It was the first (good) gig they played after Dermot's voice problems, so this is still not Dermot at his best, but close enough for the internet I guess.
"Is a life only a lesson if it hurts?" I get a pinch in my heart each time that line comes on. Many thanks, Marvin! A raw DK voice is always appreciated.
SO sad when he played his show in stockholm last night and DIDN’T play stockholm. i think this video is as close as we’ll get to this song for a good while. thank you for posting this
Dermot Kennedy you my friend, are truly gifted, I love every word to every phase to every story to the show... I am very grateful heaven sent you to us... I am so grateful for these phases . 🙏🙏
Always gonna need you not to fall You're the one I'm always seeing in the door You know I never felt that way before It was always So, someone was the one that you would call Someone was the one who left you tall You're probably not in need of this at all It was hard today I'm always gonna need you not to fall You're the one I'm always seeing in the door You know I never felt that way before It was always So someone was the one that you would call Someone was the one who left you tall You're probably not in need of this at all It was hard today [Verse 2] So I guess hiding won't prepare you for the worst Designed to turn her blessings to a curse Is a life only a lesson if it hurts? This is all to say It helps to know we're only passing through The light will always find you in the room It's something that you never know you do And it's haunting me So I guess hiding won't prepare you for the worst Designed to turn her blessings to a curse Is a life only a lesson if it hurts? This is all to say That it helps to know we're only passing through The light will always find you in the room It's something that you never know you do Baby, it's been haunting me Well [Instrumental] [Bridge] Maybe it’s all in the pages Maybe it’s all underneath Maybe it’s better to keep it There’s nothing in love but defeat Been in this winter for ages Feels like I’ve never been free Maybe I’m just gonna say it Tell you I love you at least So I don’t know what the way is Don’t know what you need me to be Who are you running away with? Who are you wishing was me? Think of the summers we stayed in Whatever you’re seeing in me Kept all the love in the phrases Things I could never repeat Wish I could show you what safe is Wish I could tell you to breathe Wish all the devils were nameless Wish I could tell them to leave So I just hope it remains this 'Cause everything I’ve ever been Belonged to you second you claimed it Nah And I know that I should tell you everything But I'm holding in, but I'm holding in And I know that I should tell you everything But I'm holding in, but I'm holding in
