What's your favorite line from any song?

Ooh baby baby, how was I suppose to know? :)

and my time is a piece of wax, fallen on a termite,
who’s chokin’ on the splinters

Beck

Take my hand, knot your fingers through mine and we’ll walk from this dark room for the last time..
And
I want so much to open your eyes. ‘Cause I need you to look into mine.

Both lines from the song Open Your Eyes by Snow Patrol.

Very nice. I like Beck, I’ll have to check out Snow Patrol.

If you told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand In the Air Tonight by Phil Collins

“I’m a friendly stranger with a black sedan, wont you hop inside my car? I got pictures, candies, I’m a loveble man, I’m gonna take you to the nearest star…”

Tell me does she love you like the way I love you
Does she stimulate you attract and captivate you
Tell me does she miss you existing just to kiss you
Like the way I do
Tell me does she want you infatuate and haunt you
She knows just how to shock you electrify and rock you
Does she inject you seduce you and affect you
Like the way I do

Haunting, familiar, yet I can’t seem to place it, cannot find the candle of thought to light your name; lifetimes are catching up with me

Elderly woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town, Pearl Jam

“cannot find a candle of thought to light your name” is such beautiful imagery to me.

Looking on the website “To Catch a Predator” for @Otto_King

We have lost once before
Now we’ll settle the score
When our cannons will roar
REVOLUTION!

Chris DeBurgh, “The Revolution”

Well, maybe I’m just too young to keep good love from going wrong.
Jeff Buckley – Lover, You Should Have Come Over

Again, one of those questions where it’s very hard to pick just one but this one’s in my top 10:

sometimes you’re the windshield
sometimes you’re the bug
sometimes it all comes together baby
sometimes you’re a fool in love
sometimes you’re the louisville slugger
sometimes you’re the ball
sometimes it all comes together baby
sometimes you’re going to lose it all

That’s actually the whole chorus, rather than just one line; the first line is one of my favorites It’s from The Bug by Mark Knopfler

Limitless, undying love
Which shines around me like a
Million suns, it calls me on and on
Across the universe

~John Lennon

“Come bring me your sweetness,
With you I’m born again.”

One of my all time favourite lyrics is “the angels had guitars even before they had wings” from Rock n Roll Dreams Come Through by Meat Loaf. In fact, the whole song is full of lyrics that I love.

It was on the good ship Venus
By christ ya shoulda seen us
The figurehead was a whore in bed
And the mast was a mammoth penis

I’m not a number. Dammit, I’m a man. – Bob Seger, Feel Like A Number

“And in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make.” – Beatles, The End

@chyna I didn’t get it. Why do you look at that for me?

@Otto_King Sorry, I was joking. That song was considered a thinly veiled pickup little girls song, at least where I live.

What new mystery is this? In overflowing emptiness
the invisible is seen among the shadows and the mist.
Before my doubting eyes the infinite appears in time -
the unquestionable is questioned but makes no reply!

Ooh @AstroChuck stole mine (a great choice Chuck).

So here’s my #2:

”And a woman needs a man, like a fish needs a bicycle”
U2

@jonsblond: I love your choice also.

But she’s sure not the worst I’ve had
It really didn’t matter when she said it was over
The thing that hurt is when she looked at me
And said I’ll never be as good as my father!

Morgana Jones Kenny Rogers

We all come to an end
And we all end together
– Stars – Don’t Be Afraid To Sing

or

It’s that
Love’s in need of love today
Don’t delay
Send yours in right away
Hate’s goin’ round
Breaking many hearts
Stop it please
Before it’s gone too far
– Stevie Wonder – Love’s In Need Of Love Today

or just about anything by stevie wonder.

Asylums with doors open wide
Where people could pay to see inside
For entertainment they watch his body twist
Behind his eyes he says: I still exist

“Who the hell you callin’ crazy? You wouldn’t know what crazy was if Charles Manson was eating Froot Loops on your front porch!”

Suicidal Tendencies – “You Can’t Bring Me Down”

This is a real song and a real line from that song….................
“When i was a boy in Sunday School,
The teacher was teaching the golden rule,
When the choir stood up to sing,
She was playing with my ding-a-ling.”

Chuck Berry.

We are the kings of wisdom, of fools as well, we are the gods too many, we are humble men. We who build great works, just to bring them down, we who make our own rules, so we never fail.
Joy, Funker Vogt.

Porcupine Tree ~ Piano Lessons

I remember piano lessons
The hours in freezing rooms
Cruel ears and tiny hands
Destroying timeless tunes

the sign says closed for renovation
this is a con we all see through
it spreads like a poison through the town,
monkey see and monkey do
turn your slum into a mine, squeeze ‘em
hard for every dime
the people will paint your criminals, but
you can’t see the crime

Spirit of the West

Inspiration moved me brightly,.
like a song with sense and color rolls aways despair
more than this I dare not ask, faced with mysteries dark and vast
crickets and cicadas sing, a rare and different tune

I may be intrepreting a couple of words wrong, it’s like my poor eyes

I forgot about this one. I’m not even much of a Billy Joel fan but I love this line:

You may be right
I may be crazy.
But it just may be a lunatic you’re looking for.
