Favorite Stevie Line

[The Tower]

"But never have I been a blue, calm sea- I have always been a storm..."

and

"Well, the people- they loved her- but still they're the most cruel..."

Very true, powerful statements.

[Serrart]

Besides all those already mentioned:

"Venus doesn't glitter when she stands next to you, when you're waltzing through stardom, you miss what you lose"

"And the sands of time like shattered glass go past her..."

"They wanted images when images weren't spoken"

"What I saw on this journey, I saw history go down, I cannot pretend that the heartache falls away"

"They go into the seas that have no shores, haunted by that same closed door"

And many others more...

"And to those that I love track a ghost through a fog like a charmed hour and a haunted song and the Angel...of my dreams, angel, of my dreams."

Not to be undone by, "I still look up, when you walk in the room, I've the same wide eyes...now they tell the story."

There is so much to unpack in those two lines, it's like her whole Fleetwood Mac experience up to that point in two lyrics!

[AliceLover]

"She used to know who she was"
"Well its a hardless challenge, pick your path and then you pray"
"Still see your bright eyes, bright eyes(poor robin)"
"One set of doors was a color of honey"
"Look in my eyes, touch my face, baby is there anyone in this whole wide world that could ever replace me'

You're eyes say yes, but you don't say yes...

No I haven't felt this way i feel...since many a year ago...but in those years half a lifetimes past

Well it's, hard to be civil, and its real hard to be niiiice.

No one looked, I walked by, just an invitation woulda been just fine...

Looking up and the sky's on fiya they'll be nothin left of us, to discovah.

[diamondsnake]

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.

[Bella Figura]

"sometime she talks to him, sometimes when she's only dreaming, then when she wakes up, somehow she still believes him"

"the spirits are ruthless with the paths they choose"

they may not be her most poetic but they have meaning for me

but trying to choose one or two is almost impossible...

oops I totally forgot "I'm not a child anymore, I'm tall enough to reach for the stars" Beautiful Child always make me weep by that part of the song...

[ShamHy89]

"And not all the prayers in the world could save us..."

That's probably my favorite. I crank up the volume whenever Storms ends just to hear that line.

Shamus

[DeadliestPoison]

"Love is a word that some entertain, and if you find it... you have won the game." Yay, Red Rocks. <333

Also? "Sometimes I don't say enough/ I play too hard, and still I'm not tough enough."

I have mad RAL love.

[mondaymornin1]

"Sometimes even I am allowed to fall."

and

"One man walked away from me...first he took my hand."

and

"Well I waited all my life for you, sweet girl" --I sang this one to my daughter--she was born in '97 What a great lullabye!

[celestenadia]

The bulk of Stevie's writing is pretty darn poetic & heavy. It's SO hard to pick just one...
I'll start from the "beginning" just to make it easier on myself.
"Dreams unwind
Love's a state of mind."

I'm Not Make Believe

[jbrownsjr]

I've been a waiting
I'm thru waiting for you

[Merf]

hold on, the night is coming
and the starling flew for days
i stay home at night
all the time
i'd go anywhere anywhere
anywhere ask me and i'll be there
