This song truly helped me when I lost my wife a few years back. This is the first time I've listened to it since my terminal brain cancer diagnosis last year. Just had my second surgery and recovering at home. Found this song again and it still soothes my soul. I'll be seeing my baby again soon. I hate it for my mother. I'll be the 2nd son she'll see buried and now my father has stage 4 lung cancer. Never smoked. ..when it rains , right ? Let your loved ones know how you feel, folks. Pray for my mother. ..
Was blessed to be invited to the recording of this AOL session. About 30 of us called by The Warehouse, 3pm on a weekday, Robert Lang Studios, sat on the floor silently until we were told we could applaud. Such a surreal experience, will never forget it!
Am only 12 years old and I am in love with Dave's songs,. When ever I have a bad day I love to listen to his music. I had my mother take me to see Dave live in Detroit, best show ever. I really hope that dave keeps doing why he's doing
This song is QUITE special, the tenderness, sadness and beauty all at one time are amazing... I also lost the love of my life and will never be the same, after her there is simply no other woman. The lines "I could never love again as much as I loved you" & "Take my eyes take my heart I need them no more, if never again they fall upon the one I so adore" are amazing. And say exactly how I feel
I love Dave Matthews Band because after I listen to them when my heart is broken, I still want to fall in love again.❤️ I just saw them in concert over July 4th weekend❤️
It’s been a slow burn for me to like Dave Mathew’s, I like the songs such as this one that doesn’t necessarily follow the tone and style of his other music. I’m getting there. I work with a rabid Matthews fan.
You spend so much time becoming jaded by the darkness in humanity that it's refreshing to see the realness and depth of the human experience. I think we all take solace knowing that at our lowest points - when we feel the most alone - we're never really alone.
+jennifer elledge I am so sorry for your loss. You hang in there and you will see her again one day when you reach the other side. I will keep you in my prayers.
DMs ability to script the human element is unreal and a gift. Beautifully scripted the pain and humanity of the moment of sitting there needing one more to get thru and get “over” so you can move on. Thank you.
I dont know why but it makes me think of losing my service dog last year. Haven't had the heart to get another one. He was my best friend for 12 years. Miss him dearly.
No comments for awhile. Lamenting the loss of my beautiful daughter Autumn Alethea 30yrs old 02-09-2016.Heroin overdose. She was bigger than this life. God how I miss my baby. We did a lot of driving and listening to DMB. Her suffering is over. Rest in Jesus now your finally home. I'll see you soon. Until then I'll keep listening and praying my Grace is not gone because we sure need it. But I love this song. At timed it does feel like Grace is gone. Blessed are they that mourn for they will be comforted. Thank. you all for sharing your hearts. And thank you Dave Matthews for a wonderful song
So sorry for your loss. I lost my first love to a heroin overdose a few years ago. Im in tears as I write this. I share your pain. They are at peace now. Much love to you!
Hell yeah he is! He’s helped me in my life journey in more ways than one. I’m hoping to make the long trek from my home in Delaware to The Gorge camp out this year. 🤙🏻
I have loved Dave since around 98 or so. Every year I go back into a hard Dave phase. So good. I don't understand the haters. I think the only wrong with it is that its too damn good.
I love how this song can be interpreted literally as a loss of a love one and it can be interpreted figuratively that someone has fall so low that they've lost their "grace" and they know it. To anyone reading this, if you are walking through Hell, keep walking.
Take my heart, take my eyes, Cause I'll need them no more. If never again they'll fall upon, The one I so adore. amazing...he has some of the BEST lyrics ever written..
Just thought of this song today and had to see this. One of the most touching and beautiful songs ever written. If this didn't touch me every time I'd know I needed a therapist.
This song reminds me how the tragic aspect of being human is beautiful, not despite the negatives, but as a result of the jumbled mix of life and who we become as a result of that.
I can't even get across how much this song brings the pain out in me. Losing a baby girl named Grace one day before her due date breaks a guy more than I ever thought possible...... Drank many drinks and consumed many drugs trying to remember....then even more to forget.
This is my favorite Dave Matthews song ever it is so beautiful I always have these days were I always listen to it and it makes me so happy. I love you Dave
Thank you Dave for these beautiful words. I lost my husband unexpectedly July 2022. Your music was a big part in our relationship and I have come back to this song to help me through.
Besides being an amazing musician , there’s something about Dave Matthews that is just plain lovable. That’s how I feel about him as I listen to the thoughts he puts in his lyrics; and you can tell his fans feel the same way every time you hear a live rendition of his music
“WHERE YOU END & I BEGIN IS LIKE A RIVER GOIN THROUGH.” THANKS DAVE FOR ALWAYS SINGING OF YOUR SOUL’S JOURNEY, WHICH OPENED ME TO MY SOUL ONCE AGAIN. And Dave, my friend, Trust me; like us all you’ve touched inward, many times, to that illusion that what’s ‘out there’ can hurt or damage us, Love, you Never lost your Grace... it’s Always lived inside you & has always shined through in your magical music! EVER GRATEFUL ~*~
I love this song… Love you Dave… I used to bartend for quite some time… And I’ve heard many many stories that blew my mind… And I told those folks that I would pray, and I prayed a prayer that God would someday answer their prayers along with mine ; ?!?!?!
Neon shines through smoky eyes tonight Its 2 AM, Im drunk again Its heavy on my mind Its heavy on my mind I could never love again So much as I love you Where you end where I begin Is like a river going through Take my heart, take my eyes 'Cause I'll need them no more If never again theyll fall upon The one I so adore 'Scuse me please, one more drink Could you make it strong 'cause I dont need to think She broke my heart My Grace is Gone Another drink and Ill move on One drink to remember, and another to forget How could I ever dream to find a love like this again One drink to remember, and another to forget... Excuse me please, one more drink Would you make it strong 'Cause I dont need to think She broke my heart My Grace is Gone Another drink and Ill move on One more drink and ill move on... You think of things impossible Then the sun refuse to shine I woke with you beside me Your cold hand lay in mine 'Scuse me please, one more drink Could you make it strong 'Cause I dont need to think She broke my heart My Grace is Gone Another drink and Ill go... 'Scuse me please, one more drink Could you make it strong 'Cause I dont need to think She broke my heart My Grace is Gone Another drink and I'll move on One more drink and I'll move on One more drink my Grace is Gone💯💯🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
This song is me. I lost my daughter 7 weeks ago. I'd rather be numb than face the absolutely devastating grief. Although I still face it. Sad and true.
Neon shines through smoky eyes tonight It’s 2 am - I’m drunk again it’s heavy on my mind I could never love again so much as I love you Where you end where I begin is like a river going through Take my eyes take my heart I need them no more If never again they fall upon the one I so adore Excuse me please one more drink Could make it strong cause I don’t need to think She broke my heart my Grace is gone One more drink and I’ll move on One drink to remember then another to forget How could I ever dream to find sweet love like you again One drink to remember and another to forget Excuse me please one more drink Could make it strong cause I don’t need to think She broke my heart my Grace is gone One more drink and I’ll move on One more drink and I’ll be gone You think of things impossible and the sun refuse to shine I woke with you beside me your cold hand lay in mine Excuse me please one more drink Could make it strong cause I don’t need to think She broke my heart my Grace is gone One more drink and I’ll go Excuse me please one more drink Could make it strong cause I don’t need to think She broke my heart my Grace is gone One more drink and I’ll move on One more drink and I’ll be gone One more drink my Grace is gone
I totally agree! Their music has made me smile again through some of the hardest things I've ever been through. Such a blessing to hear the beautiful music they make
He and his band write songs that are relatable. They're the salt of the earth as the saying goes. Who can't appreciate or relate to what they put into symphony style rock music. They're in a class all their own. They romanticize they common man and that seems to be missing from music nowadays. They're the best.
our ABBY died she was our beautiful, gorgeous, kind loving cat. we all miss her. one more drink to her. she died in my arms, she was too good for this world, this world didn't deserve her. i'm glad i knew her, thank you ABBY.
His songs simply reflect life and all that happens in life and then he adds his musical touch and you get something that simply impacts people emotionally. Seen him live 10 times and regardless of the setlist it is a pleasure just to be there.
So amazing and sad. I loaded this onto my mp3 player the last night I spoke to her and now I go to sleep every night to this song...I think if my heart ached from missing her any more than it does now it would simply just stop beating. Thank you Dave :)
I lost her last night in a pillow full of tears. Got her back this morning in the dawn of a smile. Thank you Martini. You are my salvation in this world of madness. -AB
[Lyrics] Neon shines through smokey eyes tonight It's 2 a.m. I'm drunk again And it's heavy on my mind I could never love again So much as I love you Where you end, where I begin Is like a river going through Take my eyes, take my heart I need them no more If never again they fall upon the one I so adore Excuse me please, one more drink Could you make it strong? 'Cause I don't need to think She broke my heart My grace is gone One more drink and I'll move on One drink to remember Then another to forget How could I ever dream to find Sweet love like you again? One drink to remember And another to forget Excuse me please, one more drink Could you make it strong? 'Cause I don't need to think She broke my heart My grace is gone One more drink and I'll move on One more drink and I'll be gone You think of things impossible Then the sun refuse to shine I walk with you beside me Your cold hand lay in mine Excuse me please, one more drink Could you make it strong? 'Cause I don't need to think She broke my heart My grace is gone One more drink and I'll go Excuse me please, one more drink Could you make it strong? 'Cause I don't need to think She broke my heart My grace is gone One more drink and I'll move on One more drink and I'll be gone One more drink my grace is gone Ye-yeah No, no, no, no, my grace is gone My grace is gone
My wife and I were heartbroken when we lost our dog suddenly do to an allergic reaction to a bee sting. Because of this song we name our new puppy Grace. I love the lyrics "I could never love again So much as I love you Where you end, where I begin Is like a river running through Take my eyes, take my heart I need them no more If never again I fall upon the one I so adore" R.I.P. Lemon
Miss my best friend in the whole world more than anything right now, I’d do anything to have her back :( “one drink to remember and another to forget” hits too close to home
Its my first set of holidays without my precious mother she passed July 3rd. I miss you so much mama. This song reminds so much of her. She loved dave as much as I. 💔
I had a dear friend who passed recently. I haven't talked about it. Miss you. It's a beautiful night. You always got me to do the craziest things. Now you two are together. Blessings
🖤AJR - I could never love again so much as I love you... so take my eyes, take my heart, I don't need them no more if never again they fall upon the one I so adore
My dog, my best friend died in '05. This was the song I drank handles of Jack to. I miss that dog like none other. I have another, but there is no such thing as replacing an animal. My dog was my sister. I miss her immensely. Thanks, Dave.. you make things that are sad SO much better. If there were a god, you are him. Thank you.
This song is about his step-father dieing. He changed it to Grace is Gone....thought it was a better fit. But, it is about his step-father. Amazing Voice!!!
THIS SONG IS FREAKING BEAUTIFUL.... I feel like I'm taken to a rocker chair next to a fire in a rickety house with the wind howling outside and someone next to me playing the guitar while drinking some hot chocolate.
..like dave mathews..... soo long time ago seen him in switzerland .... his songs accompaigned me in good times and in bad times ... THANKS DAVE mathews and BAND...
