Your mother told you all that I could give you was a reputation.

There's an old man sitting next to me, making love to his tonic and gin.

They say that these are not the best of times, but they're the only times I've ever known. And I believe there is a time for meditation in cathedrals of our own. Now I have seen that sad surrender in my lovers eyes...and I can only stand apart and sympathize...for we are only what our situations hand us...it's either sadness or euphoria.

There was only really one accident that was kinda bad but it was nothing to do with booze, just bad luck... I was having a hard time a couple of years ago... I'm a good driver, I just had bad luck.

We all have a face that we hide away forever, and we take them out and show ourselves when everyone has gone.

When I was a young musician, the only option available to pursue secondary education in music was to attend a classical conservatory.

I'm probably writing music now for the same reason as I started writing songs when I was 14 - to meet women.
