60's era song with most meaning?

I love lyrics and songs with depth and meaning.
I was curious if anyone has any songs from the 60s that hold any meaning to them? Or perhaps any songs with powerful lyrics or deeper meaning?
Or even a song with personal meaning?c:
I am interested in knowing.

I've always loved Brief Candles by the Zombies as it tells of a couple that has broken up and how they will both be better off moving on without each other.

There she sits her hands are held
Tight around her glass
She only needs to be alone
She knows this mood will pass
To realize that she was strong
And he too weak to stay
And to realize that she is better off this way

Brief candles in her mind
Bright and tiny gems of memory
Brief candles burn so fine
Leaves a light inside where she can see
What makes it all worthwhile
Her sadness makes her smile...

His alone girl fades away
Left out on a limb
Finds he needs her more because
She's no more need for him
He understood so very well
The things she had to say
Soon he'll understand that he is better off this way

Brief candles in his mind
Bright and tiny gems of memory
Brief candles burn so fine
Leaves a light inside where he can see
What makes it all worthwhile
His sadness makes him smile...

In the corner see his face
The man just sips his drink
Not one feeling does he show
Far too numb to think
He does not say a single word
No word of love to say
Maybe he will soon believe he's better off this way...

Brief candles in his mind
Bright and tiny gems of memory
Brief candles burn so fine
Leaves a light inside where he can see
What makes it all worthwhile
His sadness makes him smile...

Here are a few:













Finally, this last one is about the regret a fellow feels about having turned down a girl's marriage proposal so many years ago:

I think that Masters of War by Bob Dylan is pretty intense.

Dylan's anger overflowed on Masters of War, with lines such as
But there’s one thing I know
Though I’m younger than you
Even Jesus would never
Forgive what you do

And the final verse:
And I hope that you die
And your death’ll come soon
I will follow your casket
In the pale afternoon
And I’ll watch while you’re lowered
Down to your deathbed
And I’ll stand o’er your grave
’Til I’m sure that you’re dead


Dylan's "Visions of Johanna" is a favorite of mine. Some of my favorite lines:

Ain’t it just like the night to play tricks when you’re tryin' to be so quiet?
We sit here stranded, though we’re all doin’ our best to deny it

Louise, she’s all right, she’s just near
She’s delicate and seems like the mirror
But she just makes it all too concise and too clear
That Johanna’s not here
The ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face
Where these visions of Johanna have now taken my place

Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously
He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously

Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while
But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues
You can tell by the way she smiles

Pete Seeger - The Bells Of Rhymney

"Surfin' Bird" - The Trashmen

Always loved this one by CSNY

Eve Of Destruction - Barry McGuire

Two tunes spring immediately to mind here."Like A Rolling Stone" certainly belongs up high at least on my list,but what about "All You Need Is Love",which magnificently encapsulates the spirit of the 60's "Love Generation".Another strong candidate-the Who's highly spirited under age 30 anthem "My Generation"................
