    I recently saw Glen Hansard sing this song live in concert. He puts his whole soul into every second of this song. It is absolutely one of my favorite songs, from any artist, any genre, any generation. This is what true songwriting is at its very best. I love this music.

      I just found your comment and at first I thought it's too old, but 7 years ago is also the only time I saw Glen live. How time passes, it feels like 2-3 years ago. I have so many strong memories from that concert in Antwerp.
      I wanted to say it's not only this song, Glen Hansard is one of those artists who pour every bit of their souls in their performances. There was not a single moment during the concert that he (and the band) were not fully committed. In terms of musical performance, appreciation for the audience, and most importantly, raw emotion in every lyric.

    Glen wrote this for his Mom from her perspective...because he grew up seeing his parents fight and it was a struggle. Amazing song and performance.

    Even though this song brings me to tears; it heals me in some way. His voice sheds a light on the broken side of my heart. I've learned to let it go but like the long day it lasts and every hour, every minute, every second...it seriously takes forever. It's amazing how a song can do this to you. I don't know how to even begin to explain my massive love for Glen.

    Love is gonna find you again
    Love is gonna find you, you better be ready then
    You been kneelin' in the dark for far too long
    You've been waitin' for that spark, but it hasn't come
    Well I'm callin' to you, please, get off the floor
    A good heart will find you again
    A good heart will find you, just be ready then
    Tethered to a bird of sorrow
    A voice that's buried in the hollow
    You've given over to self-deceivin'
    Your prostrate bowed would not be leavin'
    You've squandered more than you could borrow
    You've bet your joys on all tomorrows
    For the hope of some returnin'
    While everything around just burnin'
    Come on, we gotta get out, get out of this mess we made
    And still for all our talk, we're both so afraid
    Will we leave this up to chance, like we do everything?
    Love is gonna find us again
    Love is gonna find us, we gotta be ready then
    Tethered to a bird of sorrow
    A voice that's buried in the hollow
    You've given over to self-deceivin'
    Your prostrate bowed would not be leavin'
    You've squandered more than you could borrow
    You've bet your joys on all tomorrows
    For the hope of some returnin'
    While everything around you's burnin'
    But I'm not leavin' you yet
    I'm not leavin' you yet
    I'm not leavin'
    I'm not leavin', yeah, yeah
    I'm not leavin'
    I'm not leavin', yeah, yeah
    I'm hangin' on
    Hangin' on
    What's gonna come?
    I'm hangin' on now
    Hangin' on, hangin' on, hangin' on
    Hangin' on, hangin' on, hangin' on
    With the faithful
    With the faithful
    I'm hangin' on
