I can hear her heart beat for a thousand miles
And the heavens open every time she smiles
And when I come to her that's where I belong
Yet I'm running to her like a river's song
(Van Morrison, 'Crazy Love', 1970)

crazy love
I can hear her heart beat for a thousand miles
And the heavens open every time she smiles
And when I come to her that's where I belong
Yet I'm running to her like a river's song
(Van Morrison, 'Crazy Love', 1970)
lonely but not alone
'Cause I'm a picker
I'm a grinner
I'm a lover
And I'm a sinner
I play my music in the sun
(Steve Miller, 'The Joker', 1973)
the tree behind the wall
We chased our pleasures here
Dug our treasures there
But can you still recall
The time we cried
Break on through to the other side

up the stairs
It's a long way to the top
If you wanna rock 'n' roll
(AC-DC, 'It's A Long Way To The Top', 1975)
steps beneath the moon
'Come then, bright Hope! in smiles array'd,
Revive usby thy quick'ning breath,
Then shall we never be afraid
To walk thro' danger and thro' death

the great escape to the sky
I wish that I could fly
Into the sky
So very high
Just like a dragonfly
(Lenny Kravitz, 'Fly Away', 1998)
hold me tight
Well, we all need someone we can lean on
And if you want it, well you can lean on me
She said my breasts they will always be open
Baby, you can rest your weary head on me
(The Rolling Stones, Let It Bleed, 1969)
the girl with the sun in her eyes
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,
Towering over your head.
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes,
And she's gone.
(The Beatles, 'Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds', 1967)
behind bars
This place is a prison, these people aren't your friends
Inhaling thrills through $20 bills and the
Tumblers are drained and then flooded again and again
(The Postal Service, 'This Place Is A Prison')
cannon balls flying
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
(Bob Dylan, 'Blowin' In The Wind', 1963)
in vain
Now I was sitting waiting wishing
That you believed in superstitions
Then maybe you'd see the signs
But Lord knows that this world is cruel
And I ain't the Lord, no I'm just a fool
Learning loving somebody don't make them love you
Must I always be waiting waiting on you?
Must I always be playing playing your fool?
(Jack Johnson, 'Sitting, Waiting, Wishing', 2005)
the way back home
Don't waste your words
I've already grown
I'm gonna find my way back home
(Starsailor, 'Way Back Home', 2006)

Living for you is easy living
Its easy to live when youre in love
And Im so in love
There is nothing in life but you

the steel door
And the tales you have taught me
From the things that you saw
Makes me want out your heart, please, please
From behind that locked door
(George Harrison, Behind That Locked Door, 1970)
frame me
She may be the mirror of my dreams
A smile reflected in a stream
She may not be what she may seem
Inside her shell
(Charles Aznavour/Elvis Costello, Tous Les Visage De L'Amour/She)
climb that wall
I'm careful not to fall
I have to climb your wall
'Cause you're the one
Who makes me feel much taller than you are
(Placebo, 'Peeping Tom')
the invisible handgun
In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum
Jacob wrestled the angel
And the angel was overcome
You plant a demon seed
You raise a flower of fire
See them burning crosses
See the flames higher and higher
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue
Bullet the blue
(U2, 'Bullet The Blue Sky, 1987)
the evening sun
May the good lord shine a light on you
Make every song your favourite tune
May the good lord shine a light on you
Warm like the evening sun

Jad's scarf
Hey jude, dont be afraid.
You were made to go out and get her

It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain
(America, 'Horse with No Name', 1971)
the sky above us (hey Eugene)
Hey, Eugene,
This is Henry McClean
And I've finished my beautiful flying machine
And I'm ringing to say
That I'm leaving and maybe
You'd like to fly with me
And hide with me, baby
Point me at the sky and tell it fly
(Pink Floyd, 'Point Me At The Sky', 1968)

So I got bored and left them there,
They were just deadweight to me
Better down the road without that load
(Neil Young, 'Thrasher', 1979)
