What is your favorite song lyric?

If you had a song that you considered to be better at describing you, or you just hold it close to your heart, what would it be? It could be any type of song, any genre, and ultimately the meaning that the song has would be unique to the individual that posts.

What I am looking for as well if it differs, is the song lyric that you would put on your tombstone if you could only pick song lyrics.

My selection for the first portion of the thread would be Farewell Ride, by Beck.

The second one would be the line

How could this love
Ever turning
Never turn its eye on me
How could this love
Ever changing
Never change the way I feel

from Lonesome Tears by Beck.

Just look at the signature. It's Dancers to a Discordant System by Meshuggah. Conspiracy metal at it's finest.

ETA I apologise in advance if "Sheilas" listen to Kevin Bloody Wilson too!

Can't Take My Eyes off You - Frankie Valli and The 4 Seasons.

I can't choose one particular line or chorus, but this is the song I would spontaneously start singing to my babys while I would sit quietly feeding them.

Then years later I met my second Husband, guess what he sang to me? this same song and it literally swept me off my feet, how uncanny is that.

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you

Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothing else to compare
The sight of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
So if you feel like I feel
Please let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you


I love you baby and if it's quite all right
I need you baby to warm the lonely nights
I love you baby, trust in me when I say
Oh pretty baby, don't bring me down I pray

Oh pretty baby, now that I've found you stay
And let me love you baby, let me love you

You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
I wanna hold you so much
At long last love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you



Love and harmony
Whateva

better watch out for the thought police
don't think don't move don't even breathe
better not have subversive thoughts
no choice no hope is what you've got
government impaths are scanning your mind
careful what you think or you'll be caught

Boom Boom Boom lets go back to my room, so we can do it all night and you can make me feel right…..

Oh did you say my favourite? Sorry I thought you said DISPISE!

OK…… this is me (hard choice, so many to choose from)

Just when I thought I could not be stopped
When my chance came to be king
The ghosts of my life
Blew wilder than the wind

Ghosts, by David Sylvian 1983 (yes, I'm old)
