A Matter Of Trust
Billy Joel 1986

two columns

OPENER

Circle left
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began with a passionate start
Now, the men star right one time
Left allemande and you weave the ring
I've lived long enough to have learned
The closer you get to the fire the more you get burned
But that won't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust


FIGURE

Heads (Sides) promenade halfway around
Walk in and square thru go four hands around that ol' ring
Right & left thru you know
Pass thru and trade by
Touch 1/4, scoot back and then
Swing your corner girl and all promenade that ol' ring
But that won't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust


MIDDLE BREAK

Circle left
You can't go the distance with too much resistance
The men star right one time
Left allemande and weave that ol' ring
It's hard when you're always afraid
You just recover when another belief is betrayed
So, break my heart if you must
Because it's always been a matter of trust


CLOSER

I know you're an emotional girl
It took a lot for you to not lose your faith in this world

The men star right one time
Left allemande and weave that ol' ring
Some love is just a lie of the heart
The cold remains of what began as a passionate start
But that can't happen to us
Because it's always been a matter of trust


TAG

It's a matter of trust
Yes, it's always been a matter of trust
