What's your favorite lyric from a song?

" I love you in a place where there is no space or time"

Leon Russell from "A Song for You"

Golden slumbers fill your eyes
Smiles awake you when you rise

You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometime, you just might find, you get what you need.

Rolling Stones

The lyric for Golden Slumber is from a 17th cent. poem by Thomas Dekker
McCartney saw a song in his sister's songbook and made up his own version

Golden slumbers kiss your eyes,
Smiles awake you when you rise;
Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby,
Rock them, rock them, lullaby.
Care is heavy, therefore sleep you,
You are care, and care must keep you ;
Sleep, pretty wantons, do not cry,
And I will sing a lullaby,
Rock them, rock them, lullaby.

"'My daddy was no jockey, but he taught me how to ride" Kansas City David Bromberg version
