“If I knew what to doI'd do more than write a song for you”

“Throughout all of the changes that have happened in my life, one of the priorities I've had is to never change the way I write songs and the reasons I write songs. I write songs to help me understand life a little more. I write songs to get past things that cause me pain. And I write songs because sometimes life makes more sense to me when it's being sung in a chorus, and when I can write it in a verse.”

“I feel that by writing I am doing what is far more necessary than anything else.”

“And you won't write any more stupid songs about me?""Can't promise that. In fact, that may be all I do for the rest of my life.”

“I didn’t write that song to try and win you over, or to steal you away from him. I wrote it because I knew I never could.”

“There are more love songs than anything else. If songs could make you do something we'd all love one another.”
