The city gates at twilight,
and a red ship sinking,
behind winters grey wall.
Ice in the wind,
but a fire in the embers,
of my heart as darkness falls.
In a candlelit room,
where your eyes are laughing,
smoking on the red chair
And nothing in the world,
'cept the beating of my heart,
against the nerves of the air.Mystery of love.

Please forgive me
If I act a little strange
For I know not what I do
FEELS LIKE LIGHTNING RUNNING THROUGH MY VEINS
Every time I look at you.....which is exactly how I feel when I look at him and when I hear him singtoggle

My first fave has to be
"when you kiss me on that midnight street". It was the line and the image and the song that really got me into DG's music.Having said that there are so many beautiful lines and images in his work it is very hard to choose.

"Take your eyes off me,
There's nothing here to see,
Just tryin' to keep my head together"
FREEDOM"The ghosts are crawling on our skin
We may race and we may run
We'll not undo what has been done
Or change the moment when it's gone "
MEET ME ON THE OTHER SIDE"Knock me over stone cold sober
Not a thing I could say or do"
BE MINE"Your bright eyes are what
The time is
Twenty five past eternity"
NIGHTBLINDNESS"I've been talking all night long
There's nothing more to say
So I'm searching every mirror
For a trace of yesterday"
ONLY THE LONELY[ 29 May 2006: Message edited by: withers-vainikolo ]

If I lost you, I don't know what I'd do
Burn forever where the flame turns blue
These lines bring on an intense feeling of closeness to my loved ones

If I close my eyes....

Mine has to be:From the very first moment I saw you
That's when I knew
All the dreams I held in my heart
Had suddenly come true
Knock me over stone cold sober
Not a thing I could say or do
'Cos baby when I'm walking with you now
My eyes are so wide
Like you reached right into my head
And turned on the light inside
Turning on the light
Inside my mind hey
-Be Mine- from A New Day At Midnight

my most favourite of favourites would be:"A million miles beyond
What science understands""Stand up and let the wild wind blow
Right into your soul
Til the night is dead"and "From the hub to the limit
Through the urban hollows
Out into the poles of the extreme"

Saturday I'm running wild
And all the lights are changing red to green
Moving through the crowd I'm pushing
Chemicals all rushing through my bloodstream Babylon

what about "of all the times I've tasted love...never knew quite what I had... little darling if you hear me now... never needed you so bad.. spinning round inside my had....
SAIL AWAY WITH ME HONEY
i put my hart in your hands....
sail away with me honey...
now... now... now..."
the rest of the favourites have also been mentioned before...

If I close my eyes....

"And as we make our vow, let us remember how,
there's nothing good that lasts forever?"Don't you all have someone to think of playing that tune? Made me cry hearing it live "The word's goodbye but I can't say it"so true.....

See you on the other sideHoney now if I'm honest
I still don't know what love is

" You're so far away
16 hours on a motorway
16 hours on a motorway
16 hours on a motorway
Stand before the ocean spray
Let it all disappear
Is this real ?
Are You here ?
So far away."Ad lib on the end of a live version of
" Nightblindness"You just get swept along with the song. His voice
is so good. Amazing.Dave

'please forgive me if i act a little strange for i know not what i do. feels like lightning running through my veins everytime i look at you.'but also because i live in the country...
'on winter trees the fruit of rain is hanging trembling in teh branches like a thousand diamond buds'
