"She'll fight for you like hell, then force herself to like some other man." What a fuck me up line man. John always knows how to hit you right in the feels. I can relate so much.
@@olivierlanglet1932 after a really heartbroken break up, some girls force herself to be with someone new. (Like my ex-gf) I think this line is something John used to tell himself. It hurts seeing our lover with someone new so fast. He used this line as a calmer for him. She's with someone new, but she still loves you
Too relatable from the female side too. Sometimes we’re treated so badly or pushed away, it’s the only way out for us. Moving away and cutting our hair is the same thing too. Just trying to survive…
Every line in this song is a killer. This album came out a few months after I got out of a 5 year relationship, this fucked me up... Big time. I can only listen to it now, powerful song.
landydandy2013 crazy he wrote Continuum & etc other albums, but THIS is the album he feels what we FELT when we connected with ex: Continuum for me, over a breakup...& still reeling from it. John has some growing up to do.
I am physically unable to listen to this song without crying. It’s been two years but still takes me right back to the day he left. I had to delete this song from my phone, but come to it here on YT when I need a cry.
John is one of those special writers that can make anyone in the world in different situations living different lives feel what he's feeling. I love that, so much. Thank you for this experience. That's what this song is, an experience!
I’m 17 and i have a list in my “notes” app one of the things there is to play this album to my children, idk why but the sound of this whole album reminds me of childhood
It's crazy how this song perfectly describes the agony of someone who actually did the leaving. My ex left me, and I know he was hurting as well. My ex listens to John Mayer, and this album used to be what linked us together. To someone from the past, it's never the day you leave that you realize what you have lost. It's the day when you realize, I'm no longer real but just a ghost in your memory. I hope you feel this way about me when you listen to this song. 😊
I recently experienced my very first true heartbreak. I can't even believe I thought I knew what love was before that. Heartbreak is absolutely awful, and you're always looking for something, anything that can help to heal or help you forget it, even for just a little while. Listening to this song, I can't describe how well it speaks to my heart. It brings up every longing, sadness, and happiness in my memories with this relationship. It heals me to know that I am not the only one who is sad, that he also hurts too, and I'm not truly alone in the sadness and pain.
I relate so much to every song by John to the point where I almost feel like him and I lived the exact same life. As if he's narrating my story. John you are my hero.
Ha ha ha Same here. I so much want to sit and listen him talking. And Thanks for those Snapchat and Instagram live chat where he comes to communicate with his fans. He is truly a great human being. Just so great personality. So Cool
I saw him live last night and he is amazing, sounds just like his albums, no autotune and is so creative with his guitar. I loved every second of it. Amazing💙
Aadil Ayub I actually think I saw someone else post that they saw this song live, saw this one and read it wrong thinking it said the same thing. My apologies to Jenna.
I immediately fell in love within the first seconds. It's so sad that media always tries to focus on Mayer's "playboish" side when he's obviously such a talented writer and guitarist! This is one of my favourite songs of the Search for Everything and those "waves" hit me so hard, so close to home. I grew up with you John and I will aways stay a fan of yours! xxx
Noboby disregards him as a talented writer or guitarist. Anybody can still judge him for being an ahole playboy with also acknowledging him being talented. Lmao. U r so dramatic!
This album was the search for the most perfect lyrics, every song is just so meaningful. I thought that Born and raised could never be beaten up but now i'm rethinking about it
Heard this beautiful tune for the first time today on your XM channel. I've lived this tune for fifteen years now with no end in sight Perfection in song. Badge and Gun,Waiting on the Day also hit me good and true. Thanks John Mayer💥
I love songs like this. Songs where you just know for a fact that the artist bawled their eyes out while writing it. I appreciate this, John. We can all relate
what an underrated heartache. this song didnt get my attention at the first time, but when i listened to this song while i was sleeping i felt like i was stabbed by the tone. then i tried to listen to it deeply... the fucking lyrics!!!
No it's never on the day you leave That you wonder what you still believe in And you can't remember why you said goodbye You'll hear an old familiar sound and hope it's her when you turn around But never, never on the day you leave Love grows in the time it's been Since you last heard her sing She'll cut her hair and move somewhere She don't owe you anything No it's never on the day you leave You can tell how it's gonna be To watch a girl become a ghost before your eyes You wish you'd given her one more kiss To put away for a night like this But never, never on the day you leave Love grows in the time it's been Since you last held her hand She'll fight for you like hell Then force herself to like some other man No it's never on the day you leave That you remember Christmas Eve And all the things you miss about her crazy family You'll know how lonely it is to see a little drug store Christmas tree But never, never on the day you leave No never, never on the day you leave So maybe it'd be better off to write her And leave a little note right there beside her That says maybe we're not perfect But I'll be damned if I ever leave Damned if I ever leave Damned if I ever leave
I remember I would play this song on repeat when I was broken up with over four months ago. I cried. I mean, really cried. Listening to it all over again, I cried.
John said that it took a lot to record “She’ll fight for you like hell then force herself to like some other man” because he started to cry when he sang it.
The way he expresses with his music can't be explained in words.. as some of them said.. "it's an experience". His music becomes a companion with all different phases you are going through. Thanks John for all the music and all the emotions you made alive!
Just saw this performed live...acoustic with John on piano...what a legend. He is a once in a generation talent. If you ever get the chance to see him live, DO IT!
I'm old, but I'm not much of a 60s music fan. At a friend's jam session last night, I played this song and it got such a strong reaction from some of the audience that I was asked to play it twice.
The feeling I'm getting from this is wistful, bittersweet, acceptance of saying goodbye. The easy, acoustic, Paradise Valley arrangement is like a smooth but giant pill going down. Tearful and hard at first, but a comforting hug kind of follows, and the sun will shine over the horizon and shit. I can tell, if this was on Continuum, was a lot more distraught in tone, and supercharged with bluesy guitar solos, someone would be listening to this while breaking shit and drowning their sorrows in alcohol.
I really wanted to stop this "whiskey, whiskey, whiskey" thing, John. But you keep putting tunes like this and you're killing me, man. :D Lovely song, really touching. Thank you for sharing your music and talents, it means a lot.
This song is really underrated. Really really. It's an experience. pain always convinces that you are the only one suffering. But with songs like this one can relate. And see how they are not the only one. this is hard yet it too shall pass...
This song hits so close to home. I really wish that I could leave a note saying that I’d never leave but I left and I just pray that it’s not too late even though I fear it already is
Trebor _ its not bad but if your being honest its not a great album. his best albums are his first couple. they were great!!! go back and listen to them. they are music jems.. his last album before this one was pretty awesome. everything he touchs still turn to gold though
JM is a master of emotions, executing his magic deeply once again with this tune. He breaks your heart, but while it's hurting so good!. He's the Man and the King ❣💎👑
Saw this live last month...was so moving....just John and a piano...it was his second encore and so, so powerful. Takes me back to that magical night .
today I woke up with this song in my head. I wake on different days with different songs. I've had other songs of his in my head other days, but today it was this song. I wrote him a song about 8 years ago, and songs just ripen, like wine in a wine cellar. I hope someday my songs fly too. Everything he writes is such a gift for generations. That is living life fully, for a larger purpose, and I am thankful for his example.
this is a song...a real song...words..music..voice all blended to each other...and John Mayer is finest craftman of music with his own unique way...always soulful
Another amazing song without a solo, this says a lot of him as a songwriter. So respect for real musicians as John Mayer. Even more today, when most music is being composed by computers.
If me wanting Katy to get together and break up with John all over again so he makes another great album like this is selfish....Then I'm officially the most selfish person alive.
My long time boyfriend and I broke up this week. This song hurt WAY more than I thought it would. Physically sick to my stomach listening to it actually. But I know that some day down the road it will get easier and I will be able to revisit this song again.
Saya sangat berhubungan dengan setiap lagu oleh john Mayer sampai-sampai saya hampir merasa seperti dia, dan saya menjalani kehidupan yang persis sama. seolah-olah dia menceritakan kisahku. john mayer kamu adalah Pahlawanku😍🇮🇩
I love this song so much!! It speaks so much truth to those feelings you're feeling right after a breakup. I can listen to him 24/7 and still want more. Musical genius quality for sure.
Never on the Day You Leave John Mayer No, it's never on the day you leave That you wonder what you still believe in And you can't remember why you said goodbye You'll hear an old familiar sound and hope it's her when you turn around But never, never on the day you leave Love grows in the time it's been Since you last heard her sing She'll cut her hair and move somewhere She don't owe you anything No, it's never on the day you leave You can tell how it's gonna be To watch a girl become a ghost before your eyes You wish you'd given her one more kiss To put away for a night like this But never, never on the day you leave Love grows in the time it's been Since you last held her hand She'll fight for you like hell Then force herself to like some other man No, it's never on the day you leave That you remember Christmas Eve And all the things you miss about her crazy family You'll know how lonely it is to see A little drug store Christmas tree But never, never on the day you leave No never, never on the day you leave So maybe it'd be better off to write her And leave a little note right there beside her That says maybe we're not perfect But I'll be damned if I ever leave Damned if I ever leave Damned if I ever leave
"She'll fight for you like hell, then force herself to like some other man." What a fuck me up line man. John always knows how to hit you right in the feels. I can relate so much.
Late comment, but he had a hard time to sing this live, because of this line. Can relate too mate.

I think this line is something John used to tell himself. It hurts seeing our lover with someone new so fast.

Omg as a heart broken JM lover. Is she really forcing herself to love someone else? Women need love from a man even if it isn’t us
Too relatable from the female side too. Sometimes we’re treated so badly or pushed away, it’s the only way out for us. Moving away and cutting our hair is the same thing too. Just trying to survive…

This song is so sad but if you've experienced what he's talking about, it's so real. Nicely done, John.
landydandy2013 crazy he wrote Continuum & etc other albums, but THIS is the album he feels what we FELT when we connected with ex: Continuum for me, over a breakup...& still reeling from it.
John has some growing up to do.

Like cry😥😥
it is so relatable, I always tear up when I listen to it.
John is one of those special writers that can make anyone in the world in different situations living different lives feel what he's feeling. I love that, so much. Thank you for this experience. That's what this song is, an experience!
Damn right!
Absolutely spot on
Year 2030: Well son, with this album John Mayer became immortal.
Thanks man! such pretty comment
👌
I’m 17 and i have a list in my “notes” app one of the things there is to play this album to my children, idk why but the sound of this whole album reminds me of childhood
he already has. thank you all the JM fans all around the world
lol
"How lonely it is to see a little drug store Christmas tree" - what a powerful mental image, and I can close my eyes and see it vividly
Miss John & Katy days.
Sad that she moved on but john still misses her everyday, and exposes his feelings through his masterpiece songs
It's crazy how this song perfectly describes the agony of someone who actually did the leaving. My ex left me, and I know he was hurting as well. My ex listens to John Mayer, and this album used to be what linked us together.
To someone from the past, it's never the day you leave that you realize what you have lost. It's the day when you realize, I'm no longer real but just a ghost in your memory. I hope you feel this way about me when you listen to this song. 😊
I feel you
I recently experienced my very first true heartbreak. I can't even believe I thought I knew what love was before that. Heartbreak is absolutely awful, and you're always looking for something, anything that can help to heal or help you forget it, even for just a little while.

It heals me to know that I am not the only one who is sad, that he also hurts too, and I'm not truly alone in the sadness and pain.
Amen...
You will get through this
I relate so much to every song by John to the point where I almost feel like him and I lived the exact same life. As if he's narrating my story. John you are my hero.

hi
sub Zero why?
What? sub Zero
Aadil Ayub I actually think I saw someone else post that they saw this song live, saw this one and read it wrong thinking it said the same thing. My apologies to Jenna.
Jenna Collins misread your comment. I'm sorry. He is great live. Cheers.
I immediately fell in love within the first seconds. It's so sad that media always tries to focus on Mayer's "playboish" side when he's obviously such a talented writer and guitarist! This is one of my favourite songs of the Search for Everything and those "waves" hit me so hard, so close to home. I grew up with you John and I will aways stay a fan of yours! xxx

whaaatt.. i like continuum so much more! I think i just prefer blues over country hahaa
Ana Luiza Medeiros Couldn't agree more!!
Ana Luiza Medeiros Every John album is that way. "There's no way he can top this one..."
Oh wait
Ana Luiza Medeiros that mean kaizen...cheers from Luanda
Continuum is the best and always be the best ❤
"Given her one more kiss, to put away for a night like this".
That is single best lyric I've ever heard from any musician.
I sit here crying.. hoping he is thinking of me like this.
John you did it again... you wrote another master piece!
That final “Damned if I ever leave” is still leaving cuts on my heart
Heard this beautiful tune for the first time today on your XM channel. I've lived this tune for fifteen years now with no end in sight
Perfection in song.
Badge and Gun,Waiting on the Day also hit me good and true.
Thanks John Mayer💥
A voice of silk.
Absolutely
What is amazing about this song is how you can feel the pain of the writer. It is like being invited to the death of loves funeral.
Exactly. This is truly art which is coming straight from heart.... specialy when its broken.
I love songs like this. Songs where you just know for a fact that the artist bawled their eyes out while writing it. I appreciate this, John. We can all relate
what an underrated heartache. this song didnt get my attention at the first time, but when i listened to this song while i was sleeping i felt like i was stabbed by the tone. then i tried to listen to it deeply... the fucking lyrics!!!
beautiful song
Every John Mayer album is this way. "There's no way he can top this one..."
Oh wait
And then Continuum 2 comes out and we all lose out minds
Hey man how you doin, you like the operation wind bastion?
No it's never on the day you leave
That you wonder what you still believe in
And you can't remember why you said goodbye
You'll hear an old familiar sound and hope it's her when you turn around
But never, never on the day you leave
Love grows in the time it's been
Since you last heard her sing
She'll cut her hair and move somewhere
She don't owe you anything
No it's never on the day you leave
You can tell how it's gonna be
To watch a girl become a ghost before your eyes
You wish you'd given her one more kiss
To put away for a night like this
But never, never on the day you leave
Love grows in the time it's been
Since you last held her hand
She'll fight for you like hell
Then force herself to like some other man
No it's never on the day you leave
That you remember Christmas Eve
And all the things you miss about her crazy family
You'll know how lonely it is to see a little drug store Christmas tree
But never, never on the day you leave
No never, never on the day you leave
So maybe it'd be better off to write her
And leave a little note right there beside her
That says maybe we're not perfect
But I'll be damned if I ever leave
Damned if I ever leave
Damned if I ever leave
I don't understand why this song isn't more popular...I think it's so haunting,and the lyrics just get me every time!!
i've never come across anyone who has such a profound way of expressing something tragic as break up. this guy's songs are the soundtracks of my life
I remember I would play this song on repeat when I was broken up with over four months ago. I cried. I mean, really cried. Listening to it all over again, I cried.
I don't know if I've ever been hit so hard by one song. Damn you John, love you so much thanks for this masterpiece of an album and of a song.
This is so heartbreaking and magical at the same time. The ending lyrics made me sob.
Hello how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here.
John Mayer = LEGEND
What a brilliant song.
John said that it took a lot to record “She’ll fight for you like hell then force herself to like some other man” because he started to cry when he sang it.
U John ka mut dawn a piang in ka ngaithla thin😊..Nalh tawp2
John is a genre in himself ❤ artists like John Mayer they are rare now a days
These lyrics are perfectly written, indescribable the feeling inside from this song, what an artist !
So underrated!!
The way he expresses with his music can't be explained in words.. as some of them said.. "it's an experience". His music becomes a companion with all different phases you are going through.
Thanks John for all the music and all the emotions you made alive!
Hooked to this song so much that i am starting to miss Katy Perry.
That's how much pure this song is.
Just saw this performed live...acoustic with John on piano...what a legend. He is a once in a generation talent. If you ever get the chance to see him live, DO IT!
Nice to hear a John Mayer piano ballad. They're always so beautiful. Dreaming with a broken heart anyone?
Perfect!!! like every John Mayer album I can feel his soul through his music.
I'm old, but I'm not much of a 60s music fan. At a friend's jam session last night, I played this song and it got such a strong reaction from some of the audience that I was asked to play it twice.

Too good, John. This song is too good. Thank you so much for creating such a brilliant song, music, tone, tune, melody, and lyrics. Thank you! 💛
I really wanted to stop this "whiskey, whiskey, whiskey" thing, John. But you keep putting tunes like this and you're killing me, man. :D Lovely song, really touching. Thank you for sharing your music and talents, it means a lot.
John is going to save a lot of relationships with this song. This is great!
Amen
He always comes out with new stuff right when I break up with someone haha
Sasha Nash Im selfish but, breakup more every 2-3 years
Hahahaha
thank you John Mayer
This song is really underrated. Really really. It's an experience. pain always convinces that you are the only one suffering. But with songs like this one can relate. And see how they are not the only one. this is hard yet it too shall pass...
This song hits so close to home. I really wish that I could leave a note saying that I’d never leave but I left and I just pray that it’s not too late even though I fear it already is
Does J. M. know that he is the greatest artist ever? At least he is to me. Thank you Mr. Mayer. Y, because we like you.
I came to the conclusion that John is not from this planet. This man can’t write a bad song at all!
Just discovered this song. Wow. Incredible.
Woah... that's... it's... oh my God just... perfect. Thank you!
Genius singer
John Mayer is a God among men
Trebor _ its not bad but if your being honest its not a great album. his best albums are his first couple. they were great!!! go back and listen to them. they are music jems.. his last album before this one was pretty awesome. everything he touchs still turn to gold though
disagree, I love all of Johns stuff but I found his new stuff to be some of his best in a long time. Different is good
Trebor _ different is only good if you like the difference i love his old stuff. i like his new stuff.
Fair enough
JM is a master of emotions, executing his magic deeply once again with this tune. He breaks your heart, but while it's hurting so good!. He's the Man and the King ❣💎👑
An incredibly beautiful song that gets into your heart and stays there forever.
Philippines loves you MAYER!!!
clint sawangin So much love for him
damn right
2017 is an awesome year for music!
Saw this live last month...was so moving....just John and a piano...it was his second encore and so, so powerful. Takes me back to that magical night .

Hello how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here
John's every song is so so relatable and feel like he makes songs for each and every person. and his lyrics are nothing but Stories
After your first major heartbreak, listening to songs like this hits harder than ever before.
this is a song...a real song...words..music..voice all blended to each other...and John Mayer is finest craftman of music with his own unique way...always soulful
How is it possible to not to break down in tears after hearing this ?
Another amazing song without a solo, this says a lot of him as a songwriter. So respect for real musicians as John Mayer. Even more today, when most music is being composed by computers.
So beautiful. such an artist
Favourite track off the new album
This is the John Mayer I adore, awesome song truly. Love you John
If me wanting Katy to get together and break up with John all over again so he makes another great album like this is selfish....Then I'm officially the most selfish person alive.
Ptheven lee I actually think he wrote this entire album thinking about Katy. I especially hear it in Still Feel Like Your Man
Ptheven lee it's comments like yours that make me proud to be a part of the Mayer FANily
AGREED
totally agree with you!!
totally agreed, i like katy and john but its wrong if want to them back again.
First time hearing this song on Spotify 4 years ago. And today I'm here. Thank you John.
My long time boyfriend and I broke up this week. This song hurt WAY more than I thought it would. Physically sick to my stomach listening to it actually. But I know that some day down the road it will get easier and I will be able to revisit this song again.
I hope this finds you well now :)
Perfect set of songs to end The Search For Everything. It's complete and full of art and emotions. Excellent stuff!
my favorite singer !!!! Love you bro , so soulful
Oh, John Mayer, how everything you do finds its way straight into my heart as if it originally came from there.
Whata beautiful song!!!! John i really love you...theres no one like you..
Keep on making your beautiful music John❤️
This song is so emotional and one of my fav. You can tell it was so real and personal.
Hello how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here.
Damn these ninjas cutting onions.
jokes of the year
John makes you cry , sob and a lil more wise 🥺🥺
"maybe we ain't perfect,but I'll be damned if I ever leave"❤️
I made my ex listen to this song, cause he knew I how much I love John. Who would have thought he would be dedicating this song to me now.
Hello how are you doing it’s nice meeting you here.
Never tired listening to john mayer music. Pleasse keep making musiicc🤤
Wonderful song
Amazing how 7 years have flown quickly past...
And now we've stopped fighting for them like hell....
Saya sangat berhubungan dengan setiap lagu oleh john Mayer sampai-sampai saya hampir merasa seperti dia, dan saya menjalani kehidupan yang persis sama. seolah-olah dia menceritakan kisahku. john mayer kamu adalah Pahlawanku😍🇮🇩
April 22 Las Vegas, cannot wait!
This is the bliss I really miss
Love this song so much
My search for Everything is complete!!!!!!
John said this is the saddest song hes written - No song will ever be sadder than Dreaming with a Broken Heart.
These are really awesome lyrics. The title caught my attention, and the verses are very true. He is saying powerful things here people.
This instantly became my favorite song on the album. After 1 listen im already singing along :D
john, thanks for sharing these. I like where you went with these
Nice to see other musicians already doing what they love in life. Your music pushes me to keep at my own dream! 👏⭐️💓
Her Birthday was on Christmas Eve.. man I miss her so much
One of the best John Mayer songs ever. Totally love this song...
I love this song so much!! It speaks so much truth to those feelings you're feeling right after a breakup. I can listen to him 24/7 and still want more. Musical genius quality for sure.
God bless you John.
This totally relatable .. what an underrated song
Never on the Day You Leave
John Mayer
No, it's never on the day you leave
That you wonder what you still believe in
And you can't remember why you said goodbye
You'll hear an old familiar sound and hope it's her when you turn around
But never, never on the day you leave
Love grows in the time it's been
Since you last heard her sing
She'll cut her hair and move somewhere
She don't owe you anything
No, it's never on the day you leave
You can tell how it's gonna be
To watch a girl become a ghost before your eyes
You wish you'd given her one more kiss
To put away for a night like this
But never, never on the day you leave
Love grows in the time it's been
Since you last held her hand
She'll fight for you like hell
Then force herself to like some other man
No, it's never on the day you leave
That you remember Christmas Eve
And all the things you miss about her crazy family
You'll know how lonely it is to see
A little drug store Christmas tree
But never, never on the day you leave
No never, never on the day you leave
So maybe it'd be better off to write her
And leave a little note right there beside her
That says maybe we're not perfect
But I'll be damned if I ever leave
Damned if I ever leave
Damned if I ever leave
