Favourite Lines in Songs

[Flower]

I did a quick search and couldn't find a thread on this, if there is one, it is long buried.

What are some of your favourite lines in songs?

I love ELO's "Evil Woman" .. especially the line "There's a hole in my head where the rain comes in"

I'll post more as I think of them ...

Rebel Rebel - David Bowie

"Rebel rebel, you've torn your dress
Rebel rebel, your face is a mess
Rebel rebel, how could they know?
Hot tramp, I love you so!"

 

[Mr. Shadow]

Before I sink
Into the big sleep
I want to hear
I want to hear
The scream of the butterfly

THE DOORS lyrics - When The Music's Over

 

[Kino]

"I lived so long believin all love is blind"
- Forever by KISS

 

[Foxhound]

Down Home Girl (Leiber/Butler) - Rolling Stones

Lord I swear the perfume you wear
Was made out of turnip greens
And everytime I kiss you girl
It tastes like pork and beans
Even though you're wearin' them
Citified high heels
I can tell by your giant step
You been walkin' through the cotton fields
Oh, you're so down home girl

Everytime you monkey child
You take my breath away
And everytime you move like that
I gotta get down and pray
Don't you know that dress of yours
Was made out of fiberglass
And everytime you move like that
I gotta go to Sunday mass
Oh, you're so down home girl

I'm gonna take you to the muddy river
And push you in
Just to watch the water roll on
Down your velvet skin
I'm gonna take you back to New Orleans
Down in Dixieland
I'm gonna watch you do the second line
With an umbrella in your hand
Oh, you're so down home girl

"Hold the Line" ~ Toto

Its not in the way that you hold me, its not in the way you say you care
Its not in the way youve been treating my friends
Its not in the way that you stayed till the end
Its not in the way you look or the things that you say that youll do

Chorus:
Hold the line, love isnt always on time, oh oh oh
Hold the line, love isnt always on time, oh oh oh

Its not in the words that you told me, girl
Its not in the way you say youre mine, ooh
Its not in the way that you came back to me
Its not in the way that your love set me free
Its not in the way you look or the things that you say that youll do

This song has cool lyrics

Blinded by the light,
revved up like a deuce,
another runner in the night
Madman drummers bummers,
Indians in the summer with a teenage diplomat
In the dumps with the mumps as the adolescent pumps his way into his hat
With a boulder on my shoulder, feelin' kinda older,
I tripped the merry-go-round
With this very unpleasin', sneezin' and wheezin,
the calliope crashed to the ground

I love these lyrics... "Just Remember I Love You" by Firefall ....


When it all goes crazy and the thrill is gone
When the days get rainy and the nights get long
When you get that feelin you were born to lose
Starin' at your ceiling feelin' the blues

When there's so much trouble that you want to cry
When your love has crumbled and you don't know why
When your hopes are fading and they can't be found
Dreams have left you waiting friends let you down

Well just remember I love you
And it'll be all right
Just remember I love you
All that I can say just remember I love you
Maybe all your blues will fade away

When you need a lover and you're down so low
And you start to wonder but you never know
When it seems like sorrow is your only friend
Knowing that tomorrow you'll feel this way again

When the blues come cryin' at the break of dawn
When the rain keeps fallin' but the rainbow's gone
When you feel like cryin' but the tears won't come
Then your dreams are dyin' when you're on the run

Just remember I love you
And it'll be all right
Just remember I love you
All that I can say just remember I love you
Maybe all your blues will wash away
