Favorite line from a song?

[Anonymous]

While you were sleeping
I was listening to the radio
And wondering what you're dreaming when
It came to mind that I didn't care

So I thought - hell if it's over
I had better end it quick
Or I could lose my nerve
Are you listening - can you hear me?

Matchbox 20. Cheezy but such a cold break up song!

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make. (Beatles, "The End," from Abbey Road)

Love that one, too!

Life is a thump-ripe melon, so sweet and such a mess.--Greg Brown

You know the way I went was not the way I'd planned. But I thought the world needed love and a steady hand.--Dar Williams

Great son. Now it's going to be in my head all day.

Yay! Great job! I am impressed.

It's a girl, my lord, in a flatbed
Ford slowin' down to take a look at me
Come on, baby, don't say maybe
I gotta know if your sweet love is
Gonna save me

To continue the theme:

"The weather is here, wish you were beautiful."

Both of these are Lyle Lovett. Memphis is fun to sing, and North Dakota makes me cry.

"I've Been to Memphis"

Sherry she had big ones
Sally had some too
Allison had little ones
What hate to go to school


"North Dakota"

Now the weather's getting colder
It's even cold down here
And the words that you have told me
Hang frozen in the air
And sometimes I look right through them
As if they were not there

She had dumps like a truck, truck, truck
Thighs like what? What? What?
Baby, move your butt, butt, butt
I think I'll sing it again
She had dumps like a truck, truck, truck
Thighs like what? What? What?
All night long... let me see that tho-o-ong!

Cracks me up every.single.time.

Every time I scratch my nails down someone else's back, I hope you feel it. - Alanis Morrissette

Such perfect lyrics for twentysomething jilted anger. And then you grow up and learn that the object of her poetic rage was frickin Joey from Full House. You're better off without that dork, Alanis!

i'll see you again
when the stars fall from the sky
and the moon has turned red
over one tree hill

Put on my blue suede shoes
And I boarded the plane
Touched down in the land of the Delta Blues
In the middle of the pouring rain
W.C. Handy -- won't you look down over me
Yeah I got a first class ticket
But I'm as blue as a boy can be...

Now Muriel plays piano
Every Friday at the Hollywood
And they brought me down to see her
And they asked me if I would --
Do a little number
And I sang with all my might
And she said --
"Tell me are you a Christian child?"
And I said "Ma'am I am tonight"

I've been afraid of changing cuz I built my life around you. My time's getting older even children get older and I am getting older too. (Landslide, Fleetwood Mac) -- think i got it right.

I also love that "Cats in the Cradle and the silver moon" song. The lines "Grow up to be just like you dad. .. etc." makes me cry. Totally my family (father and my brothers)
