The reason I play music is to touch people - for selfish reasons, as well. It feels good to make someone else feel something, whether it's a kiss, a painting, good idea or it's a song.

More quotes by Dave Matthews
We spend a lot of time bickering at great cost, and very little time actually coming up with solutions. And I think we misuse our ambition for our own gains and rarely for the betterment of ourselves, and people around us and our environment. And I think that's sort of pathetic and desperate.
Dave Matthews
I like to think I'm a night person, because that's my job, but now I'm a father of three. I'm trying to become more of a morning person. I don't know if it will last. I have two choices, right? Either I'm bitter about getting up early, or I start drinking wine earlier and get to bed.
Dave Matthews
I'll lean on you and you lean on me and we'll be okay.
Dave Matthews
When I step into the light My arms are open wide When I step into the light My eyes searching wildly
Dave Matthews
Because one of the properties of music is to entertain and to, I don't mean this lightly, distract us from the things that pull us down. Music should be not only a source for political ideas but also a source of hope.
Dave Matthews
Everything good needs replacing
Dave Matthews
What I want is what I've not got, but what I need is all around me.
Dave Matthews
I'm not going to change my ways just to please you, or appease you.
Dave Matthews
She runs up into the light surprised Her arms are opened Her mind's eye is Seeing things from a better side than most can dream
Dave Matthews
Sometimes it's nice to be able to reflect on the music itself and then write lyrics that I feel anyone can relate to. It's not my dreaming tree that is dead. The feeling of a loss of hope is universal. There are moments that we've all felt a little bit of it, so I don't think it is something that is too hard to identify with.
Dave Matthews
I don't understand at best, I cannot speak for all the rest. But you may find a lifetime's passed you by. Every dog has its day, every day has its way Of being forgotten.
Dave Matthews
You know she's going to leave my broken heart behind her...
Dave Matthews
Are you looking for answers, to questions under the stars? If along the way you are growing weary, You can rest with me until a brighter day It's okay
Dave Matthews
I find sometimes it's easy to be myself, sometimes I find it's better to be somebody else.
Dave Matthews
Always walk where you like your steps.
Dave Matthews
Why won't you run in the rain and play, let the tears splash all over you?
Dave Matthews
When I don't say a word and you know exactly what I mean.
Dave Matthews
So often we talk about saving the planet, but what we really mean is to save the planet the way it is, so we can live here. So that is can sustain us.
Dave Matthews
Just knowing that the world is round Here I'm dancing on the ground Am I right side up or upside down? Is this real or am I dreaming?
Dave Matthews
I feel that I have worked my whole life to get to the point where I should have a good understanding of women.
