    His music has changed my life, and I've never been able to say that before. His music keeps me comfortable when I'm not, happy when I'm sad, and times sad when I'm happy. I've never felt that with any band/musician until Brian, it's truly helped me through everyday life and I am so thankful for it. He is a true artist who loves what he does, he thoroughly puts everything into every song.... Sorry for going on and on, but really his music is a huge part of my life. Thank you Brian.

    Brian Fallon has helped me face the realities both harsh and beautiful of the moments of my life. And because of that, my life has been not changed but enhanced. And for that I say thank you.

    You can’t beat a beautiful, simple acoustic version. Well played Brian, if you pour your heart into the song people will recognise that. Unfortunately most won’t but that’s their loss. 🤘🏽

    Thank you Brian for writing such a beautiful song . I'm sure it helps not only me heal, remember, and smile when I am taken over by the memories I will cherish when I hear this tune. It is medicine as much as it is music for me.

    Pull it out, turn it up, what's your favorite song?
    That's mine, I've been crying to it since I was young
    I know there's someone out there feelin
    Just like I feel I know they're waiting up
    I know they're waiting to heal
    And I've been holding my breath
    Are you holding your breath
    For too many years to count?
    And we waited for the sirens
    That never come
    And we only write by the moon
    Every word handwritten
    And to ease the loss of youth
    And how many years I've missed you
    Pages plead forgiveness
    Every word handwritten
    Let it out, let me in, take a hold of my hand
    There's nothing like another soul
    That's been cut up the same
    And did you want to drive
    Without a word in between?
    I can understand
    You need a minute to breathe
    And to sew up the seams
    After all this defeat
    And we waited for the sirens
    That never come
    And we only write by the moon
    Every word handwritten
    And to ease the loss of youth
    And the many, many years I've missed you
    Pages plead forgiveness
    Every word handwritten
    Here in the dark, I cherish the moonlight
    I'm in love with the way
    You're in love with the night
    And it travels from heart to limb to pen
    And we waited for the sirens
    That never come
    And we only write by the moon
    Every word handwritten
    Every word handwritten
    And with this pen, I thee wed
    From my heart to your distress
    And with this pen, I thee wed
    From my heart to your distress
    And with this pen, I thee wed
    From my heart to your distress

    This was the first time I've ever heard this song or this band....but then, I'm OLD!! :) I really liked it though....and I loved seeing this young man's nice smile at the end of the song....I wish so many of today's artists would SMILE A WHOLE LOT MORE!!! Even though the music & the lyrics are sometimes melancholy....a smile before or during the bridge & at the end are a welcome relief in a rather serious piece of music!! :) Nice performance Mr. Brian Fallon! Use your success wisely, Brian!
