I think I know what you've been asking me
I think you know what I've been trying to say
I promised I would never leave you
And you should always know
Wherever you may go
No matter where you are
I never will be far away
My highschool show choir sang this song for about five straight years, and I got so sick of it that I didn't understand any of the lyrics. I read them though a while back in a fit of nostalgia, and they really are quite beautiful. To complete the genereal sappiness of this posting I would have to bring in a failed relationship, but I think I will spare you. Billy Joel is a very gifted writer. Even things taken out of context are meaningful in his songs
I love that section of the first verse
