Got seven women on my mind. Four that want to own me, two that want to stone me, and one says she's a friend of mine.

Also, right at that particular time in the music business, because of people like the Beatles, people began owning their own publishing. I'll just say this really quickly - they used to divide the money for the music that was written in two, just equal halves.

Very often it's really inconvenient - who you fall in love with. You can't really control it.

Caught between the longing for love, and the struggle for the legal tender, where the sirens sing and the church bells ring, and the junk man pounds his fender. Where the veterans dream of the fight, fast asleep at the traffic light, and the children solemnly wait for the ice cream vendor.

Forget what life used to be, you are what you choose to be. It's whatever it is you see that life will become.

I'd have to say that my favorite thing is writing a song that really says how I feel, what I believe - and it even explains the world to myself better than I knew it.

And while the future's there for anyone to change, still you know it's seems, It would be easier sometimes to change the past.
