    My wife and I met 51 years ago..at a band practice. She was the singer. During a break I picked up a guitar and played Felicianos version of Light My Fire. We married 10 months later. 50 years later…kids, mortgages and life she’s recently been diagnosed with stage 4 metastatic cancer. Our time together is limited. When she falls behind…I will wait for her.

    My father listened to Bruce Springsteen every.single.day, blasting his music in our home for decades. Last spring he fell into a coma, and everyday we softly played Bruce for him in the hospital. Unfortunately he passed last April, but every time I hear these songs, its eases the pain and reminds me of such fond memories of him. Thank you Bruce for bringing such joy into my father's life.

    My wife just passed last night at 7pm and I'm not able to sleep right now. It's been almost 19 years since I haven't slept next to that beautiful woman who gave me herself to me and gave me a beautiful daughter. She gave me all of herself and knew me better than I knew myself. I was able to whisper into her ear last night everything I wanted to say to her and so did our child. As we left the hospice house I knew it was going to be the last time we would see her. I know she will wait for me. I'll never forget you my beautiful wife. You only find true love once in a lifetime and we had that. I'm at a loss right now 😭

    My late husband and I made this agreement: to wait for one another if the other fell behind. It so happened he died before me so he will wait for me. He said he would and I believe him. I can't wait to see him again. Waiting to be with him again seems like forever. I bet for him, it's the blink of an eye, and I'm glad.

    Unbelievable to me.,
    So raw, so pure, so full of love and passion how these ppl sang this song. (Bruce, Stevie, Nils, Patti and Clarence, thank you for this raw version of this song)

    My wife walked up the aisle to this song. I will never forget how she looked that day or how I felt right there and then. We are married 8 yrs this month. Every time something feels wrong in our world, I put this on, it brings everything back to how it is and how it should be. Whether it's love or a chemical reaction in our brain, I never have or never will feel what I do for her. These words are amazing, it's poetry, it's soul, its rare and raw.

    In the last two or three decades, Springsteen's work sometimes feels more like prayers, hymns, or parables than mainstream rock songs. This song, Land Of Hopes And Dreams, The Rising, Atlantic City, Empty Sky, American Skin (41 Shots) -- these are deeply moving and spiritual.

    Man this song... It's the first time I've heard it, I thought it was something else. But the song is so emotionally charged for me I'm crying listening.. second hearing, the song is so heartfelt I'm sniffling and feeling the tears flowing down my cheeks. Every member of the band brings their own soul into the piece.

    I've listened to this every day, sometimes more than once a day, since my husband died in November 2017. Our hands slipped apart but I am sure he is waiting for me. We're still partners, we're still married, it's just that strangers can no longer see him.

    We said we'd walk together baby come what may

    If as we're walking a hand should slip free
    I'll wait for you
    And should I fall behind
    Wait for me
    We swore we'd travel darlin' side by side
    We'd help each other stay in stride
    But each lover's steps fall so differently
    But I'll wait for you
    And if I should fall behind
    Wait for me
    Now everyone dreams of love lasting and true
    Oh, but you and I know what this world can do
    So let's make our steps clear that the other may see
    I'll wait for you
    And if I should fall behind
    Wait for me
    Now there's a beautiful river in the valley ahead
    There 'neath the oak's bough soon we will be wed
    Should we lose each other in the shadow of the evening trees
    I'll wait for you
    Should I fall behind
    Wait for me
    Darlin' I'll wait for you
    Should I fall behind
    Wait for me
    Yeah, I'll wait for you
    Should I fall behind
