This is my stepmoms favorite song... shes in the hospital not expected to recover... pray for her ease in the transition and peace... this song will forever be dear to me...
Me and my wife had 11 years sober and clean. She slipped and it’s been two years since we separated. I cry everyday for her. Our kids are devastated and I pray she gets help
This song resonates with me deeply. I had a history of damaging the women I loved. I also dealt with 2 in particular that were damaged and I damaged them further. I haven't snd probably el never forgive myself. But I have fixed me. I can only hope that I have truly changed. This song is the reminder of what I've done and never wish to do again. Thanks Darius
Only apologise if it's for there benefit not yours . If It's it's for your own benefit then don't because it becomes about you and not them Humility is a great thing to have in your life
Bee Pope I seriously thought I was the only one that listened to this and cried about my mom who passed away. Glad I'm not. I love and miss her so much, every single day.
I've been battling depression for about six or seven years. I try to talk to people but they don't understand or know how to help and I don't want to bother them. So I'm going to take it day by day and one day I'll be better.
Just saw Darius in Tampa last night on the kickoff of his tour. His new stuff is excellent, but when he played his Hootie hits...fantastic. Where did the last 20 years go...
This song reminds me so much with my girlfriend who's my wife now. I was fresh out of rehab but my wife at the time was still using and it was hard, really hard. But fortunately we both got it together and were happily married for 4 years and both have over 6 years clean and sober.
My man ... I pray that the God of Abraham through His Son Christ sends His holy angles that excel in strength to both you and your wife to impress upon your hearts His Goodness and mercies
Nobody asks for guidance and nobody takes advice when given freely. Being married for 30 years, I can say, there are times when you should just, "Let her be"...
@RESPECT MY AUTHORITY Though I don't seem to have many answers for myself these days, sometimes it is just best let them go.. Wishing y'all the best which ever way it goes.

not literally obviously, but I was "her" once upon a time. she walked out, and that was the wakeup I needed. Ill never have her back in my life, but Im grateful she did what she did. because I like who I am today, I don't like who I was.
I listen to this song over and over and over again. It never gets old. This is my song to my girl. Yes we are still together but years ago she left me for drugs and never thought id get her back but 2 years ago i did and shes been clean since ❤ she really did come back
Stipe is the stem of a hallucinagenic mushroom....Remember growing up making fun of Hootie, but over the years and relationships, gotta say that this guy really made his lyrics visual...great song
MissZombie86 I'm still growing up. I have a bad heart and am on my last leg, but I still turn on the radio every day to hear what's new and break out my MP3s to listen to what's not.. If I die and there ain't no music in Heaven, let me sleep.
Heard this on the radio like a month or two ago and thought it was beautiful. I recently began watching Friends a lot at nighttime and there was this episode where some of them went to see hootie and the blowfish. I wondered if it was a real band or just made up for the episode. Weird I do.d out two things at once. Today is a great day to be alive.
Loved this song when I was 13 but it hits so much harder at 42 after experiencing so much of life! Will always be one of my favorite songs of all time!
I think the 90s were so great cause you had all the previous styles of music coming together, blues, punk, metal, Rock, even a hint of disco, oh and rap when it was still fresh.
I mean that's why these guys were big and even they knew it Everything was grunge, alt rock, rap...and yet people were still buying and listening to older rock records and they were like "theres still a market for this sort of stuff"
Damn this song is making me think of my friend who just moved back home to the other side of the US I miss her so much me & her used to always get twisted and listen to music like this I miss you my bff
how is it depressing. He's exposing how he put himself through a destructive relationship. it's more informative and educational than it is depressing. kinda like "Push - Matchbox 20", if you listen closely and dissect the song it tells you this is a bad idea.
Luv the michael stipe reference. Been listening to this album since it came out in 94 in the 7th grade then 38 now born in 81 90s rocked the last decade that was its own.
This beautiful love song speaks of his unconditional love for her and respect for her choices as long as she is content and safe. And he sings it also with intense emotional output as if he's seeing HER face when he closes his eyes. Beautiful
It's about addiction and codependency, he wrote it about a fictional girl but he's really singing about himself and how his alcoholism ruined his relationships
I actually saw them in concert in August of 2014 in Daniels Island at Charleston SC that's the best concert I've ever been too! And my mom said the same thing! I've been to 3 concerts and my moms been to about 15!😍😍
I am 27years old.. and I can still remember my stepfather playing this song to my beautiful mother and I'm pretty sure I was only 3 or 4 years old holy shit this song is bloody good and has a magical feeling when you do play it this song will never get old or dead rock on forever memory's here we all go again a trip back down memory lane 👍🤠🤣😅😂🥰😍🤩🥳😎💯%
Holly Shit!!!! this song just hit me! I have had a hard time lately with my wife of 20 years. I "JUST" understood this song. Thank you Hootie, or Blowfish, or Who ever is responsible for this song being written the way it was played here. Thank you. I know now I am not alone.
Hurts when your man drinks or uses and it's like they never knew you. They have stuff to stop pain and forget while you're stuck hurting and missing them. Do you ever wonder if they think about you and miss you when they drink or use? I question. My heart hurts and misses him 24/7. How long until you get to feel there love again?
God Bless drinking makes the pain gonaway or it get harder depends who you are and how to take it and just be patient youll find the right one soon youll make yoursehappy you wont need anyone to make you happy but that time will come soon!! Build yourself before anything
Why ruin this for men? It's not for you. Literally 97% of heartache based aongs are from a female perspective but you couldnt just take your ass there. I'm pretty sure I fully understand why your man uses drugs and alcohol and it had a lot to do with you posting here
I remember the day I heard this and the next thing I knew I let her cry and I let her go...and ♪ ♫ when the sun comes up tomorra, let her be. ♪ ♫ ♪ ♫ Let Her Cry if her tears fall down like rain, let her sing, if it eases all her pain let her go (oh Lord) and let her walk right out on me and if that sun comes up tomorroa let her be, let her be. . .being single is like being number one (1) lonely. . .1 is the lonliest number.
I luv this song I remember my mom listening to this song wen I was little wen I was like 8 now I'm 34 playing it still luv it but hurts me because my girlfriend walked out on me one day I was at work loveing song
I used to sing the song to my ex-wife and she cried every time. We've been split up for a long time, but we have two kids together so we see each other a lot. Now if I sing it (or Home by Daughtry) she cries even more. I have created my own personal hell from bad decisions I've made. I can't change it so I don't dwell on it. I just do what I've always done: move on.
Steve Jacobson Don't beat yourself up....I used to do the same thing....till I found out it was myself who was the one in the dark....that's probably why she cries like that ....Its guilt ...don't ler her make you feel like you are the guilty one with her fake crying....I KNOW women .....That's what they do...They let you cut yourself then act they are the ones bleeding....Don't be a fool like myself....DO MOVE ON....WITH NO REMORSE.....Women are the guilty ones....You'll just never know it...because men are the only ones to EVER TELL THE TRUTH !!! ..PERIOD.
Steve Jacobson Best wishes to ya Steve...I hope your recovery is quick and full....Keep your mind in a good place Steve...That is VERY important....Again best of luck brother !! Keep your chin up !! Sincerely, Buck
Now I'm older and I actually understand the lyrics. I get why my grandfather use to constantly ask me rewind this cassette and play it again.
Eventually, everyone understands this song. I envy those who can't understand it. One of my favorites
This is my stepmoms favorite song... shes in the hospital not expected to recover... pray for her ease in the transition and peace... this song will forever be dear to me...
I'm so sorry. I hope all is well and you're family is doing ok.
Prayers in progress

Love it!!;
Hope all is well
Me and my wife had 11 years sober and clean. She slipped and it’s been two years since we separated. I cry everyday for her. Our kids are devastated and I pray she gets help
Please, don't ever give up ❤
I wish you the best my friend
Pray to The Great Physician . Jesus , He never leaves you and is stronger than any addiction. I have already prayed for you 🙏.
This song is a mirror for me and my husband. We came along way together and thru the fire and smoke we didn't turn to ashes. I love you Archie

It gets better. Pretty soon you'll start to remember songs from what your parents played. Lol.
Amen to this

Yes! Let her be. Otherwise the washing, cooking and cleaning will never get done! Lol!!! x

Stipe is the stem of a hallucinagenic mushroom....Remember growing up making fun of Hootie, but over the years and relationships, gotta say that this guy really made his lyrics visual...great song
I’m pretty sure that lyric “But Stipe’s not far behind” is a reference to the lead singer and songwriter from R.E.M, not psychedelic mushrooms
I get all choked up hearing this song! 😢
He's from my state , an they're playing in the I heart radio thing
This song is definitely about addiction and how powerless our loved ones are over it.
Love this song. Hits me in the
this is a song that makes me think of the relationship i had with my mom...always picking up her pieces.
I'm 18 and I love this song so glad my dad raised me with this type of music .

The lyrics are so depressing but the song is so happy for me anyways. Its epic. Imagine it live. Good stuff.
I have seen it live when Darius opened up for brad paisley a few years ago. It was awesome
how is it depressing. He's exposing how he put himself through a destructive relationship. it's more informative and educational than it is depressing. kinda like "Push - Matchbox 20", if you listen closely and dissect the song it tells you this is a bad idea.
