What's your favorite lyric from a song?

dutchtexan,
That is a perfect example of why words without music often seem less significant. When I read these words, I thought "So what", they didn't have much special meaning to me. When I realized they were from Mercy Street, I almost had to laugh, because I love that song; but the words without the music and expressive singing seem very ordinary.

Poor Otis dead and gone
Left me here to sing his song
Pretty little girl with the red dress on
Poor Otis dead and gone

The Doors/Soft Parade

Every day is the same thing out the door
Feel further away than ever before
Some things in life, it gets too late to learn
Well, I’m lost somewhere
I must have made a few bad turns

Time Out Of Mind
Bob Dylan

I don't believe in an interventionist God
But I know, darling, that you do

But if I did, I would kneel down and ask Him
Not to intervene when it came to you
Oh, not to touch a hair on your head
Leave you as you are

If he felt he had to direct you
Then direct you into my arms

Into My Arms
Nick Cave

A truly beautiful song.

YO DUDE ROCK OUT!!!!
