Best first line of a song.

All i can say is my life is pretty plain
i like watching the puddles gather rain
all i can do is pour some tea for two
and speak my point of view but its not sane
oops, sorry. Oh well,good song listen to it twice
I would dial the numbers
Just to listen to your breath
I would stand inside my hell
And hold the hand of death



I met my old lover
On the street last night
She seemed so glad to see me
I just smiled
And we talked about some old times
And we drank ourselves some beers
Still crazy afler all these years
Oh, still crazy after all these years


Music and lyrics by Paul Simon

And for you romantics out there,from one of the most under rated song writers of all time:



The lamp is burning low upon my table top
The snow is softly falling
The air is still in the silence of my room
I hear your voice softly calling
If I could only have you near
To breathe a sigh or two
I would be happy just to hold the hands I love
On this winter night with you

Music and lyrics by Gordon Lightfoot

"Busted flat in Baton Rouge..."
After closin' time at the Guernsey Fair, I detect the El Supremo in a room at the top of the stairs.
love that one Bilbo!!

Well I woke up Sunday morning,
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt.
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad,
So I had one more for dessert.

"(a-wa) O kodwa u zo-nge li-sa namhlange, (a-wa a-wa) Si-bona kwenze ka kanjani, (a-wa a-wa) Amanto mbazane ayeza"
