- I just remembered that time at the market
snuck up behind me and jumped on my shopping cart
and rolled down aisle five
you looked behind you to smile back at me
crashed into a rack full of magazines
they asked us if we could leave
I can't remember what went wrong last September
though I'm sure you'd remind me if you had to
our love was comfortable and so broken in
I sleep with this new girl I'm still getting used to
my friends all approve,
say "she's gonna be good for you"
they throw me high fives
she says the Bible is all that she reads
and prefers that I not use profanity
your mouth was so dirty
life of the party and she swears that she's artsy
but you could distinguish Miles from Coltrane
our love was comfortable and so broken in
she's perfect
so flawless
or so they say
she thinks I can't see the smile that she's faking
and poses for pictures that aren't being taken
I loved you
grey sweatpants
no makeup
so perfect
our love was comfortable and so broken in
she's perfect
so flawless
I'm not impressed
I want you back
Nothing is more precious than having someone you're comfortable with. Best kind of love... Only known one woman I was comfortable with since the first day we met, and I screwed it up. Take notes kids, don't take that for granted. It's the rarest love you can experience.
Love you buddy. I’m here with ya. Same thing :( thank god I had two beautiful girls with her…. And as much as she hates me my girls emanate her spirit every time I’m with them. It’s not total happiness, but it’s definitely… comfortable 😢
I played this song at my husband's funeral. We loved John Mayer, saw him in concert 5 times. My husband said it reminded him of us. He died January 4, 2015 after 42 years of marriage. I cry whenever I hear this
You just made me cry. So sad for you.
The fact that you found love for 42 years of marriage and still love him makes me still feel hope for true love. I'm sorry for your loss, but I'm glad you experienced something most people long for.
You're blessed to have a love worth longing for and lamenting. We wish for that. God Bless You. I hope it brings a smile to your heart too.
I wish John Mayer could see this Comment ❤️😓
Hugs to you from an internet stranger.
This is the song you listen to at 2am on a rainy night. Classic John
try "why did you mess with forever" or "city love"
city loveeeee que tema !!!
Baridi Baridi simmmm
Justy Music or a few beers, thinking about the past love.
Exactly. This. Right now! Crazy
This is not only one of John Mayer's best songs, in my opinion it's up there with the best songs ever written, both musically and lyrically. A masterpiece. Crazy how he never released this commercially. John Mayer is limitless & I want him to mentor me.
I agree with you so, so much.
I personally think its by far his best song and second would be stop this train.
Kyle Joyce I think just this recording sounds weird. The live version that he recorded of this is SO much better
This track was actually from his demo that he produced and arranged on his own, so that's the reason it sounds a bit unpolished. Still my favorite though. The live version is also great.
it is not his song... he co-wrote it whit clay cook ! thta is why he didn't relised it
Lost my husband of 42 years on January 4, 2015. He was my first love. We raised a family and I always thought that our life was filled with happiness, and we were comfortable. This song always makes me cry.
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. But I am so happy for you to have spent 42 years with your best friend building a life and family and making memories that will be loved and cherished in your family for generations. Congratulations for that, we all hope and pray to have that life. Enjoy
Your comment hit me HARD. Wish you the best. Also, I'm not crying, you're crying. ❤
"she thinks I can't see the smile that she's faking
and poses for pictures that aren't being taken
I loved you
grey sweatpants
no makeup
so perfect"
This song's so beautiful :(
Jasmine F, when we broke up, it was near the end of fall and I didn't cry. The following fall, after a year without you, I was sitting in my office and a co-worker passed me a cd with this tune...I've had ears full of tears ever since. Love you so much that I wish I never knew you...
Who's still listening to this in 2019? The best John Mayer song ever. So heartbreaking.
Discovered this song back in 2005 or 2006 or so when I really started getting into his music. And I'm still listening to it. Most likely I will be listening to it in 2029 as well.
A caller on Andy Cohen's Radio show on Monday asked John to play this song live at his show in Chicago this summer. The name of the song sounded so familiar but I couldn't remember it so I just looked it up and -Boom- just like that so many high school memories flooded back to me while listening to this. Here's hoping he plays it in concert more often.
Memories of a past life.
Truly heartbreaking.
2020 & God did i need to hear this
the violin in the background makes it so perfect.
hey, people who read the Bible are cool, too.
It's funny how so many people call him a douchebag. Those people have never been to one of his shows or actually listened to what he has to say in context. Almost every case of "douchebaggery" is him being sarcastic, then people taking his jokes out of context because they can. In reality, he's a very smart and funny dude. Not to mention one of the best songwriters/pop musicians this side of the century.
I know everyone says it but this song seriously is 100 percent me right now. I was with a girl for four years and I made mistakes here and there and she just slowly got tired of it, right as i was finally maturing and realizing how much I truly needed her. The live version John says over and over "Why'd I have to practice on you?" That hits me so hard everytime. Maybe someday there may be something, who knows. She was my best friend.
Justine, it’s been more than three years but youre still the love of my life.
stop simping. move on
@@jjm3762 simping is a made up word that kids use. Everyone who reads this knows you’re just being an ass to hide your own insecurities. It’s just trying to hard and it’s really sad. Maybe no one has ever loved you and that’s why you don’t understand? What else would make you want to be such a douche?
@@nothingnewtome1 when a relationship is terminated one side has moved on and grown past the situation. He is simping and acting immature and irrational. Get over it and move on. Life is too short. You sound like a child
I feel sorry for you Mr. T. You've never had a Justine of your own to understand what that one true broken heart looks like.
@@SAsnfr the fuck?? Can you read??? I think we are on the same side.
"But you could distinguish Miles from Coltrane"...being a musician, i know exactly how it feels...killer song!!
Amen brother!!!
I don't think it's that hard to distinguish a trumpet player from a saxophone player... I'd be honored if some John Mayer fans would take a listen to my acoustic piano & vocal performances of his early masterpieces CLARITY and LOVE SOON on my YT channel in tribute to the boss. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and peace out.
They are two totally different instruments....drives me nuts. My god people are dumb.
2021 and still going strong. He will go down in history as one of the best musicians and lyriccomposers ever.
❤No argument there. Definitely #1 for my generation. 💔
JM never ceases to impress me. Been fan for a while. Now I started listening to his earliest stuff. Damn, this is such a beautiful song. WIll be definitely among these 'endless loop' Mayer playlists I have. This album goes back to 1999, he was 22 then. How do you even write such a thing? Pure perfection.
Ivaylo Angelov me too
im korean, and same goes on me
I literally feel like I'm breaking into pieces whenever I hear this song. She was just so perfect.
I know it’s been 9 years but did you ever get back together?
when he says "I loved you" close to the end, it's probably one of the most beautiful things i've ever heard
Now that they removed this album from streaming platforms this is how I’ll be listening to it
Sadness and happiness fills the comment section of this song. IM so proud of this community.
This song is beautiful. I love how ordinary the lyrics are. He's not trying to make anything sound too poetic or over complicate anything and it works brilliantly.
Yeah can hear a hint of Eddie Vedder in his vocals on this one. One of his earlier recordings. John if you're reading this, thanks for the years of great music and inspiration. You're the man
My heart was gonna be dead when I was 19,you saved it, I picked up guitar at 23,and I’m quite happy living in the little dreamland John Mayer made...
Believe me or not, but I've moved on from my ex, but for these 5 minutes and 2 seconds, I'm not.
Then the song ends and I've moved on again, but it's nice to reminisce.
Randy Villaverde amazing !
That's probably the highest regard a song could have
hey i her u
Nailed it with your description.
Is it strange that it’s the exact same way for me
It's great.
The "Any Given Thursday" version is brilliant
Pure is a good word. I remember "Covered In Rain" got my through something similar.
Can’t remember what went wrong last September story of my life haha beautiful song by the most talented person ever
Making rebound sound romantic, with JM's voice:( I wanna cry every time I listen to this song. Brings back memories....
This song to me is a masterpiece, and I honestly don't know why this doesn't have an extra few zeros on the views. As someone that sings, plays and writes songs (nowhere near John Mayer's league!) I can honestly say this is one a handful of songs that I struggle to listen to, because it's too good......
This song is just so real. Like you don't have to sit there and think about this song in order to get hit deeply by it. It just sends this pain to my heart. This song really speaks.
This song just gives me goosebumps. Its so beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time...this is why I love John Mayer.
This song always makes me think of someone who is so special to me and I dont think she knows just how much. Haven't seen her in a long time but this song takes me to times of us and the love we shared. I have a new life now for 10 years but for some reason I still need to go back to this song and that time with her.
His first album is by far his best album.
SN2903 I completely agree with you. Certainly is a great musician but now he lost between the relationships. Really I think this album is about himself and not the industry wants of Mayer.
I was totally swept by this song. John Mayer was a real poet and s true music genius. He's like murmuring something in your ears...only with such sincerity and musicality
I loved you
grey sweatpants
no makeup
so perfect...
God Bless U Daniel Cho & your family (Cellist on this song), this song has a new level of appreciation now. Everybody, put Daniel in your thoughts/prayers when you listen to this song.
Whole lotta pain behind these lyrics
I just remembered that time at the market
You snuck up behind me and jumped on my shopping cart
And rode down aisle 5
You looked behind you and smiled back at me
Crashed into a rack full of magazines
They asked us if we could leave
Can't remember what went wrong last September
Though I'm sure you'd remind me if you had to
Our love was comfortable and so broken in
I sleep with this new girl I'm still getting used to
My friends all approve, say she's gonna be good for me
They throw me high fives
She says the Bible is all that she reads
And prefers that I not use profanity
Your mouth was so dirty
Life of the party
And she swears that she's artsy
But you could distinguish Miles from Coltrain
Our love was comfortable and so broken in
She's perfect
So flawless
Or so they say
Say
She thinks I can't see the smile that she's faking
The poses for pictures that aren't being taken
I loved you
Gray sweat pants
No makeup
So perfect
Our love was comfortable and so broken in
She's perfect, so flawless
I'm not impressed
I want you back
this is possibly THE best John Mayer song ever, not to mention one of the best songs ever written.
Every time I love him more... Great song. Make me without words.
I've been coming back to this song time and time again for over 15 years now...
The hardest lessons I've ever had to learn is that this kind of love CAN happen with certain people in your life, but that doesn't mean it will.
The second hardest lesson is realizing that finding this kind of love is the easy part, that hard part is maintaining it.
It's easy to "comfortably love" people when the accumulated baggage of years isn't clogging your eyes, ears and mouth.
This is the first song I learned how to play on guitar....I did it to impress this girl I wanted to date. Best decision Ive ever made. :)
***** Ikr lol this wasn't my first song but it does get the gals crazy lol. I played this for one only cause she was lookin at me as she walked into the principal and they both fell LOL
***** Ikr lol this wasn't my first song but it does get the gals crazy lol. I played this for one only cause she was lookin at me as she walked into the principal and they both fell LOL
+Mal Mal i m not sure what i would say if i guy played this song to me, unless it is my ex
I love that. I fell in love with my husband because he played Lady for me. Jess♡
Mal Mal First song I ever perfected! did the same thing brother! And I'm about to marry her
This is one of the best songs ever! I never liked John Mayer until I heard this song. His songs that are not top 40 are the best ones he has! He's awesome! I'm definitely a fan now.
Jesus christ I thought I'm at least a big fan of him but swear to God I've never heard of this.
Two seconds in to the song though and I'm all over it now
You saved my life Adrian. Thanks for loving me when I couldn't love myself. I hope you're happy with the person God gave you.
2020 and still touches my heart :) love this song
How can this NOT be on one of John's albums?! John, what are you thinking?! This is EXCEPTIONAL!
freddybeer It's actually on Inside Wants Out, Any Given Thursday (live) & As Is (live). Obsessed with this song since the first time I heard it!! 👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️
They're aren't 'technically' albums though, are they?
True but as long as it's documented & I can purchase it I'm happy 😉
That's a nice way to look at it.
This song seriously kills me .....
Same here liten covered in rain
Carrie Huang same here.
The Love of my life played this for me and then had the audacity to say that he just wanted to be friends!! awwww how frkn sweet!
Sigh...the little things....the little things. when you love a girl so much shes just as beautiful in no makeup and sweats as she is in a dress and all dolled up. little things....the trips to the grocery store...being goofy....guys, if you have a good one, hold onto her...dont give her all she deserves....dont make the same mistakes i made....
happy thanksgiving where ever you are babygirl
I found this interesting ..
Why not to give her all she deserves.??
Its a 12 years old comment !
I hope you come back to listen this masterpiece again....I hope you are content brother❤️
I 2nd Itachi ❤
"But you could distinguish, miles from coltrane"...very dope line!
The comfortable and broken-in love is the one that hurts the most to lose.. :(
This was such an underrated song when it came out. Has actually always been my favourite song of his. I'm a musician, and the haunting beautiful simplicity of this song gives me chills.
Most beautiful song I have ever heard.
One of the best songs of the last 20 years... absolutely brilliant .. brings me to tears.
This song is great, if you listen to "Dreaming with a broken heart" by John Mayer, and if you've ever had your heart broken, it will definitely make you cry.
Love this song....One of the most talented musicians Ive ever heard...Also LOVE the John Mayor trio...Sings love songs then pulls off Hendrix "Band of gypsies" style riffs...Quite a surprise...I'm a big fan now.
still my fave Mayer song followed up with Man On The Side and then Why Did You Mess With Forever
Nearly choked on the tears i was fighting back while listening to this song for the first time at work some years back...Damn, how does JM know?
This song is perfect.
Thank you John. Thank you. God bless my Brother, God bless.
Hauntingly correct.
I heard this song 13 years ago in college - reminded me of the girl that broke my heart then.... learned how to play it in full. Once again it's resurfaced as the song about her... but not the college sweetheart. outstanding tune.
Our love was perfect even with it's flaws. I miss you so very much.
Girl I dated through college... this was our song... I can't listen to it without getting teary eyed... can't hear a single note from it without thinking about her. 6 years ago, and still think about her.
Sadly, we are too different to stay together. So... I live out this song... trying to replace her. But, no one can come close to the feelings I have for her, even though I haven't seen her in years. Every now and then we talk. It's always painful for me.
when I was in college and heard this for the first time in 2004 05 ish my ex and I were fighting and I wrote this down told her it was a poem, and she sent it in and got published in a poem book.. wow I was an asshole hahaha and not creative, but got to say following year I started guitar lessons and first song I learned was daughters was fucking hard to play.. still not creative but I own it and play still ..oh well southwest texas state was a lot of fun I don't regret it!! and she was was hot!!
lol! she got it published? that's hilarious.
that's cool I like that ! I love the lyrics I can't remember what happened last September .. but I'm sure you remind me if you have to ... love those lyrics I think they both got a touch of amnesia....
when they were asked to leave ,,,! love the lyrics I want you back because I never could forget each other completely so much for amnesia hahahahaha
there's many things you can erase ... but true love you cannot erase especially when it was so broken in and comfortable sug damn fucking comfortable
Two 'was', damn she must have really been good looking!
I think John wrote Dear Marie for you as well.
a friend of mine performed this last night & i swear he sounded as good as John Mayer ; such a beautiful song . makes me wannr cry !
This is by far John Mayer's best song
he´s lyrics are so literal... he don´t uses metaphors at all, and its so great! i love he´s lyrics
Taylor swift uses the line "He can't see the smile I'm faking" in one of her songs called "the way i loved you". john says here, "I can't see the smile that she's faking". I think she uses john's music as some inspiration for hers.
Also they were dating back then so this just makes it more interesting now I feel
also in The Way I Loved You she says "I'm comfortable" and "all my single friends are jealous", so similar ideas. I think she was definitely inspired by this song
Rishi Rajeev They were dating in 1999? Because if I’m not mistaken this is the year that he released the Inside Wants Out album. But it doesn’t mean that she could not write a song inspired by that...
@@gingwich 2009, Swift was a kid in 99 lol
2v_5r yea what I’m saying is Taylor swift wrote her song in 2008 which was the year when they were dating. Taylor swift wrote the line about John not the other way around is what I meant.
I think this is the most beautiful song he ever wrote... so sentimental
I miss you Lia, I'm sorry....
Man... it's amazing how deep those 6 words can be.
She never appreciated you anyway. And you know what? YOU kicked HER out. And now that she's gone you're gonna go to Bloomingdales, get you some nice dresses, some shoes, maybe find somewhere you can get a facial... oh, and hire a decorator to come up in here quick cause, DAMN.
I consider myself the most faithful Mayer fan... but this is the first time that I've heard this song. I'm surprised. Love it.
It's been 11 years till today, still reminds of my ex.
i just heard this song today, and i'm in luv with it. the song's so beautiful, and it almost made me cry. This is song is unexplainable, and all i can say is that it's great.
An amazing song
one of the best songs ever written.
the saddest song I've ever heard
It's great to know, that John still preforms this song live.
wow, after reading all the comments i feel like im one of the few ppl who actually knew of this song before miley mentioned it on twitter.
My kid sis introduced me to John Mayers works in 2000, it was her first year in HS. I've followed John ever since, unfortunately saw him just once.
Still affected by my divorce, this track sends chills, tears and good & bad memories deep down. You can never really let that kind of love go 💔
My new favorite song! Can't believe I never heard this one before. It's simply beautiful.
The foolishness we did. It was fun. Im sorry I couldnt forget all the bad. We were comfortable Rey
I love this song! I only have a few John Mayer songs, and I cannot wait to add this to that! He's such a talented artist. Amazing.
"I sleep with this new girl I'm still getting used to". Man those were the days.
I cried. Even though she told me not to. I don't think she knows how perfect she is. Or how much I love her.
"Take one." 0:01
thanks for mentioning this, just get back to 0:01 and turn the volume up to hear that one!
this is such a beautiful song
john mayer is such an amazing song writer!
I miss you Azia.
I'm so sorry my honey yummy bunny.
Absolutely, about the violins. Also, the harmonizing vocals really add a lot to the song. Really listen to them.
yes We were comfortable & so broken.
I am captured by each strum of the guitar, and his words. Thank you JM
This song destroys me.
Destroys me too, man. I think everyone that comes here is a little. Destroyed that is
Yup.
Hit me so hard in 2007, well after its release. It hurts just the same now as it did back then, every time I hear it. 💔
From time to time - music and lyrics will move me to tears.
This just did - thanks
Our love was so broken in.... I want you back I would love that John Mayer😊😀😄😙😙😙😙💘👌👍 Can't remember what went wrong last September and by the way the magazine rack was playboy pin house hustler magazines hahaha At@ fuck that up didn't I 😜😝😛🙋♀️ #JohnMayer ❤
Your mouth was so dirty haha it still is sometimes ....lol @johnmayer #johnmayer 😚😘@love 😎 🌹 You ant seen nothing yet Johnny boy I am bursting loose This Canon ball is fixing to roll 😜😝😛👍

Clay Cook,
Clay Cook,
Clay Cook.
Thanks for posting this, original song.. beautiful!
Now I won’t have to pretend that I’m happy
Cuz I won’t wonder if you’re thinkin’ about her
I liked you
cute glasses, fat Sundays, so charming
wow that's so deep
It's impossible to listen to a john mayer without crying.
do you guys know some songs like this?
이경헌 Man on the side, Sucker, Not Myself (demo ver), Quiet, Victoria, Love song for no one, St Patricks Day.
이경헌 Edge of Desire, Emoji of a Wave, All we ever do is say goodbye, You're gonna live forever in me, In repair 👏🏻👏🏻
이경헌 why did you mess with forever.
I dont trust myself (with loving you), all we ever do is say goodbye, split screen sadness, whiskey whiskey whiskey
2 songs... strangely they have the same name but different artists. Gravity by John Mayer and Gravity by Sara Berielles. Both beautiful!
Great songs, brings back a flood of emotions & great memories of my true love I lost a year ago..
Ha!
Wait 30 years.
It's still the same.
Love hurts
But I can distinguish Miles from Coltrane
This song is amazing. made me cry. I love songs that spark up so much emotion in me.
