this is really amazing, and I can't stop listening to it over and over, it reminds me with my old home, my family . ... and my father who passed away few years back. "Everything is gone but my heart is hanging on" :' )
@Boudizz You're so right. When you're a kid, everything is forward, and you're in a place with family and friends that seems/feels safe, unchangeable, and more or less happy. Then you get out of school & jump on the merry-go-round called life/making a living. The 30 plus years pass, and you realize a lot of what you had (especially people) are gone, and life seems transient, unstable, and you begin to think: "where did that place and time go - did it even exist?" Hurts more when single.
@greenwich1754 Mate your comment was absolutely spot on and exactly the kind of feelings that I feel in my mid-30s.A sadness/reflective feeling when you think back to happier/innocent times that at the time you unintentionally took for granted,but now wish you could go back to.This track is steeped in that mood and brings a sadness inside when I hear it. Great to hear someone else relates to it as much as I do :')
Mark's songs have such emotional insights... there's so much in every song he writes. I don't know any other songwriter who writes with such empathy and understanding about Life and relationships.
@Kakizinha Yes, indeed, everything's gone for everyone at some point, so may I submit that Jesus Christ is all that any of us has in the end. Jesus, the same, yesterday, today, and forever. I find that to be true comfort
what the fuck .... he...is.....amazing.
