Quotes

  • I'm a songwriter first, have always been, and probably always will be. Making the demo is a natural product of writing a song; after that, I'm happy to hear other people do it in other ways.
  • The song is the center; the song is the key. If you don't have a good song you don't have anything by my value.
  • Tonight you're mine completely, You give your love so sweetly Tonight the light of love is in your eyes, But will you love me tomorrow?
  • I'd like to know that your love Is love I can be sure of, So tell me now and I won't ask again, Will you still love me tomorrow?
  • All you have to do is touch my handTo show me you understandAnd something happens to me.That's some kind of wonderful.
  • I want to be your loverBut your friend is all I've stayed.I'm only halfway to paradise,So near, yet so far away.
