What'S Your Favorite Line (Or Two) From W(Ta)?


Recommended Posts

Deeper still than we can go

Further out than triremes row

Drowning slow

His memories persist

 

Out beyond the telescope’s pry

Up above the tallest Dutch dope high

He realized

This mystery is his

 

 

******

 

 

I will go, I will go, I will go

Into war's waters, I will wade

And I will know without remorse

Or regret the fairness of our trade

 

For you to live, I took your place

A deal was made and I was paid

And in gold as I was told

With a place where my body could be laid

You sing to yourself the rising, falling melody that you could never read without the choir's lead.

When the cool light shakes you like a chandelier.

We once belonged to a bird.

Part of who we are we don't explore.

Every building built to the sky will fall, don't try and tell me my everlasting love is alive.

Easy:

 

All the good with the bad

Make something that no one else has but

 

And:

 

I don´t care anymore,I don´t care anymore

You never know

 

I love sing this one with the kids in the car on our way to the beach or the swimming pool:windows open, sunny day,summer feeling... B)

This is an aural arms open wide -- a sonic shoulder for you to cry -i -i -i -

 

ANd

 

You wake with a start from a dream and know that I am gone

Hold out your hand,

there's so much we don't understand

 

Country Disappeared is full of great Tweedy lyrics:

 

When the cold night shakes you like a chandelier

The snowflakes break through the atmosphere,

and melt on the blue breath of the auctioneers and disappear.
