Ryan Adams Quotes

Oh, my God, I miss those things

I should've died a hundred thousand times,
Teetering stoned off the side of a building.
Nobody loved me and nobody even tried
You can't hang on to something that won't stop moving.
Singing and dancing to them nighttime songs.

The night plays games

It’s like—I don’t know, sometimes it’s like chasing a pretty girl on the beach. And things I never thought I could do…I can do.

Bad nights lead to better days

When you get the time
Sit down and write me a letter
When you're feeling better
Drop me a line<p>I wanna know how it all works out
I had a feeling we were fading out
I didn't know that people faded out
That people faded out so fast
I wanna show you all the things I got inside But you know those parts of me died
Just like us they faded out
They faded out so fast
When there was love enough left to fix it But there it is

They carved your name into a stone and then they put it in the ground.
I run my fingers through the grooves when no one's around,
Drink till I'm sick and I talk to myself in the dog days of the summer.
Then I feel you coming but I don't know how...

Trying to find a peaceful song

All the sweetest winds they blow across the south

Put your troubles behind you and go on to bed

Sleep now and your angels will come, dear

One night at the diner over eggs,
Over easy she showed me the length of her legs,
But that gold plated cross on her neck, it was real
And you don't get that kind of money from pushing a meal.

You didn't see us, nothing can free us

Daylight comes and exposes

Well we can't be strong
