37148, Stevie's words...
Posted by tREBLEFREE, Wed Mar-30-05 04:14 AM
I don't think it's yatchful at all to feel his words personally...but anyway...

Stevie has ALWAYS had some level of brilliance in his lyrics, but the ones that captivate me most are the ones that I log into my permanent memory the minute I heard them for the first time:

"Our love is at an end
But you say now you have changed
But tomorrow will reflect
love's past
spring will fill the air
and you will come around
it's that summer love that won't let me down
where were you when I needed you
last winter..."

"She's a girl in a dream
she's a four-eyed cartoon monster on a tv screen
she takes another puff and says it's a crazy scene
that red is green
and she's a tangerine"

"Feeding off the love of the land
leaving much to be desired
living off the love of the lord
while the price of life gets higher
isn't love to be admired?
has the good in man expired?
stealing all the love and the beauty of the land..."

Pardon all typos - I typed these from memory...
