I'm closing in on 80 and just recently heard this song. It hit me to the core. Brought tears to my eyes. Life is that way. The closer you get to the end the more you realize it is the memories that keep you going. I have a small box of momentos that I look at from time to time. They are from my military career, my youth, and other times in my life. I listen to this song at least once a day. As Jimmy Bufffet said about life "some of it's tragic, some of it's magic but it's been a good life all the way."
80 next August and love the sentiment of this song.I have a house full of art done by friends mostly gone now along with one of the finest artist lve known.Gone now going on five years
I see this guy often where i work. Born and raised where he was too, right down the street. Humble dude. Im young and he probably doesnt know i know who he is but i just treat him like anybody else. Real nice dude. Introduced himself and told me about his upbringings and even asked about mine. Great customer, great dude.
I met LL after a show many years ago, right after this album came out. There were a number of us who waited outside the back door of the theater to meet him. As we crowded around him to get autographs and a minute or two of conversation, he took as much time with each person as he or she wanted. When it came my turn, I couldn't help but feel that he treated me like I was the only person there. He didn't just sign and nod. He didn't just give me a canned response. He listened to me and conversed with me. I also always cut musicians slack when meeting them. They just got off work. They are tired, and I never take offense to what they say or how they act. Most are very nice. Some aloof. I'm just glad to be there. But I have yet to meet anyone who could make every person in line feel as though he truly appreciated the fact that they were there, as though he wanted to talk to them, like Lyle did. The man exudes coolness and grace and I will always consider my two minutes with him as a very special moment in my life.
Just saw Lyle with the Large Band with Mavis Staples @ the Wolf Trap in Virginia. I've seen Lyle 5 times now. What stands out above all with Lyle is he is a true gentleman. His pastor was there that night and he spent a time talking about him and his wife and how much they had done for him and their dedication to training chaplains for the military. Lyles one of the good guys and someone I would be proud to know. He also has one hell of a sense of humor and is a wicked good story teller.
Saw Lyle at the Wolftrap, Birchmere, in Norfolk, Carpenter Center in Richmond, in Bozeman, MT and a few other places. He never disappoints between his music, humour and stories. He’ll always be a favourite of mine...
A legend in his own time So glad him and another living legend John Hiat toured for awhile together. Simple quality thru and true and when they rock they do it well. Thank you Mr Lovett.
This song reaches out just like a real invitation: a sincere reaching out that clasps you in its hands and gives you an intimate tour. It has the soul of a seven year old finding a new friend.
Had the pleasure of seeing and hearing Lyle in Concert Hall, Glasgow, Scotland. for the first many many years ago, he appeared by himself and a celloist, he entertained the audience with great songs and musicianship and anecdotes.
When I hear singer/songwriters like Guy Clark and Lyle Lovett, it's clear that some people are ordained at birth to be the writers of songs and the interpreters of songs. Masterful song and masterful performance.
Damn it !! This fricking song made me cry. Perhaps is due to the Covid 19 times we're all living in, but this song, and Lyle's voice, broke me to tears. And, of corse, some memories of my own life. Thank you, and have a beautiful life everybody. Peace.
They were specially talented people....long before their time .......Guy, Townes, Jerry Jeff, Blaze, Steve Earle, Rodney and Willie.....Texas music was the epitome of originality.
And that is the "short" list. Robert Earl, Jimmie Dale, Butch Hancock, Blaze, Joe Ely, Calvin Russell, Willis Allen Ramsey, Marcia Ball, Doug Sahm, Billy Joe Shaver, so many more. There is something in the Texas water that no other state can even come close to. I am so glad I left that shithole, NY to move to Austin in 1980.
Lyle Lovett, I knew you were a star the second I first heard you @ Mr. Gattis's in College Station. You never get old. Steve & I both think you are FABULOUS because you are! Juanita & Steve Baker, San Angelo, TX.
When I stumbled upon the "Step Inside This House" album I didn't know about any of the TX writers and it completely changed everything I thought I knew about music. Guy Clark, Lyle Lovett, Townes Van Zandt, Rodney Crowell and Steve Earle, they are all amazing! and there are many, many more of them out there!
Lyle Lovett is truly a master, and the world is so much better for having his art in it. I wish he was more celebrated as an artist. He deserves it. I'm not a country fan, but he transcends a genre. If you ever see this, Mr. Lovett, Thank you for blessing this world with your talent.
As a museum curator, I have always loved this song as a touching testimony to the emotional importance of objects in our life. Guy Clark totally nailed this! I have no idea what he can possibly criticize about it.
One doesn’t need thousands of “things” to appreciate being alive. Life in itself is a wonderful thing. Sung beautifully by Lyle written by the great Guy Clark.
we're all broken in one way or another. . .when those breaks have the right light they produce a rainbow. Guy Clark was a poet as great as any of the romantic period.
Really hard to say what irked Guy about this.There is one line that’s a little clumsy, doesn’t scan too well. Still, I’m stumped as to why he never recorded it and didn’t even want Lyle to keep performing it.
Lyle Lovett has always been one of my favorite entertainers. I always felt he never got the credit he deserved. I would like to see him cut a new Cd soon.
Lyle Lovett is one of best preforming artists and song writers of any generation. If you have the opportunity go and see this man preform, he is well worth the price of admission.
I have this CD. He was in Pennsylvania and did a meet and greet sponsored by WXPN at a Borders bookstore..And afterwords we waited in line until 1 AM and he signed part of the insert for me. And he was so tired. And I told him 'you are so tired -- please get some sleep. You would really feel good with more sleep." And he smiled and said 'thank you ma'am. That's the best suggestion I've had all night.' Nice memories of Lyle,
Yeah wow I’ve always admired Lyle Lovett and I got to see him once a few years ago here in Cleveland with his large band is simply one of the best shows I ever saw. I’ve only had those kind of feelings in this song a few times in my life and by damn I wish I hadn’t lost them. I don’t believe we are meant to be alone on this planet and no matter how hard we try we screw it up we can screw it up huge For whatever reason we end up alone. I’d like to have these feelings again to ask some some girl to step inside again and share my life as hard as that may be thank you I love it for this moment. 💔💕 For many of us love is all we need damn it’s hard to get
he does small venue shows here in the Bay Area too, at a winery in the hills from here, I have seen him twice, no matter how many times he is a breath of good air.
Nicely put J Oliver, wife just died and as I and son went through all her memories and stuff and my god you hit it right, it is the small things that are the most meaningful
I have to thank a dear friend of mine, for bring up Lyle Lovett's name..The time was very creative indeed and a mix of talent bloomed. Still does, but not the same. Nothing is the same, lyrically incredible. feeling memories a guitar ..And just peace. I applaud Lyle Lovett and his music and how he created a passion in me of the gifted artist and musicians that I enjoy all these years later.
I'm 58, I've been playing guitar since I was 16. I've seen Lyle over the years but only during his country ups. I regret that I haven't discover him... his true musical side until just now. I've spent hours listening to this wonderful musician. I'm a new fan, maybe a bit too late.
Remember, this was Guy's first song. First. Song. He just got better from there on. And BTW this says everything you need to know about the protagonist's life. I love this song and pretty much anything that Guy wrote. A classic storyteller.
Had the honor of seeing Lyle Lovett, Guy Clark, Joe Ely and John Hiatt together in '05 in East Lansing MI during their Songwriters tour. Lyle sang this song with Guy Clark by his side. It was a beautiful thing indeed.
Me as well Steve, in my case, in a tiny theater in Princeton. I'm sure they would have done it had there been no-one else there at all. They had each other, and because of that the night was perfect.
Saw the 4 of them around 2006-07. I was fully expecting Lyle to be the headliner but was pleasantly surprised as he humbly and graciously shared the time, each performer taking turns singing a song. No egos at all on that stage, just a ton of talent!
Such a pure meaning to inviting people in your life.... but what is amazing is being thanked for it .,, love this song,,and even better with the story behind it.
Gracious, humble, generous with credit, praise & admiration of others...smooth, accomplished artist...Wonderful job Mr. Lyle Lovett. I have to think Mr. Guy Clark would smile at this rendition. Thank you for sharing your talent & gifts with us. May God bless you & yours. Be well.
What a wonderful version of a FANTASTIC song. I bought the Old Number One record , Guy's first recording the day it came out. I remember like it was yesterday growing up in Houston and riding my Norton to Evolution Tapes and Records in Pasadena. I sure love these songwriters like Lyle and Guy. And God Bless Townes.
***** Hey Greasegun! How are you. I had several BSA and Triumphs also. I have been riding for 44 years now. The Norton was an 850 Commando. I have two Hrleys presently but I am not riding much anymore. I need to sell mine and get a trike…lol.
Pipe Papi Yeah...shame. My back is too busted to ride anymore. Just the same, any of them Trumps still around? I had my one 650 worked over with pop up pistons and dual carbs and it ran like a banshee, except...at 140 Lbs. the kick starter kicked me back; launched me once. I used to get curious bystander to push start it. I only last week parted with my last...a Honda Shadow. Heavy bike! I'm done with it now. Besides, my car is faster. (Yes, it is!) Peace...
Sadly, when I was in Nashville at the Country Music Hall of Fame, there was nary a reference to Lyle. Sad. Even Bob Dylan had a huge spread with Nashville Cats. But Lyle - nada. Disgrace.
He made remember going back to Georgia to my grandmas. They didn’t have much but it was home to me. In that old house I could be anything, and love was the thing that made it feel like a castle.
Guy Clark is my favorite song writer, I'm 46, I've been writing songs since I was 16 , I wish I had one to complain about like this, this song, like Guy himself, is a masterpiece!
It really is amazing how many singers fly under the radar, as he did with me. I had heard of him for MANY years during my fifty four years of life and caught him and Robert Earl Keen opening for George Strait at the T-Moblie Arena in Las Vegas last 7 and 8 of December it was a REAL eye opener for me. His unassuming, humble, polite and kind demeanor is what I hope to aspire to. I have a LONG way to go to catch him.
I saw Lyle open up for sting believe it or not in 1998 I think it was he blew me away I want there to see sting I came away huge Lyle fan. and I danced all night with Maureen
He opened for Rickie Lee Jones in Atlanta around 1989 or 1990 and just blew me away. I bought all his CDs the next day, I think he only had two or three out at the time, but I've been hooked ever since.
Mr. Lovett sings to my soul. I love to listen to him sing and speak, seems like a fellow I’d like to know, sensitive and kind. I’d like to be like that. Texas
I'm closing in on 80 and just recently heard this song. It hit me to the core. Brought tears to my eyes. Life is that way.

Thank you for your service! 🇺🇸 Hopefully there's more runway left for us...grateful to still be here! Rediscovering Lyle! 😊
I’m getting up there too. Your comment brought tears to my eyes. Thanks for the thoughts.

Yes I agree
I met LL after a show many years ago, right after this album came out. There were a number of us who waited outside the back door of the theater to meet him.

Wicked games
Stay true to your roots, son. Lyle is a perfect example.
A beautiful moment captured. Thank you for letting me see it.

A legend in his own time
So glad him and another living legend John Hiat toured for awhile together. Simple quality thru and true and when they rock they do it well.
Thank you Mr Lovett.
I had the pleasure of briefly meeting Lyle, after seeing him multiple times, a real genuine gentleman, and a musical legend!
This song reaches out just like a real invitation: a sincere reaching out that clasps you in its hands and gives you an intimate tour. It has the soul of a seven year old finding a new friend.
My Favorite Musician...MR.Lyle Lovett!!!!!!
ich schäme mich, diesen Artisten nicht gekannt zu haben. Möge diese Stimme die Welt erreichen.
A not well enough appreciated musical genius. Lyle Lovett an artist.
Please keep singing it, Lyle...
This song hit my core!!!! Still feeling the goosebumps. Thank you 🙏
I am from Monahans and to me Guy was wrong about this song. To me it is his best song in terms of emotion and kindness.
One of those seemingly simple songs that contain so much, and Lyle packs his version with such emotion. Love it.
As a fan of Guy, and Lyle... what is there to criticize? It's a great song. I love it.
Had the pleasure of seeing and hearing Lyle in Concert Hall, Glasgow, Scotland. for the first many many years ago, he appeared by himself and a celloist, he entertained the audience with great songs and musicianship and anecdotes.

Never tire of Lyle's interpretation of this wonderful song.❤❤❤❤

One of the great songwriters, by one of our best musicians. Thanks, Lyle.
Lyle's a treasure, and this is one of my favorites he does. Seen him several times and never seen him do it live.
This was such a special moment at a really wonderful CT Forum. Hearing Lyle sing live and up close is powerful and touching.
Beautiful way of describing the small things in life, of which no one else can place a value, neither can they be bought or sold.
Nicely put J Oliver, wife just died and as I and son went through all her memories and stuff and my god you hit it right, it is the small things that are the most meaningful
The emotions captured in just this one song everyone can relate to. You can't find two songs in your lifetime that can do that.
I can name a handful of Guy's songs that bring me to tears.
ok, first time I've ever heard this, song and Lyle just blew me away
Lyle first class all the way, never passed a chance to see Him & his large band here in phoenix, was never disappointed !

Lovett did this song last night in Chapel Hill. I love Guy Clark, but had never heard this song. Wow, it was the highlight of the show for me.
Lovett could sing the phone book and make it sound good. Such a talent.
quin bagwell definitely, and Guy Clark could write the phone book and somehow make it beautiful and interesting
True spent millions of miles on the road in a truck listen to him
This isn't a phone book though, this is lyrical genius.

Remember, this was Guy's first song. First. Song. He just got better from there on. And BTW this says everything you need to know about the protagonist's life. I love this song and pretty much anything that Guy wrote. A classic storyteller.
guy clark!!! you picked the RIGHT person to sing this song!! he will kick it out of the house!! great job, LYLE! my hero!
This is a profoundly intelligent, gentlemanly singer-songwriter with so much fine wisdom and humor.

Same story, different venue. Shows the amazing power of these men and their absolute love of words and expressing what we all feel!

I love Guy Clark, and I've somehow never listened to Lyle before. This is beautiful
Such a pure meaning to inviting people in your life.... but what is amazing is being thanked for it .,, love this song,,and even better with the story behind it.
Thank you for the story and the song, as a Guy Clark and Lyle Lovett fan this is high cotton and greasy enchiladas.
This man's music and voice makes me happy. His stories are from the heart. Intimate.
Knew Guy in Houston many years ago when he first started singing and writing.He was a very sweet man.
Gracious, humble, generous with credit, praise & admiration of others...smooth, accomplished artist...Wonderful job Mr. Lyle Lovett. I have to think Mr. Guy Clark would smile at this rendition. Thank you for sharing your talent & gifts with us.
May God bless you & yours. Be well.
Love it Lyle...
One of the best Double CD's in my collection...
One of my favorites, by one of my favorites, wrote by one of my favorites.
Saw Lyle in concert.....one of the best I’ve had the pleasure to see/hear!
A serious heartfelt song. Appreciate it done this way by Lyle Lovett
Even years later this is outstanding
Love this guys music!! 😍🎶❤️
What a wonderful version of a FANTASTIC song. I bought the Old Number One record , Guy's first recording the day it came out. I remember like it was yesterday growing up in Houston and riding my Norton to Evolution Tapes and Records in Pasadena. I sure love these songwriters like Lyle and Guy. And God Bless Townes.
Norton, eh? I had a stable of Trump 650s. All kickstart, all magneto.
***** Hey Greasegun! How are you. I had several BSA and Triumphs also. I have been riding for 44 years now. The Norton was an 850 Commando. I have two Hrleys presently but I am not riding much anymore. I need to sell mine and get a trike…lol.
Pipe Papi
Yeah...shame. My back is too busted to ride anymore. Just the same, any of them Trumps still around? I had my one 650 worked over with pop up pistons and dual carbs and it ran like a banshee, except...at 140 Lbs. the kick starter kicked me back; launched me once. I used to get curious bystander to push start it. I only last week parted with my last...a Honda Shadow. Heavy bike! I'm done with it now. Besides, my car is faster. (Yes, it is!) Peace...
I had 3 Honda 900 Customs all 1981. You guys have way too much money! ;-) . Lyle is so amazingly powerful. I love that guy.
I like so much to listen to his voice and this song and Church are my favorite. 🥰
Fantastic interpretation Lyle Lovett!
Love this, Lyle! Please keep singing it.
I have never heard this song before, found myself listening for each word, when the clapping started I wanted to join in, wish I was there
Möge diese Stimme Europa erreichen...
Such am amazing, wonderful, beautiful talent. Thanks, Lyle!! God Bless You!!
This is REAL country music.
Sadly, when I was in Nashville at the Country Music Hall of Fame, there was nary a reference to Lyle. Sad. Even Bob Dylan had a huge spread with Nashville Cats. But Lyle - nada. Disgrace.
He made remember going back to Georgia to my grandmas. They didn’t have much but it was home to me. In that old house I could be anything, and love was the thing that made it feel like a castle.
I have loved this song for years. I love Guy Clark songs, I also Lyle Lovett and how he sings his songs. I use it as a touchstone when I’m blue.
Saw him some years back at the Fox theater in Detroit, Awesome show! Love to go to see some music again!
Grande Lyle, canción intimista y sincera. Bravo. Un saludo a tod@s desde España.
This instantly brought tears to my eyes, man I can relate
Totally love this song! I listen to this while I'm out on the bike!!!!!!
Yo también escuchándola montado en bici, pero yo dentro en mi bici estática 😉
I can’t imagine anyone else doing this song and this is my favorite performance.
what can you say about this music from a 76 year old Texan God should shine on all these fine folks.
A VOICE I HAVE LOVED SINCE I 1ST HEARD IT. VERY UNIQUE.
Guy Clark is my favorite song writer, I'm 46, I've been writing songs since I was 16 , I wish I had one to complain about like this, this song, like Guy himself, is a masterpiece!
Simplicity and perfection. Thanks
I just love his spirit and that voice.
Lyle is a great friend. I cherish his talent & friendship.
It really is amazing how many singers fly under the radar, as he did with me. I had heard of him for MANY years during my fifty four years of life and caught him and Robert Earl Keen opening for George Strait at the T-Moblie Arena in Las Vegas last 7 and 8 of December it was a REAL eye opener for me. His unassuming, humble, polite and kind demeanor is what I hope to aspire to. I have a LONG way to go to catch him.
0 dislikes... Lyle Lovett is the man
Lovett's style makes this a beautiful ballad.
Beautiful song...I hope he's now proud of his creation!
no words for this, so nice!!
Beautiful song ~
Thanks for posting Kenny. Really cool model!
Lyle Lovett is proof that Texas should be preserved, in spite of it all, just in case he wants to come back. And sing another song.
Lyle Lovett, Guy Clark and John Moreland are my favorite song writers.
I wish I could give this 10 thumbs up 👍
Great song. Well sung Lyle.
I saw Lyle open up for sting believe it or not in 1998 I think it was he blew me away I want there to see sting I came away huge Lyle fan. and I danced all night with Maureen

god please play this on my radio tomorrow, this kicks all ass
Amazing for a first song! A tune that tells everyone's story if you've lived as long as I.
Mr. Lovett sings to my soul. I love to listen to him sing and speak, seems like a fellow I’d like to know, sensitive and kind. I’d like to be like that. Texas
Lyle paints such a wonderful picture when he sings. Like Dan Fogelberg among others that sing a short story for us.
A true musical treasure for all who can find it in their hearts to walk in the path of the stories of everyday people. Thanks to Guy & Lyle !
I'm with Lyle...a favorite of mine but thanks to Guy ..my favorite by Lyle...not too shabby 😍
How was Lyle Lovett overlooked? He's awesome! He should be on the radio!
He's won 4 grammy's, released many gold albums, and spent lots of time on charts. I think he's done alright.
The question is how did YOU miss him?
Questa canzone e moltoj bella, per una voce ricca di emozioni.... 😊🤗😍😘🎶🎸🎶💘❤️💋💯🌅
