Favorite Lines from Favorite Songs

[KingAHolic]

And though the odds say improbable
What do they know?
For in romance
All true love needs is a chance
And maybe with a chance you will find
You too like I
Overjoyed, over loved, over you

Overjoyed - Stevie Wonder

 

[blunthead]

As around the sun the earth knows she's revolving
And the rosebuds know to bloom in early May
Just as hate knows love's the cure
You can rest your mind assure
That I'll be loving you always
As now can't reveal the mystery of tomorrow
But in passing will grow older every day
Just as all is born is new
Do know what I say is true
That I'll be loving you always

Until the rainbow burns the stars out in the sky (always)
Until the ocean covers every mountain high (always)
Until the dolphin flies and parrots live at sea (always)
Until we dream of life and life becomes a dream.

"As" - Stevie Wonder

 

[Grandpa]

A girl comes towards you
You once used to know
You reach out your hand.....
.....but you're all alone
In these time passages
I know you're in there.. you're just out of sight!
Oh, time passages
Buy me a ticket on the last train home tonight

 

[KingAHolic]

People say I'm crazy,
Doing what I'm doing
Well, they give me all kinds of warnings
to save me from ruin
When I say that I'm okay, well, they look at me kinda strange
"Surely, you're not happy now, you no longer play the game"

Watching the Wheels ~ John Lennon

 

[Blake]

Billy Idol-Don't need a gun:

Elvis a fight the dying light
Johnnie Ray he's always crying
Gene Vincent he cried who slapped John, John, John.
Yes and me, I'm movin', movin', movin', movin' on.
Yeah to be someone

 

[KingAHolic]

two times and it has rendered me
punch drunk and without bail
think I'd be safer all alone
flys in the vasoline we are
sometimes it blows my mind
keep getting stuck here all the time
Vasoline - Stone Temple Pilots

 

[blunthead]

Your day breaks, your mind aches
You find that all the words of kindness linger on
When she no longer needs you

She wakes up, she makes up
She takes her time and doesn't feel she has to hurry
She no longer needs you

And in her eyes you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears
Cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years

"For No One" - Beatles

 

[Pucker]

All the King's horses and all the king's men
And all the king's idiot sons
Ain't never in all of their glorious battles
Solved anything with a gun.

That's Steve Krikorkian, better known to some as Tonio K., singing about Trouble.

"It don't make much sense that common sense don't make no sense no more." John Prine

 

[KingAHolic]

I know a town where people are running
Away from life - it seems always, funny
They think they are smart
Don't doubt what they say
Scared of a change
Existing only
(Days of the New - The Down Town)

 

[blunthead]

God's aloft, the winds are raging,
God's aloft, the winds are cold.

-Procol Harum

 

[KingAHolic]

I know your life is empty
And you hate to face this world alone
So you're searching for an angel
Someone who can make you whole
I can not save you
I can't even save myself

(Save Yourself - Stabbing Westward)

 

[blunthead]

Wash yourself and see your sorrow,
Make every pitcher clean,
Take a mop to swab the floor,
And destroy the evil dream

Counting houses full of lead,
The evil eye on high,
Streets are washed with blood and pus,
The new moon's in the sky

- Procol Harum

 

[paper_is_sweet]

Haven't had a dream in a long time
see, the life I've had
can make a good man bad

So for once in my life
let me get what I want
Lord knows it would be the first time
Lord knows it would be the first time

-The Smiths

 

[HollyGolightly]

And you say, be still, my love;
Open up your heart, let the light shine.
Don't you understand?
I already have a plan -
I'm waiting for my real life to begin

On a clear day I can see, see for a long way

-Colin Hay

Current song on repeat: "I'll be okay" by Nothing More

We live in the rain, a sea of change.
You can't keep anything you take
A lovely face of lives we chase
Is but dust for wind to take

When all is gone, the only loss
is to not have loved at every cost.
When you can say, and I can say
We loved with every step we take, I'll be okay

 

[stephannahful]

but everyone you know, is tryin' to smooth it over
find a way to make the hurt go away
but everyone you know, is tryin' to smooth it over
like you're tryin' to scream underwater

but i won't let you make the great escape
i'm never gonna watch you checkin' out of this place
i'm not gonna lose you, cause the passion and the pain
are gonna keep you alive someday
gonna keep you alive someday

P!NK the great escape

 

[stephannahful]

"If I screwed you once would that keep you in your place?"

Lennon Murphy is the artist, I don't recall the track, but she's excellent for one liners.

"I'm not trying to be a rebel, just want my God given right. If I'm gonna **** up my own life I'm gonna do it right."
From the song Couldn't Breathe

Current song on repeat: "I'll be okay" by Nothing More

We live in the rain, a sea of change.
You can't keep anything you take
A lovely face of lives we chase
Is but dust for wind to take

When all is gone, the only loss
is to not have loved at every cost.
When you can say, and I can say
We loved with every step we take, I'll be okay

I'm going to download this on my iTunes--beautiful song.
