Dave Matthews Band Quotes:
Isn't it strange how we move out lives for another day? Like skipping a beat, what if a great wave should wash us all away?
Dave Matthews

"some people drink, and some don't; some people like to smoke a bowl, and some don't. Some people do and some people don't but it's ok 'cause it was ment to be that way."
Dave Matthews

I mean to tell you all the things I've been thinking deep inside..My friend..With each moment the more I love you...

"A guy and a girl can be just friends, but at one point or another, they will fall for each other...Maybe temporarily, maybe at the wrong time, maybe too late, or maybe forever"

"See you and me have a better time than most can dream of, better than the best, so we can pull on through, whatever tears at us, whatever holds us down, and if nothing can be done, we'll make the best of what's around."

"You're the love of my life and the breath in my prayers. Take my hand and lead me there.. what I need is you here. I can't forget the taste of your mouth from your lips all the heavens pour out. I can't forget when we are one. With you alone I am free."
