Sometimes Quotes
-
Sometimes I think that love is one big fairy tale. I wonder if people who say they are in love, if – really – they’ve just talked themselves into it.

Maybe because it doesn’t happen to me, I don’t want to think it happens to anyone else.

Every song falls short of the glory of what a song could be. That's why the urge is there to start again and yet again. Often it's the fault of rhyme.

Sometimes it was a better thing, but the thing I meant to say went unsaid. So there's an opening for another song.
