John Mayer quotes - page 2
The first thing I said was a question: Does this really come from the family? I think that was essential to me sort of processing the honor. And when I found out that, in fact, it had, it took me about 48 hours to sort of strike the balance in how I was going to approach being -- you know, being invited to this unbelievable event without actually having the proximity to Michael Jackson personally. I'd never met him.
John Mayer
Did you know that you could be wrong
And swear you're right?
Some people been known to do it
All their lives.
But you find yourself alone
Just like you found yourself before.
Like I found myself in pieces
On the hotel floor.
Hard times help me see.I'm a good man with a good heart;
Had a tough time, got a rough start.
But I finally learned to let it go,
Now I'm right here, and I'm right now.
And I'm hoping, knowing somehow
That my shadow days are over.
My shadow days are over now.
John Mayer
I never worked with T. I. Here's the back story to that Wikipedia nugget: I was a guest on TRL and happened to get my hands on the list of goofy, un Andrew-Miller-like questions I was going to be asked before I walked on set. One of the questions was "Who do you like more, T. I. or [I forgot the other southern rap artist]?" So I snuck to the bathroom and searched "T. I." on my Blackberry. I memorized as much information as I could and then announced that we were working together.
John Mayer
I know a girl;
She puts the color inside of my world.
But she's just like a maze
Where all of the walls all continually change.
And I've done all I can
To stand on her steps with my heart in my hands.
Now I'm starting to see
Maybe it's got nothing to do with me.Fathers, be good to your daughters,
Daughters will love like you do.
Girls become lovers who turn into mothers,
So mothers, be good to your daughters too.
John Mayer
