    Save you has some great lyrics but for the ultimate it probably would have to be the end of black.
    The Astoria??? Orgazmic!
    Verona??? it's all surmountable
    Dublin 23.08.06 "The beauty of Ireland, right there!"
    Wembley? We all believe!
    Copenhagen?? your light made us stars
    Chicago 07? And love
    What a different life
    Had I not found this love with you

    Mine is always changing, but currently it is.....

    "How I choose to feel,.... Is how I am."

    -Inside Job
    Happiness is only real when shared
  • Well what can i say, there's just so many awesome lyrics by Vedder
    One that has been in my mind for a while is 'the direction of the eye, so misleading, the defection of the soul, nauceously quick'
    Sorry 'bout the spelling
    Other lines on the top of my head:
    'I wish I was the radio song, the one that you turned up'
    'Hearts and thoughts they fade, fade away'
    'Caught a bolt of lightning, cursed the day he let it go' love that one

    Ahhh but there's so many
    I also think it's interesting how lyrics can affect you in different ways
    The ones that hit home can differ from the way Eddie sings them, or the words themselves, if you get my meaning
    Like the choruses for Dissident are sung so well it doesn't really matter what the lyrics are, whereas some lyrics are easier to relate to even if there's not as much emphasis put into them - 'Jesus greets me, looks just like me...'
    I guess it all depends on the context of the song and how Ed wants to get his message across, whether it's through amazing singing or through inspired lyrics

    Some of my favorites.....

    Stunned by my own reflection
    It's looking back, sees me too clearly
    And I swore I'd never go there again
    Not unlike a friend that politely drags you down

    If I was lost at sea. That harpoon boat in front of me. It's the whale I'd like to be. (man do I love that song)

    Sometimes realize, I could only be as good as you'll let me
    Are you woman enough to be my man?
    Bandaged hand in hand

    Drowned you are, you are, you are a furry thing
    And everything is you
    Me you, you me, it's all related
    What's a boy to do?
    Just be darling and I will be too
    Faithful to you
    "Tanqueray and Tab, and keep 'em comin'."

    Just joined the site, been a Pearl Jam for years...

    I have to agree the best lyric has to be

    "I know someday you'll have a beautiful life, I know you'll be a star, in somebody else's sky...but Why can't that be mine.."

    So moving...

    mine is constantly changing indeed...

    ''I wish I was the verb to trust and never let you down''

    or...

    ''I know I was born and I know that I'll die.
    The in between is mine.''

    or...

    'I'll wait up in the dark...for you to speak to me''

    but it's definitelly the way of how he sings it all... :)

    GREAT LYRICS - FANTASTIC SONG!!

    I also love ...

    hesitate when i feel i may do harm to her
    wash it off cuz this feeling we can share
    and i know she's reached my heart, in thin air

    I love this song coz PJ dont do that many love songs but when they do, its really touching....... and i want it at my wedding...

    There are a couple of lyrics that are always on my mind:

    "I know I was born and I know that I'll die / The in between is mine"

    "I know someday you'll have a beautiful life / I know you'll be a star, in somebody else's sky / But why can't it be mine"

    "And he still gives his love / He just gives it away..."

    Pearl Jam's songs are full of poetry, are filled w/ philosophical questions... and that's probably why I love them.
  • and full of life, real life.

    You don't have to stray
    Though oceans away
    Waves roll in my thoughts

    and
    Come the morning and I could swear you're next to me and It's ok - I still tear up at that line
    and
    I want to go but I don't want to go alone
    With you I could never be alone

    got to be the following:

    push me pull me:
    I had a false belief
    I thought I came here to stay
    We're all just visiting
    All just breaking like waves
    The oceans made me, but who came up with love
    Push me, pull me, push me, or pull me out
    Push me, pull me, or pull me out

    present tense:
    have you ideas on how this life ends
    checked your hands and studied the lines
    have you the belief that the road ahead ascends off into the light

    pilate:
    Stunned by my own reflection
    It's looking back, sees me too clearly
    And I swore I'd never go there again

    man of the hour:
    Now the man of the hour is taking his final bow
    As the curtain comes down
    I feel that this is just g’bye for now

    thank god for pearl jam

    I love "We were but stones. your light made us stars" from Light Years.

    I also love "thinking if he can't sleep, how will he ever dream?" frm Unemployable.

    These two both grabbed me straight away but there are soooo many other awesome ones.

    I wish I was a Sailor, with someone who waited for me

    I wish I was as fortunate, as fortunate as me

    I wish I was a messenger,and all the news was good

    I wish I was the full moon shining, off a cameros hood.

    Not sure I have spelt Camero correctly because I am English and I am not at all sure.Feel free to let me know if I have made an arse of the spelling!

    Off the top of my head...

    I used to try and kill love, it was the highest sin

    Hail, hail the lucky ones, I refer to those in love

    i changed by not changing at all(elderly woman)

    i know someday you'll have a beautiful life,
    i know you'll be the sun
    in somebody else's sky, but why
    why, why can't it be, why can't it be mine...(black_i can't seperate one lyric from another in this part)

    makes more sense to live in the present tense.(present tense)

    speaking as a child of the 90's

    I live by these words:

    "I will make it through one more day ..in hell" / indiff.
    and

    "What you fear the most will meet you half way" /Crazy Mary

    but anyways..which of their songs doesn't have great lyrics..or at least a verse!!
