Friends I saw they just brought me down
They’re so cynical and bitter
Well I guess I’m just like them now
I never thought I’d turn out like that
Could you take me back and try me
Try me again?

Linda Ronstadt:

And she touched me for a moment
with a look that spoke to me of her sweet love
Then the woman that she was drove her on with desperation
and I saw as she went a most hopeless situation
For Joanne, and the man, and the time that made them both wrong.

Michael Nesmith:

Comes a time when you’re driftin’
Comes a time when you settle down
Comes a light, feelin’s liftin’
Lift that baby right up off the ground.

Neil Young:

David Bromberg:

The moon can do what he pleases
He can cry so much that he sneezes
And if a falling star falls in my yard
Well I’ll pick up the pieces
Get out of here .

Dr. Dog:

I’d had a thing with a guy a long time ago, and years later, I still couldn’t even think about him without wanting to slap myself in the head. I was invited to lunch with a friend and his co-worker, and she turned out to work with this guy — who’d basically had affairs with every other woman in the entire office.

And I know it seems weird, but it made me feel better that so many other women fell for his lies.

Dayna Kurtz:

A certain person could never be
Love runs deeper than any ocean
You can cloud your mind with emotion
Everybody plays the fool sometime
There’s no exception to the rule.

The Main Ingredient:

Aretha Franklin:

Hey, I had my heart set on you
And nothing else hurts like you do
Who knew that love was so cruel
And I
Waited and waited so long
For someone who’d never come home.

Christine Aguilera and Blake Shelton:
