“Ha! It's poetry in motion. She turned her tender eyes to me, As deep as any ocean, As sweet as any harmony. Mm, but she blinded me with science (She blinded me with science!) And failed me in biology, yeah.”

Recorded in: She Blinded Me with Science" (1982)
“The Earth can be any shape you want it any shape at all Dark and cold or bright and warm long or thin or small If love is all you're missing look into your heart: Is anybody home? There are stones buried in your soul In time you'll come to understand this flat old Earth is in your gentle hands”

“I scare myself just thinking about you I scare myself when I'm without you I scare myself, the moment that you're gone I scare myself when I let my thoughts run But it's oh so very different when we're together And I'm so, so, so much calmer, I feel better 'Cause the stars already crossed our paths forever And the sooner that we realize it, the better And then I'll be with you and I won't scare myself And I'll know what to do and I won't scare myself And my thoughts will run and I won't scare myself And I'll think of you and I won't scare myself”

“Some people sing love songs Everybody's got one This isn't my love song It's more like my love-gone-wrong song She came to breakfast And stayed a week But the lie detectors Broke down each time she tried to speak Broke down when she said: "You came close Close but no cigar You didn't miss by far You know you came this close Close but no cigar." I remember, I remember, I remember The promise in your eyes As black as the night I drove you to the airport And I remember, I remember, I remember The wide Brazilian sky that swallowed you Then I hit thirty Guess I can't complain But I must have been lonely The night I bumped into Lorraine She came for coffee And stayed all night But the lie detectors Broke down every time I tried to smile Broke down like the story of my life And each dream I missed by half a mile Broke down when I told her: "You came close Close but no cigar You didn't miss by far You know you came this close Close but no cigar.”
