- "I had no reason to be over optimistic, but somehow when you smile I could brave bad weather."
- "Where taxi drivers never stop talking, under slate grey Victorian sky. Here you'll find, my heart and I, and still we say come back, come back to Camden. And I'll be good, I'll be good, I'll be good, I'll be good."
- "But you been skankin' around with your talentless trash. You only shoot blanks at your cocksure best."
- "I'm not suggesting you get to line me up for questioning, but Jesus think about the bridges you are burning. And I'm betting that even though you knew it from the start, you'd rather be a bitch than be an ordinary broken heart."
- "Now I been out in the desert, just doin' my time, searchin' through the dust, lookin' for a sign. If there's a light up ahead, well brother I don't know, but I got this fever burnin' in my soul. So let's take the good times as they go and I'll meet you further on up the road."
- "I picked the nicest lawn and imagined the two of us rolling around down along the ground. I saw myself touch your face and I noticed jets begin to race above our heads. But I pinched my arm and remembered how much you hate me. I remembered the fact that I can't see what you need and I'm too stupid to be aware of the beauty that you give this place and how shitty this town would seem without you in it."
- "So I'll go walking in the streets 'til my heels bleed and I'll sing out my song in case the birds wish to sing along."
- "If you've got a quarter you can stick in my neck and I'll sing whatever song you want for whatever mood you're in. Isn't that what you expect? I can sing you to sleep."
- "The first time ever I saw your face, I thought the sun rose in your eyes. And the moon and stars were the gifts you gave, to the dark and the endless sky, my love. And the first time ever I kissed your mouth, I felt the earth move through my hands. Like the trembling heart of a captive bird that was there at my command. And the first time ever I lay with you, I felt your heart so close to mine. And I know our joy would fill the earth, and last till the end of time, my love."
