Here's a cheery one:

"I believe that lovers should be tied together,

Thrown into the ocean in the worst of weather

And left there to drown in their happiness."

here's a more cheery one:

Well I wish I could kill you and savour the sight

Get into my car, drive into the night

Then lie as I scream to the heavens above

that I was the last one you ever loved.

"Porcelain" ~ Better Than Ezra

Peaches - no, I'm not suggesting this one for the quote box. Just had to throw it in for Das' enjoyment. :grin:

Thanks for the quotes, everyone. Keep 'em coming! The only thing I ask is that if you are quoting a song, please include the title and artist. There is a way to add a link to the quotes. I'm trying to add links to the songs that have Songfacts. If you see a quote with a link, do me a favor and click on it to see if it works.

Thanks, my lovely Songfactors!

There's a full moon over Galway Bay tonight

Silver light on green and blue

Every place I travel to find

Some kind of sign that you've been through

Amsterdam us always good for grievin'

London never fails to leave me blue

Paris really ain't my kind of town

So I walked around with the Fort Worth blues

Guy Clark

"I run a little insurrection

that moves in the direction

that beauty is beauty

in spite of perfection" ~ Roger Clyne

"Cowboys ain't easy to love

and they're harder to hold

they'd rather give you a song

than diamonds or gold" ~ Waylon and Willie

There's a Songfact for this song by Steve Earle. Do you mind if I link it to him, Elvy?

Did you find what you were after?

The pain and the laughter brought you to your knees

But if the sun sets you free, sets you free

You'll be free indeed.

"She's Only Happy In the Sun" ~ Ben Harper

Here's a couple my grandma used to tell me, so I don't know where they originate:

"It's what you learn after you know it all that counts"

Harry Truman

"To save face keep the lower half shut"

Two pieces of advice I've never followed :laughing:

You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds,

But soon you'll cage me on your shelf -

I'll never learn to be just me first

By myself.

That's The Way I've Always Heard It Should Be ~ Carly Simon

Peachy...

Are you using Homer Simpson quotes? Like the "Everyone knows rock n roll attained perfection in 1974. It's a scientific fact."

Cause Homer is my hero!! :laughing:
