|
In modern society, some of our most profound statements come in the form of Song Lyrics. To ignore these would be to omit some of the best thoughts we found putting our quote pages together.
Go ahead, hum along, you might recognize some of these songs
|
|
"And in the end, the love you take, is equal to the love you make" - Paul McCartney
|
Once inside a woman's heart, a man must keep his head. Heaven opens up the door, where angels fear to tread.
Some men go crazy, some men go slow, some men go just where they want. Some men never go.
Oh, blame it on midnight, oh, Shame on the moon - Bob Seger
|
Think it was September, the year I went away, for there were many things I didn't know.
And I still see him standing, trying to be a man, I said someday, you'll understand
I'm here to tell you now, each and every Mother's Son, you better learn it fast, you better learn it young
Because Someday Never Comes - John Fogerty
|
Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose. Nothin' ain't worth nothin' but it's free. - Kris Kristofferson,
|
I watched you suffer a dull aching pain. Now you decided to show me the same
No sweeping exits or offstage lines, could make me feel bitter or treat you unkind
Wild horses couldn't drag me away. Wild, wild horses, couldn't drag me away . - Jagger / Richards
|
May your hands always be busy, may your feet always be swift,
May you have a strong foundation when the winds of changes shift.
May your heart always be joyful, may your song always be sung,
May you stay forever young," - Bob Dylan
|
Well, she's walking through the clouds, With a circus mind that's running wild,
Butterflies and Zebras, Moonbeams and fairy tales.That's all she ever thinks about Riding with the wind. - Jimi Hendrix
|
And the words of the prophets are written on the subway walls, And tenement halls,
And whispered in the sounds of silence. - Paul Simon,
|
Oh, what'll you do now, my blue-eyed son? Oh, what'll you do now, my darling young one?
I'm a-goin' back out 'fore the rain starts a-fallin', I'll walk to the depths of the deepest black forest,
Where the people are many and their hands are all empty, Where the pellets of poison are flooding their waters,
Where the home in the valley meets the damp dirty prison, Where the executioner's face is always well hidden,
Where hunger is ugly, where souls are forgotten, Where black is the color, where none is the number,
And I'll tell it and think it and speak it and breathe it, And reflect it from the mountain so all souls can see it,
Then I'll stand on the ocean until I start sinkin', But I'll know my song well before I start singin',
And it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard, it's a hard,It's a hard rain's a-gonna fall. - Bob Dylan
|
Hear that lonesome whippoorwill? He sounds too blue to fly
The midnight train is whining low I'm so lonesome I could cry. - Hank Williams
|
I'm not scared of dyin' and I don't really care. If it's peace you find in dyin', well then, let the time be near.
And when I die, and when I'm gone, there'll be one child born in a world to carry on.- Laura Nyro,
|
Everbody wants to go to Heaven, but nobody wants to die. - Albert King
|
In the clearing stands the boxer, and a fighter by his trade. And he carries a reminder of every glove that laid him down, or cut him till he cried out in his anger and his shame "I am leaving! I am leaving" but the fighter still remains. - Paul Simon,
|
It's the heart afraid of dying, that never learns to dance; It's the dream afraid of waking, that never takes the chance;
It's the one who won't be taken, who cannot seem to give; And the soul afraid of dying, that never learns to live.- Amanda McBroom
|
Nights in white satin never reaching the end letters I've written never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before Just what the truth is I can't say any more
Cause I love you . Yes I love you, Oh how I love you - Justin Hayward
|
And you run and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking . And racing around to come up behind you again
The sun is the same in the relative way, but you're older and shorter of breath and one day closer to death - Roger Waters
|
I look at the world and I notice it's turning While my guitar gently weeps
With every mistake we must surely be learning Still my guitar gently weeps - George Harrison
|
But in the grey of the morning my mind becomes confused
Between the dead and the sleeping and the road that I must choose. - Justin Hayward
|
How I wish, how I wish you were here. We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl, Year after year,
Running over the same old ground. What have we found? The same old fears. Wish you were here. -Waters/Gilmour
|
For what is a man what has he got If not himself then he has not
To say the things he truly feels and not the words of one who kneels
The record shows I took the blows and did it my way - Paul Anka
|
Baby, baby, baby, let's investigate the other side of life tonight
The lovers and the fighters And the risks they take are on the other side of life tonight
Let's lose our way, go completely astray, and find ourselves again.
You know the only way to get there is to take that step to the other side of life tonight - Justin Hayward
|
When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse Out of the corner of my eye.I turned to look but it was gone.
I cannot put my finger on it now. The child is grown, The dream is gone. I have become comfortably numb. - Gilmour/Waters
|
But of all these friends and lovers There is no one compares with you.
And these memories lose their meaning When I think of love as something new.
Though I know I'll never lose affection For people and things that went before I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I love you more. - John Lennon
|
People talking without speaking, People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share, and no one dare disturb the Sound of Silence.- Paul Simon
|
A brown-eyed girl in hand-me-downs whose name I never could pronounce, said, "Pity, please, the ones who serve; they only get what they deserve. The rich relationed hometown queen marries into what she needs. A guarantee of company and haven for the elderly." Remember those who win the game lose the love they sought to gain. In debentures of quality and dubious integrity.
Their small-town eyes will gape at you in dull surprise when payment due exceeds accounts received at seventeen. - Janis Ian
