I find one line particularly powerful, and it's been used in a couple famous songs.
Jenny Lou Carson (1944), made popular by Willie Nelson (1966)
I'd trade all of my tomorrows for just one yesterday For what good is life without the one you love I'd trade all of my tomorrows, they're worthless anyway If my arms can't hold the one I am dreaming of
Just an empty world is all I have before me I'd give anything if you were with me now I'd trade all of my tomorrows for just one yesterday I don't want to live without you anyhow
Kris Kristofferson Me and Bobby McGee (1969)
And I'd trade all of my tomorrows For one single yesterday Holdin' Bobby's body next to mine Freedom's just another word for nothin' left to lose Nothin' left is all that Bobby left me.
