Golden Lyrics....

[Okguy99]

How does it FEEL? to be on your own...Like a Rolling Stone!

[Poet Laureate]

For my money one of the best pieces of lyrics ever written:

Papa was a rolling stone
Wherever he laid his hat was his home
And when he died
All he left us was alone...

[Poet Laureate]

And my pick for the most beautiful love song I've ever heard. Check it out on the Queen album A Day At The Races:

Teo Torriatte

When I'm gone
No need to wonder if I ever think of you
The same moon shines
The same wind blows
For both of us, and time is but a paper moon. . . be not gone

Though I'm gone
It's just as though I hold the flower that touches you
A new life grows
The blossom knows
There's no one else could warm my heart as much as you. . . be not gone

Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love, my love
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned

Teo Torriate konomama iko
Aisuruhito yo
Shizukana yoi ni
Hikario tomoshi
Itoshiki oshieo idaki

Hear my song
Still think of me the way you've come to think of me
The nights grow long
But dreams live on
Just close your pretty eyes and you can be with me. . . dream on

When I'm gone
They'll say we're all fools and we don't understand
Oh be strong
Don't turn your heart
You're all
We're all
For all
For always. . .

Let us cling together as the years go by
Oh my love, my love
In the quiet of the night
Let our candle always burn
Let us never lose the lessons we have learned

Let it be - The Beatles

btw if you have never seen Across the Universe I highly suggest it.

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

And when the broken hearted people
Living in this world agree,
There will be an answer, let it be
For though they may be parted there is
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

And when the night is cloudy
There's still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow, let it be

I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom, I want you to let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
There will be an answer, let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

"But now I'm praying for the end of time that's all that I can do......"

[FoulRon]

Or how about a little Harry Nillson:

"You're breaking my heart
You're tearing it apart
So fuck you!"

Actually, the songs "Turn on Your Radio" and "Remember (Christmas)" are a couple of my all-time faves.

I want a little sugar in my bowl
-Nina Simone

Stuck in my head right now: "Punch, Fight, Fuck" from Hank 3

[Ts AmberRose]

I love myself
I want you to love me
When I'm feelin' down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me

I don't want anybody else
When I think about you
I touch myself
I don't want anybody else
Oh no, oh no, oh no

You're the one who makes me happy honey
You're the sun who makes me shine
When you're around I'm always laughing
I want to make you mine

I close my eyes
And see you before me
Think I would die
If you were to ignore me
A fool could see
Just how much I adore you
I get down on my knees
I'd do anything for you

I love myself
I want you to love me
When I'm feelin' down
I want you above me
I search myself
I want you to find me
I forget myself
I want you to remind me

I want you
I don't want anybody else
And when I think about you
I touch myself
Ooh, oooh, oooooh, aaaaaah

All these years and I thought the last line was "All he left us was a loan". Stupid me.

What's your favorite lyric??

Cause grandma won't give no tail.
You got to use what Mother Nature gave you,
Before Father Time takes it away...."
