“Outside the street’s on fire in a real death waltz between what’s flesh and what’s fantasy.”

When it comes to luck, you make your own.

It’s a sad man my friend who’s livin’ in his own skin and can’t stand the company.

Someday we’ll look back on this and it will all seem funny.

A time comes when you need to stop waiting for the man you want to become and start being the man you want to be.

I always wanted my music to influence the life you were living emotionally – with your family, your lover, your wife, and, at a certain point, with your children.

A time comes when you need to stop waiting for the man you want to become and start being the man you want to be.

Adult life is dealing with an enormous amount of questions that don’t have answers.

For one kiss, darling, I swear everything I would give. Cause you’re a walking, talking reason to live.

We gotta get out while we’re young, ’cause tramps like us, baby we were born to run.

The one thing I wished for my children is that they’d be readers.

Mister, I ain’t a boy, no I’m a man, and i believe in a promised land.

I gotta die with money cuz i wasn’t born with it.

I loved you, and my love had no return, And therefore my true love has been my death.
