Mark Knopfler - A Place Where We Used To Live + lyrics

[Daggonaut]

This year, I moved to an apartement with my girlfriend I had for 3 years. She completely changed and left me for a random guy after half a year and now I have to live there alone. This song nails it completely. Somehow I don't feel so alone in that apartement when I listen to this. It feels like someone understands.

[rcentor]

The best songs combine words, music and voice. Mark Knopfler has created one of the most beautiful and haunting songs because he understands all 3 concepts. If you listened to the song in a foreign language you could discern the meaning from his voice. If you just read the words you can feel the pain of lost love. Or if you listen to the music the mood is clear.

This song has become my favorite amongst the treasure of Mark Knopfler's songbook. He is consistently great, & this song is best

She left Mark for another life in another town? How sad ......

[milagros212]

He let her go, now she's someone else's wife,... don´t cry man...don´t cry

[bd80]

"And now upstairs and down, you're someone else's wife..." Who doesn't identify with this verse? Who doesn't have an old, forgotten love lost over the years?

Such a beautiful song.

[MrHankanthony]

This song tears me up. What a gift MK has.

[greenwich1754]

@MrHankanthony Wow! I don't know if intentional or not, but brilliant choice of wording: "tears me up" - one meaning produce liquid from eyes, the other a ripping of ones's soul (which produces tears). Works on both levels - absoulutely great! (I intentionally mis-speeleed absolutely).

[GeorgeTel100]

How does he do it??? One incredible song after another for three decades!!! I'm serious, I do not think he's human!

[lalin59]

@GeorgeTel100 Oh my God. You took the words right out of my mouth.

[GeorgeTel100]

@lalin59 Thanks for the response.

[danieleshapiro]

@GeorgeTel100 MK never ceases to amaze me too. I think he is human - kind of superhuman maybe. Cheers!

[GeorgeTel100]

@danieleshapiro I think you're more right than I am :) All the best!

[Irdanwen]

@GeorgeTel100 it's taken from true emotion, real life emotion, since no human being is alone, his feelings are bound to echo with many others' feelings, you andf I are just lucky enough that they be our emotions

[mitatanilbutuner]

someone kill me!

[nuardify]

so Mark :) - love it

[SecondStep216]

трогает за душу

[vulkanizer]

One of the greatest songs written (for me). it's like MK knows my soul.

[greenwich1754]

@vulkanizer Oh boy, is that not true! If there is one person on this earth that I would like to meet, it's Mr. MK. This guy can write songs about most anything, and I have a whole volume of stuff I wish I could tell him/show him, and let him create away his magic songs. Most of what was in this song encapsulates what I feel, but I have other stuff that I wish Mr. K knew about to create his music.

De quoi faire rappeler à chacun que l'amour peut éviter les conflits et la guerre, une note d'espoir !

[desatormentandome]

You know, for years I had this song in a CD under a wrong name. Now I could find it in your channel, with the lyrics too! I'm listening to it and reading the words and dreaming...Thank you heartily!!!

[liberoavventuriero]

splendido!
