Alter Bridge - Watch Over You (w/lyrics)

[AnimeBelisa]

although we think we are strong, we always need support and we must never allow it to go away we need to grab him and never let it go ... believe me I know

[EponasArchangel]

heard this on the radio many times and love it, but made the mistake of thinking it wa by Alex Band and The Calling. thank you for setting me straight.

[HaleyCallistar]

Just discovered...and loved immediately...



[NicoleLovesSlash15]

@HaleyCallistar Check out the live in amsterdam version, even better :) x

[LastManStanding693]

Can YouTube please put a repeat button on here?!?!?!

[jimfan08]

Wow, great song! Can't believe I'm just now hearing it ... .What's wrong with me LOL!!!

[HisBeautifulAngle]

This just became my new favorite song and band! This song made me cry :(

[thewantedlover322]

i love alterbridge they is just really cool i love this song

[itsthejuggernaut87]

I think some of you retards only listen to the chorus because you obviously have no idea what this song about, lmao. He is leaving his girl because she wouldn't change for him and he's taking the "you'll never find anyone like me" road in an attempt to get her to beg him to stay and change for him. It's not a love song, fucktards.

[mizzbabz14]

@itsthejuggernaut87  lmfao yeah'

[nerdymom2]

@itsthejuggernaut87 lmfao

[BFMVHeadbanger]

[MrBenni311]

[TheOsirix12]

you all saying your stories which should'nt concern to some people,,,you just ruining thier day when they read this,,,please

[Amyelizabeth52295]

My friend recently lost her grandmother, she raised her since she was a baby. Whenever I listen to this song I just think of how hard it must be for her, she was all she had. And as much as I try to help her I know there's nothing I can say that will bring her grandmother back :/

[nerdymom2]

@Amyelizabeth52295 lmfao you do know this isn't evena love song right?take your depressing storys else where.

[kdwcutie]

Always makes me think of the people who lost loved ones in 9/11, who gives them strength when they're not strong?

[PerfectRockStar1]

I fucking miss you... :'( </3

[Extrashockwave]

amazing song - i think im gonna learn it on guitar :)

[crazybitchxo100]

[Degnan2e]

This is one of my dads favorite songs. But slowly brain cancer has been ripping at him for the past 10 years. Hes a fighter, and im 14. I know why he likes this song. Two apple sized tumors removes from his a week ago. Live Long Dad. I Love You.

[dustinator4u2000]

[2Wolfheartwarrior]

when im gone.....who will help my friends through their hard time? Who will give them the courage to get up and try again?Who will listen 2 their problems and tell them it'll be ok? I was the one there for them, the one always by their side, the one to be silly and annoying at the same time...but they dont realise it.....my friends probably woundnt even care.. if... ive helped them through their times...but theyve never helped me..but i still love them as if they were my own brothers <3 oh well

[horselover199800]

This song made me cry the first time I heard it!!! My dad said he used to listen to this song all the time when my parents got divorced...

[shelbiejay77]

[agsmith69]

i kno tis pathetic but i think of my old cat. and my friend who moved. They was my ONLY friends. I was a nerdy kid. i was the only girl in my moms day care.I cry every time becuz of my cat died of over dose.

RIP Mr.Sassy. My Only friend. And I Miss U Mike!! :'''''(

[MurtaMac]

I'm not for mushyness and sentimental songs etc but the last few words of this song send a chill through me!! amazing song!! a sad, sad song sung so well that its not until the last few lines that u realize how u feel!! wow!!

[born2bsum1]

RIP Cody many people loved you but you died for a great cause, you served our country, everyone misses you but we know that your watching over us now. You died way to young not even 20 yet. :_( November 23, 1991 -- August 3, 2011

[lespaul3826]

/watch?v=Vlh_wj5gqrA, dont forget to put youtube.com in front of it!

[Schauer57]

this is going to sound stupid, he aint dead, but he saved my life. when my dad would get high and shit, this guy would call me and help me through it. he hated my life, said i went through way too much to even still be alive. however i got too much, relied to heavily on him. he had to leave. it broke me. im still broken. i still rememver the look on his face when he found out i hated myself. that i tried to committ suicide. it buns in my mind. i wish i could have him back but he is gone. </3

[xxpuzzlerxx]

i know my fiance will always be watching over me, he died 4 years ago but the pain is still as strong now as it was the day he died love you forever baby

[xxpuzzlerxx]

i know my fiance will always be watching over me, he died 4 years ago but the paid is still as strong now as it was the day he died love you forever baby

[EnigmaSponsors]

Miles Kennedy's talent isn't comparable.

[129Razor]

@EnigmaSponsors So true

[EnigmaSponsors]

@129Razor Yessir. Very true.

[orangecarrotsay]

kurt cobain's successor

[TheGreenDreams3]

this is the most beautiful song i've ever heard.. :) it reminds me of a pet spider i had when i was younger, his name was terry.. i always kept him in a glass jar in my room, but one day he got out... i stopped looking for him after 3 days, assuming terry had died.. the next morning i saw him crawling on my floor, perfectly fine. then i remembered he was a fucking tarantula so i stopped his fuckin creepy ass into my carpet. rip terry <3

[0rebelious0o]

How can anyone dislike this. Its a brilliant song :/

[VampireKitty25]

i love this song,but i find it too depressing:'(<3

[clayton66313]

[MissRyry567]

Before I was born, my mother was pregnant with a girl who was supposed to be my older sister. Her brain didnt develop right, so she died a few months into the pregnancy. I just found all of this out today. Hannah, even though I never knew you, I love you with all my heart. I hope God is watching over you in Heaven. R.I.P. sis, I'm sorry you had to die <3

[0AssassinsCreed0]

@MissRyry567 yeahh i can relate.....i found out my mom had like 6 abortios before i was born.....

[BellaSolveig]

[Emper0rH0rde]

Has there ever been written a more depressing song than this?

[koukitoutaaa]

@shogunruasknees u should never have walked out on her if u truly loved her ... maybe u needed to be more persistent .. letting her know that u won't fail her like her own parents did ... if u still love her , i think u should talk to her again ....

[JoeyGirlWasHere]

@shogunruasknees Im sorry to hear bout that, man. Maybe someday, she'll realize what shes doing and change her ways. . .

[sforhadbk]

I don't think it;s a dislikeble song

[noyup]

this song makes me think of my brother who passed away a few years ago and every time i am thinking about him and this song comes on it makes me feel alot better than i started ou

t feeling

[0Herathos0]

hay temazos wn y esta este tema ql!!

Alter Bridge rules

[cheercat2]

I don't like this song. Why? Because it used to make me think of who i loved. But the thing is, i love them. I'm not going anywhere.

Forever & Ever, Manney.

[HoundoomFreak007]

This song makes me think of the imaginary wall in between me and the girl I love. We love each other, but she has a bf that she's been with and known longer than she's known me. I just wish someday I'll have my chance with her, I wish someday I'll have my chance to watch over her. :/

[brbgettinlaidxD]

Nothing I ever do is enough to make her happy... I don't think I can take it much longer...

[evelyne22ita]

Questa canzone mi fa venire da piangere :'( ma è bellissima *-*

[Death0Raging0God]

3:02-3:05 goosebumps 

[C0r3d33zNutz]

Dumb bitch, nothing i ever did was enough....you played way to many games. I wish i could have been with you but you made it so hard. </3

[JokerAndTheTheif45]

@C0r3d33zNutz dude im currently going through the same thing. this song just kinda makes it worse... but i cant stop listening to it!

[milovela1983]

@C0r3d33zNutz i feel for you... :O(

[C0r3d33zNutz]

@milovela1983 thanks.

[usuf1990]

It's so gud to see all comments here

[CirqueDuCreep]

I wish I could watch over you John, just let me love you. Save me from my misery.

[MuffinMix42]

6 people have no one watching over them

[elonar123456789]

6 dislikes because of the great sorrow they felt when they heard the song, or they just want to feel special -.-

[ajw261078]

this song means so much to me that i have it tattooed on my back, with 3 stars for my partner and 2 children, just to let them know that no matter what, i will always be watching over them, even when i am gone :( x

[ChelcWring]

this goes to my best friends who i always tell to do right and follow jesus.. but they dont seem to listen and they follow the devils temptation.... i will always love them but idk if i can keep trying to help them when they wont listen... it brings me down to much trying to help them and everything i try never seems to work out... i love this song..

[nason232004]

@ChelcWring its nice to have good intentions and try to help someone but you shouldnt try to force religion on your friends.. that will only make things worse.. you cant tell someone else how they should live their life.. i've had many people come up to me on the street or to my house (mormons, jehovahs, etc...) as well as friends who try to push their beliefs onto you as if they see you as some heathen who needs to be saved.. its very condescending and pointless..

[forevergirl22]

Ex sent me this, he's a long distance away from me, so we couldnt be together .

I love him & he loves me .

Sometimes, i forgot that. Until he sent me this . i cried,. ♥

Just makes me feel like, he still cares still... All the way across the country .

[ryann45]

Edge is gone. I long to hear his voice but he's long gone... :(

[COSnowboardWolf]

I woulda gotten to see them at ogden theater april 30th w/ black stone cherry but im a year too young..great band, great song.

[bokkawokka]

rest in peace my son or daughter. he or she was aborted. i will love you forever....

[IdLike2BuyAVowel]

I was up till 3 the other night listening to this song OVER AND OVER AND OVER. i wanna see em live sooooo bad!

[frootlooppps]

my ex showed me this before ending it, i replied

you did carry me, and helped me along,

it was enough you just didnt realize

no one will save me, no one will watch over me,

i did care for you, i love you more then i love myself,

no one will break my fall, and i cant blame anybody,

you could ease my pain, you could help me go on.

if you stayed, you would give me strength to move along,

</3

[joseph2840]

my favorite band... best song ever!!!!

[TheGibber1969]

[TheAlterbridgefan1]

when these guys perform the perform with emotion and their songs are just out of these world seriously the talent

[ale5789go]

I hope those 6 guys missed the like button

[himlover4eva93]

I know this may sound pathetic, but the reminds me of a horse that I bonded with 6 months ago before he died, and I still cry about him today.

R.I.P my friend. </3

[Forelockify]

@himlover4eva93 doesnt sound stupid at all . horses are amazing and sometimes the only friends there for you when no one else is.

[HoundoomFreak007]

@himlover4eva93 thats pretty sad

[TheBrokenWing1]

@himlover4eva93 thats not pathetic at all....its actually kinda sad :[

[GamerThe11]

@himlover4eva93 thats not pathetic man i bonded with a horse too and he died a few years ago i feel the same way you do

[Checalov]

@himlover4eva93

I'm sorry I laughed.

RIP horse.

[DesperadoCrusader154]

@himlover4eva93 You were right. That IS pathetic.

[9TheManiac]

@DesperadoCrusader154

Jeez, how big of a jerk can you be! It's not like you can't love horses like humans. I don't think it's weird.

[A7XRTR]

@himlover4eva93 thts very unique

[pududo]

@himlover4eva93 Hey man is not, a friend is a friend as long as there's a heart to share.

[clubdriver]

@himlover4eva93 Nothing pathetic about that at all my friend. I lost my New Foundland Dog 5 years ago, and i still sometimes cry about him..

[Forelockify]

This song makes me think of my aunt who recently passed away at the age of 45 to cancer. She was married with 2 children ages 13 and 16. ' who is gonna save you when im gone and who'll watch over you and who will give you strength when your not strong who'll watch overr you when im gone away ' <3 :'( Loved and missed Auntie

[wynnpierce]

the perfect song for the perfect addiction

[Sonyaxed]

GREAT SONG!

[JETAIMERONNIE]

!! <3 ALTER BRiDGE <3 !!

[SouthernBelleStormy]

omg. I havent heard this song in like..a year. I started crying as soon as it started cause it made me think of my Granpa who passed in May 2010. ]:

[ALLBLAIZ1201]

lov'ya <3<3<3

[Llivesforever3110]

reminds me at my friend who was murdered,he was my best friend,he was like a brother for me,he didn't deserve to die.

[j0eMiru]

@Llivesforever3110  nobody deserves to get murdered =[

losing friends is hard.... but they'll be with u forever

its good that you have something to remember him.

peace,, joe

[ajayarb]

just awesome lyrics......salute.....

[MsHellgirl100]

ok im sick of hearing hate comments bout this song! DNT SAY SHIT UNLESS U NO WAT THE SONG IS ABOUT HOLY FUCK

[jwebby85]

This song is for everyone who tried to love someone who just couldn't accept it. for one reason or another.

[Tigfist]

professional lyrics ;) and reaaly nice song. The guitarist is Mark Tremonti - my fauvorite ;)

[REVer112]

they played this last night and it was the most beautiful thing ive ever heard

[jwebby85]

I have listened to this song for a couple years on my ipod. I finally know where the writer is coming from because thats exactly where i am and who my ex is. So I dedicate Watch Over You by Alter Bridge to my Ex-girlfriend. I hope she finds happiness and someone who whill love her as much as I did.

[guuy007x0]

this song make me angry abd sad but also happy...:(

[xXToThEndXx]

Why does this song remind me of so many memories, good and bad... :(

[MrRadiatorPants]

I've not really listened to these guys before but fuck me this song is amazing definatley gunna check out some more of their stuff!

[debzpoet]

@MrRadiatorPants better late than never I suppose lol ..they have 3 albums out ..'one day remains '..'Blackbird 'and the brand new one called AB 111 ...and not only are they great in the studio ..Myles Kennedys voice is amazing live too. There are so many good songs from these 3 albums I can't decide which ones to recommend to you but if you like rock ballards like this one check out 'wonderful life 'from AB111 and 'in loving memory' from one day remains .

[GangstaWarrior2012]

This song making me remember of the girl i want so much... and i love her but can 't do anything with her because she think im not good for her... she thinks all the boys are idiots because they call her "Bitch" cuz she have a nice body... but her character is wonderful... and she is a good person... If i could do something with her.. i will show her that song.. And if you got bored reading this, im sorry... i just wanted to say it here, i wanted to post this comment while i was hearing the song

[123ftlistl]

breaks my heart.. it's like my ex-boyfriend's singing it to me!

[vandygurl54]

amazing song!

so sad :[

[vandygurl54]

aww so sad :[

[usmcmarine100]

this reminds me of my ex i loved her so much ='( i did everything for her, she had an abusive step father that beat her but when she talked to me she stayed down stairs away from him when he was passed out drunk i told her to get out of the house i spent nights talking to her making sure she was safe i lost countless hours of sleep just to see her smile i told her we'd make it through togeather......we did =) she got a dog named ut after me but after a year she cheated on me and i let her go V_V

[OpticalShasows]

@usmcmarine100 Damn dude,I was almost crying at this. My girlfriend cheated on me aswell but we only lasted 3 months and I never got to truly express my love for her, and thats what kills me.

[playR1100]

Stay strong and ii hope your mom will R.I.P God Bless Her Soul x

[animecsihorrorfan101]
