What's your favorite lyric from a song?

"Just had the strangest day of my life
worse than the last day with my first wife"

"Wasn't I Paying Attention" Amanda Shires

"I wanna do right
but not right now"

"Look At Miss Ohio"  Gillian Welch

Just Another Day - Oingo Boingo

@almarg  thanks for the update. I do like the Sinatra and Robeson versions but Judy's version is the one that sticks. By the time she recorded it she had certainly been through some difficult times.

Anyway, speaking of Mr Robeson. Here's my favourite lyric as sung by him. I'm pretty sure we've all been through something similar:

Passing By

There is a lady sweet and kind
Was never face so pleased my mind,
I did but see her passing by
And yet I love her till I die!

Her gestures, motions and her smile
Her wit, her voice, my heart beguile;
Beguile my heart, I know not why
And yet I love her till I die!

Cupid is winged, and doth range
Her country; so my heart doth change.
But change the earth, or change the sky
Yet will I love her till I die!

Is she talking about audiophiles?
