What's your favorite lyric from a song?


Just curious what stays with people...

Stephen Sondheim wrote many great lyrics but perhaps this one (from Send in the Clowns) nails down relationship problems better than anyone?


’Don’t you love a farce?
My fault, I fear
I thought that you’d want what I want
Sorry, my dear!
But where are the clowns?
Send in the clowns
Don’t bother, they’re here’

"For long you live and high you fly
smiles you give and tears you cry
All you touch and all you see
Is all your life will ever be."

Waters


Things I miss the most- Steely Dan


The talk
The sex
Somebody to trust
The Audi TT
The house on the Vineyard
The house on the Gulf Coast
These are the things I miss the most
"Told you once before
And I won't tell you no more
Get down, get down, get down
You're a bad dog, baby
But I still want you around"

Get Down - Gilbert O'Sullivan
