What's your favorite lyric from a song?

To express lonliness -

"There is no pain, you are receding.
A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
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."

Wow, it sounds even more bleak reading it

To Express Joy -

"Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl i loved
And drowned her deep inside of me

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven"

Can't believe that girl married me to this day

Just plain wonder at the world -

"And its something quite peculiar,
Something thats shimmering and white.
Leads you here despite your destination,
Under the milky way tonight
(chorus)
Under the milky way tonight"

Makes me think of the painting "Starry Night" by Van Gogh, and standing on that hill at night in Provence

There must have been an angel by my side, he led me to you.. Sade

"You tell that you've heard every sound there is..."

And Your Bird Can Sing, Beatles 1966

"I met a girl who sang the blues
And I asked her for some happy news,
But she just smiled and turned away.
I went down to the sacred store
Where I�d heard the music years before,
But the man there said the music wouldn�t play.

And in the streets: the children screamed,
The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed.
But not a word was spoken;
The church bells all were broken.
And the three men I admire most:
The father, son, and the holy ghost,
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died."

Don McClean - American Pie

"Hike up your skirt a little more
and show your world to me."

Dave Matthews Band
