May I offer up a few that, in my humble estimation, rival or surpass Mr. Cockburn? 1) Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin - Leonard Cohen "Dance me to the End of Love". 2) Ring them bells ye heathen from the city that dreams Ring them bells from the sanctuaries cross the valleys and streams For they're deep and they're wide And the world on its side And time is running backwards And so is the bride. Bob Dylan "Ring Them Bells" Excellent song and excellent lyrics, to be sure. May I offer up a few that, in my humble estimation, rival or surpass Mr. Cockburn?

1) Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin – Leonard Cohen “Dance me to the End of Love”.

2) Ring them bells ye heathen from the city that dreams
Ring them bells from the sanctuaries cross the valleys and streams
For they’re deep and they’re wide
And the world on its side
And time is running backwards
And so is the bride.

Bob Dylan “Ring Them Bells”
