I love this slower version! For me, it allows me to "hold on" to all of the emotions she creates from pace, her tone and her beautiful voice. It actually makes me misty every time I hear it.
I think this instrumental song was similar with Faye Wong's Wo De Tien Kong (My Sky). I really do think about this. But it doesn't matter about it because both were the most beautiful singers in the world. Thanks for this song Shawn!
This video was the original by a French video production crew and it was too much for 'one' particular Sony executive at the time and as such was nixed and then totally redone. It has too much depth, emotion, artistic expression and challenging content as well as powerful truth - and such qualities, images, feelings and 'art' cause too many people to think and feel and all of us men and women are conditioned to fear emotions or art of depth and meaning. It's truly beautiful.
This great song deserves a great video too! Sorry, but this one is terrible and I'm wondering how she was convinced to do it by the time of making it! I've done a better one and hope that she'll approve it!

I have a live version of this song and when I downloaded it the person wrote Patty Griffin. Well Patty is my favorite and I knew it wasn't Patty. But neat it should be a great friend and tour mate of her's Shawn. Well Shawn is no Patty but she does have a little greatness all her own. Thanks for sharing her and the song
OMG I heard this song at walgreens today and almost cried. The last time I had heard it was when I was in the hospital in Ireland. The women who was going to adopt me sang it for me.
in 1993 a classmate died in a tragic car accident and they played this song. took me years to listen without chills. They even played Kansas Dust In The Wind.
Sweetheart, you know these things because these things were written in your soul...the depth of your beauty astounds anew every single day and I'm so glad to know that written into my soul is my love for you...
Bought a compilation album a few years ago called Woman to Woman. Heard this song and fell in love with it. ( Not words a man would admit to. ) I love this song. If you want areal treat, go out and buy her Greatest Hits album " Poloroids. Magic !!!
I like soooooooo totally agree! I have heard the album about 1 million times and never got tired of it! Amazing voice, amazing guitar playing, amazing lyrics.... Thank you Shawn for your music and for bringing me so many joy- and tearful moments!
Not only did I do the video with her,but I feel she has a beautiful voice as well. Jerry Wallace

Beautiful song but way too slow for me. Alison Krauss' version is so much better (sorry Shawn!)

One of the best guitar solos on a pop song. Pretenders' Kid also has an amazing unsung solo.
