From what I understand it means that you can’t do everything you want before it’s your time to shine in the world. “Slow down, your doing fine you can’t be everything you want to be before your time.” This lyric has to do with the fact at there is a time for everyone to be great. If you always try to be better than everyone else you will never be yourself. Billy immortalized this by saying, “ Though you can see when you're wrong, you know You can't always see when you're right.” “Where’s the fire what’s the hurry about? You’d better cool it off before you burn it out…” This quote, in my eyes, means that you should relax and stop rushing life or else you’ll waste it.
When they don’t see what they do right the person usually beat down on themselves for what they did wrong. Perfectionists don’t always see what they do wrong. Billy is telling them that they are only human and we make mistakes, so don’t stress about one. “Vienna”, by Billy Joel, is a song written about one of these people. Vienna waits for youĪs some people live their lives they develop a habit of being a perfectionist. You're gonna kick off before you even get half through That you can get what you want or you can just get old When will you realize.Vienna waits for you? It's all right, you can afford to lose a day or two You've got your passion, you've got your prideīut don't you know that only fools are satisfied?ĭream on, but don't imagine they'll all come trueĪnd take the phone off the hook and disappear for awhile Though you can see when you're wrong, you know You're so ahead of yourself that you forgot what you need
When will you realize, Vienna waits for you?Īlthough it's so romantic on the borderline tonight That you can get what you want or you get old
You'd better cool it off before you burn it outīut you know that when the truth is told. Where's the fire, what's the hurry about?
