Subject: RE: saddest lines in song
An empty bottle, a broken heart,
And you're still on my mind.
-Luke McDaniel
Although I can't dismiss,
the memory of her kiss,
I guess she's not for me.
-Ira Gershwin
Hear the lonesome whippoorwill,
He sounds too blue to fly,
That means he's lost the will to live,
And I'm so lonesome I could cry.
-Hank Williams
The dust that Pancho bit down south,
Ended up in Lefty's mouth.
-Townes Van Zandt
Though they're gone the scenes were there,
Like broken dreams as in a mirror,
Made by the moon upon the water,
And our love was never stronger,
But the picture was broken,
By the waves we left behind.
At midnight on the water,
Once upon a time.
- I forgot who put the words to that wonderful tune.
