Artist: Tonic
Album: Lemon Parade
Release: 1996
LYRICS:
If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me
Well you've got your reasons
And you've got your lies
And you've got your manipulations
They cut me down to size
Sayin' you love but you don't
You give your love but you won't
If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me
Seems the road less traveled
Show's happiness unraveled
And you got to take a little dirt
To keep what you love
That's what you gotta do
Sayin' you love but you don't
You give your love but you won't
You're stretching out your arms to something that's just not there.
If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me
Sayin' you love but you don't
You give your love but you won't
Sayin' you love where you stand
Give your heart but you won't
If you could only see the way she loves me
Then maybe you would understand
Why I feel this way about our love
And what I must do
If you could only see how blue her eyes can be when she says
When she says she loves me
DOES ANYONE ELSE MISS THE 90's SO BADLY THEY CAN TASTE IT?! I feel both sad, nostalgic, and so incredibly happy when I hear this kind of music. One day, I swear this kind of music will return to style. It's so much better than the music they play on the radio today. Not that all modern stuff is bad. It's just that 90's music was SO MUCH BETTER!
damn your comment resonates with how i feel when i hear 90s music especially this song sad, nostalgic, and happy..warm sun kissed memories of days gone as a child.
@@MrTraderon who?
ABOUT THAT....
Yes, Heather...
Amen, amen...
(tries not to cry)
Nostalgic?
I love how the guitars sound like they're crying in this song.
I love it when guitars do that
Same
Slide guitar
*While my guitar gently weeps~*
Amazing tone
My husband called a DJ and request
this song for me. I think this is a great song and means a lot to me. We have been married 27 years and I still love him.
How sweet 🤗
This song isn't romantic..
90's music was absolutely tapped in to a persons emotions. I'm so grateful to have grown up during that time.
Not all of it. C+C Music Factory and the rest of that garbage was not like this. Memories are short and convenient.
This song after all those years, brings tears in my eyes. One of my favorites.
I like you comment you seem real
I was raised on 60 music but i like this to
Absolutely cant get enough
Who cares idiot
@@MickeysGrenade lol seek help
What is truly mind boggling is today's youth(most) just don't GET ANYTHING AT ALL OUT OF HEARING A BEAUTIFUL ACOUSTIC GUITAR OR POWERFUL, THICK GUITAR CHORD RINGING OUT TO THE HEAVENS! The power and emotion that comes from a chunky riff, an electrifying solo, a distorted six string cutting through the air, commanding attention. I mean, how can anyone with earholes not be moved by that?!?!?!
I respect a song that starts out with chorus. Really sets the tone for the rest of the song.
This song envokes such undescribable feeling in me. Forever timeless
Same.. takes my breath away
"When you gotta take a little dirt to keep what u love. Oh it's what u gotta do mmmm"
With the crying slide guitar sound in the background. SO memorable in my mind . So 90s
I don't understand why it was Godflesh and whatever it was for me in the late 2010s.
A very well crafted song that aged nicely.
songs are made to capture souls. they go as deep as the hidden truth in all of us. they dig and they find the true us. the real meaning of who we are and what we are all about without the lies, fake and illusions. I personally deeply love music. I always find my place, my peace and my refuge to it. hope you feel the same, take care yourself and each other. love, peace and harmony
Ricardo Pierre
Ricardo Pierre .....Beautiful!!! music helps to heal my soul.
you are a beautiful human being
A Fucking Men Brother!!!
Nice ..FUCK DONALD TRUMP AND HIS SUPPORTERS ruining harmony and America
I was born in 1989, but I love 90s music. It's something about the vibe that each genre had. :)
I just like 1990’s alternative rock like this
Me too. So much of it was passionate. A frontman singing from a raw place ... this song is sooo beautiful.
Born in 67...lol i enjoyed the 90s music too! The 80s were great as well...man they knew what was going on in the world. So relavent to today! Crazy
But this song has become my litteral favorite. The drum beat is so sick. LOVE the double bass drumbs.
This is before the Satanists took over the industry. That's why it feels so empty now. 😔
I was born 95 & I love 90 & early 2000 music 💕
Music in the early/mid 90's was pretty good but considering the music from 2000 and after, this sounds fucking great.
Yes!
Totally agree
Totally agree!!
It's all polyester pop these days. Rock died somewhere after the 90's.
Dude it's all fashion, fashion and communication. You take the cameras out of everything, the desire comes back
I heard this song a few times in passing growing up and have been looking for this song and the band for over 25years. I heard it again at work today and opened soundhound immediately. Today was a Great Day.
Yep. Hearing this song again has gotta be one of the reasons I survived my youth, middle age, and, so far, my “old” age.
At 66 this song moves me like a freight train.
Peace, ya’ll.
Takes me back, I was a teen when this came out. And some of you are rude...of course 90s kids are being nostalgic to this song, nothing wrong with that.
Nope-nothing wrong with that at all. Those were so much better times than these...
now days the kids are domanding and think there better them other people
+Dennis Parker Jr (JR) .
I absolutely LOVE 90s music! I'm currently 15 and I wish I was a 90s baby... sometimes.
if you could only seeeeee....
The 90s - early 2k had to have been the best year in all of human existence from music, to games, tv, cost of living, etc just so good
Old man here …. And then September 11th…. Changed a lot…
By the way I Love the 90’s and early 2000’s music. A daily staple for me ❤️
This song was part of a great decade of 90's music.
Agreed👍
One of the best songs ever written. Period.
Miss the 90s : the last great decade of music ❤
Truly was
Early 00s had some good stuff too.
Every 10 years that gets bumped by 10 years. For a lot of us.. it was the 80's or maybe earlier. interesting.
@@ariannapac6535 ml
80's and 90's period!
2020 && this is still 🔥🔥🔥
REMINDS ME OF EARLY 2000s wit no cable just the radio in the HARD TIMES but the music always made it worth while!!!! miss younger days!!!🐣🐤🐥🐦
Didn't cable TV come out in the 70s?
This music is rare now, and I'm glad I was apart of it in the 90's.
It's unpredictable that it will come back into 'fashion' with all these new electronic musical instruments getting popular. You can imagine 15 years from now, showing your kids this music. "What did you listen to back then... how boring is this..".
We were lucky enough to live this music :)
I was born in 2008. It's really a pain not being able to experience the 90's (and 80's). I'm thankful that music streaming services exist so that I could experience the music though I wasn't alive during those times. ☺️
look out!!! I'm on a nostalgia trip, lets see how deep this rabbit hole goes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Carl Zimmerman tell mark i said sup
Yo MAMA!
Carl Zimmerman to the center of the earth and back ...also to the moon and back....and also to the ends of the earth and back....
"The proverbial rabbit hole"
Carl Zimmerman just me and my 23 owls
hey diddo
Guitars are great, love the echoing one during/right after "If you could only see..."
Brings me back to childhood, I remember my big brother buying this and us jamming out together. Back when life was simple...
Dwight Hoffmann This song brings back alot of memories for me too. I miss the 90s! 😞
I miss them so much. I think I am stuck in the 90's though I don't give a fuck what people think. I love my music.
Nikki G hell yeah!
Right? Back when life was simple...I thought I loved this song back then. Even better now
Dwight Hoffmann this is still a great song to this day
This song really takes me back to a better time..
Tony Hawk the best sale in the whole
2019 and going... LONG LIVE 90s ALTERNATIVE ROCK 🤙✊
Ohhh yeah KICKIN IT!!
I’m going too! She is waiting!
Amen
Hell yes to the fuckin 90's❤❤❤❤❤❤
Hell yea
Say you love but you don't but you won't give love. My favorite line in this.
Is this really 26 years old?? No way, only seems like yesterday it came out. Still a timeless pearler of a song. ❤️
It's so weird to see all these old bands. They've gone through their histories, their success and heartbreaks. Hell, Tonic quit in 2004 but reassembled in 2008.
It's magical isn't it?
R.I.P 90's...
I swear that the 90's had the greatest era of music..
My husband sent me this song! It means more than i can ever say to me! We had been in really bad marriages before and found a love u cant deny! I love you Baby!
👍👍 I'm happy for you guy's. Hopefully it stays that way.
Absolutely one of the Best songs ever from the 90's!!!
Addicted to this song
One of my favorite 90s songs
+Lizzy Harper Me too!
Well, you’re one of my favorite 90s people!
I revisit classics from time to time...heard this song recently on a cheap little shitty sounding FM radio out in the sticks camping...I cant believe I slept on this beautiful track for so many years! ❤️
Some of my favorite memories of songs on cheap little battery powered fm radio
That guitar solo after he say that last part when she says she loves me rlly hits my heart for sum reason.
Never really realized before, how the music behind the vocals is pretty chaotic; the tones melt into each other so well though that instead of sounding messy or unnerving, the music comes out kind of shifting and glimmery. Nice.
Great comment on a classic late '90's song.
this song was beautiful, and beautifully written....
Everyone, I dont care how old they are, if this comes on in the car, they're singing the chorus, lol..
This song brings me back to working as a dishwasher at a local restaurant in high school. It smells like a kitchen making pasta, pizza, and cheesesteaks.
still love this song all these years later
No rock era like the 90s, hard to top!
LIVESTOCK - ZEPHYRHILLS FLA !!
80s
Impossible to top😂
This song should be celebrated for it's excellence. Its vintage-dated, fermented in the bottle.
A search for "Handlebars" by Flobots turned into a search for "Shimmer" by Fuel, which led me to this song that I forgot how much I loved, as it was in related videos, and now I see more songs I forgot how much I loved in this video's related videos. I love UA-cam.
+Shannon Redman Those times thought would never end....
Sometimes really wish they didn't.
A very powerful track. My life echoes with these tunes.... as a 90's kid, after all....
hell yeah! that's one of the reasons I like UA-cam as well! I love the nineties! it brings me back!
Shoutout to all of the uploaders for the 90's rock music
it’s 2022. and i still listen to this wonderful piece
Outside has a very personal meaning to me. It reaches deep into my soul and disrupts my harmony in a beautiful way only music can
Went to watch them live Thursday here, in San Jose, music in the park. And yes, they sound just as awesome live as they do here.
Damn I forget how much the 90s did kick ass. What the hell happened to Rock?
European American it died literally... :(
Illuminati
What do you mean? Maroon 5 are doing a great job of keeping rock n roll alive!!
(Just fucking kidding!)
@@itsmedante.5325 I was gonna say wtf?...actually I could tell it was a joke!
Yeah tbh I miss those rock vibes from songs. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate modern pop music as well
But those rock songs are the ones that will always be timeless for me. Those songs will never go out of style. This song was released so long ago and yet it's 2021 and I'm still here.. It'll be 2043 and I'll still be here listening😌
This song gives me chillllss
Acidic Marisa Yup, the kind of chills that are good to get
I miss the 90s
Another gr8 90s song u almost forget about until u hear it out of nowhere.....This Music Dscribes what The 90s was all about...Originality/Creativity/Heart/Soul
*Total overwhelming love for someone even if it isn't in return.
Miss those days
A classic that I can listen to over and over again.
Parental disapproval of your relationship doesn’t just prove painful when you’re underage. The berating and unsolicited advise still happens afterwards and it’s not to be discounted. It still screws with your head big time. This song stands as a reminder of that.
Great song.! music , technology and the world were evolving at a headspinning pace in the late 90s. The world was changing all around us. I was 22 years old when this song came out. What a time to be alive and young and irresponsible. This sound was raw, honest, brand new and exciting like all the unknowns that lied ahead of me. This song moves me profoundly for some reason
All the suggested videos in the sidebar. I'm crying that I can't get to all of them.. Live, Candlebox, and Vertical Horizon..
i wish i could bring the days of the 90's back! i miss the best decade i know
Love this song !
SO MANY EMOTIONS
damn, i feel old.

“Music is a Reflection of Self Just Let Our Spirits Live On Through Our Lyrics You Hear In Our Songs”
Eminem
"You're stretching out your arms to something that's just not there..."
Classic lyrics!
I graduated High School in 92 ... The Music back in the 80's and 90's so much Better...
90's rock song still rocks!
Damn this song reminds me of so much. And so much that I'd like to go back to.
Since I was only 3 years old In 1996, I wasn't old enough to have any stand out memories of this song. However, this is one of my favorite songs lately. So much better than a lot of today's top 40 that's being shoved down our throats.
This released in 97' but recorded 96'.
Oh how this takes me back to a time when pop music was tolerable. To a time when Leonardo DiCaprio was on the cover of every magazine in America claiming to be "The King Of The World" and The Spice Girls were topping the music charts around the world. To a time where boys owned either a copy of Goldeneye 007 for the N64 or Final Fantasy 7 for the PS1, and If you didn't own a copy of "Yourself or Someone Like You" by Matchbox 20.or "Third Eye Blind" by Third Eye Blind you were a nobody.
To a time where people wondered "Who Killed Jonbenet Ramsey?", just as much as who killed Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls, or what's tonight episode of 7th heaven gonna be about? To a time where Nickelodeon was truly "The Network For Kids" and every preteen girl idolized, Larisa Oleynik just as much as they do Miranda Cosgrove now. and finally, to a time when Cartoonetwork was Cartoonetwork not CN and Space Ghost Coast to Coast was the closest thing to Adult Swim.
Yes, I believe that year was 1997, and I was just starting Kindergarten. Fuck I can't Believe that's been 17 years ago.
i am applauding you in real life. thank you for this comment.
Your welcome.
^^ what he said, thank you.
I got hooked on this album playing goldeneye 007 while playing this in my headset lol. One of my all time FAVORITE albums!!
Aqua Man Those were indeed good times.
Meu, que música boa pra viajar 😎✔
How does this not have more views? Humanity doesn't appreciate a masterpiece anymore.
Exactly, their brains appreciate what is pushed on instagram
I havent heard this song in forever! love it!! thanks you-tube!
+sassie cassie Yes...I LOVE this song.
+Bill A right!
+sassie cassie Reasons why I put up with youtube's ads. They have everything I love now and used to love back then. I find blasts from my past and I find new things nobody has heard (yet ;D)
Cassandra Lynn26 Good song to have sex with...if I can ever rememberto put in music before hand
Oh the memories!! I sang this like crazy while jumping around my bedroom. Sweet sweet times.
i was only 2 years old when this was bought out but the first time i heard it i loved it and still do definitely one of my favourites =D
I remember playing this on Band Hero! I was obsessed! 😭 childhood memories!
Wow this song is fantastic the 90's music rocked.
Seriously wish everyone would see how amazing this song is
Take off the mask, you virtue-signaling retard.
Sometimes this song Makes me think of a lot of things i don't know why
This song was released on April 30, 1997, and became a number-one hit on the Billboard Mainstream Rock Tracks chart and reached number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 Airplay chart, where it spent 63 weeks on the chart. Born in 1984 and am a 90s kid at heart!
Man took me a long time to listen to this again.
I love tonic
James Hicks contractio
,
Still one of my favorites from that second childhood of mine in the 90s. Just heard it on the radio again…
"And you've got your manipulations to cut me down to size"......... best lyrics.....fuck you very much!
Don't......! Not now.
Loved this back in 1997. Holy shit
Ricardo Pierre you said exactly the way I feel about music. Thank you for those words of wisdom.
I was spillin my bloodfor this countries freedom when this music came out. Never appreciated the alt gen music. But wow. Lifes expeiences taught me to cherrish it all. Music is a release of all that has built up over 50 years. The songs you dont care for now will leave their mark on you in the latter years, if you really Love it for what it is. All be well.
Thank you sir !
best tonic song ever! I think.
love this tune...and band!
The 90s… bluer sky’s, air smells nice, feels good. Radio music was fire all the way around. People actually lived instead of orienting for everything
I don't come here so often, they are positives and negatives because we are people and as people, we have the right to our opinions and I respect that. For those, who have so many positive things to say, I want to thank and let you know that my heart is wide open to you wish you all great things in life. For those with negative commons, I also freely open my heart to you and wish you all the great things in life. We are living in a society where hate, pain, violence taking over our lives. we are no longer save to the safest place on earth, school, churches, airports and even our home. we can choose to live in harmony, respect, and love for one and another and leave all the hatred behind. This country is our home, where we have our loved ones, our lives, and our future, please don't bring hate to it. We have suffered enough as a race, as a nation, as people. It is time to heal ourselves through each other by simply respect and appreciate one and another choice, which doesn't affect you in any way. like it or not I am your brother, born and raised on the same soil as you, please don't ake my differences treating you. The beauty of this world is our differences and that is what makes this world beautiful. Thinking about it if everyone in the world likes blue, the world would not be as colorful as it is now. a rainbow will not be as pleasant and appealing as it can be. From generation to Generation music always been an escape, a wave of freedom, a mountain of courage, an ocean of love. Let's embrace this gift of life to love one and another cares for one another, support one and another and most of all respect one and another. I want you to know that I love your comments, your critics, your support, your insults. I wish and hope that you are a better positive human being that yesterday. Peace is priceless, love is magic, honor is the key of fortune, try it and you will experience amazing thing, your breakfast will never taste so good, the sun will be brighter and the air that you breath will be much lighter, please try. Make music the beginning of something aspiring, something good and something more beautiful than life itself, please take good care of yourself.
Miss Poole's art class in Middle School, learning to do stained glass. Memories.
Sooo much better than the music they play these days. This is a song that actually has a meaning to it unlike most of the "music" they play now.
Good old memories.

90s were the shit !
Moonwolf 1970 yes,they were.so many good times.
I miss the 90s
Right after the glorious eighties......90's and then it was all over...
Very true and everything thereafter was shit.
Amo ... Bombou com força nas rádios rock daqui
i saw these guys in concert a few months back, and they put on a very good show
Good song writing and just well constructed all the way around.
