"Once up on a time, you dressed so fine.

Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you".Bob Dylan

You consider me the young apprentice

Caught between the Scylla and Charibdes

Hypnotized by you if I should linger

Staring at that ring around your finger

I have only come here seeking knowledge,

Things they would not teach me of in college

I can see the destiny you sold

Turned into that shining band of gold

I'll be wrapped around your finger

 

Mephistopheles is not your name

But I know what you're up to just the same

I will listen hard to your tuition

And you will see it come to its fruition

 

I'll be wrapped around your finger

 

Devil on the deep blue sea behind me

Vanish in the air you'll never find me

I will turn your face to alabaster

When you find your servant is your master

 

And you'll be wrapped around my finger

 

 

 

This the best Police song by far....and one of the most haunting.....

Phil Collins-IND THE AIR TONIGHT

 

 

I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord

I've been waiting for this moment, all my life, Oh Lord

Can you feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord, Oh Lord

 

Well, if you told me you were drowning

I would not lend a hand

I've seen your face before my friend

But I don't know if you know who I am

Well, I was there and I saw what you did

I saw it with my own two eyes

So you can wipe off the grin, I know where you've been

It's all been a pack of lies

 

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord

I've been waiting for this moment for all my life, Oh Lord

I can feel it in the air tonight, Oh Lord, Oh Lord

And I've been waiting for this moment all my life, Oh Lord, Oh Lord

 

Well I remember, I remember don't worry

How could I ever forget, it's the first time, the last time we ever met

But I know the reason why you keep your silence up, no you don't fool me

The hurt doesn't show; but the pain still grows

It's no stranger to you or me

 

And I can feel it coming in the air tonight, Oh Lord...

 

 

One of my favorit songs...love the drums and all the urban legends surrounding this song

I can think of tons of them from the Eagles. Just every line of most Eagles songs are great quotes but here is a few.

 

Don't you draw the Queen of Diamonds boy, she'll beat you if she's able.

You know the Queen of Hearts is always your best bet.

Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your table,

But you only want the ones you can't get. Desperado

 

I've got seven women on my mind:

four that wanna own me, two that wanna stone me,

one says she's a friend of mine. Take it Easy

 

That only a few of many.

This whole song is one big fantastic quote.

 

All that you touch

All that you see

All that you taste

All you feel.

All that you love

All that you hate

All you distrust

All you save.

All that you give

All that you deal

All that you buy,

beg, borrow or steal.

All you create

All you destroy

All that you do

All that you say.

All that you eat

And everyone you meet

All that you slight

And everyone you fight.

All that is now

All that is gone

All that's to come

and everything under the sun is in tune

but the sun is eclipsed by the moon.

 

Pink Floyd ~ Eclipse

And after a while, you can work on points for style.

Like the club tie, and the firm handshake,

A certain look in the eye and an easy smile.

You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to,

So that when they turn their backs on you,

You'll get the chance to put the knife in. ~ Pink Floyd ~ Dogs

Desperado is my favorite song. And of course, The Eagles, my favorite group! :ylsuper:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Pink Floys is just......weird. :irked:

Blasphemy! :fight:

It's not weird, you have to think a little about the lyrics, they're actually about something.

Why do I have to keep explaining this to you?

Because, if I have to play it, I want to understand it!

"A boy is born in Hardtime, Mississippi,

Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty".

Stevie Wonder's "Livin' For The City"

Otis Redding's "Dock Of The Bay"

"Ive got two tickets to paradise, pack your bags we'll leave tonight"

 

Eddie Money baby

"The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time"-James Taylor

Breathe deep the gathering gloom

Watch lights fade from every room

Bedsitter people look back and lament

Another day's useless energy spent.

 

Impassioned lovers wrestle as one,

Lonely man cries for love and has none.

New mother picks up and suckles her son,

Senior citizens wish they were young.

 

Cold hearted orb that rules the night,

Removes the colors from our sight.

Red is grey and yellow white,

But we decide which is right.

And which is an illusion?

 

Moody Blues ~ Late Lament

I agree with this whole song and it just brings up so many memories already.

 

I Feel Home- O.A.R.

 

There are few things pure in this world anymore, and home is one of the few

We'd have a drink outside maybe run and hide, if we saw a couple men in blue

But to me it's so dang easy to see that your people are the people at home

Well I been away but now I'm back today and there ain't a place I'd rather go

 

I feel home when I see the faces that remember my own

I feel home when I'm chillin outside with the people I know

I feel home, and that's just what I feel

Cause home, to me, is reality and all I need is something real

 

We're feeling alright headin out tonight maybe off to a dark driveway

I say now, some feel bored, and some are looking for more, but we all just decide to stay

We got nothing to do, but when I look at you I see something that I know and love

And with the crack of a smile we all stay awhile, we know from home their ain't nothin above

 

Well in the end, we can all call a friend, well that's something that I know as true

In a thousand years, and a thousand tears, I'll come finding my original crew

Cause to me throughout eternity there is somewhere we are welcome to go

I said it's something free that means a lot to me, when I'm with my friends I feel home
