I forgot that love existed, troubled in my mind. Heartache after heartache, worried all the time. I forgot that love existed Then I saw the light Everyone around me make everything alright.

More quotes by Van Morrison
I like to see people reaching back for the roots and for the reason why. Not intellectually, but just for the gut feeling of what it's all about.
Van Morrison
I was all caught up with identifying with certain things. They just weren't very stimulating things.
Van Morrison
What I like is natural music. It's like I was born with a gift to do something naturally, which I have no choice but to followup on.
Van Morrison
I haven't really heard much that's impressed me the way it was when I first heard Ray Charles or somebody like that. That was really an impression.
Van Morrison
And I shall watch the ferry boats, and they'll get high, on a bluer ocean against tomorrow's sky. and i will never grow so old again, and i will walk and talk, in gardens all wet with rain.
Van Morrison

Van Morrison
It was like I had evolved to a certain stage where I was stuck in this songwriter bag as an image. But basically at heart, I'm a rocker. And I still am. But I was caught up in the singer/songwriter bag and I wasn't really enjoying it.
Van Morrison
The Eternal Kansas City song came from a dream sequence. It was actually kind of weird. I had this dream about a Kansas City type of thing while I was up at Stevie Winwood's place near Cheltenham, in Britain. I went into this small town and I was walking along and this dream thing was still in my head.
Van Morrison
Meet them halfway with love, peace, and persuasion, and expect them to rise for the occasion.
Van Morrison
I'm still basically the same as I always was. I still listen to the same people. That's where I'm coming from.
Van Morrison
That's what it is-it's jazz. It's just jazz. That's what the whole thing is about to me. It's about what's happening right now in this context. This conversation is jazz to a certain extent. It's improvisation. What appeals to me about music is the improvization. That's what I don't like about the media-they're not living it.
Van Morrison
I think I opened up an area with Astral Weeks that hit a lot of peoples' nerves. But you can't really say that they're my favorite songs.
Van Morrison
I was just getting tired of the image bullshit...that man of mystery trip and what have you. What's that all about?
Van Morrison
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea They thought great thoughts about liberty Poets wrote down words that did fit Writers wrote books Thinkers thought about it.
Van Morrison
Enlightenment, don't know what it is. It's up to you, the way you think.
Van Morrison
There's quite a few people getting into that - new acts coming along that are using a lot of stuff that happened in the 50s and 60s. They're completely ignoring the 70s which is kind of a turn on because to me nothing has really gone down in the 70s.
Van Morrison
The fog of illusion, the fog of confusion is hanging all over the world.
Van Morrison
