Lyrics:
I know it’s a bad idea
But how can I help myself
Been inside for most this year
And I thought a few drinks they might help
It’s been a while my dear
Dealing with the cards life dealt
I’m still holding back these tears
While my friends are somewhere else
I pictured this year a little bit different when it hit February
I step in the bar, it hit me so hard
Oh how can it be this heavy?
Every song reminds me you’re gone
And I feel the lump form in my throat
‘Coz I’m here alone
Just dancing with my eyes closed
‘Coz everywhere I look I still see you
Time is moving so slow
And I don’t know what else that I can do
So I’ll keep dancing with my eyes closed
So I’ll keep dancing with my
Delusion is here again
And I think you’ll come home soon
A word brings me right back in
Then it’s only me that’s in this room
I guess I could just pretend
The colours are more than blue
But I lost more than my friend
I can’t help but missing you
I pictured this month a little bit different no one is ever ready
And when it unfolds you get in a hole
Oh how can it be this heavy?
Everything changes, nothing’s the same
Except the truth is now you’re gone
And life just goes on
So I’m dancing with my eyes closed
‘Coz everywhere I look I still see you
Time is moving so slow
And I don’t know what else that I can do
So I’ll keep dancing with my eyes closed
So I’ll keep dancing with my eyes closed
Oh I’ll keep dancing with my
They’re shutting the bar
They’re cleaning the floor
And everyone is already home
But I’m on my own
Still dancing with my eyes closed
‘Coz everywhere I look I still see you
Time is moving so slow
And I don’t know what else that I can do
So I’ll keep dancing with my eyes closed
Oh I’ll keep dancing with my eyes closed
Oh I’ll keep dancing with my

I’m sorry. I lost a baby in 1989 and it still hurts. My newest grandson is named Rowen❤️ I’m so sorry for your pain 😭
❤❤❤
Mine was born on 2-2-24 … I was wondering if this song reminded anyone else then I saw this …. Wow
You gave my wife and I our song Perfect. She passed in February, and you now gave me Eyes Closed
Sorry about that 🕊️bro
R.I.P
Oh my RIP😢😢
May she rest in peace 🌹
My condolences....
I don’t care what people say but, Ed Sheeran truly is the best singer/songwriter. He has never made a bad album. There’s no other artist like him. Edit: thanks for all the likes and comments!
He is ‘Perfect’.
Agreed, one of the best in our generation.
Definitely one of the best of his generation
Defs him and Taylor Swift are my fav songwriters 💗
@@nikicruz90period!
Who’s here from BottleRock? :) Ed Sheeran absolutely killed it! So good!! I could watch it all again from beginning to end. 👍🏻🎵🎸
Ed couldn't explain better what it's like to carry grief day and night, thank you Ed, I love you.
❤
100%
Thats the grief you carry around all the time@rebeccajohnson3402
Hits hard. Exact words I'm going through right now💔Time is moving so slow..
I lost my husband to cancer in January and this song just reached down into my grief like a hand. He passed away two days shy of what would have been our 30th wedding anniversary and some days I feel like I am doing exactly what you sing about. I still see him, feel him, everywhere. Our daughter has always been a big fan of yours, and she introduced me to your music. What you write and sing about touches people deeply. You are such an intuitive singer/songwriter and your songs are full of raw emotion, and evoke the same. My daughter and son-in-law even used your song Perfect for their wedding song, as it really does describe the love they have together (they have been a couple since they were 15, married 5 years yesterday, and now have a beautiful little girl, 2 years old). As much as this song made me cry, I know I need to let it out, and it's so beautiful, even as it is heartwrenching. It is the mark of true talent to be able to evoke so many different emotions in your fans. Thank you for sharing your gift with us all.❤
Sorry to hear i hope you are doing well , and get over it.
@@SigmaChad010 well you don't ever get over it, but I try each day to move forward and live my life in a way that he would continue to be proud of. We were together 32 years and he was my soulmate. I am sure you meant well, but you don't just "get over" that! 😳
Thank you for sharing with us... A big hug 😊
I'm sorry for your loss. I feel it. I lost my
Souls partner in October and my almost ex in March after almost nine months of hospitals and rehabs after a nasty swan dive down the cellar stairs... in the end... all there is is love and we are left dancing with our eyes closed. Be gentle with yourself...
Thank you ma'am
I lost my Mom because of COVID 19 last 2021 and up until now I am still grieving. Last March 17 is her Birthday. This song sums up how I feel. Thank you for this wonderful song Ed.
❤❤
❤❤❤mine is March 12th and my mom's was 14th Feb. I lost her 3 months after her 44th birthday last year
Rest in Peace Dad. Gone but not forgotten, 2006. 😢 🕊️🪽
I’m sad to here that but you know you have to get going it’s ok to think about it but don’t let it ruin the rest of your life
Love ❤❤❤❤❤
Did you die?
*I love this song, Ed! It is sad and hurts like a dagger, but it's always the memories that count*
TEACHERS APPRECIATION FROM ME AND MINE 💖💯🪄
I love it I LITERALLY LOVED IT FOR A WHILE❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊
Mais les souvenirs sont tellement douloureux....
It's the memories that hurt the most especially when you know you can never get that time back 😭
Ed Sheeran, you have the voice, and soul of an angel on earth. Your mum must be SO proud. 🙂 Bless you and yours Ed.xxxxxc
This has got to be one of the most personal songs Ed has ever made you did a great job keep it up
I got personal with ur mum
Dive is good
This song has got to be of the most popularl songs ed has ever made you did a great job keep it
Up
❤️🩹
😂🎉1
This song is for those who are grieving forever for a lost of their loved ones... because we have no choice, but just to keep going. No matter how hard and painful it is. We continue to live life with our eyes closed.
Pretty good interpretation of the song's meaning. 👍
😢
I was thinking about ending mine 😢💔
Well spoken. Another recommendation for those who are grieving is ed sheeran's visiting hours
So very true. Grief never goes away, we just learn to cope with it, well we try. I’ve lost so many people close to me…this song put all my feelings into words
I lost my father almost three years ago. This song fits perfectly how I felt and still feel. I'm sorry for your loss, Ed. I hope someday it gets easier for both of us.
That's good music. Too much.
i lost my mom and dad and yeah
@@user-kk8gp7cm5u sorry to hear that rip to them I lost my grandad when I was 5 and think it’s my fualt
Maminka nám mmam
Er
Timeless. A great example of how great of a singer Ed Sheeren is.
The scene where we see everyone else being followed by grief just hits hard. Its the reminder that we all have to go through this eventually, but it is also reminding us that we are not alone with our pain.
El tiempo se mueve tan lento y no se que más puedo hacer,
Eso siento desde que perdi a mi hermano menor.😢 hermosa canción que refleja a la perfección a quienes perdemos un ser querido
understood this part in the same way. was a powerful scene in the video for sure.
yessss
😊😊😊❤
I'm dancing with my eyes closed but GOD is always with me .
My fiancé passed away February 2021 and my best friend passed away December 2022. This song describes the the life I live now. The monster that followed him around was the perfect representation of grief to me. It never goes away, it walks with you forever now. I’ve learned to embrace and move forward with it. You never “move on”, you move forward with them in everything you do ❤️❤️❤️
I lost my dad last week in a house fire … 😢
You're right, you never forget, but take them with you, and you move forward.
Yes very nice.
Wow, that's a very powerful conclusion!
Thanks for your sincere love and support for my music 🎶, you must be a special fan of mine and I hope you keep enjoying every bit of it
I lost my dad almost 5 years ago and this song is so perfect for how i feel. The grief is still there and will always be but i live every day hoping i am making him happy.
Sry
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ed Sheeran means the world to me. He’s helped me get through all the tough times in my life. Wether it’s death or sickness ed Sheeran is there. He’s out there changing lives because he defiantly changed mine.
I only listen to Ed Sheeran. I haven't heard any music written in my mother tongue for so long.
Bro u get ed but atleast get some life on your own. We both love ed but still love your country songs and it's special on its own way :) Not unless you are korean
Yah, same here i listen to him more than ever.
@@joshuacanono3998 I still don't get bored listening to it over and over again
Ed Sheeran will always be one of the most talented song writers and artists in my books!
Also can't wait to cry and just vibe with all the feelings of the new album
When he makes down to earth, soul-inducing songs, this is true. But in recent years he's made music mainly to please the larger audience which means his music is very much like everything else being produced. But I'm hoping subtract will bring him back to his early days of song writing, which to me, was the peak of his lyricism.
@@Scareth agreed
I covered eyes closed and would love if you checked it out :) thank you!
Absolutely agree. I think we have two of the greatest artists living right now on earth. Ed Sheeran, and Taylor Swift. Both incredibly gifted songwriters with unmatched versatility. Soooo good.
some people say good music was only made years ago and I love the old music of the 70s/80s/90s but Ed just proves that good music is still being made today.
Was looking for this comment haha
I just want to say thank you for this song. I'm suffering from compound grief. My sister died (quickly) from cancer in September, and it hit me hard. We were really close. Then my mom died in November, just before Thanksgiving, after having a hip replacement. I was with her when she passed. I had to take care of her final wishes and service. Then my father passed in his home in January, just before my birthday. I found him. I had to do everything from getting him cremated, planning his service, cleaning out his estate, etc. In that 5 month period of time, I also lost two friends (one was in his early 30's) and my aunt. I'm so depressed. I heard this song and immediately connected to it. It's absolutely perfect. So thank you for sharing this. It was even released at the perfect time. As a matter of fact, I even told my mental health counselor about the song. It's absolutely beautiful.
May God bless ur heart and grant u peace. RIP to ur people, sending love right 2 u
Thank you so much.
I'm sorry for all your losses so soon. I dealt with it when I was 16 my dad in April and my grandpa in May. I know how bad the grief is. May you find peace. I know it's a heavy feeling. I'm sorry you have to go through it. Find the strength where ever you can!
I’m so so sorry. Your nervous system must be in bits. I’m sending you so much healing energy and I hope you are able to find peace in these difficult days. X
OMG I’m so sorry I’m crying, RIP your mom, sister and dad god bless you
I lost my dad over 2 years ago, out of the blue, impossible to say goodbye as I live in a different country and we were in lockdown, when Ed released Visiting Hours I cried for hours, it was about everything I wished I could do, now, he just put into words everything I have felt, even characterizing what that sadness following you everywhere is.
Yes. Same
This man can make you miss someone who's right next to you
I'd never thought I'd ever have to relate to this song! Just lost my best friend 😭.I'm so sorry for your loss Ed! I never wish this on anyone!❤
I'm sorry for your loss bro... R.I.P legend
❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹hugs
I lost my Dad just over a year and a half ago, not long before Visiting Hours came out. As sad as it makes me every time I hear it, there's some sort of comfort knowing other people have been though it too - especially someone I look up to. This song is the same. It's beautiful and it addresses the constant 'lump in your throat' feelings that grief brings. I hope you're doing ok now, even though grief never goes away ❤
So sorry for your loss. I lost my Dad Sunday xxx
My own Dad died around the release of visiting hours too. 11th July the night of the final against Italy. I'm sorry for your loss. ❤
@@tanyajaynecollier8878 Huni I'm so sorry for your loss. I hope you're doing ok. I know the pain. I'm so sorry Tanya ❤
My Dad died on 16th July 2021 💔
So sorry for your loss ❤
TRUE FACT: Everyone agrees that Ed Sheeran is not Just a singer, songwriter his voice is out of the world.
❤️🩹
Imagine Dragons released a song with the same title
Grief is as much a universal language as love is.
" I pictured this year a little bit different when it hit february " I lost my dad in January and this is literally me ever since that day. Thank you for another masterpiece Ed
I'm so so ❤️
So sorry
Sorry to hear that be strong 💪
Heartfelt condolences. Lx
I lost my dad Dec 30.. My condolences to you
I lost my stepdad on the release date of this song (24 March 2023). I'm bawling my eyes out because it's hard to describe how grief feels like but this song captured it. 😭 Thank you Ed for being the amazing musician that you are ❤
I'm really sorry for your loss 💔take care🥀

TRUE FACT: We can all agree that Ed Sheeran never lets us down, his talent is raw and his voice is out of this world!!!
I covered eyes closed and would love if you checked it out :) thank you!
Yeah but he needs a new hairstyle
@@Kirossss lol i understand but i know a lot of people love him no matter what❤
Peado sure likes Adrenochrome
Never ever let’s us down .. even in the midst of his own grief ❤
Ed Sheeran doesn't just sing
He tells stories
💯
Yes, what makes his love songs one of the most touching in the world to me!
Lost my husband of 20 years… been 2 years… living with my eyes closed… and trying to peak every now and again.. this song nails deep grief.
This song is a masterpiece of storytelling and cinematic. Ed Sheeran perfectly delivers a powerful and emotional performance that captures the essence of the lyrics.
Sorry NOORALY-mk2xn
This song is another amazing one. I sat and thought about the video for a bit, and my interpretation. I think the fluffy character is a representation of Jamal and that everywhere Ed goes, Jamal is there, but not real. He thinks he sees him in everything he looks at. If you notice, at the very end, Ed says "I'm dancing with my" and then the character is gone. Like Jamal. A representation of the fact that Jamal is actually truly gone. A feeling of being alone and the emptiness that comes with it. I'm so sorry for Ed's loss. How devastating. I've not lost a best friend yet, but I've lost many family members. Grief is horrendous. Another amazing song Ed. See you in August.
Jamal's favourite colour was blue
Oh! I interpreted it as depression/grief
ua-cam.com/video/AKab-kL4iGA/v-deo.html
I interpreted it as grief/depression. Him keeping his eyes closed was his way of not wanting to deal with his grief and so it gets bigger and bigger until it consumes him, leading him to dive off into the water. Only when he opened his eyes and faced it was he able to deal with it. And this brings him back around, away from the edge.
@Nelson Douglas Sure am!
Hi Ed. I know you dont know me but I went to your perth concert a few weeks ago and I just want you to know how much of an impact you have had on my life. Your music is some of the best I have ever heard and you have inspired me to start writing songs and performing even though I'm only 14. I hope to someday be a famous artist just like you. Cant wait for your new album and show on disney! LEGEND!
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Keep on believin!
Can't wait! 🖤
can't wait to see you topping the charts
you lost again and again the lights are cut off but you still looking at your dream saying its not over sing with me just for today never tomorrow
In the dusty attic of his childhood home, Ed found an old boat covered in memories. With eyes closed, he recalled the colorblind sunsets over salt water, the laughter of youth that once sparkled like Vega, and the sound of sycamore leaves rustling in the wind. Life goes on, but sometimes we must pull back the curtains to revisit the borderline between past and present, finding that in the hills of Aberfeldy, there are no strings attached to the nostalgia that binds us.
Don’t even have a reason. He cheated, hit me & yet I’m still here 8 years after with my eyes closed.
When I first heard just a portion of this song, at the initial listen, I thought it was just a routine break-up song, but after taking a closer look at the lyrics and looking up the backstory behind this (and discovering that this is actually about coping with death and grieving), it just hits completely different now. Just beautiful.
Has he lost someone?! Ohh I hope not a baby. I just don’t get this song and this big soft toy.. ? and that beginning when he seems drowning.. really disturbing. Weirdly, a couple of days ago my LO invented that “game” in the pool.. 😑
How do you keep making songs better than the last
@@sylwiaratajczyk8534 no, a Friend. The Blue Animal Thing is greeve
Totally missed it...... wow.... even better now.
@@sylwiaratajczyk8534 He lost his best friend, Jamal. This song is for him.
Ed can express so much emotion with his voice. Makes me cry sometimes when I listed to him.
Me too
I'm already balling my eyes out here 😢
I went to a concert of his in 2015 and he’s still to this day the best artist I’ve ever seen live. His voice is so good that it actually sounds better live because a recording studio cannot do him justice. Like imagine being that good of a singer that your voice cannot be captured in its best form.
@@juanitaguerra5864 i've never seen him live. i must try to get to one of his concerts.
@@carlsevertofficial it's a very emotional song alright.
Your lyrics have never been so relatable even tho they all have been precisely relatable.
Thank you for this song ed, healing is a difficult process.
I feel in love with this song first time I heard it on the radio. My son died 2 years ago and this just remind me of him.. I was dancing, singing, smiling and crying at the same time thinking of my little boy with my eyes closed. Thank you for this perfect song❤️
😢 sorry for your loss💔
I m sorry
So sorry for your loss❤❤ big hug from here.
I love this song without realizing that it relates to my lost. We have lost our son summer last year. The pain will stay, we try to remember beautiful days and almost 3 years with him. Ed Sheeran, thanks for your beautiful song❤
Trust in Jesus, Hell is real and eternal! This is what the Bible says about it..
"The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." Matthew 13: 41-42
Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven "I am the way, the truth, and the life no one comes to the father but by me." John 14:6 Ask God to reveal this to you- He will!
"For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23 ADMIT THAT YOU'RE A SINNER. We've all broken God's laws and ten commandments.. "Thou shalt not lie, steal, covet, dishonor parents, take God's name in vain.."(Exodus 20) We do not have righteousness on our own to get to heaven, "God made him (Jesus) who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God." 2 Cor. 5:21 Godly sorrow leads to genuine repentance for sinning against the righteous God and there is a change of heart, we change our mind and God changes our hearts and regenerates us from the inside out. God is deadly serious about sin, when we genuinely repent we hate sin just as God hates it, and we turn away from it.
"But God commended His love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us." Romans 5:8 BELIEVE IN YOUR HEART THAT JESUS CHRIST DIED FOR YOUR SINS, WAS BURIED, AND THAT GOD RAISED JESUS FROM THE DEAD. This is trusting with all of your heart that Jesus Christ is who he said he was. He saves us from sin and hell and brings us into a relationship with him. We become God's children. We are saved from hell, eternal death.
"For whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved." Romans 10:13 CALL UPON THE NAME OF THE LORD. Every single person who ever lived since Adam will bend their knee and confess with their mouth that Jesus Christ is Lord, the Lord of Lords and the King of Kings.
Read the Bible, Walk with the Lord and give your life to Him!

Dear Ed. This came out at the exact right time. My boyfriend's father just passed away yesterday. We are grieving so much. It will be very hard for us and his mom in the future but this video shows exactly how it feels. I wish I could hug you. I also lost my dear grandma in September 2020, your music helped me very much to overcome my grief but it never goes away. Your new album will be released one day after my birthday and I am looking forward to it. It will be special. Lots of love, Carina
I hope you get through the loss of your dear one. Life's crazy and unpredictable. Wish you all the strength in the world ❣️
So sorry for your loss ❤
I am also grieving lost loved ones. I am grateful for this song. Prayers to your family and to healing.
@@lorrainewallis9560 thank you
That thing looks like a giant fuzzy blue owl.
He loved his buddy Jamal so much
Oh ed. Losing someone is fckng hell. This just hits deep. I am proud of us for making it up to this day.
I lost more than a friend, I lost my mom 4yrs ago and it’s still fresh. Just like this song I am delusional thinking that she’s coming home soon too. I think the pain wont ever go away but somehow it’s a relief because I’ll forever remember that I had the best mom in the world. I love you Mama. Thanks Ed. This is wonderful. Worth the wait.
I'm so sorry for the loss of your mom. You never get over that grief, but with time it will become more manageable. Just remember she is never far from you. I strongly believe someday we will realize how close the spirit world is, and that our loved ones were always cheering us on. They are our biggest fans, always watching over us. God bless you.
This grief also translates to anxiety always feeling like there’s something there with you judging you always following you and having an overbearing weight that’s hard to escape.
It’s such a beautiful song and is relatable, portrays emotions and it’s not just some song that can make the most money for you it’s real.❤️
I was looking for this comment
❤
I started thinking about it, and now I’m trying to think of grief or anxiety as a big fluffy creature trying to help me get through life. So it is always watching and trying to help, but when we try to hide from it, it doesn’t work. Embrace it and try to live with it. It may never go away, but you can learn to cope. ❤
Yes😢
Ed Sheeran is way better than Taylor Swift
Exactlyyyyy!!!
I agree
No offence to Ed but Taylor is WAY better
Yes

My eyes will not be blind.
Lyrics:
[Verse 1]
I know it's a bad idea
But how can I help myself?
Been inside for most this year
And I thought a few drinks, they might help
It's been a while my dear
Dealing with the cards life dealt
I'm still holding back these tears
While my friends are somewhere else
[Pre-Chorus]
I pictured this year a little bit different when it hit February
I step in the bar, it hit me so hard
Oh how can it be this heavy?
Every song reminds me you're gone
And I feel thе lump form in my throat
'Cause I'm here alonе
[Chorus]
Just dancing with my eyes closed
'Cause everywhere I look I still see you
Time is moving so slow
And I don't know what else that I can do
So I'll keep dancing with my
[Post-Chorus]
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Eye-ye-eye-eyes closed
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
So I'll keep dancin' with my
[Verse 2]
Delusion is here again
And I think you'll come home soon
A word brings me right back in
Then it's only me that’s in this room
I guess I could just pretend
The colours are more than blue
But I lost more than my friend
I can't help but missing you
[Pre-Chorus]
I pictured this month a little bit different no one is ever ready
And when it unfolds you get in a hole
Oh how can it be this heavy?
Everything changes, nothing’s the same
Except the truth is now you’re gone
And life just goes on
[Chorus]
So I'm dancin' with my eyes closed
'Cause everywhere I look, I still see you
Time is movin' so slow
And I don't know what else that I can do
So I'll keep dancin' with my
[Post-Chorus]
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Eye-ye-eye-eyes closed
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Oh, I'll keep dancin' with my
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Eye-ye-eye-eyes closed
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Oh, I'll keep dancin' with my
[Bridge]
They're shutting the bar, they're cleaning the floors
And everyone is already home
But I'm on my own
[Chorus]
Still dancin' with my eyes closed
'Cause everywhere I look, I still see you
Time is movin' so slow
And I don't know what else that I can do
So I'll keep dancin' with my
[Post-Chorus]
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Eye-ye-eye-eyes closed
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Oh, I keep dancin' with my
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Eye-ye-eye-eyes closed
Eye-ye-eye-eyes
Oh, I keep dancin' with my

Wrong song lol.
@@Lxlly. no worries, I just pasted so that once I play the song I can scroll and sing :) the same is in description.
But on the phone comments are the ones which looks first so it's just for my convenience 😜
I am Japanese and a fan of yours.
When I walk down the street at night listening to your songs, I feel like I am flying. You are very popular in Japan and your collaboration with Pokemon made all Japanese proud. Thank you for the great music
You are my favourite singer
Hello there??
日本人の気持ちを代弁してくれてありがとう😁
i love how it goes from softly singing to singing his heart out. it hits so hard and i love it
You are by far one of the most talented and gifted artist I have ever had the honor to listen to. Your talents helped to bring me out of some very dark places I never thought I could recover from!! Thank you from the deepest parts of my heart and soul.❤
I lost my Sister 4 months ago. And I still feel heartbroken. Condolences to Ed & everyone in this comments. You’re not alone & God will give us strength! Let’s dance with our eyes closed till we finally meet them ❤
❤❤

I danced to this song with my actual eyes closed and it made me cry happily remembering all my friends and family that passed. Thank you for this amazing song you have no idea how this made my day.
EYES OPEN. ONE AND ALL.
made me talk about my loss so thank you
I just lost my husband suddenly 6 weeks ago and just recently heard this song on the radio and it brought tears to my eyes. And that's a big deal, because I haven't fully processed it yet. But the words describe it so well! Well done, Mr. Sheeran! Another winner!
I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my mom unexpected in October, and the shock is the only thing that has gotten me through 8 months. Grief is such a raw thing. I never knew a heart could ache physically like this! Every time I hear this song, I think of her. Usually, she is always what I'm thinking about, though. I hope you find strength and take one day at a time. People say not to question God, but it's impossible for me not to!? It makes me not want to care for anyone because of this pain. He is right there beside you!
So sorry for your loss!
Aww, I am sorry to hear about the loss of your partner. It's just so heartbreaking to here when an unexpected tragedy just sends a persons life into chaos and grief. That is amazing thing, when a song reminds you of the person you love. I send my prayers to you and your family.
im sorry i lost some thinks to
@@ItsMeAmb3rly I am so very sorry for your loss too! That's so horrible to have lost your mom! It's true Grief is such a raw thing, and this grief is not like any other grief I've felt before. It's not only sad, but confusing, because I keep forgetting and wanting to ask him a question, or want to tell him something that happened. I'm keeping busy with friends, so I don't have enough time to feel lonely. Thankfully I have them! I'm sad to hear that your heart is so wounded you feel like you could never care for anyone again. I believe God made our hearts to heal. Unfortunately, it takes time, and it can't be rushed. And the pain going away won't mean you love her any less. It just means you are healing and are ready to be happy again. Wouldn't your mom want that? For you to be happy? On another note, I am a bit confused about your statement about God. What questions would you want to ask God? And who is right beside me? My husband or God?
Ugh, Ed! Going on two years since my mom left me and your songs-Photograph, Supermarket Flowers, Visiting Hours… and now Eyes Closed. They’re powerful. They say the things I wish I could say. They touch my heart and they move me to tears.
Losing a mom is hard!
Supermarket flowers war so schön ❤❤
sooo good
Same.
Dad i miss you 1982-2018
Omg😢. My now late mum was 3 in 1982
At if you ever lost someone hope you get Better
To the person reading this, I hope everything goes well for you and I want you to know you are loved ♡♡
TRUE FACT: Everyone agrees that Ed Sheeran's voice is not a joke , his voice is out of the world.
Not true, he just stole the vocal styling of Passenger ua-cam.com/video/RBumgq5yVrA/v-deo.html
Tone is matters more than voice. Voice depends on which type of tone you choose by your voice type.
Sigo aquí como hace casi 10 años, te quiero mucho Ed 💛
El mejor comentario que he leído💛🥺❤️
somos dos ❤ como me encanta este man
Te amo Ed ❤
Aquí seguimos fieles a él ❤
Y seguiremos de largo💛

But thank you my man. From the bottom of my heart bro
"Eyes Closed" by Ed Sheeran is a somber reflection on the pain of losing someone you love and trying to move on. The song is about the difficulty of coping with the aftermath of a breakup and the emotions that come with it. The narrator of the song is dealing with the repercussions of a failed relationship and is still struggling to come to terms with it. The first verse sets the scene for the song by describing the narrator's isolation and loneliness. The narrator acknowledges that it is a bad idea to turn to alcohol to cope, but he feels like he has no other choice. The narrator is dealing with the cards life has dealt him, but he is still holding back his tears. He feels like he is the only one dealing with these emotions while his friends are living their lives elsewhere. The chorus of the song describes the narrator's attempt to escape his pain by dancing with his eyes closed. Everywhere he looks, he still sees his ex-lover, and time moves slowly. He doesn't know what else he can do, so he keeps dancing with his eyes closed. The second verse delves further into the narrator's emotions. He is deluded and thinks his ex-lover will come home soon, but he knows it's just a fantasy. He feels like he's lost more than just a friend and can't help but miss his ex-lover. The bridge of the song describes the reality of the situation. The bar is closing, and everyone has gone home, but the narrator is still alone. The song ends with the chorus and the post-chorus reminding us that the narrator is still dancing with his eyes closed, unable to escape his pain. The song suggests that despite the pain and the difficulty of moving on, life goes on, and we must learn to cope with the emotions that come with it.
This song might also be about dealing with pain after a dear friend died

I just lost my father to cancer last week. MARCH 17th. He was diagnosed only 6 months ago and life had been a massive rollercoaster ride for us. I stayed by his side through it all and I just cant believe that he is gone. I'm expecting my first baby in June and had high hopes he would make it to meet his granddaughter 😭💔
I love you Dad and
I miss you everyday ❤
A vida te deve muitas alegrias hoje e pr sempre, o seu futuro e da sua filha serão risonhos.
I'm thinking about you. ❤ I lost mine 6 months ago from cancer too . For me everyday is battle. Fingers crossed for you and your baby.❤ Sending lots of love. You are not alone.
@@jarkasidorova399 Thankyou!!! I really appreciate your comment and the support , life is challenging right now, but with time you learn to keep moving forward. It still doesn't feel right knowing he is gone. I like to think my dad would want me to keep smiling, singing, doing all the things I love, living my life, being the best version of myself for me and baby and keeping the memories of him close to my heart.
I'm sending all the love back at you 10x over!
So much love for you! We got this! 🙏🏻💖✨
I'm so sorry. I'm right there with you, lost my Mama to cancer in January. They'll always be a part of us ❤
❤❤
My dad works as a truck driver and he normally away for 2 to 3 weeks and when I showed this song to him he said “ aww do u miss me when I'm gone" I said “ yes" and I listen to this song when I miss him I wish he could come home every week instead of every other week, thank u Ed for all your songs your my favorite guy singer, I love these songs of yours, perfect, eyes closed, shape of u, shivers, bad habits, those are my favorite ones thank u for these, I'm 12 and u are the best guy singer love u Ed
This is June 2024 and Ed Sheeran is exceedingly emotional, enormously energetic, exceptionally enthralling and exclusively elegant in EYES CLOSED. His singing is singularly soulful, spellbinding, superb, sincere and sweet. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's impossible for Ed Sheeran to make a bad song 💛
Okay but how credible is your source
It’s true but can we be friends

always top notch.
Hi Ed!! My mom passed away in January, and I can’t stop thinking of her. We were so close we saw each other almost every day.
Thank you so much for Eyes Closed. My mom was a song writer and even won a prize for best song that year. Now I am the one writing songs. I hope one day I get the courage to share then with the world. God bless you always!!
You will, I believe in you. I believe you have that courage to do it. Let The Lord Jesus Christ guide you, by The power of The Holy Spirit. ✝️🙏☦️💪💪💪
P.S. Your mom is with The Lord Jesus Christ right now in glory. She is pain free and happy, and one day you will reunite with her on the day of resurrection and be together with her again.
To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord.
God bless you and your mother, in Jesus Almighty name I pray. Amen.
✝️🙏☦️💪💪💪
@@ryanaaservantofthelordjesu9923 thank you so much for the encouragement. God bless you always. 🦋🦋💕💕
I’m so sorry about your friend😢when I heard the story from my teacher it made me very sad
Rip to your best friend ed! ❤😢
One year ago I was taken away from my life due to health issues. I am lucky to be here one year later. But during my hard days in the hospital I would close my eyes plug in and listen to Ed trying to step out of my bubble and ignore the beeps from my machine. Im blessed to be with my family today. Thank for you're music @edsheeran. I'm sorry for you're loss. May you're music bring some peace.
To be honest messaging DR OLOMOOBA was the best choice I have ever made…Thanks for bringing back my ex lover
Who died??

I lost my Sister a little over a year ago to cancer. The sadness truly follows you every where. Ed you captured it perfectly and so beautifully. Thank you for this beautiful song❤
take care im sorry
You have my condolences keep her close to your heart and remember all the great times🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾😢
I'm sorry, Christine :(
I’m so sorry for your loss, Christine
My condoleances, I'm so sorry for your loss.
"This song is about the loss of someone, the feeling that every time you go out you expect to meet them.
Everything reminds you of times spent together.
Sometimes you have to step out of reality to numb the pain of loss, but some things bring you back.
When I thought about how to make the music video for Eyes Closed, I was inspired by movies like 'Harvey,' in which the main character has an imaginary friend who is a giant rabbit that no one can see.
Often sadness is something that follows you around, engulfing the space you are in, and you can feel it and see it, but no one else around you can.
So I decided to create my big blue monster for the video. It gets bigger and bigger as the video goes on, until it takes up everything and it's the only thing you can see, just like the sadness".

Wow I see🥺🥺
WHO is here in April 2024? 🥰
Oh my my... nothing beats the raw emotion of the acoustic version of an Ed Sheeran song! Even the little imperfections make it even more perfect!
Knowing the meaning behind this song got me all teary 😢 Ed sheeran always creates art through his music & tells the story beautifully. Amazing ed! 🫶
kkkkk
Check beautiful gallery lyrics of the song, ua-cam.com/video/yqltDqgdDUQ/v-deo.html
It's very poetic as well, as it also reminds me way too much of his 2017 song Castle on the Hill.
What’s the meaning?
@@babygirllll1234 The song is a tribute to his late friend Jamal Edwards, who passed away last year.
