Broken heart1 quote
So take a good look at my face.
You'll see my smile looks out of place.
If you look closer, it's easy to trace
The tracks of my tears. — The Miracles · 1965Killing time1 quote
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay,
Watchin' the tide roll away,
Ooh, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay,
Wastin' time. — Otis Redding · 1968Nature of love1 quote
Cause baby there ain't no mountain high enough
Ain't no valley low enough
Ain't no river wide enough

What you want baby, I got it
What you need, do you know I got it?
All I'm askin' is for a little respect when you come home. — Otis Redding · 1965
