    My now ex wife introduced me to this group when we first met, she loved "My best girl" and played it constantly. Ironic, going through our divorce I listened to this group more and more and memorized the lyrics to their songs trying to deal with life and the hole in my life while staring at the bottom of a never ending empty bottle. Its like Bens lyrics express a side to everyone, everything pent up inside that you either can't or won't let out, and things get better. Not necessarily easier, but better. And if you keep chugging along, one day you will find that you accomplished things you never thought you would actually achieve while your life went on.

      It does get better and it does get worse. I guess you just take each part of those and build your life, each step away and toward. Just found this band at a step for me. That’s the grace of music. It gives us that chance. Good graces to you.

      Heartbreakingly amazing story. Shows lyric genius. And he says "I was never that good at the words anyway"

    Lucero is so under rated its sad.

    • @singadeplorable
      @singadeplorable 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah but maybe that's what keeps them cool. Sadly, look at Lucinda Williams, The Hold Steady and Frank Turner. True gems.

    • @kreed1004

    There has never been music like this before, and when lucero is gone, there will never be music like this again. I try to catch them live as much as I can. They are something special

    I hear your name when the winds just right. That is so haunting and perfect.

  • @lukemei5ter

    Lucero is a real band. Real friendships. And real music. They make me feel real again. It isn't the drama or the sad stuff, its the way they seem to make music so breathtaking and sincere. Its great

  • @babybutcher6308

    I was strung out and had lost my mind last year, when I decided to get clean and go home to my family this song always got me through the rough patches. It's very soothing.

  • @joetompkins4523
    @joetompkins4523 7 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    I see your face when I close my eyes.
    I hear your name when the wind's just right.
    The setting sun is gone once more.
    Each night is worse than the night before.
    Now I can't stand to leave you, I can't take the weight of this world on my own.
    And I don't know what I'll do, I don't think that I can make it all alone.
    They say all can heal with time
    That don't mean much to me tonight
    Like city streets your eyes shine
    And I'm lost out here with the losing kind
    And I can't stand to leave you I can't take the weight of this world on my own.
    I don't know what I'll do I don't think that I can make it all alone
    Yes, I've felt this kinda pain. A hole straight through my chest.
    Yes, I've felt this kinda pain. Seems now it's all that's left.
    It was always there never far away. Seems now it's all that's left.
    Every song I hear. Your voice sings. The words are clear. Come back to me.
    Come back to me, my only one. Come back to me. Your work is done.
    I can't stand to leave you I can't take the weight of this world on my own.
    And I don't know what I'll do I don't think that I can make it all alone.

    By far the best band around. Ben is unparalleled in his lyrics and vocal expression. If only we could aspire to be half as great. Lucero is literally a class of their own.

    I'm going through a custody battle and when I hear this song all I can think about it losing my daughter and her being somewhere that I can't control. Her bio dad isn't the one doing this, this is my own sister who has wanted this child since conception. I'm not a drug user and she's happy where she is. We struggle but she has everything she needs. I feel so much pain at the thought of her being gone. I can't stand leaving her or being away from her in any way. I've made mistakes but she is my world and I feel so empty without her. I'm pretty sure this song is about a significant other but my perception is, this is about losing someone close and she's the closest thing I have.
