“A love struck Romeo, sings a street-suss serenade;
Laying everybody low, with a love song that he made.
Finds a convenient street light, steps out of the shade
'N' says something like, "You and me babe, how about it?"”

“The streets made me, and the streets stink, but I love them, for I was born in them out of flesh and I was born in them out of spirit.”

“Love is a one-way street. Love, like respect isn't something you get; it's something you give”

“I like singing in the street, so if you saw a little Indian kid walking on the street singing loudly, that was probably me.”

“I walk along the city streets you used to walk along with me,
And every step I take recalls how much in love we used to be.
Oh, how can I forget you?
When there is always something there to remind me”

“I'm becoming
the street.
Who are you in love with?
me?
Straight against the light I cross.”

“At this point, a spaceship could land on Main Street and Elvis could saunter out singing "Love Me Tender," and I wouldn't be surprised”

“When I was sixteen, I made the discovery -- love. All at once and much, much too completely. It was like you suddenly turned a blinding light on something that had always been half in shadow, that's how it struck the world for me.”

“I've had enough of danger
And people on the streets
I'm looking out for angels
Just trying to find some peace Now I think it's time
That you let me know
So if you love me
Say you love me
But if you don't just let me go…”

“If I had to sum up what he did to me, I’d say it was this: he made me sing along to all the bad songs on the radio. Both when he loved me and when he didn't.”
