“All romantics meet the same fate some day.Drunk and cynical and boring someone in some dark cafe.”

“Just before our love got lost you said"I am as constant as a northern star"And I said, constantly in the darkness,Where's that at?If you want me I'll be in the bar.”

“It's life's illusions that I recall, I really don't know life at all”

“You've got to shake your fists at lightning now, you've got to roar like forest fireYou've got to spread your light like blazes all across the skyThey're going to aim the hoses on you, show 'em you won't expireNot till you burn up every passion, not even when you dieCome on now, you've got to try, if you're feeling contempt, well then you tell itIf you're tired of the silent night, Jesus, well then you yell itCondemned to wires and hammers, strike every chord that you feelThat broken trees and elephant ivories conceal”

“So many things I would have done, but clouds got in my way.”

“There'll be icicles and birthday clothesAnd sometimes there'll be sorrow”

“We love our lovin'....but not like we love our freedom.”
