Parting is all we know of heaven and all we need to know of hell.

- Emily Dickinson

They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot
With a pink hotel, a boutique
And a swinging hot spot
Don't it always seem to go
That you don't know what you've got
Till its gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot.

- Joni Mitchell

Have you forgotten what we were like then
When we were still first rate
And the day came fat with an apple in its mouth

It's no use worrying about Time
But we did have a few tricks up our sleeves
And turned some sharp corners

The whole pasture looked like our meal
We didn't need speedometers
We could manage cocktails out of ice and water

I wouldn't want to be faster
Or greener than now if you were with me
O you were the best of all my days

- Frank O'Hara

Tom, get your plane right on time.
I know your part'll go fine.
Fly down to Mexico.
Da-n-da-da-n-da-n-da-da and here I am,
The only living boy in New York.
I get the news I need on the weather report.
I can gather all the news I need on the weather report.
Hey, I've got nothing to do today but smile.
Da-n-da-da-n-da-da-n-da-da here I am
The only living boy in New York

Half of the time we're gone but we don't know where,
And we don't know here.

Tom, get your plane right on time.
I know you've been eager to fly now.
Hey let your honesty shine, shine, shine
Da-n-da-da-n-da-da-n-da-da
Like it shines on me
The only living boy in New York,
The only living boy in New York.

- Simon & Garfunkel

If you really love me, then why are you leaving me?
I can't live thinking about this crazy thing.
- K-C & JoJo

Just to see you smile
I'd do anything that you wanted me to
When all is said and done
I'd never count the cost,
It's worth all that's lost, just to see you smile
- Tim McGraw

Love is passion, obsession, something you can't live without. Fall head over heels, find someone who you can love like crazy that will love you the same way back. How do you find them? Well, forget your head and listen to your heart...the truth is, there is no sense living your life without this.
- Meet Joe Black

I can make no apologies for following my heart
- Gavin Rossdale

Oh, kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you'll wait for me
Hold me like you'll never let me go
- "Leaving on Jet Plane"

Now is the hour when we must say goodbye. Soon you will be sailing far across the sea. While you're away, oh remember me. When you return, you'll find me waiting here.

- Bing Crosby

Please don't leave me here, don't leave me alone.

- Pink
