“I am driving up '85 in the
Kind of morning that lasts all afternoon,
Just stuck inside the gloom.
4 more exits to my apartment but
I am tempted to keep the car in drive
And leave it all behind.Because I wonder sometimes
About the outcome
Of a still verdictless life.”

John Mayer

Why Georgia
Song lyrics, Room for Squares (2001)

“It wasn’t as direct as me saying “I now make the choice to bring the paparazzi into my life.” I really said, “I now make the choice to sleep with Jessica Simpson.” That was stronger than my desire to stay out of the paparazzi’s eye.”

On deciding to date Jessica Simpson (February 10, 2010), "John Mayer: Playboy Interview" http://www.playboy.com/articles/john-mayer-playboy-interview/index.html?page=1 Playboy. Retrieved February 10, 2010.

“If I had done things differently, I'd probably have the paparazzi waiting around for me. At the studio where I've been recording, Jessica Simpson is working there, too. The paparazzi are outside waiting for her to come out. That's the result of her decisions. My decisions have led me to the point that when I walk out in front of the paparazzi, I'm considered a waste of film.”

“Songs can be Trojan horses, taking charged ideas and sneaking past the ego's defenses and into the open mind.”

John Mayer

Esquire magazine (November 1, 2004)

“Something about the way your hair falls in your face
I love the shape you take when crawling towards the pillowcase
You tell me where to go and
Though I might leave to find it,
I'll never let your head hit the bed
Without my hand behind it.And if you want love,
We'll make it.
Swim in a deep sea
Of blankets.
Take all your big plans
And break them,
This is bound to be a while.”

John Mayer

Your Body Is a Wonderland
Song lyrics, Room for Squares (2001)

“Lightning strikes
Inside my chest to keep me up at night.
Dream of ways
To make you understand my pain.”

John Mayer

Heartbreak Warfare
Song lyrics, Battle Studies (2009)

“Have no fear for giving in,
Have no fear for giving over.
You'd better know that in the end
It's better to say too much
Than never say what you need to say again.Even if your hands are shaking
And your faith is broken,
Even as the eyes are closing,
Do it with a heart wide open.”

John Mayer

Say
Song lyrics, From the film The Bucket List (2007)

“I find myself in situations that I know would be unbelievable pictures and I have to gauge, Is this worth taking the camera out? Am I gonna lose the moment? Am I gonna get a dirty look from Sting?”

“"Welcome to the real world", she said to me
Condescendingly.
Take a seat,
Take your life
Plot it out in black and white.
Well I never lived the dreams of the prom kings
And the drama queens.
I'd like to think the best of me
Is still hiding
Up my sleeve.They love to tell you:
Stay inside the lines,
But something's better
On the other side.”

John Mayer

“You be the DJ, I'll be the driver,
You put your feet up in the getaway car.
I'm flying fast like a, a wanted man.
I want you, baby, like you can't understand.Oh, love on the weekend,
Love on the weekend.
We found a message in a bottle we were drinking.”

“I was smart enough to know it would probably make me a salable item for the paparazzi. I knew I’d have to move to a home that had a gate. But that pearl of possibility that lives in your heart when you meet somebody you want to know more about has such a different molecular density than everything else that you have to pursue it.”

“The first thing I said was a question: Does this really come from the family? I think that was essential to me sort of processing the honor. And when I found out that, in fact, it had, it took me about 48 hours to sort of strike the balance in how I was going to approach being -- you know, being invited to this unbelievable event without actually having the proximity to Michael Jackson personally. I'd never met him.”
