You've brought tears to an old man's eyes. I've buried most of my family including several of my children. I've begged God to take me but he keeps me here for now. Your song is the question everyone thinks on in the darkness. God bless you for this. Thank you.
My heart goes out to you. Sending prayers 🙏🏻😢 Beautiful song to remember those we love. You have a purpose … I hope you realize it, no matter how small you may think it might be. It may mean the world to another, even a stranger. 💙
Your response touched me deeply. Sometimes we no longer feel important when so much loss around us crushes our soul. We each are here for a reason. Sometimes hanging on is our reason....and sharing that heartbreak with others so they realize they are not alone.
I’m sorry for all your losses. In our pain we become kinder, more empathetic, and expand our influence of love. We spread these things. In my eyes, God has not taken you yet because you fill the people around you with these things. You are still here for a reason and my gut says you are still giving so much of these positive things.
Beautiful song. My only child died. This song rings true. Hold on and cherish every moment with your children. You don't think it will happen to you.... Until it does
Today my father and I went fishing, just drifting down the Mississippi slowly enjoying nature...Idk how much more time I have with him because he is getting older.... but this song came on and I could hear him tap his foot along with the rhythm....I'll never forget that moment.... the sun was setting and the sky was blazing an amazing hue of colors that was so beautiful 😢and after the song finished the waves lapped against the boat and for a second I remembered every time he took me fishing...and I realized he gave me the greatest gift of all....a wonderful father...and a best friend. I will miss him greatly when he is gone...then it will be my turn to show my kid what it means to be a good father and a good friend...love your family, life's too short to miss an opportunity to share a wonderful moment with them.
I had a wonderful daddy we went fishing on party boats and when he was older & my mom died he came to live with me and I would take him to a fishing pier. I have many pictures I miss him with my broken heart. He was 94 when he died my mom died before him at 81 my son was hit by a bus and died at 21 yrs old. Now I am going thru a divorce after 30 yrs married. Yes I want to go home...
Lyrics: I've been thinking about dying And how it's ganna be My skin and bones give up the ghost And I finally feel my fragile soul And all I am falls into mystery I've been thinking about after And all the folks I wanna see My neighbors says that this is it My daughter says we live again Most of the time I'm somewhere in between Don't the question beg an answer Don't a song beg a dancer Don't you dare Tell me that there Aint more to this There's more to this I've been seeing this life different Ever since you had to go Fragile flowers in a field 60 stories made of steel Birds above and business deals below And I've been thinking about our lifetime Like I never had before 100 years or a 100 days 100 times no difference babe I would always want a 100 more Don't the question beg and answer Don't the song beg a dancer Don't you dare Tell me that there Ain't more to this And don't our tears beg for laughter I promise Ill love you forever So don't you dare Tell me that there Ain't more to this There's more to this
@@paulrosas2302it is just a 4/4 measure. The chords are Am C G Capo on 3rd fret. Picking pattern is bass the string under skip a string then up two strings. For example C is 5th string 4th 2nd 3rd. The chorus changes just a bit by adding an Em and picking up the index finger up on the C and removing the ring finger on the G. Hope this helps if you were asking for guitar.
No words. 5’11. 225lb Tattoed biker. Husband. Dad of 3 epic kids. The 4 things in my life that keep me breathing. Sitting here with tears welling up in my eyes. Powerful.
If this song doesn't hit number ONE... something is definitely wrong in the music industry. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS SONG. I can't get it out of my head. I'm a singer-songwriter.. and I go around singing it all the time. ♥️♥️♥️
I heard this song a few months ago and it immediately grabbed me. Then, the worst day of our lives happened on August 6, 2024. My 19 yo son died in a motorcycle accident. As my wife and I were putting together the slide show for his memorial service, I had to have this song as part of the service. I know for the rest of my life, when I hear this song, I'll think of Nick and probably shed a tear or two. There has to be more to this.
I just heard this song first time tonight. I know you don't know me but I am so sorry for your loss. I won't be able to hear it without thinking of this post. I wish I had wisdom for you on getting thru grief. But I don't. I hope and pray you can do day by day. Again I'm sorry for your loss
You know you’ve found a good song when you listen to it 3 times back to back. This one rocked the empathy guitar within. This one rocked with sadness, joy and hope. Pure gold to my ears
I took care of my mom the remaining two years of her life. I was blessed to witness her conversations with loved ones on the other side. With her eyes closed and the most beautiful smile on her face she continued her conversations not even aware of my presence when I would ask her a question. The most precious moment was when she began speaking to the twin girls my brother and sister-in-law lost at birth. Her voice was so soft and so sweet when she spoke that I began to weep. I believe there is more to this🙏🏻💝
Our mother did the same too. When she said "no more" we believed that her loved ones waiting on her made her decision easier on us to agree with her last request.
I lost my 6 month old daughter to tragedy, and I too have been looking at life completely differently since. To hear your child asking about death and this song coming from it... It's certainly no coincidence. Many people, myself included, needed to hear it. Thank you. Thank you so much for this. Truly.
@@chrisknight1856 😭😭 tearful grown man crying hugs.....😭😭 Lol. On the there is something special to be said about a song, that can reach through the speakers and pluck on the strings of your heart just like that🫰 I think that means that it came from the heart, and was created with heart, but it's such a beautiful thing, I think it goes overlooked a lot. Music is really special, and I don't think we give it the credit that it needs sometimes. Don't get me wrong, most of the music these days is crap and is disheartening, But when you get down to the real music, stuff like this, that was made from somewhere deep down in somebody's Soul.... That just, it touches other people's souls too. It's almost like magic. It's amazing actually. Music can touch our hearts and minds and lives in ways that nothing else can
I’ve been struggling with mental illness since I was 6 years old. I will stay on this earth for the sake of my kids, but when God finally takes me home it will be such a relief to be finally free from this hell. I believe there is something more than this waiting and that keeps me going.
There is definitely more... even in the worst times we each have a purpose. Contribute to positivity.. smile at someone, be kind, give a compliment. Those are the moments that make the greatest impact on our stupid planet ;) You've got this!
Life is rough but you have to learn to embrace the little things. I remember pouting being dragged to Niagara falls with my family as a kid, and now all I want to do is go back so I can really enjoy it. Things change. Keep going.
I've been thinking about dying too, holding onto 30 years of PTSD, seeing old friends is welcoming. Seeing the love in my wife's eyes every time she grips my hand or wipes my tears tells me that there's more to this. I thank you for this song, it helps to keep me going
Gid loves you!! when we have it here so bad just remember that in the Kingdom of our SAVIOR there will be no more sorrow or pain or suffering just in a beautiful place with lots of love and happiness with the one who keeps His promises God bless ya'll 🙏
You have brought tears to my eyes too, my gf just od'ed this morning. She's braindead. She won't be comming back. I'm so broken. This song is beautiful beyond words. Mark I hope you read this and know that your song has uplifted my soul. There is definitely more to this. Thank you.
A friend sent me this link. Today is my dads 🎂 birthday. He died in the tyrannical #19 lockdowns from a hospital acquired illness. Miss him. He was a strong father figure who showed his love through participation and action not words
Buried my best mate, my first love today. One of the hardest days of my life. Came across a clip of this beautiful song on Tik Tock. I now have it on Spotify. The words are exactly how im feeling right this moment. Thank you x
Sending lots of love to you. I’m willing to bet everything I have that this song didn’t accidentally come to you. I’m a 6 year widow - this path is so so hard. Find your strength. Be outside. Take your time. Listen to music. Laugh every chance you get. Lean into your support system. Let your loved ones be the person you would be for them in their time of need. (if you don’t have this - please reach out to a grief support group - you do not have to do this alone. 🌿💚) You are going to discover things about yourself that you never knew were possible. 💪🤟🤝 Remember it is an honor to have loved so fiercely. Grief is just another extension of that love. Travel with it. Embrace it. It may seem as if the world is crashing down every other minute - it doesn’t stop - we just get very good at honoring the waves of fierce love. ❤️ Ever onward, Just Some Internet Stranger 🌷
My homie Nate sent me this song a few months before he died. I think he knew it was coming... i miss you so much Nathan! Thank you for coming into my life and staying as long as you did. You truly were a gift! I love you!
Every once in a while a song comes along that rocks you to your core, "This is one of those songs" The meaning of the song for me runs very long and very deep on a level that I'm not sure anyone can comprehend but me. I would like to let somebody know, whoever is responsible for this work of art there are no words to tell you how grateful I am for this song. ❤️❤️❤️
I can honestly say as a middle aged man and a recovering addict that these questions have been in my mind a lot and they are questions every single person asks sooner or later. Thank you for this amazing song.
I’ve listened to this song five times. Could carry on listening to it forever. Numbers in my age say I’m old, don’t feel old. Body gets old and things get harder but still think I can do them, NO. I want this to be played at my funeral as it is the most positive sone I’ve ever heard about death. I came across this by accident.
I'm listening to this with tears in my eyes. I'm 66 and I'm having thoughts that I should not have. There's a waiting list for mental health services. 3 to 5 years. I figure I'll be in cremation urn B4 that time is up.
It's funny. I was just thinking about my husband, gone now just over two years, very unexpectedly. And how now that life seems more like a strange cartoon than a reality. Just moments later, scrolling through my phone, this song began playing. It's haunting melody grabbed me before you even began singing. Thank you!
I heard this song for the first time today. My father passed when I was young. I felt this song to my core. Cannot stop crying. God bless you for this song. 🙏🏼
I have 2 teens and an uncurable illness. We've talked about death more than once. Not the most pleasant conversation. Your lyrics are genuinely accurate. Been with the same woman for a 1/4 of a century too.
I am 64 years old, and Iost the love of my life, 4 months ago. I don't want to go on without her. I'm tired. I'm lonely. I'm lost. We have 2 sons, in their 20's. I have some things to get in order, to make things easier for them when I'm gone... And then, I'll be ready to go. I pray to God that everything we've been told is true, and that I'll be with my beautiful wife again. My life has lost its joy without her. I don't want to be here without her. 😢
But if she’s looking down she would want you to try to be happy remember the good times and carry on . Same if it was the other way round . Loss is a tragic part of life . Don’t wish your life away . Talk to her . She’s probably listening mate . I talk to me deceased mother and father all the time
I lost my soulmate best friend nd true love two yrs ago and felt like you do but please reconsider I won’t lie and say the pain ever stops or the fear or the million ways you get gut punched every day but it morphs into something livable and your sons need you.
Keep your head up death is supposed to be a beautiful thing let life take its course my deepest condolences for your loss and I believe everyone will reunite one day
My mom died on Jan 22, 2024. This song came at just the right time. Love that the sound on this final version is like your first raw version on the stairwell! 💯
Excuse me but I think I just fell in love. Unsure what I needed more. The finger picking. The lyrics. The depth. The purity. The harmonica. I needed this. I so needed this.
Ran across you and this song and then this pure version. My heart is broken and in rapture at the same time. Beyond beautiful. So incredibly soulful and real. Thank you 🙏🏻
WOW! Congratulations on such a great song! When my daughter was five she asked me about death too. I was not prepared for the conversation that followed. That was a long time ago, but I will never forget that day.
First time hearing this beautiful song shedding tears for my mother who will pass over soon from terminal illness. Rest in peace Mum, i love you so much i miss you already . My heart aches
I just buried my dad, both parents are gone and a baby sister. Your song touched me deeply, God bless. I found this song by watching your UA-cam short version. Its really good.
This song is beautiful and everyone can relate to these words. The physical death is so tough on us emotionally but we must always remember, the Soul lives on forever. We are energy and we will always shine. ❤
Yesterday, I got the news that a dear friend died after a short but difficult battle with illness. “Don’t our tears beg for laughter” - my memories of him, almost every single one, are full of bellyaching laughter, the kind where your eyes can’t help but fill with tears. I’m not sure that the timing of this song crossing my path is entirely a coincidence or algorithmic happenstance. Thank you for this song. Hug your loved ones tight.
I been waiting all week for this song to come out to show my grandfather. Me and him are both musicians, and he likes more classical stuff, and he absolutely loved it. Keep working on your passion, brother truly its a inspiration to all musicians of all ages.
I was thinking that also. Very "dylanesq" if you will. As a 51 year old I've listened to lots of Dylan. What an amazing songwriter he is amazing. I think I'd give Lucas the edge in his voice, though. I think that song "Girl from the north country fair" done with Johnny Cash is one of my personal faves.
I know its hard. I know this world is in crisis, but showing up with your gentle strength every day will melt the blades. The power of the people with heart will prevail. ❤ also, beautiful song.
I’m with you on the shows direction. It’s kind of meandered the last couple seasons. I hope they can bring it full close, without a GoT debacle of a final episode.
There are just some songs you hear and they’re like a swift punch to the gut of emotions in the best way possible. This is one of them. Thank you for writing this, it’ll be a song that will stick with me for a lifetime.
This is the goddamn best song i have heard in a very long time. My mother was a depressed hippie, but she always put on good music like muddy waters. I guess what i am trying to say is that this fells like a classic already. Good job!
Thank you for this great song that has touched so many lives and will touch many more. I am grateful for artists like you that bring us together. I am grateful to all the wonderful people that comment and share with us all.
Thank you for putting into words what my heart feels. 💔💔💔 I attempted to save my father's life, and failed. I saw the silken bonds of life leave his body...I will never be the same.
I played 15 songs in a bar last night. Good songs, great meaningful lyrics. But none come near the relevance and beauty of this song. It will now be forever part of any song list I carry into anywhere I play! Thank u, utterly beautiful!
This song moved me to tears and left me totally speechless. How can this possibly be the first time I’ve ever heard of you? Thank you from the bottom of my heart from a new, but old in years, devoted fan.
My father said that it takes a special kind of person to be a nurse and I agreed. I would like to add, that it takes an extra special kind of person to be a hospice nurse. Thank you for being extra special. 🙏
I love this! I really wanna here the full version of the sound of you in the reel you made for instagram. It feels so much more real. This version is amazing but that reel just made me feel it so much more.
You've brought tears to an old man's eyes. I've buried most of my family including several of my children. I've begged God to take me but he keeps me here for now. Your song is the question everyone thinks on in the darkness. God bless you for this. Thank you.
My heart goes out to you. Sending prayers 🙏🏻😢
Beautiful song to remember those we love. You have a purpose … I hope you realize it, no matter how small you may think it might be. It may mean the world to another, even a stranger. 💙
Your response touched me deeply. Sometimes we no longer feel important when so much loss around us crushes our soul. We each are here for a reason. Sometimes hanging on is our reason....and sharing that heartbreak with others so they realize they are not alone.
God bless you brother! I pray you get to see them again!
JESUS IS THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE..AMEN!!
I’m sorry for all your losses. In our pain we become kinder, more empathetic, and expand our influence of love. We spread these things. In my eyes, God has not taken you yet because you fill the people around you with these things. You are still here for a reason and my gut says you are still giving so much of these positive things.
Finally a song that resonates with every single person. Something with real meaning. It's beyond beautiful. A classic in itself.
A truly sublime work of art- this is different. This is special
✨️♥️✨️
This is so good but you must hear “Live Not Survive” or “Winding Road” by SLT 🤘🎶🎹
Ren-Hi Ren
Another world wide resonate
Thanks sister...well stated.
A man a guitar , his foot and a harmonica . Just goes to show the best music is pretty simple .
Ain’t that the truth
I thought the exact same thing, And his voice. Simple, peaceful, perfect.
Yes and so is Dylan. The master
Puro talento, sin duda
Taping my foot w him too . Pure perfection
“Fragile flowers in a field
60 stories made of steel
Birds above and business deals below”
Brilliant.
Ditto
Ima probably listen to this a million times. Caught me at one of those times
Amen!!!
Sorry for me this is the part of the song that makes no sense to me. its beautiful don't get me wrong , seems like it belongs in another song,
…I would always want a hundred more…
Blown away by this song, I'm telling everyone about you and this song.
Likewise I've shared it to everyone that'll lsiten
Same for sure,
Me too….posted it and shared to close friends
Yeah, same here!! Love it
That's great ❤
Beautiful song. My only child died. This song rings true. Hold on and cherish every moment with your children. You don't think it will happen to you.... Until it does
💙🙏🏼
😢
Your child is with you everyday. And with you and watching ❤
Sorry for your loss ❤️
God bless you. You WILL be reunited in your one true home.
Today my father and I went fishing, just drifting down the Mississippi slowly enjoying nature...Idk how much more time I have with him because he is getting older.... but this song came on and I could hear him tap his foot along with the rhythm....I'll never forget that moment.... the sun was setting and the sky was blazing an amazing hue of colors that was so beautiful 😢and after the song finished the waves lapped against the boat and for a second I remembered every time he took me fishing...and I realized he gave me the greatest gift of all....a wonderful father...and a best friend. I will miss him greatly when he is gone...then it will be my turn to show my kid what it means to be a good father and a good friend...love your family, life's too short to miss an opportunity to share a wonderful moment with them.
You made me cry thinking of my dad and everything he taught me❤😢
Thank you for writing this. So poignant and so true
Yes I know where ur coming from I was 2 lost my dad and mom am still recovering from my past
Beautifully said. You caused a little tug on my heart. ❤😊
I had a wonderful daddy we went fishing on party boats and when he was older & my mom died he came to live with me and I would take him to a fishing pier. I have many pictures I miss him with my broken heart. He was 94 when he died my mom died before him at 81 my son was hit by a bus and died at 21 yrs old. Now I am going thru a divorce after 30 yrs married. Yes I want to go home...
While fighting cancer, when I listen to this, it seems like he wrote it for me. Thank you.
You got this!! I’m a 16 year survivor, my daughter was 5 at the time, she was my medicine, praying for you!! 🙏🙏🙏
🫂
Keep fighting !
Keep that focus you're healthy and vital in that strong mind of yours ❤ you definitely have got this ❤
Be strong, you will make it… With you in the distance ❤
Lyrics:
I've been thinking about dying
And how it's ganna be
My skin and bones give up the ghost
And I finally feel my fragile soul
And all I am falls into mystery
I've been thinking about after
And all the folks I wanna see
My neighbors says that this is it
My daughter says we live again
Most of the time I'm somewhere in between
Don't the question beg an answer
Don't a song beg a dancer
Don't you dare
Tell me that there
Aint more to this
There's more to this
I've been seeing this life different
Ever since you had to go
Fragile flowers in a field
60 stories made of steel
Birds above and business deals below
And I've been thinking about our lifetime
Like I never had before
100 years or a 100 days
100 times no difference babe
I would always want a 100 more
Don't the question beg and answer
Don't the song beg a dancer
Don't you dare
Tell me that there
Ain't more to this
And don't our tears beg for laughter
I promise Ill love you forever
So don't you dare
Tell me that there
Ain't more to this
There's more to this
Can you add the chords to the lyrics?

Marc, your "short" caught my attention yesterday and now hearing the complete song I am hooked!! Wow!☆ ❤❤👏👏👏👏👏
Same here.
You know you’ve found a good song when you listen to it 3 times back to back. This one rocked the empathy guitar within. This one rocked with sadness, joy and hope. Pure gold to my ears
Back to back a few more times than three, lol!! Can't hear this enough.
Same with me. I love this song and believe the same!
It's not often that a song leaves me speechless. Real art makes people feel, this song is real art. Nicely done sir.

Our new Bruce Springsteen,I'm listening to this on repeat for hours and I can't stop.you have soul my friend.thank you for restoring mine.❤
Reminds me of "Devils and dust" from Springsteen. Great voice
The short also made me stop n listen. Then, I found this. I don't subscribe to much on Tube. This man's music is an exception. Thank you.

My homie Nate sent me this song a few months before he died. I think he knew it was coming... i miss you so much Nathan! Thank you for coming into my life and staying as long as you did. You truly were a gift! I love you!
Every once in a while a song comes along that rocks you to your core, "This is one of those songs" The meaning of the song for me runs very long and very deep on a level that I'm not sure anyone can comprehend but me. I would like to let somebody know, whoever is responsible for this work of art there are no words to tell you how grateful I am for this song. ❤️❤️❤️
I can honestly say as a middle aged man and a recovering addict that these questions have been in my mind a lot and they are questions every single person asks sooner or later. Thank you for this amazing song.
Shared this song everywhere. Gotta be the most beautiful song I have heard in a long time.
MORE LIKE THIS! REFLECTIVE, GENUINE, THOUGHTFUL, AMAZING! Great work!
I agree 💯!!
I’ve listened to this song five times. Could carry on listening to it forever. Numbers in my age say I’m old, don’t feel old. Body gets old and things get harder but still think I can do them, NO. I want this to be played at my funeral as it is the most positive sone I’ve ever heard about death. I came across this by accident.
I'm listening to this with tears in my eyes. I'm 66 and I'm having thoughts that I should not have. There's a waiting list for mental health services. 3 to 5 years. I figure I'll be in cremation urn B4 that time is up.
It's funny. I was just thinking about my husband, gone now just over two years, very unexpectedly. And how now that life seems more like a strange cartoon than a reality. Just moments later, scrolling through my phone, this song began playing. It's haunting melody grabbed me before you even began singing. Thank you!
I'm with my family that's no longer here every time I hear this. And my tears are just love I never got to express. Thank you for this ❤
Very Springsteen Nebraska vibe. Except this is even better. What an amazing song. I'm speechless with tear filled eyes.
Man. Even more beautiful and haunting in the stairwell. Thank you.
I could feel the presence of God. Perfection.
I lost my sister in December23 and this just gives me such a beautiful feeling when I think of her thank you Marc this is helping me heal.
This song makes grown men want to cry. And that's when we know this is true art and there's nothing more to add.
Yes sir !
I heard this song for the first time today. My father passed when I was young. I felt this song to my core. Cannot stop crying. God bless you for this song. 🙏🏼
I have 2 teens and an uncurable illness. We've talked about death more than once. Not the most pleasant conversation. Your lyrics are genuinely accurate. Been with the same woman for a 1/4 of a century too.
Have to jump in quick and say....i love this guy ! Love it ! First listen 🙏
Vulnerable and pure as the best folk songs usually are. Thank you for sharing this with us.
I am 64 years old, and Iost the love of my life, 4 months ago. I don't want to go on without her. I'm tired. I'm lonely. I'm lost. We have 2 sons, in their 20's. I have some things to get in order, to make things easier for them when I'm gone... And then, I'll be ready to go. I pray to God that everything we've been told is true, and that I'll be with my beautiful wife again. My life has lost its joy without her. I don't want to be here without her. 😢
But if she’s looking down she would want you to try to be happy remember the good times and carry on . Same if it was the other way round . Loss is a tragic part of life . Don’t wish your life away . Talk to her . She’s probably listening mate . I talk to me deceased mother and father all the time
I lost my soulmate best friend nd true love two yrs ago and felt like you do but please reconsider I won’t lie and say the pain ever stops or the fear or the million ways you get gut punched every day but it morphs into something livable and your sons need you.
Luv ya bro!!
Keep your head up death is supposed to be a beautiful thing let life take its course my deepest condolences for your loss and I believe everyone will reunite one day
The weird thing is I have been having thoughts about my own death, not suicide, just about getting older and passing.
My mom died on Jan 22, 2024. This song came at just the right time. Love that the sound on this final version is like your first raw version on the stairwell! 💯
Your mom is always with you now in your heart ❤
Today we are here, tomorrow perhaps not. It s in God s hand.
So love, care and enjoy to each other.
Life is a gift.
This song is so beautiful. Amazing job!!!
Excuse me but I think I just fell in love. Unsure what I needed more. The finger picking. The lyrics. The depth. The purity. The harmonica. I needed this. I so needed this.
I can’t get enough of this song. The world should hear it. ❤
Ran across you and this song and then this pure version. My heart is broken and in rapture at the same time. Beyond beautiful. So incredibly soulful and real. Thank you 🙏🏻
WOW! Congratulations on such a great song! When my daughter was five she asked me about death too. I was not prepared for the conversation that followed. That was a long time ago, but I will never forget that day.
Dude made me cry...this is the most beautiful song I've ever heard...
First time hearing this beautiful song shedding tears for my mother who will pass over soon from terminal illness. Rest in peace Mum, i love you so much i miss you already . My heart aches
This song deserves to be on the charts. Best fraking song I've heard in ages....
I just buried my dad, both parents are gone and a baby sister. Your song touched me deeply, God bless. I found this song by watching your UA-cam short version. Its really good.
My husband passed away 6 months ago. This song hits me hard. Thank you
This song is meant to be spread across the world, absolutely wonderful! Love from Sweden 🇸🇪 ❤

I can’t stop listening to this masterpiece ❤ it is hauntingly beautiful ❤
This song is beautiful and everyone can relate to these words. The physical death is so tough on us emotionally but we must always remember, the Soul lives on forever. We are energy and we will always shine. ❤
Stumbled across this on a short.
Absolutely fantastic song. Shared it with my family before I even heard it all.
Yesterday, I got the news that a dear friend died after a short but difficult battle with illness. “Don’t our tears beg for laughter” - my memories of him, almost every single one, are full of bellyaching laughter, the kind where your eyes can’t help but fill with tears. I’m not sure that the timing of this song crossing my path is entirely a coincidence or algorithmic happenstance. Thank you for this song.
Hug your loved ones tight.
Love this song. Lost my husband 2yrs ago. I sure hope There's More To This ❤ You have a Bob Dillon sound.
One of the best songs I heard for a long time. I will sing this on my acoustic shows. Very genuine. Should be on the Billboard !!!!
This song is truly brilliant. Feels like the long lost sequel to the acoustic version of I'm on Fire
Where has this guy been! Bravo. I’ll start listening to him now for sure. 👍👍👍
Life weighs heavier on those meant to fly
Truth!
Beautiful, Sir. Very, very beautiful.
I been waiting all week for this song to come out to show my grandfather. Me and him are both musicians, and he likes more classical stuff, and he absolutely loved it. Keep working on your passion, brother truly its a inspiration to all musicians of all ages.
Put the lid back on the onions! Beautiful! Thanks for sharing it with us.
I'll say it since no one else is - he is a Bob Dylan for our day - beautiful, powerful and timeless - this song will live forever
I was thinking that also. Very "dylanesq" if you will. As a 51 year old I've listened to lots of Dylan. What an amazing songwriter he is amazing. I think I'd give Lucas the edge in his voice, though.
I think that song "Girl from the north country fair" done with Johnny Cash is one of my personal faves.
I know its hard. I know this world is in crisis, but showing up with your gentle strength every day will melt the blades. The power of the people with heart will prevail. ❤ also, beautiful song.
Lost in the lyrics. The harmony takes you to somewhere else altogether. Wonderful 💚♾️
My new fovourite singer with a beautiful soul and voice to match....must listen to him everyday
Pure Gold. I could see this in a Yellowstone montage in the final season. Or the final song for the whole series. Beautiful
I thought the same thing .. while I lost interest in the show it’s turned me on to some great artists… this guy here is simply brilliant though
I’m with you on the shows direction. It’s kind of meandered the last couple seasons. I hope they can bring it full close, without a GoT debacle of a final episode.
I’m going to play this song for my two boys, 11 and 13, when I finally get home this week.
There are just some songs you hear and they’re like a swift punch to the gut of emotions in the best way possible. This is one of them. Thank you for writing this, it’ll be a song that will stick with me for a lifetime.
God bless you ! Every now and than a special song comes along and this is one them .
Straight to to the heart ❤
Wow just found this song. Beautiful, and I totally believer there is more to this…
I'm missing my daughter so much right now I lost her 5-27-23. I'm raising her beautiful daughter. She looks and acts just like her.
This is the goddamn best song i have heard in a very long time. My mother was a depressed hippie, but she always put on good music like muddy waters. I guess what i am trying to say is that this fells like a classic already. Good job!
That was outstanding Marc! I've been feeling the same since I lost my parents and sister. Thank you for helping me deal with this special song ❤
Thank you for this great song that has touched so many lives and will touch many more. I am grateful for artists like you that bring us together. I am grateful to all the wonderful people that comment and share with us all.
Sometimes art just needs to exist. You were blessed with this.
Holy shit, that was so good. What an amazing song and performance. Tears and goosebumps. Headed back in for another listen.
Thank you for putting into words what my heart feels. 💔💔💔 I attempted to save my father's life, and failed. I saw the silken bonds of life leave his body...I will never be the same.
I played 15 songs in a bar last night. Good songs, great meaningful lyrics. But none come near the relevance and beauty of this song. It will now be forever part of any song list I carry into anywhere I play! Thank u, utterly beautiful!
Beautiful song Marc! Thank you so much. Much love!
This song moved me to tears and left me totally speechless. How can this possibly be the first time I’ve ever heard of you? Thank you from the bottom of my heart from a new, but old in years, devoted fan.
I love this song. I am a retired hospice nurse.
My father said that it takes a special kind of person to be a nurse and I agreed. I would like to add, that it takes an extra special kind of person to be a hospice nurse. Thank you for being extra special. 🙏
Thank you. From the bottom of my heart.
I love this! I really wanna here the full version of the sound of you in the reel you made for instagram. It feels so much more real. This version is amazing but that reel just made me feel it so much more.
