You're never anywhere I find you
You're never anything I rely upon.

And I just can’t go on… so please don’t do me wrong

Nobody loves me, it’s true, not like you do.

I want a daughter while I’m still young, I want to hold her hand and show her some beauty before this damage is done, but if it’s too much to ask, if it’s so too much to ask, then send me a son.

Stealing booze and hour long, hungry kisses, nobody knows me at home anymore.

And sometimes you close your eyes and see the place where you used to live, when you were young.

I love the suburbs

I love you from the bottom of my pencil case.

Great choice!

Show quote history

Yeah 😉So many Floyd lines. My favourite would be: 'Welcome my son, welcome, to the machine. What did you dream? It's alright, we told you what to dream!'

I also like, from The Beatles:
'There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be'

My daughter in law killed me for the money
she thought I’d left them in my Will

That makes me laugh every time.

but “everybody is a sexy baby” makes me cringe

There's a man outside
In a long coat, grey hair, smoking a cigarette

i love that song.. I can visualise it like some sort of science fiction

Oh I want, I want you to baby-sit my children
While I go out on the razzle

Oooohh Marion. I loved their album. Listened to it on repeat when I was 15 lying on my bed snogging my boyfriend

Time may change me
But I can't change time

And you know that when the truth is told; you can get what you want or you can just get old...

FuckYouEzekiel · 01/01/2024 01:08

I'm not a human, I am a dove
I'm your conscience, I am love
All I really need is to know that you believe

Prince,I would die for u.

I wanna be Bob Dylan
Mr. Jones wishes he was someone just a little more funky
When everybody loves you, ah son
That's just about as funky as you can be

Counting Crows

I had dreams, they were clouds in my coffee.

She was a rare thing, fine as a beeswing. So fine a breathe of wind might blow her away. She was a lost child, she was running wild, she said as long as there's no price on love I'll stay, you wouldnt want me any other way.

Isn't it just so pretty to think all along there was some invisible string tying me to you

Beeswing is one of my favourites!

I thought it would have been your user name 😂

No grave can hold my body down, I’ll crawl home to her.

HalloweenIsDone · 01/01/2024 01:19

I'm contemplating thinking about thinking.

Alalalalalongalalalalalonglonglilong · 01/01/2024 01:20

Standing across the room I saw you smile.
I said I want to talk to you for a little while.

Enjoy @Fannyfiggs 😉

HoggyDunlop · 01/01/2024 01:20

Break my soul in two
Looking for you but you're right here
If I can't relate to you anymore
Then who am I related to?

(Taylor Swift, Coney Island)
Really sums up how it feels to be losing a parent to dementia 💔

Time won’t fly, it’s like I’m paralysed by it.

( Taylor Swift- All too Well)

I’d like to be my old self again, but I’m still trying to find it!

The ten minute version is my absolute favourite song ❤️

OwlDoll · 01/01/2024 01:22

Let me drown in your laughter
Let me die in your arms.

MagpieCastle · 01/01/2024 01:24

You are in my blood like holy wine, you taste so bitter and so sweet
I could drink a case of you, darling and I would still be on my feet, oh I would still be on my feet.

HoggyDunlop · 01/01/2024 01:26

A song that lights a fire of rage in me every time I hear it:

All day, every day, therapist, mother, maid
Nymph then virgin, nurse and a servant
Just an appendage, live to attend him
So that he never lifts a finger
24-7, baby machine
So he can live out his picket fence dreams
It's not an act of love if you make her
You make me do too much labour

user1471548941 · 01/01/2024 01:26

There's no chance for us
It's all decided for us
This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever

Who dares to love forever
Oh oo woh, when love must die
But touch my tears with your lips
Touch my world with your fingertips
And we can have forever
And we can love forever
Forever is our today
Who wants to live forever
Who wants to live forever
Forever is our today
Who waits forever anyway?

You call me up again just to break me like a promise. So casually cruel in the name of being honest.

AND

You showed me colours you know I can't see with anyone else.

Are you seeing her on tour?
