      like when you have a crush, and they dont know, and they either announce their boyfriend/girlfriend or say "Im happy being alone, relationships arent for me". The latter happened to me recently, and i really want to tell her "If you just give me a chance, i think i could change your mind" but i dont want to ruin anything. Me and her are such good friends. Plus, we live a long while away from eachother (Her in Alberta, Canada and me in Arkansa, USA) so i dont know how long it'd last anyways. But a man can dream...a man can dream :')

    And I'd give up forever to touch you
    'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
    You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
    And I don't want to go home right now
    And all I can taste is this moment
    And all I can breathe is your life
    And sooner or later it's over
    I just don't wanna miss you tonight
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's meant to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
    Or the moment of truth in your lies
    When everything feels like the movies
    Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's meant to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's meant to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's meant to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    I just want you to know who I am

      ***** If they were a one-hit wonder, I could see someone get tired of hearing the same request over time. That's obviously not the case here. As someone who writes and plays music, I'd say that I love and feel the music enough that it's still enjoyable to play a song that I've played 1000 times before. Part of being a musician is seeing the enjoyment that your music brings to others... and if that means playing a song that's been overplayed, so be it.

    "Iris"
    And I'd give up forever to touch you
    'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
    You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
    And I don't wanna go home right now
    And all I can taste is this moment
    And all I can breathe is your life
    When sooner or later it's over
    I just don't wanna miss you tonight
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
    Or the moment of truth in your lies
    When everything feels like the movies
    Yeah, you bleed just to know you're alive
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    And I don't want the world to see me
    'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
    When everything's made to be broken
    I just want you to know who I am
    I just want you to know who I am
    I just want you to know who I am
    I just want you to know who I am

    Alt tuning is like another language (for most standard guitar players)....and when it's expressed like this it is very pleasing....I've read John put this together when asked to put a song on the movie while he was going through some sh**...What a freaking result !!! All have is "thank you"...You have been touched !!! :-)

    Interesting story: his guitar is missing one string (high E) because at the time of writing this song he had a broken guitar which was missing strings. He did not want to go outside to replace them. While composing the song I imagine it would have felt and sounded similar to this performance.

    People who never really sang for their supper before, don't realize that the voice doesn't last forever. There are VERY FEW singers his age who can sing like they did in their 20's.
    Also...for some, the hard living really catches up to them.

    que excelente canción , trasmite muchas cosas ,su melodía es única , incomparable ,letra excelente y desarrollada en una película con muy buen tema "IRIS" la mejor canción que han hecho este grupo. ..
    cada vez que escucho la melodía de las notas principales alegra el estado emocional es muy inspiradora y ayuda a reflexionar sobre lo que es nuestra vida y como la estamos llevando.
