What's your favorite lyric from a song?


Just curious what stays with people...

From Ray Wylie Hubbard's The Messenger:
"Our fears are like dragons guarding our most precious treasures." (And he's quoting the French poet Relke)

From Guy Clark's The Cape:
"He's one of those that knows that life is just a leap of faith, so spread your arms, and hold your breath, and always trust your cape."

From Trout Fishing in America's (Ezra Idlet & Keith Grimwood)Eleven Easy Steps:
"No imagination's the only thing that can stop me."
Please don't confront me with my failures/
I have not forgotten them.

--Paul Westerberg
Savatage: 'I've wasted my time 'till time wasted me'.

David Lee Roth: 'I don't know where I'm goin' but I can't wait to get there'
'Now take the traveller and the tourist
the essential difference is
the traveller don't knows where he is goin'
and the tourist don't know where he is
Small world 'till they lose your luggage'

And finally, from Queensryche:
'I don't believe in love
I never have, I never will
I don't believe in love
It's neve worth the pain that you feel'.

But I'm a real happy guy :)
Sting...when you find your servent is your master, you'll be wrapped around my finger.
What you own is your own kingdom
What you do is your own glory
What you love is your own power
What you live is your own story
In your head is the answer
Let it guide you along
Let your heart be the anchor
And the beat of your own song

You don't get something for nothing
You can't have freedom for free
You won't get wise
With the sleep still in your eyes
No matter what your dreams might be

Enjoy,
