Somebody asked me what I wanted to do. I just said I wanted toโฆjust to give back to it what itโs given me. And to meet all the other people that are doing itโฆjust to be in the world, really.
Jeff BuckleyI think I would really lay down and die. Music comes from a very primal, twisted place. When a person sings, their body, their mouth, their eyes, their words, their voice says all these unspeakable things that you really can't explain but that mean something anyway. People are completely transformed when they sing; people look like that when they sing or when they make love. But it's a weird thingโat the end of the night I feel strange, because I feel I've told everybody all my secrets.
Jeff BuckleyBut music seems to me to be the most closely identified with my soul. I mean, I feel that itโs the best for me. It just gets into the bloodstream so quickly, for no reason at all. You can close your heart, and you can sleep even with your eyes closed, but you can never close your ears.
Jeff BuckleySometimes a man gets carried away when he feels like he should be having his fun and much too blind to see the damage he's done, oh sometimes a man must awake to find that really he has no one. So I'll wait for you and I'll burn will I ever see your sweet return, oh will I ever learn? Oh, Lover you should've come over. Oh love well I'm waiting for you.
