Don't ever feel ashamed to cry tears for anything in this life that moves you ... That it what makes you human.. Remembrance and tears are always the two Parents we all live with.
Wow. Just wow.David Gray is my all-time favourite artist, and I have to say that 'Shine' is probably my favourite track of his. What a talent this man has.
In 2004 my daughter was getting her Journalism degree from Amarillo Jr College and she went to a David Gray concert and got to interview him for the school newspaper. She played a bit of his music for me that she had recorded. That night we both became fans and was a bonding moment for her and I. Love David Grays music. Love you Jessica.
i could just sit here and cry , listening to this song i miss him so much ..........but who know's what's waiting in the wing's of time!!!!........we gonna go were we can shine
Just stumbled across this song, I've always liked David, but never bought any of his music, but my gosh, this is just an incredibly moving song, I echo the comments left on here, David, you are a true musical genius, no. Your a musical poet sir, currently I am suffering with mental health issues, and to listen to you sing such a beautiful song just fills my heart with joy, thank you sir. XX
My first girlfriend broke up with me and sent me this song. I was madly in love. (First one hits) the maturity of this song writing is insane. I believe David gray was in early 20s when he wrote this. What a beautiful, hopeful, crushing passing note. So much hope for the future. Cutting for the present. Respect for the past
Some songs can encompass everything that needs to be said. This song has helped me get though many loss of close friends and family through the years and given me strength to keep on. God bless you David.
I can see it in your eyes What I know in my heart is true That our love it has faded Like the summer run through So we'll walk down the shoreline One last time together Feel the wind blow our wanderin' hearts Like a feather But who knows what's waiting In the wings of time Dry your eyes We gotta go where we can shine Don't be hiding in sorrow Or clinging to the past With your beauty so precious And the season so fast No matter how cold the horizon appear Or how far the first night When I held you near You gotta rise from these ashes Like a bird of flame Step out of the shadow We've gotta go where we can shine For all that we struggle For all we pretend It don't come down to nothing Except love in the end And ours is a road That is strewn with goodbyes But as it unfolds As it all unwinds Remember your soul is the one thing You just can't compromise Take my hand We're gonna go where we can shine We're gonna go where we can shine We're gonna go where we can shine (and look, and look) Through the windows of midnight Moonfoam and silver
Songs like this change people's lives. The fact he was as young as he was when he wrote it just lends more weight to his brilliance. He'll be remembered in history as a great.
The song Ed Sheeran dreams, wishes, cries wishing he wrote it or could match it...Ed Sheeran is amazing, one in a million, but he can never touch this in a zillion lifetimes.
You've totally nailed it, Bill. 🙏 It's a funny old world... Whilst scrolling through some TH-cam tunes yesterday, a song by Mr Sheeran popped up. It's had been viewed 4.2 BILLION times!! 😱 I truly believe that David is in a league of his own, but in terms of popular music such as Ed - he was probably born 20 years too early.
How lucky am I to have only heard this beauty for the first time this month? It's like buried treasure. I dedicate this ode to the one. My only special one.
I heard this on the radio for the first time today and thought it was a new song. I was actually shocked to learn it's nearly 30 years old. I love it. Thanks to Philly's wxpn for giving this gem to me!
This song represents a moment in time that rests deep in my heart and soul. I can listen to it and it takes me there. Lots of emotions. In memory of my sunshineface.
i grew up listening to my dads "music", hated it till i was old enough to appreciate it, i feel this is the same with Davids music and the generation below me. man i feel old saying that.
I fell in love with this song when it was introduced to me by a woman I loved very much. When that ended, I couldn't even listen to this song. Eventually, I was able to recover...and now I love the song more than ever.
Listening over 20 years after I first heard this song on tape from A Century Ends and knew David to be a genius. What I've learnt from goodbyes is definitely that our souls are the one things we can't compromise. That we meet people for a reason which in my experience is for our soul's to learn and grow and sometimes that's best done apart. Wishing us all great and lasting love 💖🙏
and for all that we struggle for all we pretend you know you know it don't come down to nothing except love in the end....this is so true,but pl strive for wrong things these days,unaware that non of those things they will be able to take with them where ever it is after this life we'll go,but love ,love remains
He has the amazing, and extremely rare, ability of feeling the music rather than writing it... As I listen to his songs I can almost see how they formed in his head before he ever put pen to paper... Such a powerful, sensitive and caring character. Good on ya David lad.
i saw david on july 6, in indianapolis, indiana. he kept his audiance entertained with his music and jokes throughout the concert. he is a very talented singer and i can't wait to see him again!!!
Expression of a great singer singing like the angles of loves faith thank u for never leaving the hope behind us is faith holy kingz let your love shine as this man was not afraid to sing his heart David grey life wouldn't be the same if I'd never heard of this great man legand
I'm just glad in a way he has never really made it in America, he has stuck to his guns with his albums and hasn't changed his sound to suit an American market. Truly an asset this country should be proud of!
My sister introduced me to his music long before he hit the big time ,he used play gigs in Cork city.This is the first song i heard from him,still my favorite
any song that one can relate to....such as this...holds a level above most music. David Gray has quite a few of these amazing songs...honest and emotional.
“Although our love is waning, let us stand by the lone border of the lake once more,” - Yeats, “That our love it has faded, like the summer run through, so we'll walk down the shoreline, one last time together” - Gray
Brilliant! This musician is truly talented and he deserves more attention. The only reason he doesn't release albums very often is because he has a life and family beyond music. I love his music, his voice and beutiful lyrics. He didn't change in quality, He can't and never will lose his talent to write beautiful songs like these.
I just went to his concert on March 5th and let me tell you that he sounds better live than on his album what an amazing concert could be the best one ever. If ever the oportunity comes up go see him he is mezmorizing. " remember your souls the one thing you can't compromise!"
He was reading Yeates when he wrote these lyrics said they filtered into the song. Two people who need to be apart so they can shine. Gives me shivers.
I always remember around 1999-2001 period listening to White Ladder on repeat over and over. That album is incredible. This is his best song though i think. Come to Toronto soon please David
Fengis trust you kept on playing SMILES Welcome to my first funeral song, amongst a few others... David is beyond brilliance How profound knowing OUR LOVE is ETERNAL~
David went out with me for a month -or- so. 39 years ago I was 16 and he was 17. I have only just realised who he is now. He did not talk much. He seemed "different". I made him smile. The way he looked at me will never leave me. I was sad when I realised he was not coming to see me any more. I am watching this video to try to bring it all together. The Dave I knew in 1985, the White Ladder David Gray, and the legend he has become. I have tried to reach out to people I knew in 1985 with no success. He did not talk much. I did not have much of a voice either, when I was 16. 1985- I was sad when I realised he was not coming to see me any more. 2024- I am heartbroken.
I have found someone from 1985, we chatted a lot, he remembers me quite fondly, but doesn't recall Dave. It's good to know it's possible David Gray has 16year old me in his memories, somewhere.
It is my personal opinion that David Gray is the greatest lyricist ever and Shine is a breath taking example of his talent. I especially love the the ending.
I can see it in your eyes What I know in my heart is true That our love it has faded Like the summer run through And we'll walk down the shoreline One last time together Feel the wind blow our wanderin' hearts Like a feather But who nows what's waiting In the wings of time Dry your eyes We gotta go where we can shine Don't be hiding in sorrow Or clinging to the past With your beauty so precious And the season so fast No matter how cold the horizon appear Or how far the first night When I held you near You gotta rise from these ashes Like a bird of flame Take my hand We've gotta go where we can shine For all that we struggle For all we pretend It don't come down to nothing Except love in the end And ours is a road That is strewn with goodbyes But as it unfolds As is all unwinds Remember your soul is the one thing You just can't compromise Step out of the shadow We're gonna go where we can shine We're gonna go where we can shine We're gonna go where we can shine (and look, and look) Through the windows of midnight Moonfoam and silver
One of my favorite songs.I think this is the inspiration-my favorite poem: Ephemera by W.B. Yeats Your eyes that once were never weary of mine Are bowed in sorrow under pendulous lids, Because our love is waning.' And then She: 'Although our love is waning, let us stand By the lone border of the lake once more, Together in that hour of gentleness When the poor tired child, passion, falls asleep. How far away the stars seem, and how far Is our first kiss, and ah, how old my heart!' Pensive they paced along the faded leaves, While slowly he whose hand held hers replied: 'Passion has often worn our wandering hearts.' The woods were round them, and the yellow leaves Fell like faint meteors in the gloom, and once A rabbit old and lame limped down the path; Autumn was over him: and now they stood On the lone border of the lake once more: Turning, he saw that she had thrust dead leaves Gathered in silence, dewy as her eyes, In bosom and hair. 'Ah, do not mourn,' he said, 'That we are tired, for other loves await us; Hate on and love through unrepining hours. Before us lies eternity; our souls Are love, and a continual farewell.'
So I'm listening to one of my favourite David Gray songs, decide to scroll down to the comments and look who I find there...loool Ah, I love the internet. Hello again! ;)
I just went to his concert on March 5th and let me tell you that he sounds better live than on his album what an amazing concert could be the best one ever. If ever the oportunity comes up go see him he is mezmorizing!
I can see it in your eyes What I know in my heart is true That our love it has faded Like the summer run through So we'll walk down the shoreline One last time together Feel the wind blow our wanderin' hearts Like a feather But who knows what's waiting In the wings of time Dry your eyes We gotta go where we can shine Don't be hiding in sorrow Or clinging to the past With your beauty so precious And the season so fast No matter how cold the horizon appear Or how far the first night When I held you near You gotta rise from these ashes Like a bird of flame Step out of the shadow We've gotta go where we can shine For all that we struggle For all we pretend It don't come down to nothing Except love in the end And ours is a road That is strewn with goodbyes But as it unfolds As it all unwinds Remember your soul is the one thing You can't compromise Take my hand We're gonna go where we can shine We're gonna go where we can shine We're gonna go where we can shine
this song is truely amazing i learnt to play this on guitar and it gives me goosebumps even when i play it. when to see him at manchester for the second time in Dec what a awsome concert.
This song played at my cousins wake. This is the first time I’ve been able to listen to this in almost 20 years. Not easy to do either.
God bless bro
Beautiful song. I dig your username. I love that he uses his more natural Welsh accent on these early songs.
Good on you for feeling the fear and doing it anyway.
What an amazing song choice! Hope they’re shining somewhere for you. Sorry for your loss
💪🏽✝️💪🏽❤
I am not ashamed to admit that I wept upon hearing this song for my first time. So beautiful and heartfelt lyrics. David Gray is my all time favorite!
Daniel. Weeping together.
It's no easier a listen in 2020. 😪
It’s the only song to ever bring me to tears
Love this too long song you know this is what I want to do it my son Royal and his mother Lexi pitcher
Don't ever feel ashamed to cry tears for anything in this life that moves you ... That it what makes you human.. Remembrance and tears are always the two Parents we all live with.
Remember your soul is the one thing you can't compromise!! One of the most underrated lyricists in the business.
Absolutely
Love is road strewn with goodbyes
Heard this magnificent song first on Donal Dineen's No Disco, 30 years ago. Loved it then, love it now.
"Remember your soul is the one thing
You can't compromise
Take my hand
We're gonna go where we can shine"
What a line
Wow. Just wow.David Gray is my all-time favourite artist, and I have to say that 'Shine' is probably my favourite track of his. What a talent this man has.
David Gray is a modern day Van Morrison. Amazing lyrics and emotion in this song.
Alan Eisenberg great call
In 2004 my daughter was getting her Journalism degree from Amarillo Jr College and she went to a David Gray concert and got to interview him for the school newspaper. She played a bit of his music for me that she had recorded. That night we both became fans and was a bonding moment for her and I. Love David Grays music. Love you Jessica.
what an absolutely brilliant song this is
924eightball sad then and still sad now...
Welcome to my first funeral song, amongst a few others...
David is beyond brilliance, how profound knowing OUR LOVE is ETERNAL~
i could just sit here and cry , listening to this song
i miss him so much ..........but who know's what's waiting in the wing's of time!!!!........we gonna go were we can shine
thumbs up x 1 billion! Mr. Gray, u sir, have enriched this life more than i can say. Thank you.
"We're gonna rise from these ashes like a bird of flame"
Tingle down my spine everytime... for me one of his best songs.
Just stumbled across this song, I've always liked David, but never bought any of his music, but my gosh, this is just an incredibly moving song, I echo the comments left on here, David, you are a true musical genius, no. Your a musical poet sir, currently I am suffering with mental health issues, and to listen to you sing such a beautiful song just fills my heart with joy, thank you sir. XX
see him in concert for sure then because in concert this song has only gotten better with age.
I hope anyone reading this gets to go where they can shine in 2022!
Happy New Year xx

I can see it in your eyes
What I know in my heart is true
That our love it has faded
Like the summer run through
So we'll walk down the shoreline
One last time together
Feel the wind blow our wanderin' hearts Like a feather
But who knows what's waiting
In the wings of time
Dry your eyes
We gotta go where we can shine
Don't be hiding in sorrow
Or clinging to the past
With your beauty so precious
And the season so fast
No matter how cold the horizon appear
Or how far the first night
When I held you near
You gotta rise from these ashes
Like a bird of flame
Step out of the shadow
We've gotta go where we can shine
For all that we struggle
For all we pretend
It don't come down to nothing
Except love in the end
And ours is a road
That is strewn with goodbyes
But as it unfolds
As it all unwinds
Remember your soul is the one thing
You just can't compromise
Take my hand
We're gonna go where we can shine
We're gonna go where we can shine
We're gonna go where we can shine
(and look, and look)
Through the windows of midnight
Moonfoam and silver
rasp berry Almost...good try though.
Thank you for putting the lyrics. Thank you to David Gray
Thank you
Thank you David Gray for your talent that you graciously share w/ us. We are better for that.
Every love fades away at a certain time, and this song is the perfect way to honor that love and say goodbay. Love ur lyrics David G💕
This man is fabulous and this is one of the greatest songs ever!.
Walking around Sydney at night with this song as company...beautiful
Songs like this change people's lives. The fact he was as young as he was when he wrote it just lends more weight to his brilliance. He'll be remembered in history as a great.
Thanks for playing this for me and Caroline in Dublin in 2022. Much love.
First time I heard this today.. I lead a sheltered life.. This is amazing
The song Ed Sheeran dreams, wishes, cries wishing he wrote it or could match it...Ed Sheeran is amazing, one in a million, but he can never touch this in a zillion lifetimes.

Good god! This man's voice is one of the most underrated voices in music.
That is the kind of music I have been looking for. First time I heard this and first time I heard of this singer.
i grew up listening to my dads "music", hated it till i was old enough to appreciate it, i feel this is the same with Davids music and the generation below me. man i feel old saying that.
AYE WOULD NEVER COMPROMISE MY SOUL… AYE WOULD NEVER GAMBLE WITH THE MOST VALUABLE THING IN THE WORLD
I fell in love with this song when it was introduced to me by a woman I loved very much. When that ended, I couldn't even listen to this song. Eventually, I was able to recover...and now I love the song more than ever.

If I started each day with this song I’d be a better person. This man touches my soul.
At 53 I still melt when I hear his music.
Hope is an encouraging thing.
"Who knows what's waiting on the wings of time"
Shine!!
Heather Hoerschgen indeed shine as such bright hope that light.... the...light ...this only light ...let it light our way .

My stomach physically hurts as I hear this song. I am so overwhelmed: music still exists.
I just love this voice and his beautiful writing. Who doesn't love an Scotsman :)
I think he's from Wales actually, but close enough Lol
He's English am afraid
@@paulmclaughlan7642 Right born in england spent all his life in Wales.
From manchester
He has the amazing, and extremely rare, ability of feeling the music rather than writing it... As I listen to his songs I can almost see how they formed in his head before he ever put pen to paper... Such a powerful, sensitive and caring character. Good on ya David lad.
i saw david on july 6, in indianapolis, indiana. he kept his audiance entertained with his music and jokes throughout the concert. he is a very talented singer and i can't wait to see him again!!!
He has an amazingly brilliant way with words. Blows me away.
To the one that got away,
You'll never see this....and I'm over it now....but it was great while it lasted.
--Me
One of our best living song writers.
Expression of a great singer singing like the angles of loves faith thank u for never leaving the hope behind us is faith holy kingz let your love shine as this man was not afraid to sing his heart David grey life wouldn't be the same if I'd never heard of this great man legand
I love this song. The lyrics are absolutely fantastic.
I'm just glad in a way he has never really made it in America, he has stuck to his guns with his albums and hasn't changed his sound to suit an American market. Truly an asset this country should be proud of!
Simply fantastic. His lyrics just don't have competition from other British artists. Truly brilliant songwriter.
Had to come back and listen to this song again...This man is brilliant. Thanks for posting.
My sister introduced me to his music long before he hit the big time ,he used play gigs in Cork city.This is the first song i heard from him,still my favorite
any song that one can relate to....such as this...holds a level above most music. David Gray has quite a few of these amazing songs...honest and emotional.
This Song has a special meaning to me and someone who lives 5000 miles away and when I listen to it I am almost over whelmed
just a clean acoustic and an outstanding voice,
now thats what you call music from the heart
Favourite song if there is such a thing but have thought so for maybe 8yrs now. Pure Emotion.
Just gets into the deepest part of my soul, so amazing, Love You, David Gray
One of the greatest songs ever written.
“Although our love is waning, let us stand by the lone border of the lake once more,” - Yeats, “That our love it has faded, like the summer run through, so we'll walk down the shoreline, one last time together” - Gray

reminds me of all the good times i had with my grandpa.
I just went to his concert on March 5th and let me tell you that he sounds better live than on his album what an amazing concert could be the best one ever. If ever the oportunity comes up go see him he is mezmorizing. " remember your souls the one thing you can't compromise!"
He was reading Yeates when he wrote these lyrics said they filtered into the song. Two people who need to be apart so they can shine. Gives me shivers.
one of my most favorite songs ever. classic and beautiful.
I needed to hear this song today.
I always remember around 1999-2001 period listening to White Ladder on repeat over and over. That album is incredible. This is his best song though i think. Come to Toronto soon please David
Amazingly beautiful song " Ours is a road that is strewn with goodbyes "
He is simply amazing...isn't he ??? What a singer songwriter eh ?
This man changed my life. I'll always love him.
This song was the reason why I bought me a guitar and learned to play it on my own autodidactilly. Still my No.1 Song ever.
Fengis trust you kept on playing SMILES
Welcome to my first funeral song, amongst a few others...
David is beyond brilliance
How profound knowing OUR LOVE is ETERNAL~
David went out with me for a month -or- so. 39 years ago I was 16 and he was 17. I have only just realised who he is now. He did not talk much. He seemed "different". I made him smile. The way he looked at me will never leave me. I was sad when I realised he was not coming to see me any more.
I am watching this video to try to bring it all together. The Dave I knew in 1985, the White Ladder David Gray, and the legend he has become.
I have tried to reach out to people I knew in 1985 with no success.
He did not talk much. I did not have much of a voice either, when I was 16.
1985- I was sad when I realised he was not coming to see me any more.
2024- I am heartbroken.
I have found someone from 1985, we chatted a lot, he remembers me quite fondly, but doesn't recall Dave. It's good to know it's possible David Gray has 16year old me in his memories, somewhere.
Have to agree for me probably the song ever sung and written , legend.
Shine! For all that we struggle for all we pretend! We’re going to go where we can Shine! ♥️
It is my personal opinion that David Gray is the greatest lyricist ever and Shine is a breath taking example of his talent. I especially love the the ending.
best song in the whole world by far
I can see it in your eyes
What I know in my heart is true
That our love it has faded
Like the summer run through
And we'll walk down the shoreline
One last time together
Feel the wind blow our wanderin' hearts
Like a feather
But who nows what's waiting
In the wings of time
Dry your eyes
We gotta go where we can shine
Don't be hiding in sorrow
Or clinging to the past
With your beauty so precious
And the season so fast
No matter how cold the horizon appear
Or how far the first night
When I held you near
You gotta rise from these ashes
Like a bird of flame
Take my hand
We've gotta go where we can shine
For all that we struggle
For all we pretend
It don't come down to nothing
Except love in the end
And ours is a road
That is strewn with goodbyes
But as it unfolds
As is all unwinds
Remember your soul is the one thing
You just can't compromise
Step out of the shadow
We're gonna go where we can shine
We're gonna go where we can shine
We're gonna go where we can shine
(and look, and look)
Through the windows of midnight
Moonfoam and silver
this song is amazing and helping me cope with my girl who's just not available now, hope we will shine in the end
He has such talent and his music has such an emotional effect :')
After all these years, its still amazing.
Thank you missGriffin for this fine share. Quite a gem! Peace♥
one of the greatest songs out there in the universe. Indescribably wonderful
This is hands down my favourite by David Gray!!
Who's still listening to this in march 2022 😉😉😉
The best song ever written...past, present, future...ever
Sempre bellissima. "Ricorda: la tua anima è l'unica cosa che non puoi compromettere". Bello e vero.
One of my favorite songs.I think this is the inspiration-my favorite poem:
Ephemera by W.B. Yeats
Your eyes that once were never weary of mine
Are bowed in sorrow under pendulous lids,
Because our love is waning.'
And then She:
'Although our love is waning, let us stand
By the lone border of the lake once more,
Together in that hour of gentleness
When the poor tired child, passion, falls asleep.
How far away the stars seem, and how far
Is our first kiss, and ah, how old my heart!'
Pensive they paced along the faded leaves,
While slowly he whose hand held hers replied:
'Passion has often worn our wandering hearts.'
The woods were round them, and the yellow leaves
Fell like faint meteors in the gloom, and once
A rabbit old and lame limped down the path;
Autumn was over him: and now they stood
On the lone border of the lake once more:
Turning, he saw that she had thrust dead leaves
Gathered in silence, dewy as her eyes,
In bosom and hair.
'Ah, do not mourn,' he said,
'That we are tired, for other loves await us;
Hate on and love through unrepining hours.
Before us lies eternity; our souls
Are love, and a continual farewell.'
I cannot do anything but love this man and his journey!
IF THE WHOLE WORLD LOSES SENSE ~ MY MIND WILL REMAIN FIXED
So I'm listening to one of my favourite David Gray songs, decide to scroll down to the comments and look who I find there...loool Ah, I love the internet. Hello again! ;)
One of his most beautiful songs
I'll second you on that one. Broke up with my GF a couple of weeks ago and this song has been helpful.
I just went to his concert on March 5th and let me tell you that he sounds better live than on his album what an amazing concert could be the best one ever. If ever the oportunity comes up go see him he is mezmorizing!
I can see it in your eyes
What I know in my heart is true
That our love it has faded
Like the summer run through
So we'll walk down the shoreline
One last time together
Feel the wind blow our wanderin' hearts
Like a feather
But who knows what's waiting
In the wings of time
Dry your eyes
We gotta go where we can shine
Don't be hiding in sorrow
Or clinging to the past
With your beauty so precious
And the season so fast
No matter how cold the horizon appear
Or how far the first night
When I held you near
You gotta rise from these ashes
Like a bird of flame
Step out of the shadow
We've gotta go where we can shine
For all that we struggle
For all we pretend
It don't come down to nothing
Except love in the end
And ours is a road
That is strewn with goodbyes
But as it unfolds
As it all unwinds
Remember your soul is the one thing
You can't compromise
Take my hand
We're gonna go where we can shine
We're gonna go where we can shine
We're gonna go where we can shine
Makes my heart cry! Overbearingly emotional. Too much that you cant contain it.
What a song! Some of the finest lyrics you'll ever hear!
With all he has done,this is timeless.
Stunning... 1993 was it. Top man Davo
this song is truely amazing i learnt to play this on guitar and it gives me goosebumps even when i play it.
when to see him at manchester for the second time in Dec what a awsome concert.
