Just curious what stays with people...

53 years later it’s still:

Yes, to dance beneath the diamond sky
With one hand waving free
Silhouetted by the sea
Circled by the circus sands
With all memory and fate
Driven deep beneath the waves
Let me forget about today until tomorrow
"Roland searched the continent for the man who did him in
He found him in Mombasa in a barroom drinking gin
Roland aimed his Thompson gun, he didn't say a word
But he blew Van Owen's body from there to Johannesburg."

-Warren Zevon

"I wanted the ocean to cover over me
I wanna sink slowly without getting wet
Maybe someday, I won't be so lonely
And I'll walk on water every chance I get"

Counting Crows "Time and Time Again"
"Hear me now and don't forget
I'm not the man my actions would suggest
A little boy, I'm tied to you
I fell apart
That's what I always do".....

Afghan Whigs "Debonair"


Dylan...

" Gotta hurry on back to my hotel room, where I got me a date with Botticelli's neice, she promised she'd be right there with me, when I paint my masterpiece." 

The Dead does an outstanding version of this on their Dozin at the Knick cd.
