Favorite Stevie lyrics

[SmileAtYou]

"Dreams unwind... love's a state of mind."

"In the eye of a storm, when all the light is gone, there is lightning"

"Here I go again, I see some crystal visions, I keep my visions to myself."

"Maybe you thought that I'd never change, but you know I'm changing... you're wrong... and it's been like dying. No love's that hard to find, and I'm tired of trying."

"Take on the situation but no the torment. You know it's not as bad as it seems."

[wheart]

"something in my heart died last night, just one more chip off an already broken heart"

"if you tell me one more time come on baby, take it easy, well you won't see me ever again"

"and I see you doing what I try to do for me, with the words from a poet, and a voice from a choir, and a melody"

[newyawka]

Life gave me you, yeah
The change was made
There's no beginning over
You are not happy, but what is love?
Hate gave you me for a lover

[momst1]

Real love affairs are heavy spells
For a woman and a man.

[DWIG]

Love is a word that some entertain.....when you find it .......you have won the game

I have never been a blue calm sea....i have always been a storm

I sing for the things that money can't buy

We are adapting to your silence..... i can live here without you...at least i'm learning...but, i cannot live without your song




just a few of the absolute Gems..i'm sure i'll think of some more!

DAVE

[Msgypsy1959]

In a flood of tears
That no one really ever heard fall at all ...

And a memory is all
that is left for you now
You see your gypsy...

It was easy to say
I believed in you everyday
If not for me
Then do it for the world...

She is like a cat in the dark
And then she is the darkness
She rules her life like a fine skylark
And when the sky is starless ..

Never did I mean to Imprison you
Here in my garden
Like I am imprisoned
All the love I have for your life
All the love I have for your life
Turn around ..

So I'll begin not to love you...
Turn around, you'll see me runnin'
I'll say I loved you years ago...
And tell myself you never loved me....No......

So I close my eyes softly
Til I become that part of the wind
That we all long for sometime....

In my distress...well I wanted someone to blame me
In my devastation...I wanted so to change
In my way...disaster was the only thing that I could depend on...


There are way to many.I could go on and on. This reply would be too long

[Liza]

So many lyrics, so many it's hard to decide, they are all wonderful.



And sometimes...when they ask her about the men in her life... she says, 'well, they are poets...and yet they are priests of nothing... aah, but they are legends.' And I thought that there was a... connection.

[Sanne2]

What you did not need was a woman
Who was stronger
You needed someone to depend on you
I could not be her
I did not want to
My first mistake was to smile at you
Smile at you

Go on save yourself
Leave the key here
You love someone else
I shouldn't be here
Don't ask me why
You know the answer
If she's so willing, little one
There was no chance there

and:
Timeless is the creature who is wise
And timeless is the prisoner in disguise

[autumnrose]

I loved looking through the lyrics and saying "Oh yeah I remember that" so Ty all who helped. I was also thinking about the Lyrics from "If I where you"

I know what you're dreaming when you sleep
You have secrets I will always keep
And in every morning when we arise
I see my reflection in your eyes

Every boy must learn to be a man
Maybe I can help you, yes I can

[Travis]

“Take on the situation but not the torment, now you know it’s not as bad as it seems” THINK ABOUT IT

“If it's me that's driving you to this madness
Then there's one thing that I'd like to say
Take a look at your life and your lovers
Nothing ever changes” NOTHING EVER CHANGES

“Nobody's right baby all the time
And a fool never knows what he's leaving behind
So take some time to know the real story
Cause a soul that's true is your ride to glory” SISTER HONEY

“When I see you again,
As I always do
It appears to me that
Destiny rules
And the spirits are ruthless with the paths they choose
It's not being together,
It's just following the rules
No one's a fool...” DESTINY RULES

I agree! I think this is a really great thread...

It's awesome to see which lyrics are meaningful to other Stevie fans. Reading through all these passages reminds me what a great lyricist and poet Stevie is... her words are incredibly empowering!

[darla]

There's not a fire burning just a sole crying.....

[galestreet]

I have been reading the different lyrics people have shared. There are so many beautiful ones by Ms. Nicks, it's very soothing to read and to hear in the heart.
I've always loved Storms and Fireflies.

To be the last to leave, the last to be gone,
stolen from the ones who hung on to it.

and

Every night that goes between I feel a little less
As you slowly go away from me
This is only another test

[Tellurium]

Fantastic choices all!

But I suppose with Stevie it's hard to go wrong.

"And the days go by like a strand in the wind.
In the web that is my own, I begin again."

"They go into the sea that has no shore
Haunted by that same closed door
Looking up at skies on fire
Leaving nothing left of us
To discover."

"THin and wavering on a wind blown night
Who's honour, who's anger
Cold and quivering
As was the wind blown night
Into which she'd fallen"

I could go on for a while...

[michelej1]

When love starts out in the darkness,
It doesn't do well in the light.
Affairs of the heart
That start out in the dark
Usually stay with the night.
