Scenes From An Italian Restaurant --Billy Joel[00:00:01]
A bottle of white a bottle of red[00:00:04]
Perhaps a bottle of rose instead[00:00:18]
We'll get a table near the street[00:00:23]
In our old familiar place[00:00:30]
You and I face to face oooh[00:00:33]
A bottle of red a bottle of white[00:00:39]
It all depends on your appetite[00:00:46]
I'll meet you any time you want[00:00:52]
In our Italian Restaurant [00:00:57]
Things are okay with me these days[00:01:01]
Got a good job got a good office[00:01:46]
Got a new wife got a new life[00:01:49]
And the family is fine[00:01:51]
Oh we lost touch long ago[00:01:52]
You lost weight I did not know[00:01:55]
You could ever look so nice after so much time [00:01:58]
Do you remember those days hanging out at the village green [00:02:02]
Engineer boots leather jackets and tight blue jeans[00:02:06]
Oh you'd drop a dime in the box play a song[00:02:11]
About New Orleans[00:02:16]
Cold beer hot lights[00:02:16]
My sweet romantic teenage nights[00:02:21]
Brenda and Eddie were the popular steadies[00:02:23]
And the king and the queen at the prom[00:03:13]
Riding around with the car top down[00:03:16]
And the radio on[00:03:18]
Nobody looked any finer or was more of a hit at the ParkwayDiner[00:03:20]
We never knew we could want more than that out of life[00:03:25]
Surely Brenda and Eddie would always know how to survive[00:03:30]
Brenda and Eddie were still going steady in the summer of '75[00:03:34]
When they decided the marriage would be at the end of July[00:03:47]
Everyone said they were crazy[00:03:52]
Brenda you know you're much too lazy[00:03:54]
And Eddie could never afford to live that kind of life[00:03:58]
But there we were waving Brenda and Eddie goodbye [00:04:01]
They got an apartment with deep pile carpet[00:04:05]
And a couple of paintings from Sears[00:04:12]
A big waterbed that they bought with the bread[00:04:14]
They had saved for a couple of years[00:04:17]
But they started to fight when the money got tight[00:04:19]
And they just didn't count on the tears[00:04:22]
Well they lived for a while in a very nice style[00:04:24]
But it's always the same in the end[00:04:57]
They got a divorce as a matter of course[00:04:59]
And they parted the closest of friends[00:05:01]
Then the king and the queen went back to the green[00:05:03]
But you can never go back there again [00:05:06]
Brenda and Eddie had had it already[00:05:08]
By the summer of '75[00:05:15]
From the high to the low to the end of the show[00:05:17]
For the rest of their lives[00:05:20]
They couldn't go back to the greasers[00:05:22]
The best they could do was pick up the pieces[00:05:24]
But we always knew they would both find a way to get by[00:05:27]
Oh that's all I heard about Brenda and Eddie[00:05:31]
Can't tell you more cause I told you already[00:05:34]
And here we are waving Brenda and Eddie goodbye [00:05:37]
A bottle of red and bottle of white[00:05:39]
Whatever kind of mood you're in tonight[00:06:31]
I'll meet you anytime you want[00:06:37]
In our Italian Restaurant[00:06:43]
