When you want someone you ABSOLUTELY can't have. You fill your life and time with friends and family. Job, church, trips, hobbies, reading and music. Physical activity. NOTHING can change how you feel. Sigh. Getting knocked sideways.
This is so emotional. He's singing it with such a hearts passion. The song itself is just amazing. Simpe and effective. Quiet and melodic. It's definitely his sweet spot! Way to go, Mr. Cope!
I accidentally just stumbled upon this song and artist. Wow. This song and performance wrecked me. Got me right in the feels. Reminded me of my first real love break-up. The hopelessness. The pain. All of it. Just wow.
I have recently been introduced to Citizen Cope thru a beautiful woman and close friend...I will think of her when I hear them from this day forward. Tooty
You know it ain't easy For these thoughts here to leave me There's no words to describe it In French or in English 'Cause, diamonds they fade And flowers they bloom And I'm telling you These feelings won't go away They've been knockin' me sideways They've been knockin' me out, babe Whenever you come around me These feelings won't go away They've been knockin' me sideways I keep thinking in a moment that Time will take them away But these feelings won't go away But these feelings won't go away It ain't easy For these thoughts here to leave me There're no words to describe it In French or in English 'Cause diamonds they fade (diamonds they fade) And flowers they bloom (flowers they bloom) And I'm telling you These feelings won't go away They've been knockin' me sideways They've been knockin' me out, babe Whenever you come around me These feelings won't go away They've been knockin' me sideways I keep thinking in a moment that Time will take them away These feelings won't go away They've been knockin' me sideways I keep thinking in a moment that Time will take them away These feelings won't go away These feelings won't go away But diamonds they fade And flowers they bloom And I'm telling you I'm telling you Diamonds they fade Flowers they bloom (flowers they bloom) I'm telling you I'm telling you These feelings won't go away They've been knockin' me sideways They've been knockin' me out, babe Whenever you come around me These feelings won't go away They've been knockin' me sideways I keep thinking in a moment that Time will take them away These feelings won't go away They've been knockin' me sideways I keep thinking in a moment that Time will take them away But these feelings won't go away These feelings won't go away, no These feelings won't go away These feelings won't go away
Can't stop listening to this song....pretty impressive he sang the whole thing with just his bottom lip! Sorry... Had to. I know everyone was thinking it and have been afraid to say it. YOUR WELCOME!
Take it anyway you like....after all is said and done, whatever you are given in life -you must deal with you. Your true self will stay. Whether they are feelings or thoughts...the moment the real you enters there is no turning away. This is my take TODAY on this song. BECAUSE -"You know it ain't easy; For these thoughts here to leave me; There's no words to describe it; In French or in English...(Mental Health is Mental Wealth - stop prescribing and start singing this song)
after listening to a few of his acoustics i have come to the opinion that he doesnt know how to play guitar. or is stoned or something. or forgot the rhythms of all his songs.
Technically he's not very great. He loses his strum rhythm pretty quickly into the song. What he lacks in that department he more than makes up for with raw emotion.
+ainalem ritchie I really appreciate your concern. I guess a sense of nurture is just natural for all women. In fact you're kind of turning me on to be honest. Is the feeling mutual or is this tent that I've pitched in my pants gonna have to disassemble itself? What are you wearing?
