it as experience
[01:10.955]It hasn't gone to waste
[01:13.518]Lately all the missing pieces
[01:16.008]Have been falling into place
[01:19.039]And if I could go back
[01:21.755]And start over somehow
[01:24.430]I would not change that much
[01:27.253]Knowing what I know now
[01:29.825]Thought there have been sins
[01:33.008]I will regret
[01:35.783]Still I'm getting close
[01:39.757]Getting closer
[01:42.179]I don't have all the answers yet
[01:46.549]But I'm getting closer
[01:50.604]Getting closer
[02:35.878]I'm a mark for every shyster
[02:38.394]From Topanga to Berlin
[02:41.454]And I should have learned
[02:43.116]To kick them out
[02:44.343]As soon as they crawled in
[02:46.764]So to every bank in Switzerland
[02:49.626]That stores my stolen youth
[02:52.115]I'm alright because despite the laws
[02:55.042]You cannot hide the truth
[02:57.538]And although you will say
[03:00.076]I am still too naive
[03:03.234]But I have not lost faith
[03:05.535]In the things I believe
[03:08.404]And if I don't have a this all worked out
[03:11.604]Still I'm getting closer
[03:18.253]Getting closer
[03:20.620]I still have far to go no doubt
[03:26.294]But I'm still getting closer
[03:29.175]Getting closer

作曲 : Billy Joel
I went searching for the truth
But in my innocence I found
All the con men and their acrobats
Who stomped me in the ground
If I count up their percentages
I know they're getting rich
But they haven't taken everything
Those paybacks are a b***h
Though I've lost quite a lot
I am still in control
They can keep what they've got
But they can't have my soul
And if I don't have this all worked out
Still I'm getting closer
Getting closer
I still have far to go no doubt
But I'm getting closer
Getting closer
What was ripped off by professionals
Is not all that it seems
While I must live up to contracts
I did not give up my dreams
If I see it as experience
It hasn't gone to waste
Lately all the missing pieces
Have been falling into place
And if I could go back
And start over somehow
I would not change that much
Knowing what I know now
Thought there have been sins
I will regret
Still I'm getting close
Getting closer
I don't have all the answers yet
But I'm getting closer
Getting closer
I'm a mark for every shyster
From Topanga to Berlin
And I should have learned
To kick them out
As soon as they crawled in
So to every bank in Switzerland
That stores my stolen youth
I'm alright because despite the laws
You cannot hide the truth
And although you will say
I am still too naive
But I have not lost faith
In the things I believe
And if I don't have a this all worked out
Still I'm getting closer
Getting closer
I still have far to go no doubt
But I'm still getting closer
Getting closer
