"she had eyes that used to trust you like no eyes you never knew"

I also really like the line about picture windows.
Best Lind lyric - ooh that's a tough one.

I have always been a lover primarily of great melodies rather than great lyrics, but in bob Lind's songs you get both. For lyrics I still think Elusive Butterfly is hard to beat:
You might have seen me running
through the long-abandoned ruins of the dreams you left behind
It doesn't get any better than that.

What about "He kicked my ass on the saw-dust floor..."?
"Some may call it wander-lust, some may call it crazy.
I don't call it anything - I Just Let It Take Me."

"I Was Looking For You" - from Live at Luna Star cd...

I don't call it anything - I Just Let It Take Me."
