Only the ones who believe ever see what they dream, ever dream what comes true.

Solid stone is just sand and water...Sand and water and a million years gone by.

It's like I'll sit down and put my hands on the piano or the guitar, and then I'll hear a sound or I'll feel a chord that will resonate and then I'll get something happening in my voice. My voice is like a car that I get into and drive but I don't know where I'm going. And I record everything. And often, I sort of get into a state, a creative state that is, where I'm just feeling around melodically, and playing things off the top of my head. Then I go back and listen to it and for the first time, hear what I just did. It's like Elvis has left the building while the thing is happening.

People fall in love and swear they are so sure, then they turn around and say it's over. I never trusted love to come any closer till the moment you were mine.

All songs are already perfectly written. It is the writer's job to find it and get it on paper.

I'd rather write great songs because the word "commercial" is so subjective
