im a 41 yr oldman an been rockin fer a long time an this song is one of the most tear jerkin songs ive ever heard, myles please keep doing what your doing . i feel every emotion you put into your music , and your soo much better then scott anyday, keep rockin buddy...cheers!!!
my ex fiance is a musician and covered this song... now that we are apart, especially it happening right as fall turned to winter, it kills me. it's like i have a whole new understanding of it now. Myles is an absolute genius and beyond talented song writer. ♡alter bridge
When i was depressed i listened to this and it just made me cry so fucking much, it just made me think about leaving everyone i love and that is probably the only song that ever even stirrs me in that way. Thanks for posting.
Knowing most in the blogs don't or won't agree, and not wishing to start any kind argument of such, just want acknowledge that I receive spiritual motivation from most of alter bridges work whether or not it is their intent, God Bless this group and keep them playing together for a least the near future.I hope their music pulls on the heartstrings of the many as it has mine.God's grace ,God's Will, God's Glory. a Old Man
This song makes me think of my aunt who recently passed away at the age of 45 to cancer. She was married with 2 children ages 13 and 16. ' who is gonna save you when im gone and who'll watch over you and who will give you strength when your not strong who'll watch overr you when im gone away '
I've been dealing with eating disorders and self harm for the past 6 years. And i feel if i dont start loving myself the way i should, nobody is gonna watch over me anymore. This song to others may speak of death of a family member. But to me, the words go right to my scars:)
i love this song, its the first time i've heard it, i found it completely by accident. it reminds me of a guy i was seeing, he was a lie and a cheat, but he needed looking after. this is a beautiful song, x
Someone send this to me.. i was scared of lossing him but he said he is gonna protect me forever i really really love him very much cant live without him.. He was the person who talked suicide out of my head and i am glad he did
thank you Rolly for singing me this song before i sleep...i will always treasure the moments that we are together...i'm glad to know you...thanks for saying you will save me and watch over me...so, please take care of yourself so you won't get sick again...good luck to you and god bless you always...
this song means so much to me that i have it tattooed on my back, with 3 stars for my partner and 2 children, just to let them know that no matter what, i will always be watching over them, even when i am gone :( x
Before I was born, my mother was pregnant with a girl who was supposed to be my older sister. Her brain didnt develop right, so she died a few months into the pregnancy. I just found all of this out today. Hannah, even though I never knew you, I love you with all my heart. I hope God is watching over you in Heaven. R.I.P. sis, I'm sorry you had to die
This is one of my dads favorite songs. But slowly brain cancer has been ripping at him for the past 10 years. Hes a fighter, and im 14. I know why he likes this song. Two apple sized tumors removes from his a week ago. Live Long Dad. I Love You.
heard this on the radio many times and love it, but made the mistake of thinking it wa by Alex Band and The Calling. thank you for setting me straight.
I left my bF because he was suicidal and a cutter, But he was not willing to help himself overcome his problems. I was Like a care taker, not his lover. And this song.. It describes pretty much how I feel right now. I feel free, of these chains, no matter how much he will miss me, I'm Long gone.
This is absolutely my favorite song, no doubt. My favorite bands are like WHITECHAPEL, Suicide Silence, Unearth, and All That Remains, but their works couldn't hit me NEARLY as hard as Mark Tremonti & Myles' stuff... It's so damn beautiful, I can't even comprehend. I sang this at a funeral a while back, and I haven't done anything but grown to like it more. I guess what I'm saying is we really don't know what we have until it's gone & we can't take anything for granted...
I have listened to this song for a couple years on my ipod. I finally know where the writer is coming from because thats exactly where i am and who my ex is. So I dedicate Watch Over You by Alter Bridge to my Ex-girlfriend. I hope she finds happiness and someone who whill love her as much as I did.
this song makes me think of my brother who passed away a few years ago and every time i am thinking about him and this song comes on it makes me feel alot better than i started ou t feeling
That is exactly how I felt when I heard this song. I wanted to listen to it again and then I have to see the remarks from this guy that is hasseling me. I just want to hear music. Did you know this is Creed without the lead singer? I just found that out. I loved Scott (Can't remember last name) but this guy is just as good! I love the video but I wanted to know the words to it. Thanks Ydoucare for posting them.
I'm not for mushyness and sentimental songs etc but the last few words of this song send a chill through me!! amazing song!! a sad, sad song sung so well that its not until the last few lines that u realize how u feel!! wow!!
this song has always been my favorite since i first heard it.. and this goes out to a very special girl whom I've always loved.. Hope i can tell her the desire of my heart.. I love you Kathy.. i wish I had the strength to tell you that..
I use to hate romantics songs.. but alterbridge is the only group that actually makes me love romantics songs like this.. Ive dedicated this song and In Loving Memory to my exgirlfriend.. we last 4 years together and then.. 2 years ago she left me for another man.. we are still friends and Im long gone.. but this song well.. I am human after all..
This song makes me think of my last girlfriend alot and this is exactly the song that shows how I feel about it when she broke up with me because I was always there to keep her strong in the bad times and I wish she only realized how much she ment to me and how special she is heh almost made me cry
Leaves are on the ground Fall has come Blue skies turning grey Like my love I tried to carry you And make you whole But it was never enough I must go And who is gonna save you When I'm gone? And who'll watch over you When I'm gone? You say you care for me But hide it well How can you love someone And not yourself? And who is gonna save you When I'm gone? And who'll watch over you When I'm gone? And when I'm gone Who will break your fall? Who will you blame? I can't go on And let you lose it all It's more than I can take Who'll ease your pain? Ease your pain Who is gonna save you when I'm gone? And who'll watch over you? And who will give you strength when you're not strong Who'll watch over you when I've gone away? Snow is on the ground Winter's come You long to hear my voice But I'm long gone
this goes to my best friends who i always tell to do right and follow jesus.. but they dont seem to listen and they follow the devils temptation.... i will always love them but idk if i can keep trying to help them when they wont listen... it brings me down to much trying to help them and everything i try never seems to work out... i love this song..
i agree. someone who is still a child mentaly. "who is going to save you when im gone?" and "snow is on the ground. winter's come. you long to hear my voice but im long gone"
Is there any song from Alter Bridge that doesn't have lyrics that are deep and meaningful?seems like every song they wrote has a message and story behind it..amazing
I think he is referring to the opinion held by some that this song is about a person who is dying worrying about how their loved ones will go on without them to protect them.
That is exactly what the song is about. Myles wrote the song about addiction and being unable to help someone who won't help themselves. The song isn't about death, and if people actually read the lyrics, they'd realize they don't even make sense with any of the death stories they're posting.
Yeah maybe to mainstream people and radio but the word is out on this guy. Have you heard the rumors considering him filling Plant's role on the Zep tour? Even if it's publicity it's still an honor to be mentioned. I hope AB stays together and enjoy all the success of Creed.
Especially when in this song, there are lines that would never make sense in a "dying loved one" situation. (You say you care for me, but hide it well. How can you love someone and not yourself?) I think this song is obviously about the internal struggle the speaker goes through as his desire to leave a mentally unstable partner battles his guilt about wanting to leave. the speaker feels a sense of responsibility to this person, but also wishes to leave them.
My ex wife is in rehab for the third time as I watch this. Two sons under the age of 10 I take care of because of her addiction. Now what? We carry on, hearts heavy, but time to say goodbye.
i realize tht this song isnt about death but my boyfriend who is a firefighter sang this song to me the other day and i completely lost it. my biggest fear is losing him in a fire. i agree the lyrics dnt make since for a death song but when i first listened to the chorus, i heard a man telling his love his life may end soon and asking who is going to love her like he did.
i know my fiance will always be watching over me, he died 4 years ago but the pain is still as strong now as it was the day he died love you forever baby
![3 Doors Down - Here Without You [Lyrics]](/img/n.gif)
My dad watched over me all my life and I thank him for it all
im a 41 yr oldman an been rockin fer a long time an this song is one of the most tear jerkin songs ive ever heard, myles please keep doing what your doing . i feel every emotion you put into your music , and your soo much better then scott anyday, keep rockin buddy...cheers!!!
these guys perform with emotion and are talented i am surprised they are not well known they deserve reconigtion for their talents
my ex fiance is a musician and covered this song... now that we are apart, especially it happening right as fall turned to winter, it kills me. it's like i have a whole new understanding of it now. Myles is an absolute genius and beyond talented song writer. ♡alter bridge
I was sent this, by a friend from America. It makes me smile everytime I hear it.
When i was depressed i listened to this and it just made me cry so fucking much, it just made me think about leaving everyone i love and that is probably the only song that ever even stirrs me in that way.
Thanks for posting.

To those out there still struggling and suffering..I love you..💚
I really don't care about lyrics in songs, and mainly listen to instrumental music, but this song...this song, these words...magnificent!!
So touchin' lyrics, lovely!
Someone send this to me.. i was scared of lossing him but he said he is gonna protect me forever i really really love him very much cant live without him.. He was the person who talked suicide out of my head and i am glad he did
this song helped me alot just after my mum died! i would like 2 thanks alter bridge 4 this song! x
this song reminds me of my cousin John who was a proud U.S. Marine for five years of his life. I sang this at his funeral. miss you Rabbit...
thank you Rolly for singing me this song before i sleep...i will always treasure the moments that we are together...i'm glad to know you...thanks for saying you will save me and watch over me...so, please take care of yourself so you won't get sick again...good luck to you and god bless you always...
Another incredible song by this artist, such kick ass talent just had to share with Michael. Luv Songbird

This song always give me the chills, when the song started memories are coming back to my mind. Guys, live life to the fullest.
This is one of my dads favorite songs. But slowly brain cancer has been ripping at him for the past 10 years. Hes a fighter, and im 14. I know why he likes this song. Two apple sized tumors removes from his a week ago. Live Long Dad. I Love You.
I literally forgot about this song,, thanks to my brother for showing me this today. This song is nostalgic
when these guys perform the perform with emotion and their songs are just out of these world seriously the talent
heard this on the radio many times and love it, but made the mistake of thinking it wa by Alex Band and The Calling. thank you for setting me straight.
This just became my new favorite song and band! This song made me cry :(
sometimes we have to go from our true love and watched her happy with someone else
almost !!
Kevin Samuel boys are so stupid
❤️ I know, man. I know.
Amen
Wow this song is amazing! I looove it. I was channel surfing and saw it on vh1. Thank you ydoucare for posting the song and the words.

a song can mean whatever you want it to mean. it reminds me of my son. every1 will have there own insight and that is what a songwriter wants

Yep, Myles is an incredibly underrated singer. Among the best, both studio and live. :)

This song is truly beautiful, but from 3:03 - 3:43 it absolutely kills!!! It's because of someone special that I know this song :)
How can anyone dislike this. Its a brilliant song :/
Myles' father died when he was 4 years old. Perhaps he wrote this song from his father's perspective? Either way, I love this song.
I am like lost! my life never gets better crying right now its private i love u all my family ur all so so strong and special
You long to hear my voice...

so good, i'm so brought with his lyrics
i love alterbridge they is just really cool i love this song
Leaves are on the ground
Fall has come
Blue skies turning grey
Like my love
I tried to carry you
And make you whole
But it was never enough
I must go
And who is gonna save you
When I'm gone?
And who'll watch over you
When I'm gone?
You say you care for me
But hide it well
How can you love someone
And not yourself?
And who is gonna save you
When I'm gone?
And who'll watch over you
When I'm gone?
And when I'm gone
Who will break your fall?
Who will you blame?
I can't go on
And let you lose it all
It's more than I can take
Who'll ease your pain?
Ease your pain
Who is gonna save you when I'm gone?
And who'll watch over you?
And who will give you strength when you're not strong
Who'll watch over you when I've gone away?
Snow is on the ground
Winter's come
You long to hear my voice
But I'm long gone
this goes to my best friends who i always tell to do right and follow jesus.. but they dont seem to listen and they follow the devils temptation.... i will always love them but idk if i can keep trying to help them when they wont listen... it brings me down to much trying to help them and everything i try never seems to work out... i love this song..
amazing song - i think im gonna learn it on guitar :)
i agree. someone who is still a child mentaly. "who is going to save you when im gone?" and "snow is on the ground. winter's come. you long to hear my voice but im long gone"
It's like a brother love form sister
Like it keep doing this
Awesome music!
i love this song so much
Is there any song from Alter Bridge that doesn't have lyrics that are deep and meaningful?seems like every song they wrote has a message and story behind it..amazing
awesome! AB rocks! inspiring!
thx to my cousin who introduced me to this band
This song is for everyone who tried to love someone who just couldn't accept it. for one reason or another.
love this song so beaitiful and moving
I think he is referring to the opinion held by some that this song is about a person who is dying worrying about how their loved ones will go on without them to protect them.
Awww i love this song it reminds me of my grandad he is not dead just has umm cancer xxx
these memories
Sometimes we have to be the one who watch over our love ones from the shadow, but can't be the one to be loved
You can almost see it when he says "snow is on the ground , winter has come"
Yeah it Rocks Dude!
idol tlaga alterbridge!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You say you care for me but hide it well
How can you love someone and not yourself?
This hurts like nothing else in this world 😭
Questa canzone mi fa venire da piangere :'( ma è bellissima *-*
On here? I am so confused! Whatever. This is a great song! I saved it. I love the words. It makes me think of my son.
That is exactly what the song is about. Myles wrote the song about addiction and being unable to help someone who won't help themselves. The song isn't about death, and if people actually read the lyrics, they'd realize they don't even make sense with any of the death stories they're posting.
que bella canción la busque durante tantos años
my silent tear falls but yet i still feel the pain and no one knows
Yeah maybe to mainstream people and radio but the word is out on this guy. Have you heard the rumors considering him filling Plant's role on the Zep tour? Even if it's publicity it's still an honor to be mentioned. I hope AB stays together and enjoy all the success of Creed.
Yeah their very good!
Best song ever .. i have some problems with my gf and listening to this song it makes me cry =l
Perfect.

reminds me at my friend who was murdered,he was my best friend,he was like a brother for me,he didn't deserve to die.
@sooperscooter34 Yes, they've recorded a new album that's supposed to be out sometime late this year.
