From "City of Angels":

"I've been 'the other woman' since my puberty began,
I crashed the junior prom
And met the only married man."

From "Assassins":

"There's another national anthem, folks,
For those who never win,
For the suckers, for the pikers,
For the ones who might've been."

From "Spitfire Grill":

"When you look out from your front porch and see the sun go down,
Another night has fallen on the street of your hometown.
And all at once you'll understand that you are here to stay,
With roots so deep into the earth they'll never float away..."

There are so many I love, but I can only think of those right now. :)

"I wasn't looking, look what I found!"

from "I Turned The Corner", Thoroughly Modern Millie.

Mine is from RENT

"The heart may freeze or it can burn
The pain will ease if I can learn
There is no future, there is no past,
I live this moment as the last.
There's only us, there's only this
Forget regret, or life is yours to miss
No other road, no other way, no day but today...
There's only yes, only tonight
We must let go to know what's right
No other course, no other way, No day but today.
I can't control my destiny
I trust my soul, my only goal is just to be
There's only now, there's only here
Give in to love, or live in fear
No other path, no other way,
No day but today!"
