In September of 1999 my boyfriend, my highschool sweetheart, fell off a cliff and drowned while we were camping. He was 19 and I was 18, and 9 weeks pregnant. Our son will be 20 this year.
You held my gaze You turn my dark to grey I'll never be the same I'll love you always I'll never hear your voice Callin' my name out Well you lift me up You taught me how to reach the sky When I'm down Yeah, you walk alone Through heart on fire And in my mind you lie still See a light I keep it alive You taught me not to imitate I'm only as good as your friendship has made me I miss you waking me up And going down And a whole lot to love 'Cause it's the only way out Yeah, you walk alone Through heart on fire And in my mind I can still See a light I keep it alive
This song is harder to hear for anyone who has lost a loved one. I lost my mother, there comes a point when you start to forget what the person's voice was like. This boy at the beginning of the video moved me, he reminds me a lot of River. I didn't know the River, but it was as if I had know it. The absence that he and my mother left in my life is suffocating. But know I will see them again 🥺😢.
Being so close up on the mic gives that intimate feel but also muffles certain words. Good song RIP the great River. It effected many people that he touched.
River Phoenix passed away at the age of 23, this night of October 31st, Samhain.. My friends and I were having a "happening" celebration, in Gainesville that night, in 1993. It turned into a wake, as the radio sounded with the voice of Joachin crying out to 911 to save his brother. There was a close nit group of people in Gainesville, FL, who care about the Phoenix's, to this day! Goddess Bless you, River and your whole family!!!
Beautiful and haunting like all your music! Keep writing and singing - Your amazing!!! I’m sure River would be so proud of his little sister & taking centre stage! I’m so happy your keeping his memory alive through your music! Xxxxx
Hits the heart I lost my baby bro six yrs ago and have his music to listen to this music is beautiful I can’t stop crying someone is speaking the words I feel. Thank you Rain 🙏🙏🙏
I ordered the CD from her web site and am looking forward to receiving it. I wish the lyrics to these songs were someone on the internet (so far I can't find a thing) because I'm having a hard time understanding her on RUclips.
Rain sent these through for us to post: The way you held my gaze You turned my dark to grey I’ll never be the same I love you all ways I’ll never hear your voice calling my name out The way you lift me up You taught me how to reach the sky when I’m down Oooooh oooh oh you walk on with all on fire And in my mind i can still see your light I keep it alive You taught me not to imitate Im only as good as your friendship has made me I miss you waking me up I’m going down I’m’a hold on to love Cause it’s the only way out aah aah ahh Oooooh oooh oh you walk on with all on fire And in my mind you- i still see your light I keep it alive
Maybe she's talking about someone who "walked alone though heart on fire," suffering & ultimately sacrificing themself. The majority of the song seems to be about how much she loved & missed that person. She still sees their light & keeps it alive.
Beautiful River; there will never be another one like him. ⭐️☄️
What beautiful souls the Phoenixs' are... I would love to know what the people in this beautiful video were reacting to because it is perfect!
Beautiful, and beautiful River. I also had someone that this song encapsulates, from a long time ago... 96. I miss him.
River will forever be a special person, there’s no one that’s like him, he is so special💙

Absolutely beautiful, mesmerising soulful and heartwarming. River would be so proud. I Love you River 💙💙💙
The guy in the very beginning, looks just like River. Is it me, or am I just crazy? Lol. Beautiful song.
Not just you. I actually gasped
You held my gaze
You turn my dark to grey
I'll never be the same
I'll love you always
I'll never hear your voice
Callin' my name out
Well you lift me up
You taught me how to reach the sky
When I'm down
Yeah, you walk alone
Through heart on fire
And in my mind you lie still
See a light
I keep it alive
You taught me not to imitate
I'm only as good as your friendship has made me
I miss you waking me up
And going down
And a whole lot to love
'Cause it's the only way out
Yeah, you walk alone
Through heart on fire
And in my mind I can still
See a light
I keep it alive
came back to listen to this song cause i miss river so much rn
Rain you’re so gorgeous and talented, a godsend, you and your family are one of a kind, so irreplaceable and rare
River will forever live in my heart❤such a beautiful, sensitive, innocent soul, taken from us too soon😭❤
It hurts doesn't it, when you forget their voice. It's really brutal when you have nothing to go back and reference.

リヴァーフェニックスは私が生まれる前にこの世を去りました。彼の作品に出会えて本当によかった。こうしてレインの音楽が聴けることも、すごく嬉しい。

The way you held my gaze
You turned my dark to grey
I’ll never be the same
I love you all ways
I’ll never hear your voice calling my name out
The way you lift me up
You taught me how to reach the sky when I’m down
Oooooh oooh oh you walk on with all on fire
And in my mind i can still see your light
I keep it alive
You taught me not to imitate
Im only as good as
your friendship has made me
I miss you waking me up
I’m going down
I’m’a hold on to love
Cause it’s the only way out aah aah ahh
Oooooh oooh oh you walk on with all on fire
And in my mind you- i still see your light
I keep it alive
@@LaunchLeft Thank you very much!

Lovely.
Beautiful faces

I need lyrics :)

Immolate means kill or sacrifice usually through burning. I'm kind of confused by the title.
It's pretty fucked up, but hey who cares, right? Guy died on Halloween too. I never thought much about this death until I saw that very nasty word.
Remember... their last name is Phoenix afterall. What is a phoenix known for?
@@edub77 They are known for burning....then rising from the fiery ashes 🔥 ...
Only to be born again. And again.
Maybe she's talking about someone who "walked alone though heart on fire," suffering & ultimately sacrificing themself. The majority of the song seems to be about how much she loved & missed that person. She still sees their light & keeps it alive.
@@stacin821 he didn’t sacrifice himself though. He was poisoned by a “friend”
River.
😢.

Just discovered Rain and Alikas Attic stuff and am
figuring out how to play and cover one of the songs. This is very powerful
