Song Quotes

When it comes to sitting down and composing, there is no hesitation, no concern, no critics breathing fire down my neck. For me, writing a song is the purest part of all. No one can mess with that Picture Quote #1

If you’re going to write a song, try to get together with a collaborator because it’s better to write with collaborators Picture Quote #1

I walk outside and scream at the top of my lungs, and it maybe travels two blocks. A whale unleashes his cry, and it travels hundreds or even thousands of miles. Every whale in the ocean will at one time or another run into that song. And I figure whales probably don’t edit. If they think it, they say it... Whale talk is the truth, and in a very short period of time, if you’re a whale, you know exactly what it is to be you Picture Quote #1

A successful song comes to sing itself inside the listener. It is cellular and seismic, a wave coalescing in the mind and in the flesh. There is a message outside and a message inside, and those messages are the same, like the pat and thud of two heartbeats, one within you, one surrounding. The message of the lullaby is that it’s okay to dim the eyes for a time, to lose sight of yourself as you sleep and as you grow: if you drift, it says, you’ll drift ashore: if you fall, you will fall into place Picture Quote #1

The more the poet grows, the deeper the level of creative intuition descends into the density of his soul. Where formerly he could be moved to song, he can do nothing now, he must dig deeper Picture Quote #1

A choir is made up of many voices, including yours and mine. If one by one all go silent then all that will be left are the soloists. Don’t let a loud few determine the nature of the sound. It makes for poor harmony and diminishes the song Picture Quote #1

If you listen, you can hear it. The city, it sings. If you stand quietly, at the foot of a garden, in the middle of the street, on the roof of a house. It’s clearest at night, when the sound cuts more sharply across the surface of things, when the song reaches out to a place inside you. It’s a wordless song, for the most, but it’s a song all the same, and nobody hearing it could doubt what it sings. And the song sings the loudest when you pick out each note Picture Quote #1

We’ll leave now, so that this moment will remain a perfect memory... let it be our song and think of me every time you hear it Picture Quote #1

Passion now begins to wake and whom we desire, we will take then we’ll cut them down to the quick love itself the cruelest trick. Moved we are by loves sweet song though it plays not for long we can blow on embers bright till passion outtakes the light Picture Quote #1

I could not get my fill of looking. There should be a song for women to sing at this moment or a prayer to recite. But perhaps there is none because there are no words strong enough to name that moment Picture Quote #1

And little he knew of the things that ink may do, how it can mark a dead man’s thought for the wonder of later years, and tell of happening that are gone clean away, and be a voice for us out of the dark of time, and save many a fragile thing from the pounding of heavy ages; or carry to us, over the rolling centuries, even a song from lips long dead on forgotten hills Picture Quote #1

In the end, I wonder if the true movement of the world might not be a voice raised in song Picture Quote #1

All bags are pack ready to go I am standing here outside your door I hate to wake you up to say goodbye dawn is braking its early morn the taxi waiting he blowing his horn already I am so lonesome I could die so kiss me and smile for me tell me that you’ll wait for me and hold me like you never let me go cause leaving on a jet plane don’t know when ill be back again oh babe I hate to go there so many let you down so many time I played around I tell you know that don’t mean a thing every plase I go I’ll think of you every song I sing I’ll sing for you Picture Quote #1

The song is languid and speaks of love and loneliness and loss. Why does love seem to go with the sad things? Picture Quote #1

That I am your heart’s secret fills me with song. I wish I could sing of you here in my cage. You are my heart’s hidden poem. I reread you, memorize you every moment we’re apart Picture Quote #1

Forgetfulness heals everything and song is the most beautiful manner of forgetting, for in song man feels only what he loves Picture Quote #1

I could have guessed it all along, cuz now some drama queen is gonna write a song for me Picture Quote #1

That’s death and life, you see. We all shine on. You just have to release your hearts, alert your senses, and pay attention. A leaf, a star, a song, a laugh. Notice all the little things, because somebody is reaching out to you. Qualcuno ti ama. Somebody loves you Picture Quote #1

I do not think that you can be changing the end of a song or a story like that, as though it were quite separate from the rest. I think the end of a story is part of it from the beginning Picture Quote #1

You have stopped the arrow of time... There’s no meaning to this rhyme... Because my song will never mean as much as the one.. He once sang.. For you, yes, you Picture Quote #1

He sang his last song. And the words of that have never been written down. But it was sweet and of great beauty, and those that heard it were changed utterly. Some say it was the song that moves the stars Picture Quote #1

Other memories stick, no matter how much you wish they wouldn’t. They’re like a song you hate but can’t ever get completely out of your head, and this song becomes the background noise of your entire life, snippets of lyrics and lines of music floating up and then receding, a crazy kind of tide that never stops Picture Quote #1

When you’re dead, everything in the world is like a song that makes you cry Picture Quote #1

.. the fields might fall to fallow and the birds might stop their song awhile; the growing things might die and lie in silence under snow, while through it all the cold sea wore its face of storms and death and sunken hopes... and yet unseen beneath the waves a warmer current ran that, in its time, would bring the spring Picture Quote #1

Everywhere was singing, all over the house was singing, and outside the house was alive with singing, and the very air was song Picture Quote #1

It sounds silly, I know. But for me, the power of music rests in its ability to reach inside and touch the places where the deepest cuts lie. Like a benevolent God, a good song will never let you down. And sometimes, when you’re trying to find your way, one of those gods actually shows up and gives you directions Picture Quote #1

Phillip is a repository of random snatches of film dialogue and song lyrics. To make room for all of it in his brain, he apparently cleared out all the areas where things like reason and common sense are stored Picture Quote #1

Give up on trying to be original. Every song has been sung, every picture has been painted, and every story has been told. The best one can do is sing, draw, or tell it again well Picture Quote #1

Take a step, breathe in the world, give it out again in story, poem, song, art Picture Quote #1

Meanwhile music pounded / across hearts opening every valve to the desperate drama of being / a self in a song Picture Quote #1
