In the spirit of valentines day I have decided to make a compilation of affectionate quotes from songs by the late Jeff Buckley (covers and originals). Enjoy… 1. “Broken down and hungry for your love, with no way to feed it” (Lover you should have come over). 2. “Just like the ocean, always in love…
