I must have heard this song a million times already, but this live performance still got me teary eyed. His songs and his voice just have a way to touch your soul.
Today, I was serving a customer and this song began playing. It has a deep meaning because this particular man lost his wife to suicide some years ago. She jumped in front of a train on her lunch break and nobody suspected she could do that. He cried hearing this, and I can only think God played Lewis song especially for him to hear. 💔
I still think about you, Greg. I wish there was something I could have said to make it all stop hurting and still have you here. I will never forget you, my friend. RIP. ❤🙏
The Lyrics: I fell by the wayside like everyone else I hate you, I hate you, I hate you But I was just kidding myself Our every moment, I start to replace 'Cause now that they're gone All I hear are the words that I needed to say When you hurt under the surface Like troubled water running cold Well, time can heal, but this won't So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make your heartbeat better? If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make it all stop hurting? It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless So, before you go Was never the right time, whenever you called Went little by, little by, little until there was nothing at all Our every moment, I start to replay it But all I can think about is seeing that look on your face When you hurt under the surface Like troubled water running cold Well, time can heal, but this won't So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make your heartbeat better? If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make it all stop hurting? It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless So, before you go Would we be better off by now If I'd have let my walls come down? Maybe, I guess we'll never know You know, you know Before you go Was there something I could've said To make your heartbeat better? If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make it all stop hurting? It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless So, before you go
I know they’ve played this song millions of times but how do you just stand there and not cry when playing this??? Mate I would be preoccupied crying puddles 🤣😅😅 this song stirs up certain memories and emotions for me
I’ve heard this song many times and never really ‘heard’ the words being said…until I listened to this stripped back version - whole new meaning for me now 😢
Lived in Edinburgh for while, this man is the sound of Scotland, I'm sorry never listened when there but fucked his beauty is Scotland xx much love brother xx
the love of my life shot himself 21 years ago.. and i will never get over it.. when i hear this song .. it brings me back to that time.. and i am not living anymore I am just existing... waiting to die..
I love ALL his songs, his voice is BEAUTIFUL, amazing and fascinating. it really touches your soul..Lewis please continue making and bring us your music..Everyone loves your music…
The drummer is fantastic. I hope the great keyboard player stays with Lewis for ever. Lewis can arrange those musical notes perfectly, on all of his creations. 💕 Ya Lewis!!
As a Canadian , I feel guys like Lewis and Sam Fender are far superior song writers in todays day and age and I’m a musician of 20 years at 26 . Well done mates
Yep, I'm no expert on the subject, I just thought you were suggesting lewis was Canadian too, I don't know who Sam fender is or where he is from so couldn't possibly comment about him
Amazing to see such sound really come frome a mere human. We assume so much is manipulated and autotuned these days. Love to hear a raw talent with emotion in the voice instead of glossy mass produced pop.
Lyrics ; I fell by the wayside, like everyone else I hate you, I hate you, I hate you But I was just kidding myself Our every moment, I start to replace 'Cause now that they're gone All I hear are the words that I needed to say When you hurt under the surface Like troubled water running cold Well, time can heal, but this won't So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make your heart beat better? If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make it all stop hurting? It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless So, before you go Was never the right time, whenever you called Went little, by little, by little until there was nothing at all Our every moment, I start to replay But all I can think about is seeing that look on your face When you hurt under the surface Like troubled water running cold Well, time can heal, but this won't So, before you go Was there something I could've said To make your heart beat better?
