Every moment of my life, I will testify to love. Be a witness in the silence, but words are not enough.
I do not know the title... I just heard the song.

Actually, that David Bowie line should be attributed to Queen....Bowie was just part of the Duet.
Still...good song

So, is that what you call a getaway? Tell me what you got away with. Cause I've seen more spine in jellyfish. I've seen more guts in eleven-year-old kids. Have another drink and drive yourself home. I hope there's ice on all the roads. And you can think of me when you forget your seatbelt, and again when your head goes through the windshield. -Brand New 70 times 7 Your favourite weapon

Now, how 'bout a country song, y'all? I'm sure many people around the world must think we Tennesseans are a bunch of honky-tonking, beer drinking rednecks. This is not the reality, but I do have some favorite country artists and Tim McGraw is definitely a favorite. Here is one of his songs that I think is from his best CD "Set This Circus Down" The song is "Grown Men Don't Cry." Here is the first stanza...
I pulled into the shopping center And saw a little boy wrapped around the legs of his mother Like ice cream melting they embraced Years of bad decisions runnin' down her face All mornin' I'd been thinkin' my life's so hard And they wore everything they own, livin' in a car I wanted to tell 'em it would be ok But I got just got in my suburban and I drove away
But I don't know why they say grown men don't cry I don't know why they say grown men don't cry

The wind can blow cold, it moans and it cries When it carries the sound of a thousand goodbyes But if you listen tonight on that high, lonely plain You'll just hear my voice as it calls out your name You'll just hear my voice as it calls out your name.

George Michaels - One More Try
I've Had Enough Of Danger And people on the streets I'm looking out for angels Just trying to find some peace Now i think it's time That you let me know So if you love me Say you love me But if you don't Just let me go....
'Cos teacher There are things that i don't want to learn And the last one i had Made me cry So i don't want to learn to Hold you, touch you Think that you're mine Because it ain't no joy For an uptown boy Whose teacher has told him goodbye
When you were just a stranger And i was at your feet I didn't feel the danger Now i feel the heat That look in your eyes Telling me no So you think that you love me Know that you need me I wrote the song, i know it's wrong Just let me go....
And teacher There are things That i don't want to learn Oh the last one i had Made me cry So i don't want to learn to Hold you, touch you Think that you're mine
Because it ain't no joy For an uptown boy Whose teacher has told him goodbye So when you say that you need me That you'll never leave me I know you're wrong , you're not that strong Let me go
And teacher There are things That i still have to learn Hut the one thing i have is my pride Oh so i don't want to Hold you, touch you Think that you're mine Because there ain't no joy For an uptown boy Who just isn't willing to try I'm so cold inside Maybe just one more try

I know you're coming in the night like a thief, but i've had some time, O Lord, to hone my lying technique, i know you think that i'm someone you can trust, but i'm scared i'll get scared and i swear i'll try to nail you back up -jesus christ, brand new
If I'm the sum of all my friends, then all my friends are some of me, and if you're some way just like them, then I am you to some degree. you (don't) know me, the matches

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line Miles away from those I love Purpose hard to find While I recall, all the world you spoke to me Can help but wished that I was there Back where I loved to be
Dear God The only thing I ask of you is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away we all need, the person who can be true to you but I left her when I found her, and now I wish I'd stayed 'Cos I'm lonely, and I'm tired, I'm missing you again, oh no Once again
There's nothing here, for me on this barren road There's no one here while the city sleeps, and all the shops are closed Can't help but think, all the time I've had with you Pictures and some memories, will have to help me through
Some search, never finding a way Before love, it wastes away I've found you, something told me to stay But I gave in, so selfish way And how I miss someone to hold, when hope begins to fade..
for me the best line song is from the song "glory of love" by chicago...
"...i am the man who will fight for your honor i'll be the hero you been dreaming of...we live forever...knowing together that we...did it all for the glory go love... is it romantic?

Cole Porter has probably got the highest %age of great lines. Here's a great intro, for example, to one of his songs, You're The Top, from the show Anything Goes, 1934.
At words poetic I'm so pathetic That I always have found it best Instead of getting 'em off my chest, To let 'em rest - unexpressed. I hate parading my serenading, As I'll probably miss a bar, But if this ditty is not so pretty, At least it'll tell you how great you are.
