Vienna

Lyrics by：Billy Joel

Composed by：Billy Joel

Slow down you crazy child

You're so ambitious for a juvenile

But then if you're so smart tell me

Why are you still so afraid hmm

Where's the fire what's the hurry about

You'd better cool it off before you burn it out

You've got so much to do

And only so many hours in a day-ay

But you know that when the truth is told

That you can get what you want or you could just get old

You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through ooh

When will you realize Vienna waits for you

Slow down you're doing fine

You can't be everything you want to be before your time

Although it's so romantic on the borderline tonight

Tonight

Too bad but it's the life you lead

You're so ahead of yourself that you forgot what you need

Though you can see when you're wrong

You know you can't always see when you're right

You're right

You've got your passion you've got your pride

But don't you know that only fools are satisfied

Dream on but don't imagine they'll all come true ooh

When will you realize Vienna waits for you

Slow down you crazy child

And take the phone off the hook and disappear for awhile

It's all right you can afford to lose a day or two ooh

When will you realize Vienna waits for you

And you know that when the truth is told

That you can get what you want or you could just get old

You're gonna kick off before you even get halfway through ooh

Why don't you realize Vienna waits for you

When will you realize Vienna waits for you
