haven't heard this version in years... the first one i heard. the music feels colored "brighter" and less weighted compared to the album version to me, so i love them both, for different moods... glad i found this again.
this song came on the night by boyfriend ( now husband) were praying for the healing of my dad's cancer... it's stuck with me ever since, my dad passed this year, but this song really brought some comfort at the time.. I'll never forget it.
Has anyone else noticed that this song is slightly different from the version of this song on iTunes? Note the leadup to the chorus: In this video, it is "Time to tear you apart/But it won't break [etc]" On iTunes it's "Lord knows I failed you, time and again [etc]" On top of that, this song has much more energy than the one on iTunes.
There is an album version, and this version. This one is more rock-oriented, while the album version is more of a ballad. Main differences include, but are not limited to: Different main piano riff during verses/intro, Different pre-chorus; "Lord knows I'll fail you..." and "Time can tear you apart...," Stronger choruses (This one), And this one fades out sooner. If you purchase the song on iTunes or wherever, you'll most likely get the album version. Hope this helped :3
(15 years later but better late than never) LYRICS: I tried to paint you a picture The colors were all wrong Black and white didn't fit you And all along You were shaded with patience Your strokes of everything That I need just to make it And I believed that Time could tear you apart But it won't break Anything that you are You are We won't say our goodbyes You know it's better that way We won't break, we won't die It's just a moment of change All we are, all we are Is everything that's right All we need, all we need Our lover's alibi I walked a minute in your shoes They never would have fit I figured there's nothing to lose I need to get Some perspective on these words Before I hunt them down You're an island and my ship Has run aground Time can tear you apart But it won't break Anything that we are We are We won't say our goodbyes You know it's better that way We won't break, we won't die It's just a moment of change All we are, all we are Is everything that's right All we need, all we need Our lover's alibi Every single day that I can breathe You changed my philosophy I'm never gonna let you pass me by So don't say your goodbyes You know it's better that way We won't break, we won't die It's just a moment of change So don't say your goodbyes You know it's better that way We won't break, we won't die It's just a moment of change All we are, all we are Is everything that's right All we need, all we need Our lover's alibi So don't say your goodbyes You know it's better that way We won't break, we won't die...
I keep coming back to this video to listen to this version, both this and album version are equally good. And I keep listening both, comparing the music and arrangement, the intro and ending. The album version sounds more heartwarming and mellow. This version is more “upbeat” and “rock” ish. I’m so glad this “video” has been released and come to our knowledge. This version hopefully should be on Spotify, too. I sooo love this song. I love Ryan Tedder (he’s so talented and very good songwriter/producer) and One Republic esp their earlier albums.
I didn't know much about these guys until earlier tonight. I knew of a couple of their songs from the radio but I assumed they were edited very heavily in the studio. I saw them as the opener for Rob Thomas tonight and I have to say I was blown away. They are excellent live performers, wonderful musicians, and the lead singer has amazing range. Really impressive all the way around, I suggest anyone who has an opportunity to see them does so - certainly worth it.
I love this song. I can even relate to it from a situation I'm going through right now and similar ones in the past. Beautiful song and One Republic are an Amazing band. But in their live version of this song on UA-cam, someone said One Republic > The Fray. The Fray is an absolutely amazing band also. Why compare these two great bands? The Fray is underrated in my opinion though. I absolutely love these two bands. They make really beautiful music that I can often relate to. I love you guys
we won't break, we won't die, it's just a moment of change. year 2007 and i was so into someone but we couldnt be together due to certain circumstances. whether the feeling was mutual or not, we both chose not to say our goodbyes cos all we knew then was that we are all we are, and it was just a moment of change. our inspiration was this song. :) best album by 1R in my opinion
I first heard this on gossip girl, and I've been in love with onerepublic's music since. I stopped watching gossip girl very quickly (lol), but I never stopped listening to this band.
Agreed. It's nice to have hope once more... and faith, and belief in things that are good. No longer bogged down with misery, we have something to look forward to. I haven't had that in so long... it's a nice breath of fresh air. Kudos, Zeoras!
This song is a favorite of mine. I love it SO much. We wont say our goodbyes you know it's better that way We wont break, we wont die, it's just a moment of change That's beautiful and deep lyrics. Ryan Tedder and One Republic ROCK and I love both their albums. This is real music.
how could u think this song is depressing its tlkin about when u seperate from ppl like when u graduate u dnt say goodbye. yr friendships arent going to end u will stay friends forever its a happy song they all r :)
in my opinion this song can mean all sorts of different things... breaking up and getting back together- breaking up and staying friends.. for me its the latter- recently separated from a great man, but we are the best of friends now- even stronger that b4. we'll always be in each others lives.. we didn't break or die, things just changed.. for the better xx
luv ryan tedder, got ALL his songs, and all of one republics and out of all of em this is the best!! I LUV IT ! AND I LUV ONE REPUBLIC! Don't ever split u guys! :D
I heard this song recaping all the things that happened in 2008 it almost made me cry America is finally BACK!!! with Obama and our new ideas, music, govermant, finally we can say truthfully: God Bless America
I now remember this song, i loved some time ago, and now a friend was yelling like 'all we are from one republic is awesome' and now i listen this song again i'm like 'how could i have forgotten this!' i feel ashamed of this and have terribly much stress thnx to this! i wanna die!
We won´t say our goodbye´s you know it´s better that way We won´t break, we won´t die it´s just a moment of change All we are, all we are is everything that´s right All we need, all we need a lover´s alibi...

Finally found this version. 100X better than the other one!
WHAT!?!?! (Your opinion, I understand, but don't agree!)
I definitely agree! It makes me so sad it’s not the album version
I like this version way better (probaby because I heard it first) but not 100x lol
#truth
Me either buddies. This version is faster and most POWERFUL so far
haven't heard this version in years... the first one i heard. the music feels colored "brighter" and less weighted compared to the album version to me, so i love them both, for different moods... glad i found this again.
this song came on the night by boyfriend ( now husband) were praying for the healing of my dad's cancer... it's stuck with me ever since, my dad passed this year, but this song really brought some comfort at the time.. I'll never forget it.
it's very addicting... i even went out and got their CD.
I could listen to it over and over and never get tired.
This is the original band that i fell in love with. You can tell how much feeling went into this album
This is definitely the better version that should've been included in the album!
Has anyone else noticed that this song is slightly different from the version of this song on iTunes?

In this video, it is "Time to tear you apart/But it won't break [etc]"

This is the best version!
someone should put this version to spotify

There are songs you can always come back to... this is one... never fails...

LYRICS:
I tried to paint you a picture
The colors were all wrong
Black and white didn't fit you
And all along
You were shaded with patience
Your strokes of everything
That I need just to make it
And I believed that
Time could tear you apart
But it won't break
Anything that you are
You are
We won't say our goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
Our lover's alibi
I walked a minute in your shoes
They never would have fit
I figured there's nothing to lose
I need to get
Some perspective on these words
Before I hunt them down
You're an island and my ship
Has run aground
Time can tear you apart
But it won't break
Anything that we are
We are
We won't say our goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
Our lover's alibi
Every single day that I can breathe
You changed my philosophy
I'm never gonna let you pass me by
So don't say your goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
So don't say your goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die
It's just a moment of change
All we are, all we are
Is everything that's right
All we need, all we need
Our lover's alibi
So don't say your goodbyes
You know it's better that way
We won't break, we won't die...
❤️
I miss this kind of One Republic
Yeah. Waking up album n dreaming out loud are unique
You're an island and my ship
Has run aground......
Best lines and well sung by Ryan 😍😍😍
BEST VERSION!
This brings back memories, 3 years ago when I first discovered OneRepublic (even then I felt late to the party). I

I can't get enough of this song! It's beautiful.
I love all their songs! One Republic is awesome!
Why couldn't this version be on the album
Because it's a ripoff of the Beatles?
@@rosskstar which Beatles song?
@@grantgarbour Dear Prudence - obvious from the start
@@rosskstar thanks
@@rosskstar you know there's such thing as inspiration or just being similar right? Not a ripoff
Best song (with all fall down) best album!!!! I STIL LOVE ONEREPUBLIC...but i miss this!!!
Paramore and One Republic should be on the radio more often
Se passaram 15 anos e eu tenho a mesma sensação toda vez que ouço essa música, inexplicável.
I love this song. I can even relate to it from a situation I'm going through right now and similar ones in the past. Beautiful song and One Republic are an Amazing band. But in their live version of this song on UA-cam, someone said One Republic > The Fray. The Fray is an absolutely amazing band also. Why compare these two great bands?
