《Summer， Highland Falls(Live at the Bayou， Washington， D.C. - July 1980)》歌词

[00:00:03] Summer Highland Falls**(Live) - Billy Joel

[00:00:22] They say that these are not the best of times

[00:00:25] But they're the only times I've ever known

[00:00:32] And I believe there is a time for meditation in cathedrals of our own

[00:00:42] Now I have seen that sad surrender in my lover's eyes

[00:00:47] And I can only stand apart and sympathize

[00:00:52] For we are always what our situations hand us

[00:00:56] It's either sadness or euphoria

[00:01:13] So we argue and we compromise

[00:01:16] And realize that nothing's ever changed

[00:01:23] For all our mutual experience our seperate conclusions are the same

[00:01:33] Now we are forced to recognize our inhumanity

[00:01:39] Our reason co-exists with our insanity

[00:01:44] And though we choose between reality and madness

[00:01:48] It's either sadness or euphoria

[00:02:15] How thoughtlessly we dissipate our energies

[00:02:20] Perhaps we don't fulfill each other's fantasies

[00:02:25] And as we stand upon the ledges of our lives

[00:02:29] With our respective similarities

[00:02:35] It's either sadness or euphoria
