25 years later, and still- this song came on after my “unwind and chill” mix on Spotify, while painting my house. It froze me in my tracks. Ben reached the desired effect here. The relationship has long since ended and seems to be running its evolutionary course. I’m still learning to choose to walk away. Honest confession.
It's Ben ten years. Last time I shead a tear to this I was coming down off 6 tabs of acid. Had a complete breakdown best come down of my life. Music always saves your life.......don't you know
De De love this. I def know what ur saying. Saying goodbye to Lucy with some music like Ben Harper Is always a good come down. Releasing with those good tears.
Great song ! ("They say if you love somebody you have got to set them free ... but I would rather be locked to you than live in this pain and misery ! And they say time will make all this go away ... but it's time that takes all my 'tomorrows' and turns them into 'yesterdays'..." ) This is deep
This song embodies everything you feel in a breathtake, but would take an eternity to explain... Ben Harper, you capture it as it is: brutal, hard, but so beautiful and so real. Thank you...
saw ben harper playing in a little cafe in ojai,i was out visiting fam in ventura,ive lived all over but i hail from little oh.town. hed just turned16 and was not steeped in blues yet,matter of time! i had my harp on me and we jammed for 30 mins! i just new he would be a great musician!!!!!!!!
Best Part 5:41... you get to see him smile after he has left the spirit of the song and came back down to earth just to hear thousands of his fans cheering him on for what he loves to do the most...
I've been so blessed in my life to be around great people and artists like Ben. I remember back when I worked for 97x which is now GONE..it was WOXY 97x BAM the future of Rock and Roll..well..Ben played for about 4 of us out back of the studio. It was one of the most amazing things I took part in. I played the djembe and smoked one with him and he was SO fucking nervous. It's good to see good people make it.
finally, a song that i can listen to that relates to the grief i feel when i miss my truest friend and soulmate who died in an instant...walking away is painful, whether by choice or by force, ive known both, and this is the only song that comes close to those feelings....
I'd love to meet this guy, tell him how much of an impact he has done on my life! :) How this song has helped me through bad times, mainly when I was just a little kid and couldn't find my place in this world... This song means the world to me (: I now walk away from my problems :) I don't make things worst thank you Ben fo this (:
ten years ago I went to a cd store and got me a Ben Harper CD. Bought me a guitar, sucked at it and haven´t been trying for another 3 years. Picked it up again and been playing ever since every fucking day after work. ...People keep asking: " How many years you´ve been playing". My answer tonight would be: "It doesnt mean shit, it´s just about feeling it". Can´t even get close:). Got to write one youself. Love. Dan
This concert is my childhood (even if i am only born 2006) i watched it sooooo many times and Ben harper is still my absolute Favorite musician love u ben
Thanks bro. I remember us playing outback on the "party patio" of 97x WOXY with just 4 of us and my dog and me playing the djembe to your guitar. It was amazing. Thanks for the memories Ben. Good to see a good person make it. Peace.
I walked away on a good note and even though he's all the way down under on the other side of the world... I hope one day our paths will cross because my love feels so free with him like never before (sighhhhhhh) x
Thank you for being a bit more diplomatic, pinkamos!! You'll be glad to know that the door is now closed. I had wedged my foot in the door for a long, long time, but it's closed now, waiting for another one to open!
Maybe the bes song writer of our generation, but thank god we have so many to dispote that title. So many talents in our generation who can write powerful lyrics and musics...but Ben is AWESOME!! (damm...I´m depressed)
Nothin says it quite the way this song does.... Wish I didn't have to walk away from her but I'm no good for her, and she couldn't ever stay faithful to me.... Miss you Lacey Erie
Sometimes, the option for fighting for your love ain't an option no more...the only option you have is to walk away...It's not the easiest, its the only one...
I'm in love with someone who is afraid of getting hurt again, and so is afraid to take a chance with me. I keep living in hope that he'll change his mind, and yes, I've spent 4 years trying to make him believe that it is in no way my intention to hurt him again. I know it's a long time, but I really hope I don't look back on these years with regret. My fingers are still crossed! "It's so hard to do, but so easy to say...."
Look on his website it has a list of all of his guitars. The hollow neck acoustic without fretts is called a wisenbourn. Its kind of his signature sound.
@dhswpea this song helped me so much to understand a friend, who would not spend time with me anymore, cause he felt that there is something i had to deal with myself......i would raise a glass of tears for ben harpers understanding sensitive way! bless him
wow drunkenher0 you are so blunt! I have to agree with him though justnoneed. I did something that pushed someone I liked away, and that time is now gone. I have the nice memories but I have since walked away. close the door please. I love this song. I also really love The drugs don't work by ben harper (the verves are kool but I prefer ben)
If you have repetitively listened this song 1000x, give a thumbs up!
👍👍👍
I have covered this song and please bleed 10000 times

This dude's live show will add 5 positive years to your life. It completely rocks.
They say that time will make all this go away... But its time that has taken my tomorrows and turned them into yesterdays 🥴 such beautiful lyrics
This one guy got me through so much in my life just through his words. Thank you Ben, thank you..
Great song !
("They say if you love somebody you have got to set them free ... but I would rather be locked to you than live in this pain and misery !

This is deep
The cure for heartache: listen to this song til it stops hurting.
My husband died 2 weeks ago and this was one of our anthems ,he hasnt had a funeral yet terrible
I sang this song to my baby girl since the day she was born. It was the song I knew complete and sounded like a lullaby. She's 18 and loves this song

Ok
he has the whole package, great songwriting, voice, soul, and he can do it all on acoustic - true gift
I love Ben Harper. Honestly, Brings me up when i am down, and make my happy times happier.
His passion for his music makes him so much better then other artists.
I love how he really feels the song. much respect and love.
Best Part 5:41... you get to see him smile after he has left the spirit of the song and came back down to earth just to hear thousands of his fans cheering him on for what he loves to do the most...
Thank You Ben Beautiful words I just walked away from a young lady whose stuck in addiction I hope she can make it out God Bless Her...

This has been my crying song lately...so perfectly written...
I've been to a few of his concerts. He does an acoustic set as an encore which is always incredible.
Thanks bro. I remember us playing outback on the "party patio" of 97x WOXY with just 4 of us and my dog and me playing the djembe to your guitar. It was amazing. Thanks for the memories Ben. Good to see a good person make it. Peace.
Deep grace & gratitude 🌻💛💫🌠🙏
Un peu de douceur et sagesse dans ce monde, voilà ce que nous apporte BEN HARPER ;)
They say if you love somebody
Then you have got to set them free
But I would rather be locked to you
Than live in this pain and misery
My heart blew open right there.
ben harper is my mornin coffee...just feels good and gets me goin!
April Thompson.... Hope you’re having a wonderful life. 😘
I walked away on a good note and even though he's all the way down under on the other side of the world... I hope one day our paths will cross because my love feels so free with him like never before (sighhhhhhh) x
"You put the happy in my ness...you put the shine in my sun!"
Sometimes a song comes along that just says it all..
The only artist an audience can’t sing his emotions, so unpredictable!
Thank you for being a bit more diplomatic, pinkamos!! You'll be glad to know that the door is now closed. I had wedged my foot in the door for a long, long time, but it's closed now, waiting for another one to open!
thanks for mentioning some other songs man. i'd never heard of hathaway...just gorgeous.
Pray for Japan. His voice casts aside the fears we are facing.
oh man with this song he doesn't play the guitar.. he makes the guitar cry
:')
listening to this song, i dedicate my thoughts to Hans and pray for his safer tomorrow...
Maybe the bes song writer of our generation, but thank god we have so many to dispote that title.
So many talents in our generation who can write powerful lyrics and musics...but Ben is AWESOME!! (damm...I´m depressed)

...They say time will make all this go away,

and turned them into yesterdays...
I think people think it's a little cheesy. But I really like it.

Sometimes, the option for fighting for your love ain't an option no more...the only option you have is to walk away...It's not the easiest, its the only one...
