If I could read your mind, what a tale your thoughts could tell. Just like a paperback novel, the kind that drugstores sell.

You just get the vibes of your surroundings and it rubs off on you.

The house you live in will never fall down, if you pity the stranger who stands at your door.

I was happy to be in England, because my mother had always loved the royals, and so do I.

'If You Could Read My Mind' was written during the collapse of my marriage. It's a great song. No one has any gripes about it. I wondered what my wife and daughter might think. My daughter is the one who got me to correct 'The feelings that you lacked' to 'The feelings that we lacked'.

See the judge upon the bench who tries the case as best he can, see the wise and wicked ones who feed upon life's sacred fire, see the soldier with his gun who must be dead to be admired.
