Some of my favorite songlines from "Far Side of the World":

So whatever thrills you, Anything you love to do, Just say someday I will

With my history of wrecks I think It's time to check the crab trap of life once more

When you stop and think about, Life is still just high school, You make the same mistakes you did when you were young

I still believe in rock 'n' roll, It pays my bills and soothes my soul

What are your favorite song lines from the new album?

Sometimes more than others, You see who and what and where you are

Back at home, it's afternoon, Six thousand miles away.
I will still be there when I get through attending this soiree

One lucky man with my feet in the sand
Carry on as you know they would want you to do. ~~JB, dedication to Tim Russert

Take your time
Find your passion
Life goes on until it ends
Don’t stop living
Until then

There are jobs and chores and questions
And plates I need to twirl,
But tonight I'll take my chances,
On the Far Side of the World

The High Tech World is full of bright shiny things we think that we really require.

Favorite is the same as yours.
Whether it's big or small, if you have a passion at all, just say Someday I Will.

I see a flying boat
I get a lump in my throat
and I say Someday I Will.

"You've only got two options - having fun or freaking out" -ain't that true!

"Don't need to know who
May help you make it come true
Just say someday I will"

These are good ones, but to tell you all the truth, I love the whole d*mn album, all of the songlines are very good.

"So what ever thrills you
Anything you love to do
Just say someday I will"

And here's an odd thing...
As I clicked on this post the song FSOTW was playing on RM and had JUST gotten to the "songlines" line! :eek:

Sunset framed by lightning bolts
Burns a lasting memory
And a string of tiny, twinklin lights
Adorn the sausage tree

While the embers from the log fire
They flicker, fly and twirl
Then drift off towards the cosmos
From the far side of the world

One lucky man
With my feet in the sand
Tonight I Just Need My Guitar

I want music in my music
I want chicken in my soup
While the embers from the logfire
They flicker, fly and twirl
Then drift off towards the cosmos
From the Far Side Of The World

Now I could stay another day or two
But what's the use of stalling
Deep in the winter even holdout leaves
start fallin' (Savannah Fare You Well)

uuuhhh... Jon ... dream on, fella.
That's "Girls MEET boys."

My theory is that the poetry of the line
"Sleeping bags and battle flags
Are coiled and furled"
was the starting point for the song FSOTW.
