What's your favorite lyric from a song?


Just curious what stays with people...
arthursmuck
`Cause you were bred for humanity and sold to society
One day you'll wake up in the Present Day
A million generations removed from expectations
Of being who you really want to be.

Skating away on the thin ice of the New Day.
"Starry starry night, paint your palatte blue and grey;
Look out on a summer's day, with eyes that know the darkness of my soul............but I could have told you, Vincent, This world was never meant for one as beautiful as you."
Don McLean
American Pie

"If they were right, I'd agree, but it's them they know - not me"

Cat Stevens from "Father and Son"
baby,don't you give me
your words of sweet whiskey
something, is crawling
over me quickly
SEE, I'VE LIED TOO
LAUGHED AT AND CRIED TO
but I'm no longer
twisted and tied to
The slacker-Red light NYC ska, baby
From Paul Weller's wildwood album

"like mercury gliding,
a silver teardrop that falls,
and I can't catch her,
through my fingers she's gone"

... from "Foot of the Mountain".

"We used to meet each others eyes,
and that's all we'd have to say,
now we don't talk that much at all,
the further our eyes seem to stray"

...... from "all the pictures on the wall"
