Lyrics:
Now everyone dreams of a love lasting and true
But you and I know what this world can do
So let's make our steps clear that the other may see
And I'll wait for you
If I should fall behind
Wait for me

My wife just passed last night at 7pm and I'm not able to sleep right now. It's been almost 19 years since I haven't slept next to that beautiful woman who gave me herself to me and gave me a beautiful daughter. She gave me all of herself and knew me better than I knew myself. I was able to whisper into her ear last night everything I wanted to say to her and so did our child. As we left the hospice house I knew it was going to be the last time we would see her. I know she will wait for me. I'll never forget you my beautiful wife. You only find true love once in a lifetime and we had that. I'm at a loss right now 😭
Sorry for your lost.Greetings from Germany. I did see Bruce 3 times.
First time 88 in East Berlin.
He was hope for meny people.
My girl left after 20 years some weeks ago. So we are split now.
But but.Live gos on my friend.
I wish you all the best.
We still have Bruce.❤
This sobg is perfect for🎉his voice.
Song
This was the song we chose as our wedding song.
The wife is not so well right now.
❤❤❤🫂
My father listened to Bruce Springsteen every.single.day, blasting his music in our home for decades. Last spring he fell into a coma, and everyday we softly played Bruce for him in the hospital. Unfortunately he passed last April, but every time I hear these songs, its eases the pain and reminds me of such fond memories of him. Thank you Bruce for bringing such joy into my father's life.
Ingrid Hilda
Sending prayers!
I’m getting older now but I’ve loved you all forever xoxo
Ingrid Hilda I'm so sorry for you loss I know that's hard
Ingrid Hilda that's beautiful
I remember your first hit when I was around 9
Beautiful. Clarence comes out of the dark and plays the most beautiful sax solo ive ever heard. RIP big man
And he´s voice.
My wife and I met 51 years ago..at a band practice. She was the singer. During a break I picked up a guitar and played Felicianos version of Light My Fire. We married 10 months later. 50 years later…kids, mortgages and life she’s recently been diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic cancer. Our time together is limited. When she falls behind…I will wait for her.
765 Thumbs down, WHAT? WHY? Don't you feel this in your hearts, your souls, your bones?
Do you have some feelings in your bodies at all?
Unbelievable to me.,
So raw, so pure, so full of love and passion how these ppl sang this song. (Bruce, Stevie, Nils, Patti and Clarence, thank you for this raw version of this song)
Chills all over my body everytime I'm listening to it and that's many many many times and many times will follow.
Just goes to show you that this world is in trouble. This song gives me chills and a heavy heart when I think that one day my sunshine of 35 years may fall behind. I will wait for her and I hope to god she will wait for me. These 766 thumbs down can go .... themselves.
I played this at my wife's funeral June 2019, I have listened to it every week since.
Kristine honey you have been gone 2 years today wait for me". 4/6/21
Chinese boxing by Allan Williams I’m very sorry for the loss of your wife. I lost my deepest love, my mother, 4 years ago. It truly does cut very deep. You have my sincere condolences. Peace to you my friend.
I too listened to the song my Father liked, it really hit me so hard. It was a particularly emotional song. I can’t understand what it would be like to loose your soulmate. It gets easier and in many ways I wish it didn’t. Take care.
God Bless, peace be with you.
@@barnabusbucky Thank you Glenn
@@kw7570 God bless
We played this song at our wedding 8 years ago, my husband picked it , He died 3 years ago and today is our wedding anniversary. Maybe it is coincidence but maybe a hidden message.
Alison Fisher not a coincidence angel
@@melissamarie6750 probably not. I feel its more about a proplem with your partner which I'm sure you didnt have. You can generaluse it obviously but I took it to mean a proplem and it helped me through funny enough. I'm a massive fan thoughx
Your husband is still here baby, he's all around.
Beautiful... Just look behind you Alison.
Dear Alison..I believe there are no coincidences in life 💜
My wife walked up the aisle to this song. I will never forget how she looked that day or how I felt right there and then. We are married 8 yrs this month. Every time something feels wrong in our world, I put this on, it brings everything back to how it is and how it should be. Whether it's love or a chemical reaction in our brain, I never have or never will feel what I do for her. These words are amazing, it's poetry, it's soul, its rare and raw.
How lucky you both are. Keep it going. I had 46 amazing years with the best man I ever knew until he died.
Losing Clarence was heartbreaking, I loved him and his music, he was such a big part of Bruce's life. And of course, all of our lives, who ever heard him.
My late husband and I made this agreement: to wait for one another if the other fell behind. It so happened he died before me so he will wait for me. He said he would and I believe him. I can't wait to see him again. Waiting to be with him again seems like forever. I bet for him, it's the blink of an eye, and I'm glad.
+Elizabeth deVries I don't know personally but can imagine it can be depressing to lose a loved one like him. Please don't get overwhelmed. Know there are people that care and need you.
yeah, I guess losing your husband can be kinda depressing...sheesh! really???
My deepest sympathy Elizabeth.
+Elizabeth deVries i hope hes waiting at the gates of heaven for you god bless
+Elizabeth deVries I'm sorry too, for your loss, great will be your reward for so patiently waiting, I wish you peace my friend.
+Elizabeth deVries What a lovely comment thanks for sharing. I was told when someone you love dies, part of you dies. When you see you're husband again, it will be some party and hopefully this song will be the music in the back ground.
In the last two or three decades, Springsteen's work sometimes feels more like prayers, hymns, or parables than mainstream rock songs. This song, Land Of Hopes And Dreams, The Rising, Atlantic City, Empty Sky, American Skin (41 Shots) -- these are deeply moving and spiritual.
Played recently at my dear mum's funeral. A song that has always represented for me my mum and dad's 60+ years' love and togertheness.
My dad recently passed. This song is perfectly described for their 52+ years together of marriage. ❤️
Man this song... It's the first time I've heard it, I thought it was something else. But the song is so emotionally charged for me I'm crying listening.. second hearing, the song is so heartfelt I'm sniffling and feeling the tears flowing down my cheeks. Every member of the band brings their own soul into the piece.
my husbands favorite rendition of this song. Sadly he gained his wings and now is waiting for me. The pain of his loss is real and heartbreaking. I'll love him forever and a day.
May God reward your faith, Karen.
April 7 2018 I lost my wife. She never listened to Bruce before we married. She was a mother to our 3 kids and the world to me. I tried to take her to see him in concert in VA beach in 2016 but a hurricane had other plans. Here’s to you baby I love you.
R.I.P. YOU HAVE A GREAT SOUL, BUDDY.........
Life is hard I wish the best for you
I love this song . I also loved hearing Clarence sing. He had a beautiful voice. I never heard him sing. He is truly missed. I enjoyed the E Street band contributing on this version of such a beautiful song. Thank you all
Clarence had a hit single in 1985-86 with a duet with Jackson Browne, "You're a Friend of Mine." Springsteen was at his peak of popularity then, and a rising tide was lifting all boats.
In 2012 our son played guitar solo while younger brother sang this at his own wedding. The best song of Bruce's chosen by all.
Wow. I love the intimacy here. What a treasure this recording is.
I've heard different members of the band say it in interviews over the years, and a video like this shows it's true: they all love each other.
Played this at my husband's funeral 15 years ago - we fell in love to Bruce's music back in 1987 - let's always make our steps clear - love you always Mark - left this life 31032004. Never forgotten . Mairi xxx
I lost my wife four years ago hopefully with the Lord blessings she will welcome me went to heaven addition for everybody that lost their their soulmate God bless you
This is the Greatest love song ever written.
Nobody delivers the meaning and emotion as powerfully as The Boss.
This is one of his many versions.
I well up every time (72 yr. old male).
Richard Bekkett I'm 22 with an old soul and feel this on a deep level.
Å
I hope you are still listening to this
I so agree this is the best song ever written and Bruce and Patti ROCK it over the top I love the way she sings 💞💞
Truth!
My only Bruce concert, my nephew and I made a huge banner with this song title and a pic of Bruce and Clarence. He didn't play it but when the band came forward for their applause Jake and Bruce pointed at us and chest thumped. Made me cry.
This song reminds me of my beautiful sister who died way too young of cancer...she was the heart of our family......I miss her today and always...it's just such a beautiful song...I never tire of hearing it....and it always makes me cry...
This has allways been the power off Bruce and the E Street Band..the love and commitment they have for eachother..For me , Bruce proved that the most after the Big man (Clarence Clemens) died and he didnt look for the the best sax player he could find, but went for family...now thats pure love!
This song sweetly breaks my heart. I lost the love of my life in the Vietnam War and I'm still am trying to catch up. I so hope he is waiting for me.
It is a beautiful song and the people singing it are beyond great. Every line and every face are awesome. Thanks Boss. Joyce trying to catch up.
I have seen this song live several times, but this is the first time I ever saw a video of the live performance.
It is every bit as good as I hoped it would be.
I am now 68 years old and have lost several loved ones. Now I hope they are waiting for me on the other side.
And yes,
Rock on gurl!! Lost e few good ones myself!!!
I hope they will!
When the big man and nils sing it gives me chills. So powerful.
Uncle Harry, you became an Angel today. Thank you for raising me when mommy died. You 2 were born 11 months apart, truly best friends. I love you. Rest now. Go💜 with Grandma, Grandpa & Mom
I love this so much. I was never expecting Nils to sound so beautiful x
Nils voice on this is just beautiful ❤️❤️❤️
He has a pretty singing voice. Not a typical rocker voice, but it's just right for him. It matches his looks perfectly.
Listen To Valentine by him its a amazing song with amazing vocals and a beautiful guitar solo
The most beautiful love song. This is the meaning of true love. ❤❤
One of Bruce's wisest and most beautiful songs. The song my wife and I danced to at our wedding. And a great guide for us through our wonderful marriage.
love the song, I play it every day
today? ;)
We had it as a reading! So appropriate for a wedding.
what a perfect wedding song
As soon as I heard it, today, I knew it was going to be my wedding song. It's perfect.
One of the greatest songs ever written. Period.
I agree
This is the most beautiful version. I read these lyrics to my husband at our vow renewal for 25 years. We both cried.
My sister read this to us at our wedding this month, it was so emotional. The lyrics are gorgeous in their simple message. I love this version. Nils has the voice of an angel!
I found it. Oh! my goodness_This is a wonderful version of This most beautiful song. Proud to share again... and many times more. Soul of life_ This is a song for the Ages
The saxophone by the big man in the middle takes me to such heights of appreciation ,he has that thing purring ,such a beautiful tender version of this track.
Alan Smart sadly passed away a couple of years ago
Alan Smart k,
Thats what Im thinking. ..Still miss the big man.
I will wait for you!
Alan Smart definitely a song you can feel!!!!!
Went to MSG for their reunion concert. When they did this song it brought tears to my eyes. Each member brought emotion to the lyrics and performance. RIP Big Man.
I lost my son 3 years ago and I always play this on the anniversary of his passing,thank you all for the beautiful words and sounds xxx
Lorena Brown so sorry for your lost I lost my dad 4 years ago he was my best friend our bdays are a day apart May you see your son again
Lorena Brown q
I am so sorry 🥺 I also have 2 Sons… the loss will Be undescribable
Absolute chills when I hear this particular version and recording of this song. The voices are just superbly crisp and haunting at the same time. One of the best harmonies the band has ever done.
My favorite version the one they d>d live at Madison Square garden
What a beautiful combination of voices: 5 people and a saxophone! I love them!
I heard this song for the first time in September of 2020. I found it so moving and touching. Very raw and real. It really spoke to me and brought me to tears.
For everyone who has someone waiting for them, be strong until you're reunited.
I swear, one day I will get all the way through this without choking up. Turns out, today is not that day.
My wish for Robbie and Millissa and Kristen and Fred
Nor for me. Yet again
Stacy M I’m the same
No, you will not.
...bet you don't. I never have.
That’s the most beautiful rendition of that song I ever heard Bruce & Co. sing. Absolute perfection. I had tears in my eyes as I listened, really listened, to the lyrics.
If you are not completely moved by this then you are made of stone. I love music, all types, however I have never in my whole life come across so much emotion in a song before. Beautiful
How good is this
Nils and Clarence pure perfection
I find this song when I wish I had someone to wait for me, and when I want to listen to the most beautiful sax solo I've ever heard, which makes all of these comments as moving as this incredible song.
I was sleeping and this song started playing on my phone. I thought I was dreaming. This was a song that my boyfriend and I used to listen to together before he died of stomachache cancer. I thought I was dreaming when this song came on. I woke up and sat on the side of the bed and wept. Later in the day I called my sister to tell about it. I went to my TH-cam history to share the song with her and it wasn’t there. I have no idea why this song played as I haven’t listened to it since he died five years ago. I can only believe he was sending me a message. Rip Sandy I will always love you.
Nils got my favourite lines for this beautfilul song. And I love it. His voice is so calm and peacfull. Such a talented chap!
We said we'd walk together baby come what may
That come the twilight should we lose our way
If as we're walking a hand should slip free
I'll wait for you
And should I fall behind
Wait for me
We swore we'd travel darlin' side by side
We'd help each other stay in stride
But each lover's steps fall so differently
But I'll wait for you
And if I should fall behind
Wait for me
Now everyone dreams of love lasting and true
Oh, but you and I know what this world can do
So let's make our steps clear that the other may see
I'll wait for you
And if I should fall behind
Wait for me
Now there's a beautiful river in the valley ahead
There 'neath the oak's bough soon we will be wed
Should we lose each other in the shadow of the evening trees
I'll wait for you
Should I fall behind
Wait for me
Darlin' I'll wait for you
Should I fall behind
Wait for me
Yeah, I'll wait for you
Should I fall behind
Wait for me
I'll wait for you
Should I fall behind
Wait for me
Such an absolutely beautiful song. I know my time is not ready for me to be with my beautiful husband who lost his courageous battle on 3rd July 2016. I feel his presence, smell his smell and know he is around me, but the tears and ache in my heart are constant.
Kim Watkins Sounds like you had a great thing. Good luck
What a beautiful collaboration. Years ago, I had regular eight-hour drives through Colorado for work and I would also throw in some Springsteen CDs a couple of times and this song was always one of my absolute favorites. It's just a lovely (man, did I use that word?) song.
Ha, and I've caught myself using it, typing it that is, and thinking the same, man am I'm old lmao, can't imagine actually saying it aloud, as of yet lol
GOD, I love this man, his voice and everything about his kind soul...Forever THE BOSS
I've listened to this every day, sometimes more than once a day, since my husband died in November 2017. Our hands slipped apart but I am sure he is waiting for me. We're still partners, we're still married, it's just that strangers can no longer see him.
I wish I could tell Bruce, Steven, Patti, Nils and Clarence (RIP) how much this video has meant to me.
Peace be with you, I understand I am sure this song links us with our departed
@@allanwilliams1814 Thank you for your kind words.
Thank you for sharing your story. May God grant you peace.
@@johnthorne4093 I have found peace, at least some of the time. Thank you.
That brotherhood is beautiful. The sister is included.
I LOVE THIS SONG !!!! BUT I JUST HEARD IT YESTERDAY !!!! I'M GLAD CLARENCE WAS IN THESE THIS !!!! AMEN !!!!
This song broke my heart as I travelled by train from Scotland to London to to see my brother for the very last time . Beautiful beautiful song by bruce and friends . Rip Simon (sieomen) Coleman x
I absolutely love this song. It makes me feel teary eyed. Been ages since I've listened to this gemstone of a song. This song is so achingly perfect. It encapsulates emotion, sorrow, fragile hope, in a brief moment in time. We all lose our way and falter but take heart in the light, wherever it shines. Healing, love, and self improvement to the world.
I will have this sung to my husband at our intimate wedding in 2016. There is no better expression of love than to know we all fall behind sometimes, and out of love, we should wait for the other to catch back up again. So beautiful.
One of the greatest love songs ever written......
What we all dream of that true connection, with another soul,when words need not spoken, it’s rare but it’s there for everyone if you take the time to listen with silent eyes and open heart . If I should fall behind I’ll wait for you
I was in a coma after a fall and brain surgery. A nurse asked my husband who was favorite singer. Of course, he said Bruce. She brought in cds
and played them for me. That may have helped to support my recovery. I am home now in WVa and doing well. We have even taken in his concert near Philly since then.
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard....So much love in this song.…..made my eyes tear...."thank-you" Bruce Springsteen....you are truly a gem!
Thank you Simply Marilyn........reading what you wrote as I listened to this song made me give in and let the tears come.
That sax solo is so great
That one line with Patti and Nils..GAHH! then Clarence's sax...like butter.
'I'm sitting beside my love of 53 years in his last hours. I'm playing "our" songs (of which there are many) for him and kissing his head and rubbing his shoulders. He woke up briefly when this came on. Thank you, Bruce & Co. Tell Clarence that Ken's coming soon. . . and we say Thank You for all the good times.
Dear Patch you were blessed to have 53 years
@@allanwilliams1814 Believe me, I know how very lucky I have been. No sorrow, jusr gratitude.
I want this played at my funeral, truthfully. This, and Bonnie Raitt singing 'Diming of the Day'. Beautiful. I'm not planning to pop off anytime soon. Just want my ol' man to know. Oh, and I want to go in my own bed, after a right good night out, and no pain. Right. That's sorted then!
Unbelievable emotion for one of my favourite Springsteen Songs.
The last song my love had posted, before he lost his life on our last trip abroad. Til vi møtes igjen, min kjære ❤
I first saw Nils way back in 77 as my boyfriend loved the way he’d swung his guitar around n still play it. Tom Petty n the Heartbreakers were his backing band. This is an amazing version of If I should fall behind. Brings tears to my eyes.
Whose watching and listening to this beautiful music on November 17,2019? I remember back in high school,my writer’s craft teacher always play this song every single day. We all sat and had 5 minutes of silence while enjoying this. I miss those times
This is right up there with The Beatles, Let it Be. Such a moving, powerful, yet simple song that stirs me to my soul.
Had no idea Springsteen would write a love song this touching and beautiful. Just heard Faith Hill's cover on 1999's "Breathe." Wow. She brought it to life and brought tears - of joy - to my eyes. Thanks for posting.
My daughter sang this at her sister's wedding. I had no idea it was arranged. I completely lost it 😭. But so beautiful ❤.
Great to see the Big man. Miss him so.
this is literally the most incredible thing I've ever heard
+Harley McKenzie I have not encountered another song that talks of human relationship as it should be. this song has moved me to my very core and has caused me to look at my life as never before.change is in the works.
+angus muir yesss
Great song, but check out Paul Carracks version. Much better.
+angus muir - that's part of the band's allure and Bruce's expert guidance. He's the quiet genius of my generation, and so many others. We wait, we hope, we love.
😇😇🎸🎸👑👑 tue,,Boss " ,the best 👑👑💙
This just replaced "I'm on Fire" as my favorite Bruce/E Street Band song. The complement of different singers really make it special. Clarence one the saxophone puts it on a whole nother level
I've watched this video a few times and when I hear Clarences voice, I always wish he had sung more often. He has such a rich, beautiful voice.
When Tim McGraw did a guest host gig on Sirius, he talked about his wife, Faith Hill covering this song. He said one day she got a note from Bruce in the mail, telling her how beautiful it was. McGraw is a huge fan and was so excited that it was a hand addressed, licked stamp and handwritten letter. He said he was more insanely happy than Faith was. He also talked about them going to a show and being taken back to meet Bruce. He wasn't in the room but when he came in, Bruce and Faith talked like old friends and McGraw just stood there and didn't say a word. He said he was so afraid he'd say something stupid or call him "The Boss". He was really funny.
In the car with my sister once, the song came on (Faiths version) and my sister said "omg, I love this song". When I realized what it was I told her Bruce had written it. She was stunned and apparently didn't appreciate Bruce or his writing capabilities much. She sputtered "you're kidding!?"
Some people never get it. Bruce is a genius. A poet, musician of many instruments, and largely self taught in many things. ❤
Just special like Bruce 👌
This song means so much to me. Lost my NYC husband suddenly April 2022. I look at his picture when I sing this to him. I'm in Ireland 🇮🇪. Missed so much. 💖💔❤💔
The group dynamic and blatant SOUL of the band members is stunningly beautiful and I can only imagine the feeling Bruce and Patti share, PERIOD, but especially during this performance, how awesome it must be to share and participate in the making of music like this with the person who you share your life with. Outstanding. All band members are stunning
some songs can bring a tear to my eye...this one just makes me cry, it's so damn special.
I just heard about this song today, I was watching CSI: NY , this episode was the memorial of the 9/11 attack. I cried all over again, for every fire fighter, every policeman every individual that was lost. It was so touching, emotional and even after all this years its sad to know that there's a little not who would never see his father again, there's a man who still has the movie tickets he bought for him and his lady, but she never came back home. I love this song even more because, it makes me understand that staying in love holds even more value. Love it!
Kills me every time. It just makes me cry. Pure beauty and emotion. To me that's what music is about. Bruce has put this to a video which adds another dimension.
If I listened to this a million times it wouldn't be enough 💜
I agree! A million times still wouldn't be enough!
agreed, from, Edinburgh, SCOTLAND
But would they want to sing the same song to you over and over for a life time
I absolutely love this song its had such an impact on my emotions and love for good music I fucking love it oosshh
@@tonybruce4411 👍👍👍👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
First time I have heard this song. It is a great showcase of how talented Bruce and the entire "E" Street band was. These types of melodies are lost in today's music.
they truly are an example of why this world is full of gods wonders and beauties..goosebumps..
This was the first time I've ever heard this song as well
Tears are rolling down my cheeks.....
Beautiful Song !!!!!
Rex Albright don’t be silly
"was"?
@@markkelly1860 - nothing sounds more stupid then “our music was good! Today is crap” - congratulations! You’ve just become your parents talking about how Benny Goodman was REAL music.
Ich weiß nicht wie man beschreiben kann, wie unfassbar kreativ und wertvoll etwas ist oder was Worte bedeuten können - neither in German nor in English. Es ist einfach saugut. So I'll just say thank you for that. Danke!
This is such a beautiful touching song with awesome video...I would love to see them play this in live concert someday... I can only dream and hope that will happen. L. Burka
Another fine work of art by The Boss and the E street band, This is warm and somewhat sad as Clarence has fell behind. RIP Big Man we miss you. And as for Stevie, you should sing more often. I love you all, keep up the good work.
Stevie is great, but you get to hear him a lot more than Nils as he comes to the mic to sing with Bruce some and his voice stands out. But Nils...what a voice!
Great such emotion
First time having listened to such an awesome piece of craft....man, I could have used this in the last 10 years in attempting to keep the marriage steered off of the rocks. Looking forward to meeting the BOSS in person.
I heard this song for the first time ever tonight at the Lyric Theater in St. Paul Va. It was sung by Linda and Robin Williams. Requested by my son Alex on behalf of my wife Kim. Many of us in tears. A beautiful song. My new favorite now too. Thanks to everyone and everything that has happened to lead me to this 🙏
Heard this song in 2003 The Rising at Giants Stadium. Was instantly crushed by the song (in a good way) and have always loved it. As I listen to it, again, for the thousandth? time, tears well in my eyes - especially as the Big Man plays and sings.I feel so privileged to have lived during the years that Bruce Springsteen graced the earth with his music and lyrics.
forever missing the big man. Rest easy Clarence
Yeah, many people do...
This song touches me in a very special way...This is the best version of this song in my opinion. I have lost many loved ones.
I just stumbled upon this song. Dad passed away 1/9/2019.... the common bond we have with each other.... I don't call it Grief anymore.... Love you and miss you Dad ... thanks for always being there when I fell behind...
This is Bruce and the fantastic E-Street Band!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇨🇭
My best friend's wife had the chorus engraved on his stone after he passed away unexpectedly. Bruce and the band will always live on in countless ways.
Despite the unequivocal and electric power that the boss exhibits on stage, this artist is capable of producing the softest. In this version, you can hear different voices pouring their heart out from the powerful yet sensitive, the raucous yet emotional, soft yet sturdy, silky yet sustained, all the way to the deep velvety voice of the big man and his magical saxophone.
A very introspective and meditative piece of music (or should I say peace of music) that is suitable for any altar of love. This could be a love between a man and a woman, parent and child, siblings, friends, or between Man and God. It evokes the unity and reciprocity between two beings. One for the other, and back: I’ll wait for you/ And should I fall behind/ Wait for me. People go to church, temple, mosque or to any other holy shrine to pray, accompanied by some sort of music to help them reach a pensive state. Try this. It may help you get there faster.
My close friend’s Dad passed from a heart issue while they played their usual weekend basketball game together. All of us that were friends with his son went to his funeral at that very basketball court and they played this song. It literally destroyed me... I’ll never forget it for the rest of my life. Later on, my friend met Bruce and told him about his dad (who was also a huge fan). Bruce Hugged him, told him he loved him and that he was sorry for his loss. People DO care. Love without fear. Smile everyday. Say what you feel. Never regret. LIVE.
We had this sung during our wedding ceremony. Means as much now as it did 15 years ago. Miss you Clarence.
Watched his Madison Square Garden concert from 2009 on TV last night and he ended with this most beautiful of all songs. Will be played when I leave this earth.
+Debbie Dancer that version of this song breaks me down... so amazing
