Quote

I found you a thousand times I guess you done the same But then we lose each other It's like a children's game As I find you here again A thought runs through my mind Our love is like a circle Let's go 'round one more time.

When in doubt, do something.
Harry Chapin
Image
Oh all the times I've listened, and all the times I've heard All the melodies I'm missing, and all the magic words, And all those potent voices, and the choices we had then, How I'd love to find we had that kind of choice again.
Harry Chapin
Image
I finally like myself, at last I like myself.
Harry Chapin
Image
If we say that no one's out there And we say we're goin' nowhere And we avoid the question Is this all that it means?
Harry Chapin
Image
If a man tried to take his time on earth and prove before he died, what one man's life could be worth, well I wonder what would happen to this world?
Harry Chapin
Image
You know I need a dream Like I need my breath We need to take the life Before we get the death You know I need your love Like I need the light Yes I need the chance Can it be tonight?
Harry Chapin
Image
And I know you're frightened By my laughter But you're not afraid To hold my pain You see I'm never sure Just what you're after, Babe But it seems you only love me When it rains. How come you only love me when it rains?
Harry Chapin

I'd rather make a mistake than do nothing.
Harry Chapin

Reality is only just a word.
Harry Chapin
Image
She sings the songs without words Songs that sailors, and blind men, and beggars have heard She knows more of love than the poets can say And her eyes are for something that won't go away.
Harry Chapin
Image
And I dream that something's coming And it's not just in the wind It's more than just tomorrow It's more than where we've been It offers me a promise It's telling me, begin!
Harry Chapin
Image
I come fresh from the street, fast on my feet, kind a lean and lazy not much meat on my bones, and a whole lot alone, and more than a little bit crazy. The old six string was all I had to keep my belly still, and for each full hour lesson I gave I got a crisp ten dollar bill.
Harry Chapin
Image
He was dancing to some music No one else had ever heard He'd speak in unknown languages She would translate every word And then when the world was laughing At his castles in the sky She'd hold him in her body Till he once again could fly.
Harry Chapin
Image
No straight lines make up my life And all my roads have bends There's no clear-cut beginnings And so far no dead-ends.
Harry Chapin
Image
And while blood's the only language that your deaf old ears can hear And still you will not answer with that message coming clear Does it mean there's no more ripples in your tired old glory stream And the buzzards own the carcass of your dream?
Harry Chapin
Image
And the wind will whip your tousled hair, The sun, the rain, the sweet despair, Great tales of love and strife. And somewhere on your path to glory You will write your story of a life.
Harry Chapin
Image
Strum your guitar sing it kid Just write about your feelings not the things you never did Inexperience, it once had cursed me But your youth is no handicap it's what makes you thirsty
Harry Chapin
Image
You see, I have no real complaints of how you've left your past behind I guess what gets me worried is you've erased him from your mind.
Harry Chapin
Image
I never really drove a cab, but I do have a hack license in case of emergencies - like no money.

Be involved with the people with the live hearts, the live eyes, who are committed to something.
