More quotes by Dave Matthews
I use God in my songs a lot but I don't have a relationship. I don't know what that means.
Dave Matthews
Oh look at how she listens She says nothing of what she thinks She just goes stumbling through her memories Staring out on to Grey Street
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
I see you young and soft oh little baby Little feet, little hands, little baby One year of crying and the words creep up inside Creep into your mind So much to say
Dave Matthews
If at all God's gaze falls upon us all it's with a mischievous grin, look at him.
Dave Matthews
Always walk where you like your steps.
Dave Matthews
The melodies are always the most important part to me. I am pulled more to the groove than the chord progression. After you find the groove, you find the most simple chord progressions and then sit inside that groove.
Dave Matthews
I swear by now I'm playing time against my troubles I'm coming slow but speeding
Dave Matthews
I fear that our true motivation is about oil and our own flailing economy about the failure to destroy Al Qaeda and about revenge.
Dave Matthews
Move into kiss those sweet sugar lips, baby looks just like love.
Dave Matthews
I'm a fairly tormented artist, and I'm less willing to indulge myself in self-pity, outside of songwriting.
Dave Matthews
I don't think socialism, and I don't think warmness and respect are necessarily bad words.
Dave Matthews
I'll lean on you and you lean on me and we'll be okay.
Dave Matthews
How we can stay faithful to the people that have supported us from the beginning is a thought in my mind. I always want to keep that part of it alive.
Dave Matthews
Digging a ditch where madness gives a bit Digging a ditch where silence lives Digging a ditch for when I'm old Digging this ditch my story's told Where all these troubles weigh down on me will rise ..... Where all these questions spinning round my head will die
Dave Matthews
When I look at how fortunate I've been, being a musician... my response to being overpaid is that I should pay it back to my community in some way.
Dave Matthews
The problem is someone will try to convince you That they know the answer no matter the question Be wary of those who believe in a neat little world 'Cause it's just ..... crazy - you know that it is
Dave Matthews
I want to figure out a way to not be stupid with money, then make a whole bunch of it, then I want to move to Outer Mongolia. I want to milk a yak. Maybe I'll just settle for a cow.
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 hope that just what I sing about and how I relate to my audience is as much of a political statement as I need to make.
Dave Matthews
