Favorite one-line in a song

If, when I say I may fade like a sigh if I stay,
You minimize my movement anyway,
I must persuade you another way.

or

Just remember I will always love you,
Even as I tear your fucking throat away.
But it will end no other way.

Unfortunately I don't have one particular one... but here are my top three:

"What's your name, who's your daddy, is he rich like me" Time of the Season = The Zombies
"Like a sinner before the gates of heaven I'll come crawling on back to you" - Bat out of Hell = Meatloaf
"My love is in league with the freeway
Its passion will ride, as the cities fly by
And the tail-lights dissolve, in the coming of night" Big Log = Robert Plant
 
When this world ends
I will stop in my tracks and ask myself
What have I done
with my life?

-Winds of Plague, Anthems of Apocalypse
 
you and me are a disease
and the germs are spreading
use me like listerene
keeping your breath fresh

- Lovage, Book of The Month
 
they dont know nothin but the killa got away

But for now we are young let us lay in the sun and count every beautiful thing we can see

Neutral Milk Hotel, In the Aeroplane Over the Sea

but you could probably pick pretty much any one line in that song
 
"Im going to go to sleep, and let this wash all over me."

Go To Sleep
Radiohead
 
"The body's just a vehicle
Transporting the soul
It's what's inside the people
Is beauty to behold"

"The body's just a vehicle
Transporting the soul
It's what's inside the people
Is beauty to behold"

Jr. Gong

beautiful lyrics in the whole tune....

"Did you know you can't go to Zion and where Jheri Curls? Can't tell the boys from the girls."
