One of the best songs ever, and surely PG's best rendition of this song I've heard. Her band unfolds a wonderful sound carpet here which carries these magic moments.
Had the one of the worst years of my life this year, been about as bad as it could be. I needed some music like this. I love her voice, and the lyrics.. music to mend the soul
Bobby Price, hoping life has treated you better over the last 6 years. Hoping you are safe and happy and healthy and at peace. Every blessing upon you.
The only voice that can pierce through my very bones and gives me a sort of feeling that glimpses me to the heavens.. That's why she will always be my most favorite singer songwriter of all time..
OMG,what a perfect voice,first time hearing this exquisite song,can’t explain,but tears running down my face,came to her through Robert Plant Touching something inside 👏👏👏
There will never be agreement on "the most beautiful song," but this gets my vote. My first dance with my wife at our wedding - this song sums up love and commitment and knowing they are the most important when times are tough.
No, this isn’t exactly specifying love story..more so the general friendship that should exist in the world…no one ever came for me whom I had previously loved.. there were those, strangers, who go looking for you…?
Damn it this song brings tears to my eyes every darn time...whew what a heart stopper, how dare Patti remind me like that of Love felt and Love lost, also it was beautiful to read through the comments just to see the many many people who are so impacted by this song as well ❤
I first encountered this song in a documentary called " A Lion In The House". It follows 5 children in the USA as they battle cancer. They don't all make it ... Amazing documentary that has stayed with me, literally, as I ordered a copy from USA.
I just watched 'A Lion in the House. I have never been moved so much and this song sealed the emotion. A beautiful voice from a singer I had never heard of previously.
This is one of Patty's epic songs. From an exquisite concert DVD that is beautifully filmed. Patty is perfect. Her band is great and the selection of songs is excellent.
Believe me, I can relate. My wife came down to the basement one evening and discovered me weeping nearly uncontrollably while watching this video. I couldn't explain to her what the problem was. I didn't even know. Except that it has something to do with Patty's voice ... because there are others of her songs that have the same effect on me. As far as I'm concerned, she and James McMurtry are the two greatest songwriters of my generation -- and that encompasses a huge number of very, very, very great songwriters.
Patty Griffen Patty Griffen Patty Griffen Patty Griffen Patty Griffen I read so many of the comments , beautiful, emotional, loving, moving, tears, memories and joy. I tapped like on all of them and put 'Patty Griffen ' over and over for my comment. A singer/ songwriter you'll remember.
Look up “ A Lion in the House” a documentary about 5 children battling Cancer…. The Film makers from Yellow Springs, Ohio picked this song when running the credits of the film at the end❤ A Beautiful Song that brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it…… By the way, my daughter was one of those 5 kids with cancer… God rest her sole…. I Love You Alexandra
Red lights are flashing on the highway I wonder if we're gonna ever get home I wonder if we're gonna ever get home tonight Everywhere the waters getting rough Your best intentions may not be enough I wonder if we're gonna ever get home tonight [Chorus] But if you break down I'll drive out and find you If you forget my love I'll try to remind you Stay by you when it don't come easy ....whoa-oh I don't know nothing except change will come Year after year what we do is undone Time gets moving from a crawl to a run I wonder if we're gonna ever get home You're out there walking down a highway And all of the signs got blown away Sometimes you wonder if you're walking in the wrong direction yeah....hey.... [Chorus] So many things that I had before It don't matter to me now Tonight I cry for the love that I've lost And the love that I've never found When the last bird falls And the last siren sounds Someone will say what's been said before Its only love we were looking for So when you break down.... [Chorus]
This song means a lot to me tonight while I was listening to all of the news and stories from Texas and Louisiana about the Harvey damage and flooding.
And this one, maybe a all time favo? When you struggle, when you fight, the fighting can't be enough sometimes, when it doesnt come easy. Ill try, ill fight but i doesnt come easy. Sometimes I wonder If I am walking in the wrong direction, I will remind you, I stay by you right there, that place, my soul, my lucky soul.
When I discovered no one was coming the inspiration( truly) prompted this contemplation…I wasn’t driving for 30 years, I was walking and I reverse the sentiment there..the signs blown away were literally the remnants of the many big blows I encountered
thaaaaaaaank you for uploading a great quality video of my favorite PG song .... this version is ethereal .... soul food . . . . thank you thank you thank you ...
I posted this long ago I glad someone’s paying attention to music it’s awesome the best things in life are simple and good morn sunshine jus be enjoy your day
I just bought the Video on ebay. This reminds Me of Emmylou and Daniel Lanois on Wrecking Ball. Great Song, thanks for Posting. I'm looking forward to seeing the rest.
Well , I say “believe” because not every listener needs to experience to hear Patti so beautifully render the storyline: lots to see when the road is your home for 30 years …and that’s why I delineated this part : I was just arriving or leaving prior to, or arriving post at least 6 hurricanes
The inspiration for all the signs being blown away was specifically Simpsons seafood market marque on hwy98 through Destin, Fl by the hurricane just prior to Katerina
Though not new material, heard this performance for the first time this week. Listening to it constantly. Never heard anything more perfect. Amazing, inspiring. What a beautiful concert venue. Mention is made in other comments about a concert DVD. Where & when was this & how can I find the DVD? Thanks.
+Jeffrey Kingdon Excellent recording. "Patty Griffin: Live from the Artist's Den" Commercially available. Bought my copy at Barnes & Noble. WELL worth it! Enjoy.
@RemoVegas You're more than welcome. The Patty Love needs to be shared. Now let's hope YT won't delete this as it has been flagged as Third Party content but I'm not uploading the whole DVD so hopefully it will make people want to see the rest of it for themselves. It's a superb show.
Actually if you were to look at the original album cover, the song is titled, When it doesn't come easy...which makes you wonder if Spell correct fucked up the title of the song on the album. Regardless this is one of the best songs ever written about friendship, God or whatever value you place on people, Have never heard a better explanation of love...
I'm in one of those moods where the tears keep building up right behind my eyelids....I raise a glass to every woman I have ever loved.
Thanks, Julio, mens rea est primum
Sang this song as my sister's cancer was taking her places the rest of us could not go.
One of the best songs ever, and surely PG's best rendition of this song I've heard. Her band unfolds a wonderful sound carpet here which carries these magic moments.
Agree 12 yrs later ✊🏽✌🏽
Patty's vocals and songwriting find my soul and bring bittersweet tears. It's a sound that gently cuts to the bone.
and gently holds your hand at the same time.
Had the one of the worst years of my life this year, been about as bad as it could be. I needed some music like this. I love her voice, and the lyrics.. music to mend the soul
Bobby Price, hoping life has treated you better over the last 6 years. Hoping you are safe and happy and healthy and at peace. Every blessing upon you.
A talented, sensitive performer. A gifted songwriter. One of the very best.
This woman is a treasure!!!
The only voice that can pierce through my very bones and gives me a sort of feeling that glimpses me to the heavens.. That's why she will always be my most favorite singer songwriter of all time..
She is one of my favorite female singers/songwriters of all time too! God gave her such a gift and what a gift it is for us to get to listen to her.
ditto! So we'll put!
Such a beautiful song written and sung by such a talent.
I wrote this song
love to see joy on a musician's face when they're playing...bass player so into it!
you are a gift from God Patty Griffin
Not a stretch to say PG is one of the best songwriters of all time.
OMG,what a perfect voice,first time hearing this exquisite song,can’t explain,but tears running down my face,came to her through Robert Plant
Touching something inside 👏👏👏
There will never be agreement on "the most beautiful song," but this gets my vote. My first dance with my wife at our wedding - this song sums up love and commitment and knowing they are the most important when times are tough.

I wrote this so I can specify
Patti WASNT exactly sure about ‘the last siren sounding’..?
Patty is the most talented female voice out there. I adore her. So glad someone on The Voice sang one of her songs tonight.
How can anyone put "thumbs down" on this song, I guess they just don't listen very well!
Damn it this song brings tears to my eyes every darn time...whew what a heart stopper, how dare Patti remind me like that of Love felt and Love lost, also it was beautiful to read through the comments just to see the many many people who are so impacted by this song as well ❤
What a flawless performance
reminds me of my past relationship, bittersweet, tears.
Patty Griffin is a treasure, such a wonderfully sensitive and gifted musician. This song ... we all need friends like this ❤

Mary Boyett love and light fwend. I'll pray this round is thrdw last for you. God speed.
Thank u i go for my pet scan fri i love this song it has help me get through chemo💜💜💙

Mary Boyett How are you now Mary? It’s been 2 years and I’m curious. Are you doing OK?
You need to listen to the version with Patty and Melissa Ethridge as she says the exact same thing!
This is a great f’n performance ✊🏽✌🏽🫶🏼
This song tore me apart at the end of an episode of "Nurse Jackie." I've never been the same since.
I first encountered this song in a documentary called " A Lion In The House". It follows 5 children in the USA as they battle cancer. They don't all make it ... Amazing documentary that has stayed with me, literally, as I ordered a copy from USA.
I just watched 'A Lion in the House. I have never been moved so much and this song sealed the emotion. A beautiful voice from a singer I had never heard of previously.
Thank you for the kind words about the documentary……. My Daughter Alexandra is the dark Curley haired angel in the film….God rest her sole
The effortless in her voice and all of that from such a tiny talented woman...wow, just wow.
This is one of Patty's epic songs. From an exquisite concert DVD that is beautifully filmed. Patty is perfect. Her band is great and the selection of songs is excellent.
Brian Mattox where can o find this DVD?
@@scriptingjonster1735 Amazon has this DVD “Live from the artists den”
Voice of an angel
Not sure why, but this song brings tears to my eyes. Every time i hear it . Every damn time.
Believe me, I can relate. My wife came down to the basement one evening and discovered me weeping nearly uncontrollably while watching this video. I couldn't explain to her what the problem was. I didn't even know. Except that it has something to do with Patty's voice ... because there are others of her songs that have the same effect on me.

I kind of like bruce cockburn....
Check out Ray Wylie Hubbard. Conversation with the Devil is my favorite among many like his Grifter's Hymnal album.
There’s a strong tenderness and fierceness to her music. We all want to be loved like that.
Gets me misty eyed too on the red.
Amazing song delivered perfectly by PG & her band ... can definitely hear the Emmylou influence.
Rips me to shreds every single time….just sublime!Heartened to see people really getting this-humanity will prevail ✌️
absolutely love patty griffin and this song is especially poignant and beautiful
Thank you BadFluffy! Beautiful song...beautifully done by the incomparable Patty Griffin. She is an American treasure!!!
The sentiment is universal and unavoidable. You will be either the subject or object of this song, or both at different times. . .
Patty Griffen Patty Griffen Patty Griffen Patty Griffen Patty Griffen
I read so many of the comments ,
beautiful, emotional, loving, moving,
tears, memories and joy. I tapped like on all of them and put 'Patty Griffen '

A singer/ songwriter you'll remember.
do you know the name of the guitarist?

Such a great wordsmith
Gets You. Love this Song. Patty Has a Fantastic Voice. Thanks.
Red lights are flashing on the highway
I wonder if we're gonna ever get home
I wonder if we're gonna ever get home tonight
Everywhere the waters getting rough
Your best intentions may not be enough
I wonder if we're gonna ever get home tonight
[Chorus]
But if you break down
I'll drive out and find you
If you forget my love
I'll try to remind you
Stay by you when it don't come easy
....whoa-oh
I don't know nothing except change will come
Year after year what we do is undone
Time gets moving from a crawl to a run
I wonder if we're gonna ever get home
You're out there walking down a highway
And all of the signs got blown away
Sometimes you wonder if you're walking in the wrong direction
yeah....hey....
[Chorus]
So many things that I had before
It don't matter to me now
Tonight I cry for the love that I've lost
And the love that I've never found
When the last bird falls
And the last siren sounds
Someone will say what's been said before
Its only love we were looking for
So when you break down....
[Chorus]
Yes, i havent proofread your copy , but I did write this lyric
When the last word falls, I think
I love this version! Just beautiful, achingly lovingly beautiful~
Patty.....no one else like her....pure beauty
This song means a lot to me tonight while I was listening to all of the news and stories from Texas and Louisiana about the Harvey damage and flooding.
love watching the bass player...and piano player from small faces, way back when
Pure beauty in every aspect.
so powerful and beautiful; a meaningful song by one of the best female artists of our time
love Patty
This. One of my favorite female singers. What great lyrics too.
what an amazing talent!!!what a vocal range!!! this song touches my soul,Thank you Patty Griffin!!!
Love this version of the song, the lead guitar gives the song a whole new voice the way it builds--sort of a U2 vibe.
I Can't THANK You ENOUGH For Posting This Video In This Quality & Sound..!
And this one, maybe a all time favo? When you struggle, when you fight, the fighting can't be enough sometimes, when it doesnt come easy. Ill try, ill fight but i doesnt come easy.
Sometimes I wonder If I am walking in the wrong direction, I will remind you, I stay by you right there, that place, my soul, my lucky soul.
I love this song! It’s so beautiful. It reminds me a little of “Maryland” by Vonda Shepard.
What an Angeletic voice
What a gift, thank you.
Sublime duo between the voice and the guitar
When I discovered no one was coming the inspiration( truly) prompted this contemplation…I wasn’t driving for 30 years, I was walking and I reverse the sentiment there..the signs blown away were literally the remnants of the many big blows I encountered
Pure poetry
Wow what a beautiful song and singer
If you forget my love, I'll try to remind you..
This simple line is the most meaningful piece of art it just tears at the heartstrings 💕😭
This song is so beautiful. Thanks for posting and love from Denmark.
glad folk is still alive, and well, awesome singer
It's only love we're looking for...
Such endless beauty
Most Universal Singer In Concert""..........MUSIC"........

Absolutely amazing!
This projected from me …for the driver I continued to look for … for me, and believe the part about signs blown away is literal
For 25 or 35 years literally
Well , I say “believe” because not every listener needs to experience to hear Patti so beautifully render the storyline: lots to see when the road is your home for 30 years …and that’s why I delineated this part : I was just arriving or leaving prior to, or arriving post at least 6 hurricanes
The inspiration for all the signs being blown away was specifically Simpsons seafood market marque on hwy98 through Destin, Fl by the hurricane just prior to Katerina
Although it’s literal it is also philosophical
Though not new material, heard this performance for the first time this week. Listening to it constantly. Never heard anything more perfect. Amazing, inspiring. What a beautiful concert venue.

Love this!!! ❤️❤️❤️
One can only take a product of mine to a margin of approaching the Blues render, not limited by it..
I wanna be loved like that ❤
As I say, this is the positive scenario..no one ever came looking for me on that highway…I certainly thought about that, though
As soon as it was hard for you, you were gone Aaron Dean Burt.
It's that funny how that works ? I'm sorry. Been there . Hope things are better
Superbe VOIX !!!!!!!!! magnifique ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Hi, very nice :-) enjoyed, greetings
But have you ever been out there..?
@emorene Glad to share. Especially if that means more people get the show. Emmylou and Lanois... now that's a duet of giants :)

Stunning!
The last word falls actually and a sign is found
