What's you're favorite "lyric to live by"?

A few nominees:





"One in a while you get shown the light in the strangest of places, if you look at it right"


- Grateful Dead, Scarlet Begonias





"And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make"


- Beatles, The End





"They've got to catch me if they want me to hang"


- AC/DC Back in Black (ok this is a bad one if you actually live by it, but it's fun)





"I have no fear of falling, but I hate hitting the ground"


- Badlees, Fear of Falling

What's you're favorite "lyric to live by"?
My favourites are Robbie Williams, "No Regrets":


"I didn't lose my mind - it was mine to give away" and


"Often I sit down and think of you for a while, then it passes me by and I think of someone else instead".





Madness "It must be love", which always makes me happy:


"As soon as I wake up, every night, every day, I know that it's you I need to take the blues away."





Also Enya "Only Time", for more reflective moments:


"Who can say if your love grows as your heart chose? Only time. And who can say where the road goes where the day flows? Only time."

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day


You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way.


Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town


Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.





Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain.


You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today.


And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.


No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun.





So you run and you run to catch up with the sun but it's sinking


Racing around to come up behind you again.


The sun is the same in a relative way but you're older,


Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.





Every year is getting shorter never seem to find the time.


Plans that either come to naught or half a page of scribbled lines


Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way


The time is gone, the song is over,


Thought I'd something more to say.
