Carly Simon
I had some dreams, they were clouds in my coffee.
Carly Simon
Life is a dream even in its most painful moments, it's a dream that we can dance to.
Carly Simon
As a singer I tried on all these hats, these voices, these clothes, and eventually out came me.
Carly Simon
I haven't got time for the pain.
Carly Simon
The models for me were more the folk-rock singers of the '60s and '70s.
