Lyrics:
Billy Joel
Turn The Lights Back On"
Please open the door
Nothing is different, we've been here before
Pacing these halls
Trying to talk over the silence
And pride sticks out its tongue
Laughs at the portrait that we've become
Stuck in a frame, unable to change
I was wrong
I'm late, but I'm here right now
Though I used to be romantic
I forgot somehow
Time can make you blind
But I see you now
As we're laying in the darkness
Did I wait too long
To turn the lights back on?
Here, stuck on a hill
Outsiders inside the home that we built
The cold settles in
It's been a long winter of indifference
And maybe you love me, maybe you don't
Maybe you'll learn to, maybe you won't
You've had enough, but I won't give up
On you
I'm late, but I'm here right now
And I'm tryin' to find the magic
That we lost somehow
Maybe I was blind
But I see you now
As we're laying in the darkness
Did I wait too long
To turn the lights back on?
I'm late, but I'm here right now
Is there still time for forgiveness?
Won't you tell me how?
I can't read your mind
But I see you now
As we're layin' in the darkness
Did I wait too long
To turn the lights back on?
I'm here right now
Yes, I'm here right now
Looking for forgiveness
I can see as we're laying in the darkness
Yeah, as we're laying in the darkness
Did I wait too long
To turn the lights back on?

A national treasure, this man is. His music has been the soundtrack to many of our lives.
Astounded how you can write hits in the 70s and create another masterpiece 3 decades later! It’s brilliant ❤
The 70s was 50 years ago
He didn't write it though
The 70s were a half century ago.
My childhood friend is back,the joy,the inspiration and my dream's light is back on.
Thank you,billy...
Billy sends it out of the ball park with this one... what an amazing song... from an amazing artist.. can't listen to it enough
This Song is Amazing and Beautifully Sung by Billy Joel!
Over hyped, over produced . Just because a legendary artist comes out with a song everyone is going to praise it. Let’s be honest, the lyrics are average to good but the song sucks. I guarantee this will be forgotten in a few months.
@@jeffhernandez5288 This Song by Billy Joel is Not Too Bad!
@jeffhernandez5288 i thought it was good but yeah unless its on the radio they won't remember it.
@@jeffhernandez5288 you suck shut up and get outta here!
This song is a masterpiece of human feelings and hope even in darkness. Thank you, Billy!
You have a way of putting the hardest things into a meaningful song. You always did. Now you’ve done it again. This song is a great gift.
.. He and this song has but a fire back under my ass ITS NEVER TO LATE to bring back the Light in your life
Filled with emotion. To all the nay sayers.. I don't wish it upon you, but I guess you have had to have lived these lyrics... When you know ,you know. Great Song !
I agree. The song tells a heartbreaking past
I think some of us go thru this at some point in life. Weather it's with a spouse or a significant other. It's a beautiful song, thanks Billy Joel. God bless!
Now - we need an album.... thank you Billy!!!!
OMG I heard this on the radio twice and thought it was one of his eighties songs...was shocked to find out it's brand new....has such an awesome 1980s sound...absolutely beautiful song!
Now This Song From Billy Joel Is One of My Favorites As a Fan Since I Was 14 Years Old To My 30’s Today!
piano man is back
with a song only
he could sing..
amazing
Great song Billy Joel. Still love your voice. You are the greatest. I live in Hicksville New York. When I was 16 years old I hung out at the Woodbury bowling alley. Which is gone now. You are still amazing. Don't stop singing or writing songs. Love ya❤
Billy Joel's voice has touched my soul as a young girl in a group of friends playing his music on a jute box and this song has also touched my soul as an old woman never feel like you don't like your voice it moves people and touches there lives. Thank you panio man for all of your music and the memories ❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
What a voice and a moving song. Loved it on first hearing. Great artist. Love you, Billy. ❤❤😊
Many of us agree! He's terrific and so great to hear his new song!
Aghhh the Billy I have loved for my lifetime is back!! Soooo sooo beautiful - thank you Billy from returning to us
Welcome. Back billy it's great to have you back love your music great song
Billy knocked it out of the park with this
song. thank you Billy. I have been a fan forever. 😊
This is a great song. I love it. I can watch it over and over. You’re an amazing singer and musician, one of THE BEST! Keep entertaining because we love you, Billy Joel!!
In 1972, I saw Billy Joel performing in a small piano bar in Staten Island, NY. No marquis then, just a cardboard sign announcing his name in black magic marker. He sounds just as good on this new song as he did then!
What a great recollection. Did you feel at the time he was destined to be a star?
@@kerplunkety Actually, no. He was a good piano player and singer, but he played mostly Elton John songs during the evening. It was a year before the Piano Man album came out.
@@stoopotts6908 amazing. An incredibly talented composer/songwriter as well
@@kerplunkety No doubt about it!
@@stoopotts6908Are you sure it was actually Billy Joel? He was living in California at that time. Plus, he doesn’t like being compared to Elton, so why would he play his songs?
He’s always had the magic! Thanks for another great song sir ,we needed this! ❤
Billy Joel my all time favorite❤ a Genius, a Poet, a great Musician. I am a Big fan from Milano 🇮🇹
This is a treasure that we found at bottom of the sea!
Ive been listening to Billy since I was in high school. Now Im on Medicare. It’s like he never went away. He can tell a story in a 3 minute song like no one else. And his voice is still amazing. Saw him in concert a few years ago at Wrigley field and also saw him play with Elton John. Amazing!
Stunning Song!! the melody is amazing. Thank you Billy for coming back and sharing your gift with the world!!!
I'm am there with you…. I relate to every word you say.…makes me cry….i play it over and over…..💕💕💕
Who's here about of Mr. Richard 😇
Me 😂🤝
Yesss!
I was in tears 😢
I struggled to find this song😢 while it was played as a background on Mr Richard 🤦😭. I searched it until I Shazam it
Definitely ❤
wow great i dont have words , but tears in my eyes a lot . thanks for these song
Absolute Gold.
Glad Billy Joel Made a New Song!
@@vinceniederman I wish he never paused creating new material. I could listen to "Scenes From An Italian Restaurant" for hours on end!!
@@mortb9 Same and I’ve been a Fan Since 2007!
@@vinceniederman I've been a fan since "The Stranger"!!! I'm old!!! lol Give "Scenes From An Italian Restaurant" a listen. It's a little on the long side, but well worth the listen!!
@@mortb9Nice and Billy Sounds Like His Younger Self in This Song in My Mind and I’ve Heard “Scenes From An Italian Restaurant” A lot of Times on UA-cam!
Wow was never a fan even though I very dear friend of mine played bass guitar for you for years this song has turned me into a Billy Joel believer. Thank you for this song.
Classic Billy Joel ,awesome song!!!
True, classic Billy Joel. Great all around
Amazing! Thank you once again for the extra strength 🥹
Another wonderful song full of emotions…
This song is so beautiful, and speaks volumes. Those of us who lived it will understand. Thank you Billy, iv always been a fan but this went above and beyond with my emotions ❤
Thanks for all the good music and memories of your concerts
The First Time I Heard This Song From My Favorite Singer Billy Joel It Was Amazing To Hear As a Fan Since I Was 14 Years Old To My 30’s Today!
Absolutely incredible!
trying to talk over the silence.
That silence is loud.
Such a strong song
And still the strongest part is when he says
I won't give up on me you
Great song, yes I'm here right now.❤
This is a beautiful heart touching song that is a lovely addition to Billy Joel's greats.❤
I'm just loving this song more and more, everyday ❤
First time hearing and it choked me up.
Definitely here right now. Late yes, but I see you now. Because of you my lights are turned on. I'm here right now for you and yes❤
I found this song a couple of days ago, and I listened for the full hour I could on Sirius radio on repeat, and I am OBSESSED ❤❤❤ I listen at least 5 times a day. A beautiful heart-felt song. So much emotion. I can relate to it so much for me needing forgiveness and remembering regret
“Turn The Lights Back On” (2024) is Billy Joel’s first solo song with lyrics in 17 years❗️
Co-authored by Joel with Freddy Wexler, Arthur Bacon and Wayne Hector, this piano ballad serves as A SELF-REFLECTION AND AN APOLOGY to his fans for his long songwriting absence.
Asked why it had taken him almost two decades to bring out new material, the “Piano Man” replied : “It was fun. Music is fun. Rock n’ roll was fun. It was all about having fun - and I kind of lost that and I TURNED THE LIHGTS OFF BECAUSE IT WASN’T FUN ANYMORE. I studiously avoided it because songwriting had become painful. I HAVE THIS HIGH BAR. I said to myself, ‘If I don’t reach that bar, I beat myself up and I punch myself and I hate myself.’ So, I stopped doing it because I got tired of feeling like that.”
Wearing sunglasses, the American musician performed this piece for the first time at the 2024 Grammy Awards. He also closed out the ceremony with “You May Be Right” (1980).
WELCOME BACK, MR. JOEL❕ 💙🎹💜
The song and voice are magical!
Why isn't this more popular? Man these lyrics are amazing!
cos it's so new. I agree, it's wonderful.
I didn't realize how new it was so new. Billy sounds the same which is unbelievable.❤
Love this song I hope you make this a cd love this great to see back very awesome
Just truly brilliant .Resonates 100 percent with me .Real honest ,just fab xxx you are unique .❤❤❤❤
Beautiful song. ..
Great song thank you
Amazing. Billy Joel has it.
Just listened 🎶 and wow moved me to tears 😢
Incredible
世界中のリスナーが（ビリーのねらい通り）普通な方の解釈をされていますが、実は主語のＩはビリーではないのでしょう。 主語のＩ、私（僕）はmusic、昔はロマンティックだった音楽です。沈黙し、行き詰まり、変わらず時代遅れで、闇の中にいるのです。Ｉが音楽で、weは音楽とyouすなわちBillyです。このように解釈すべきところを本人はずっと表明しないでしょう。どんな哲学者でも文学者でもなかなか読み取れないと言われるビリーの歌詞の神髄です。さて、ふたたび音楽に光が当たるのだろうか、、、
He became the old man in Piano Man, who said, "It's sad and its sweet and I knew it complete, when I wore a younger man's clothes..." 💔❤️💔❤️💔❤️
Brilliant
Love it.
He’s fucking back!
Love this song
amen
BRAVO❤
I love this new song
Great from a Great
I'm late.. knowing this song too late..thanks to Mr. Richard.
Linda letra
Is this how the song starts officially? I have the 45 single and it's the "extended vinyl version" and has an intro before singing.
Either way, phenomenal song.
I hope you read this Billy .. this is a very sad song. and without JESUS you will remain in darkness.Jesus is that door that you sing about. He Loves you. If you are searching reach out to Him .He's arms are wide open waiting for you and all those who may read this ......ps we have met Twice.......I truly really like your music 🎵🎶
Jesus is That Light!!
Not all of us believe in fairytales
There is beauty in darkness.
Its about a couple that have lost their way in their relationship and he is trying to find where they went wrong!! It has nothing to do with your imaginary friend
Please no need to bring religion into such a beautiful song..
That is blasfimy.
Wish I had written this.
It was mostly written by someone else. Joel added some lyrics and changed the music a bit. It's a good interpretation
This was an unfinished Joel song - he wrote the music and most of the lyrics. Top producer Freddy Wexler and Joel have been working on unfinished Joel songs from the 70s to 90s for the last year and a half .
Apple tress ??? Make apples!!! Well done sir!!!!
Im here because of Mr. Richard of AGT
❤❤❤
Capolavoro
I heard on I heart radio
Mk I love the song, But I'm taking points off the video itself because the channel icon and the suggested videos cut off the last bit of lyrics I was trying to read.
This song gives me live action Beauty and the Beast vibes.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Is steel time forgiveness
Збс!
Not sure. The lyric seems better than the melody
Yes, I think you waited too long
What romhack is this?
An amazing song. But when I listen to it a feel is coming into my mind this might be a rip off from the song 'the end of the road'
I was assaulted by a bag of cheese while this song was playing.
LOL
🤔🤤
6/8? 3/4?
Based on structure I would say 6/8.
A relatively slow 4/4 actually. Don't let the triplets at the beginning confuse you. It's easier to feel the pulse when the strings are playing during the chorus.
@@usmpiano Think you might be right, thanks
@@apebass2215 Yea, interesting.....yea the triplets do throw me off
Did Elton write this?
Really?
No, but it sure sounds exactly like his melody and chord progression--and the absurdly self-absorbed lyrics. @@ljerry8440
Sounds like something off Cold Spring Harbor. Sorry, it's just not as dazzling as all the hype says it is.
I love Cold Spring Harbor. ❤
This isn't your song to play.
😂😆😂😂😂😂
It was a collaboration and co-written. So, he absolutely has every right to play it and crush it as he does right here!
Meh. Kind of reminds me of his early work.. shows promise. But not amazing
Blah.
Meh.
Should have kept the lights off on this one.
Not doing it for me. Not catchy in the least.
Sorry it sucks
How? Do u even understand it?
@@maxpham5663 I know it's deep it has a message and did I wait to long to turn the lights back on ..blah blah, but it's not catchy.
@@warwagonTo each their own.
It's so beautiful.
