My mom finally made her passing in June after a long journey with Lewy Body Dementia. I played this song during the 12 days at her bedside while she was fading away from this dimension as I held up my promise to help her end her life. Thank you Tracy Chapman for your gift.
Oh, that must have been so hard. I can't imagine. My condolences to you on the loss of your Mom. I'm so glad for both your sakes you could be there for her. What a beautiful way to spend your last days together, listening to this.
This was always one of my favorite songs of all time, but it has taken on new meaning and purpose in my life with the passing of my partner of 20 years this past March after a brief but brutal battle with lymphoma. For anyone who has lost someone special in their lives, the promise--and hope--of seeing them once again in another place and time when it's our turn to transition can get you through some very dark and lonely times. This song cuts to the very core of that longing. It's transcendent.
My husband is struggling to die from the damage done by multiple myloma. I wish him good traveling weather for his crossing. I weep to think I may not be with him again.
On February 9th 1990 watching Tracy sing this in concert live in Australia I bawled my eyes out to this song. It had always been a favourite of mine and my husband’s. That night was the first time I had done anything social since he had passed away suddenly and unexpectedly at age 28. My friend took me to the concert and it was amazing because I’m a huge Tracy Chapman fan but boy oh boy this beautiful song took on new meaning for me that night and to this day it still makes me cry. Thank you Tracy for your beautiful words that allow us to let go of our emotions now and then, you helped me navigate grief as a young widow with the raw and real song.
Exactly on march 15th,my wife for 25 years died of liver failure,but I find solace in this song,and it will always hold a special meaning in my heart,soul and life.thanks Tracy. Rip namuddu renne Jarvis.
After my partner passed in 2009, I found a CD in his car with this song on it. I listened. I wept. He remembered. I knew he was still with me…and the some day I would find my way back to him. ☮️💕🙏
A friend shared/sang this at the funeral of his wife who died way too soon. So beautiful, such a tribute. Thank you Tracy for giving my friend and all of us a few words to help us sing our friend home.

I have to thank you Tracy , I played this song at my daughter's funeral service. I cant think of a song to honor her more now 11 years later. Simply the most beautiful song of love and longing I've ever heard! I miss her!!
This is such a beautiful song, it’s making me cry, and I don’t even know who I’m crying for, lol... love, and the beauty of love, I suppose... whew that just really stirred up the ole emotions there!
Tracy Chapman is the living embodiment of heart and soul. Have been a fan since I was a little kid from the first time I heard Fast Car. Now I'm 33 and still find myself coming back to her music.
She is so amazingly beautiful. My eyes fill with tears and my skin bumps up when I hear this song. It has a personal meaning to me. And the promises have come true for me. thank you God.
This song is special I sometimes listen to and know my wife hears it too I she past January 31st 2023 just went bed said goodnight then was gone this song has helped.
Fulfilling my promise to my beautiful mom to end her suffering from nearly a decade of dementia…and she and I listened to this song during the magical year together during pandemic … Tracy….you are so beautiful. Thank you.
Harllynne this was my wedding song..with my husband who was a soldier at the time...it makes me cry too and as a military long you have that longing and lonesomeness sometimes maybe that's why this song resonated with me so much 😊
I miss my mom and dad so much sometimes, as I hear this song, I picture hugs they have shared over the years in their lives with me, and I just lose it and become a mess. They were my best friends. i thankfully have my brothers, but I miss them and it hurts through the soul sometimes. Lost dad in 2020, and mom in 2021. I know they are together.
You are such a wonderful musical talent and I will always remember your music. I saw you live in a room of about 50 people and it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. Thankyou Tracy Chapman.
it's like my husband is talking to me from heaven telling me his misses me as much as i miss him and that he promises to come for me and we'll be together again if i promise to wait for him I CRY EVERY TIME i HEAR THIS SONG
The One and only 'Tracy Chapman' and one only voice, which has power to penetrate your soul.....Her music is for your heart and soul.....How she does that, every time I hear her songs, they took me some mysterious emotional ride.Which one can only experience, no other way to describe such feeling in words...
My beloved mother Julieann passed of GBM brain cancer in 2009....We created her funeral video with this song in background of her lovingly raising us on Long Island in much simpler times....I refused to listen to this song ever since her funeral....12 years later (July 2021)...."I find my way back" to this heart-wrenching soul-filling song after a break up....It brings me straight back *home* to my her😪....NEVER to forget..."A place for me in your heart"....🙏💖🌻💖🙏
This is 2020, it's just over a year my madam passed . I think of you Rosie, I know that you are in a better place. . I miss you. See you on the other side someday. This song always touch my heart.
Thank you so much for posting this incredible song.... brings tears to my eyes.. :) Tracy's delivery is amazing, effortless, and heart felt,,,,, WoW!!!!!!
So thank you so very much for posting a live version of this song. I like being able to connect with Tracy as she delivers these beautiful, amazing words. Truly, one of the greatest love songs of all time. I will want this to be played at my Celebration of Life ceremony in remembrance and in honor of my 20-year relationship with my partner which ended this past March when he passed away from lymphoma. Peace and love to each of you out there longing for and missing someone special.

I love true authentic singer song writers like Tracy Chapman and Jewel. They both perform best live. Where their heart and soul shines through in all they do.
This song doesn’t get the recognition it deserves. It is one of the most romantic songs ever written. My favorite song . Love you Tracy .
This song didnt get the recognition it truly deserves so sad
A girl and her guitar. 100% simple. 100% pure talent. This, my friends, is what real music looks like.
Sounds like!
@@gerardmilesmckinnell both! 🤷🏼♀️😂
Well said.

Can't believe (I sure can, who am I kidding) I'm playing this as lullaby for my newborn daughter in 2021. Have loved this song for over a decade.
After my partner passed in 2009, I found a CD in his car with this song on it. I listened. I wept. He remembered. I knew he was still with me…and the some day I would find my way back to him. ☮️💕🙏
*I remembered*
This is almost too beautiful to listen to. It hurts my heart .

Every single time, I cry EVERY SINGLE TIME I listen to this song, my god

I am not attracted to her as a woman, but her voice sure has cast a spell on my heart. A beautiful human being if ever there has been one.
First time I heard this song was May 8 1997 she was the musical guest on NY Undercover at the end of the show. Beautiful song!!
My favourite Tracy song
Folk music is so powerful and speaks to every human soul hence why it's blacklisted and banned. You will never see her on Mtv anymore.
Same here my friend, it hurts and brings me so many tears
Rien a dire tout simplement formiiiiiiidable thanks thank thank thank thank thank Tracy Chapman 👏👏👏👏👏👏 🎸 j'adooooooooooooooore braaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaavo 😘
