You are so right!!! James Morrison is an awesome singer, a great performer and his concerts are makes you completly overwhelmed!! I've cried, I've laughed, i've felted so many things listening to him
Wow... that´s a good version of that song... better than the original.. Some people in here say it´s Nelly Furtado to blame , but it´s not. (my opinion of course.) The original version is too fast, and crowdy with studio "bells & whistles", for the meaning of the lyrics to get trough. Here it gets through and you understand the song better.. This is also "acoustic", where James Morrison is great master at.. as seen here on TH-cam, where he performs, i think all his songs on acoustic guitar. raw and simple, still sounds awesome! (they are not many who can take that category as well as he.) My conclusion; Not the singing so much to blame, but here you get minimum of background music, still so spot on to fill everything without interrupting with the vocals, this is to be listened to in good sound to get all the details. 2 thumbs up! (of course not gonna argue about this... just my 5 cents.) ;)
Let me hold you For the last time It's the last chance to feel again But you broke me Now I can't feel anything When I love you It's so untrue I can't even convince myself When I'm speaking It's the voice of someone else Oh it tears me up I try to hold on, but it hurts too much I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay You can't play on broken strings You can't feel anything that your heart don't want to feel I can't tell you something that ain't real Oh the truth hurts And lies worse How can I give anymore When I love you a little less than before Oh what are we doing We are turning into dust Playing house in the ruins of us Running back through the fire When there's nothing left to save It's like chasing the very last train When it's too late (too late) Oh it tears me up I try to hold on, but it hurts too much I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay You can't play on broken strings You can't feel anything that your heart don't want to feel I can't tell you something that ain't real Well the truth hurts And lies worse How can I give anymore When I love you a little less than before But we're running through the fire When there's nothing left to save It's like chasing the very last train When we both know it's too late (too late) You can't play on broken strings You can't feel anything that your heart don't want to feel I can't tell you something that ain't real Well truth hurts And lies worse How can I give anymore When I love you a little less than before (Well you know that I love you a little less than before) Let me hold you for the last time It's the last chance to feel again
Oh how this song used to make me cry my eyes out and then it was easier to listen to and now it tears at my heart again. I love this song but had to listen to it again!!
Sometimes u hear a song and it's as if the artist has seen into ur soul and is singing about a part of ur life,and this is one of them songs for me.Amazing and so much better than the version he did with Nelly.He's just got so much soul.
Hi I know this is a year old comment, but only two instruments have been used in this verison. That being an acoustic guitar and piano. Thus rendering it an acoustic version of the song due to the lack of electric instruments (unless you really wanna be picky and say that the microphone and soundcard is an electric instrument).
Still love my past. Still love my past. Still love my past. Quick recovery. Waiting you at the NOW. 2016.01.25. 5.05 Monday. Give me life. Share me with ME. Please. Care for me.
A voice that no one can ever mimic. a one of a kind. Simply Beautiful? Who ever dislikes him, doesnt know real music. So Simple. So perfect.
Simply gorgeous I'm obsessed with this song!❤
You are so right!!!

This is some of the best vocals I've ever heard from James Morrison. Stunning, really really amazing!
Let me hold you
For the last time
It's the last chance to feel again
But you broke me
Now I can't feel anything
When I love you
It's so untrue
I can't even convince myself
When I'm speaking
It's the voice of someone else
Oh it tears me up
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything that your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Oh the truth hurts
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before
Oh what are we doing
We are turning into dust
Playing house in the ruins of us
Running back through the fire
When there's nothing left to save
It's like chasing the very last train
When it's too late (too late)
Oh it tears me up
I try to hold on, but it hurts too much
I try to forgive, but it's not enough to make it all okay
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything that your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Well the truth hurts
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before
But we're running through the fire
When there's nothing left to save
It's like chasing the very last train
When we both know it's too late (too late)
You can't play on broken strings
You can't feel anything that your heart don't want to feel
I can't tell you something that ain't real
Well truth hurts
And lies worse
How can I give anymore
When I love you a little less than before
(Well you know that I love you a little less than before)
Let me hold you for the last time
It's the last chance to feel again

Didn't know this existed until now. I just fell in love with this song even more
Why did I just missed five years before I hear this song? I love this! I just played it like the tenth time now.
This song is perfect, just like this. Love it.

That awkward moment when the acoustic cover is better than the original.....
not akward babe , aulways acoutic version looks more powerfull!:)
Love this cover
Jamie Lindsay That's something you will experience a lot when you're listening to James Morrison ^-^
Jamie Lindsay That awkward moment when you find a comment trying to be funny but you didn't laugh.
Again, That Awkward moment when you try to make a valid point by pissing all over the fact making yourself a hypocrite.
Define James Morrison: The one main man who is doing Britain proud
Definitely a much better version than the recorded version,in my opinion every artist should just record acoustic albums
This is way better than the duet! I wanna play this on piano but can't find the sheets..it's really beautiful :)
Sometimes u hear a song and it's as if the artist has seen into ur soul and is singing about a part of ur life,and this is one of them songs for me.Amazing and so much better than the version he did with Nelly.He's just got so much soul.
Just feel this song so hard. :l
So, he spreads that effect on more people ehehe
He's so amazing!!! It's impossible not love him! :)
Have u seen him live?
carai ... top essa versão em !!
Just.... Wow
What an actually amazing song :) I agree better with him doing it solo. The words in this are out of this world.
The truth hurts, the lies worse !
We've got/ Hearts that want to love I need to get back but there's nowhere ever feels this safe We've got hearts taht lift us up
Nelly's annoying voice really devastated the song, now it's perfect!
brilliant..
2018!!!!

you can always try to catch the last train
nice song...
Superb
YOU CAN'T PLAY ON BROKEN STRINGS!
on hell of a sentence
Nice lyrics..

2019?
I think Nelly Furtardo ruined the duet, her voice just isn't right for this song
so goddamn true I cant help but turn it off when she comes in
so fookin true!
Her voice isn´r right for anyone. Just like JB´s. I want to kill myself every time I have to listen to them. Urgh
One of the best Songs ever👍👍👍
I Love the Acoustic album😍😍😍
Yiipie, I was the 300th "like"
💛💜💜💚💜💜💛
Please try it…
This song (even better in acoustic) has an Adele sound to it. When is a cover from her?
wow :3
@OomphProductions

I love this song so much everyday i heard as i fall in love with this girl but I am too afraid to talk to her.

i agree wit u Oomph Productions...hes beter my himself..
@OomphProductions
Right? For some reason it just sounded like her part was...forced...or that they weren't listening to the same background music.
No I haven't seen him live in person but I REALLY WANT TO but mum can't drive and we don't have a car... :(
