Love it, waiting to see the end only to hope I can get to see the love of my life on the other side, got the album, my niece will get some wicked albums to inherite
I found this song on my sister´s phone a few days after she passed away from cancer. This is such a beautifully written song, as hard as it is hear, it has changed my mood endless times. We´ll meet again sister, until then music connects us.
Love you lots grandad. We all miss you so much. My heart hurt so much hearing this song today. It doesn't feel real... I miss your hugs, your laugh and sense of humour. I wish I spent more time with you...I remember playing around your shed with my cousin's and admiring all the hard work you did on your bikes and radios. Rest in peace. Hope wherever you are it has motorbikes and GTA... Love you grandad Steve xx💗
My wife was a big City/ Dallas fan and even though she never heard this song because she passed December 19, 2011 I know she would have absolutely loved it and would have wanted me to listen hard to the lyrics.
Thank you for caring. "Our endless love will remain" You give me hope and I give my respects for your loss. Anybody who loved Dallas green is a friend of mine and I wish you peace and clarity.
Nobody knows what waits for the dead. Though it costs us nothing to believe in faith. Most people do hope that the ever after exists. You and your moving lyrics, genius.
I just lost my Grandmother to her battle with ALS. I thought this was a beautiful song before she passed and added it to the memorial dvd I made at her service. This song hit everyone so hard and today was the first time I’ve been able to hear it without absolutely losing it❤️
😟I'm so sorry for your loss 💔 I hope that you can see their essence in this world whenever you see something that made them happy 💜🕊 I'm sending friendly internet hugs your way💜
New album is absolute gold…… Not sure how Dallas does it but hands down the best band and vocalist of all time. No contest. Thank you Dallas for piercing our souls with you music!!!!!!
I just wanted to say thank you, Dallas Green. this was the best birthday gift I could have ever asked for. words can't explain. I couldn't have asked for more. You continue to keep a smile on my face. all of your music is perfectly perfect. happy birthday to me - September 18th, 1990.
Dallas Green, when you're given a gift like the one you have, you must share it with the world. I'm just in awe of how amazing and touching your music is. I'm going to see you in Detroit and I'm so excited. If you'd play "missing" I would be ever so grateful! City and Colour will always be my favourite band.
I don't know Dallas if you read those comments but if yes then i just want you to know that you've changed my point of view about music and being a musican totally. Thank you for your exist in this world. With You here this world is more beautiful.
Me and my son's dad LOVED this album when it came out and the "If I should go before you" tour was our second concert together. He passed away in 2020 and not long after he passed, this song came on shuffle and I cried my eyes out. I knew it was him.
Just laying here in bed listening to this and it's just made me think how lucky I am to have my wife in my life, can't even begin to think what sort of person I would be without her, feeling truly blessed to of met my soul mate and call her mine, love you babe x
Gah I cannot wait for this album!! Everything down to the sound mix gives me this cathartic feeling of lonesome acceptance. Hurry and the Harm had such an amazing cohesive vibe but I'm optimistic that he'll top it. Still, Bring Me Your Love will live on top forever.
what a talent! i was lucky enough to see you play at massey hall in 08. still the best concert ive ever been to (pink floyd was my first and that was hard to top). cant wait for the new album!!!
LYRICS If I should go before you When that long night comes We'll meet in the edge the after Please don't follow me into the sun If you should cross the white light And find yourself in the black I'll be right there behind you You will have no need to look back And when the night cries itself away Dyin' in the light of day Our endless love will remain Until we meet again If I should go before you Into the great unknown I'll leave my ghost right beside you You won't have to wait alone And when the night cries itself away Dyin' in the light of day Our endless love will remain Until we meet Cryin' ourselves away Dyin' in the light of day Our endless love will remain Until we meet again
This is one of my daughter's favorite bands and Dallas Green, but my son just passed away and it just instantly put my feelings in place and how i felt and what I would tell him...thank you.
Wow -- everything about this is great. Soothing music, penetrating lyrics, and the artistic lens looking at life through the senses and curiosity of the listener/viewer.
90k views only?!! Lucky we know good music! It's ok, ppl will eventually catch up. This song is gonna be a hit someday it gets advertise. Mark my words
If I should go before you When that long night comes We'll meet in the ever after Please don't follow me into the sun If you should cross the white light, and find yourself in the black I'll be right there behind you You'll have no need to look back And when the night cries itself awake Dying in the light of day Our endless love will remain Until we meet again If I should go before you Into the great unknown I'll leave my ghost right beside you You won't have to wait alone And when the night cries itself awake Dying in the light of day Our endless love will remain Until we meet... Crying ourselves awake Dying in the light of day Our endless love will remain Until we meet again.
This song was one my wife listened to often during our engagement. She doesn't love me anymore and I'm losing hope, I don't know why this came back to me, I don't know the band and the lyrics escaped me all these years. This song rips my soul out.
seems I remember listening to an old man many years ago on the PTL (praise the lord) channel one day reciting his poem live on tv. he had written it to his aging wife. he had titled it "if I should go before you". I wonder if this song is based on his poem?

So sorry for your loss!💔
So sorry for your loss and may your sister Rest In Peace! ♥️
I listen to this almost every time I think of Kris. It soothes my heart. Miss her so much.
Love you lots grandad. We all miss you so much. My heart hurt so much hearing this song today. It doesn't feel real... I miss your hugs, your laugh and sense of humour. I wish I spent more time with you...I remember playing around your shed with my cousin's and admiring all the hard work you did on your bikes and radios.

This kills me everytime! Beautiful and makes you want to hold your loved ones close and call your grandparent whos now alone
a frind of mine send me this song the day after my paartner passed away, so right now I'm crying, but still this song is soothing my soul
😟I'm so sorry for your loss 💔
I hope that you can see their essence in this world whenever you see something that made them happy 💜🕊
I'm sending friendly internet hugs your way💜
Memento Mori .... its too beautiful and it leaves me thinking about the ghosts we all have living and dead .. Truly a love song on a higher level.
New album is absolute gold……
Not sure how Dallas does it but hands down the best band and vocalist of all time. No contest. Thank you Dallas for piercing our souls with you music!!!!!!
This song makes me tear up every time I hear it. It's a beautiful song and makes me think of my dad who passed years ago.
I can't wait to listen the album !!!! This guy is the best singer of the entire world, you change my life Dallas!
Great song with a haunting melody...love it!
My stepdad died Oct.10/18 and my Dad passed Oct.11/14 this weekend sucks! This song made me bawl my eyes out!
And I still think this would make the perfect wedding song. 😭
This guy is a true artist. Much love for this guy

Seriously... Cannot listening to this without crying.. So beautiful
Save those tears for when you really need them, cause I don't think people really care much. I understand how you feel though.
This heart-wrenching song has become my personal anthem since the loss of my husband of forty years.
I feel blessed to know the talent that comes from you

I discovered city and colour when I was about 13 or 14. I'm 20 now and his music still gets to me.
Hannah Gamino SAME! But I’m 23 now. Ugh so much love 🥺

Such a beautiful song and what a voice!
Good lord Mr Green... You're killing me here.
Another heart breaker... This and Sleeping Sickness. Right.In.The.Heart.
He's so amazing..
Give his song "little hell" a listen .
This is absolutely gorgeous.
I started to listening to him when Little hell came out. I'm so proud of him, Dallas has come so far.
Damn this man just puts out great song after great song. Truly one of my favorite artists
I can not get enough of this song! Love it!!
❤ if I should go before you, I want this played at my funeral
A friends in the Lord Huron fan club recommended this song and now I am here. Crying.
I love the blues and this is a blues song.
Songs with a lot of meaning in harmony with the instruments is what makes a great song and well this song right here has all that and more
Gah I cannot wait for this album!! Everything down to the sound mix gives me this cathartic feeling of lonesome acceptance. Hurry and the Harm had such an amazing cohesive vibe but I'm optimistic that he'll top it.
Still, Bring Me Your Love will live on top forever.
+Nathan Crenshaw I completely agree, Bring me your love is the greatest
+Nathan Crenshaw love all the albums! but man Sometimes is just so damn amazing!
what a talent! i was lucky enough to see you play at massey hall in 08. still the best concert ive ever been to (pink floyd was my first and that was hard to top). cant wait for the new album!!!
what a beautiful and splendid song!
I needed a good cry.
LYRICS
If I should go before you
When that long night comes
We'll meet in the edge the after
Please don't follow me into the sun
If you should cross the white light
And find yourself in the black
I'll be right there behind you
You will have no need to look back
And when the night cries itself away
Dyin' in the light of day
Our endless love will remain
Until we meet again
If I should go before you
Into the great unknown
I'll leave my ghost right beside you
You won't have to wait alone
And when the night cries itself away
Dyin' in the light of day
Our endless love will remain
Until we meet
Cryin' ourselves away
Dyin' in the light of day
Our endless love will remain
Until we meet again
This is one of my daughter's favorite bands and Dallas Green, but my son just passed away and it just instantly put my feelings in place and how i felt and what I would tell him...thank you.
Your lyrics have a few errors. The words are in the video. Thanks but it’s best to proof before posting.
I wish I could write and produce like this,,holy cow : )
if i was a singer i would sound like a mix of dallas green and paul mccartney
If you should cross the white light and find yourself in the black, I'll be right there behind you... You will have no need to look back...
amazing song & lirycs!!!
Beautiful 😍
This is the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard 😢
pure greatness
No surprise, it's poignant, brilliant, simple, deep, just what I've come to expect ........ thank you.
so full of soul
So good, perfect "chill out by yourself" song.

Wow -- everything about this is great. Soothing music, penetrating lyrics, and the artistic lens looking at life through the senses and curiosity of the listener/viewer.
was amazing hearing this live
Really excellent... Bring on the album...
I'm really loving his new style, like in Hurry And The Harm.
Linda canção como sempre. Dallas me proporcionando fortes emoções.
this song is stunning

If I should go before you

We'll meet in the ever after
Please don't follow me into the sun
If you should cross the white light,
and find yourself in the black
I'll be right there behind you
You'll have no need to look back
And when the night cries itself awake
Dying in the light of day
Our endless love will remain
Until we meet again
If I should go before you
Into the great unknown
I'll leave my ghost right beside you
You won't have to wait alone
And when the night cries itself awake
Dying in the light of day
Our endless love will remain
Until we meet...
Crying ourselves awake
Dying in the light of day
Our endless love will remain
Until we meet again.
I want this song played at my funeral
This has been my favorite song released so far from the album. So good
This song was one my wife listened to often during our engagement. She doesn't love me anymore and I'm losing hope, I don't know why this came back to me, I don't know the band and the lyrics escaped me all these years. This song rips my soul out.
Can't wait to see you in Nashville in December!!!!
Loving these new videos, simple but fitting.
Can't wait to see you live in December!
