“We were orphans before we were ever the sons of these songs.”

“Tragically we’ve forgotten the reason we’re even here at all.Worst still, we remember it’s just that we feel so comfortable.Do we notice, do we even careAll the people that are lost out there?Don’t you remember how it felt ‘til someone showed you the way?”

“The acute scenes were still on our eyes, immediate and clear in the passion; and there were moments, too, in which we were outsiders and could draw away, as if we were in a plane and rose far, to a high focus above that coast, those cities, and this sea, with sight and feelings sharper than before”

“When we first came hereWe were cold and we were clearwith no colours on our skinWe were light and paper thin.And when we first came hereWe were cold and we were clearWith no colours on our skin'Till you let the Spectrum in.--Spectrum”

“And then I met the most wonderful boy in the world. We would take long walks by the river. We spent hours gazing into each others eyes. We were so very much in love. And then one day, he went away. And I thought I'd die, but I didn't. And when I didn't, I said to myself... is that all there is to love?”

“Much have we loved you... But (speechless) was our love, and with veils has it been veiled.Yet now it (cries aloud) unto you, and would stand revealed before you.And ever has it been that love knows not its own (depth) until .....THE HOUR OF SEPARATION.....”

“And have you traveled very far?Far as the eye can see.How often have you been there?Often enough to know.What did you see when you were there?Nothing that doesn't show.(from the 1967 song, "Baby You're a Rich Man".”
