This song is a beautiful expression of grief, and the fighting and driven spirit that it can inspire. That’s an aspect of grief that isn’t represented that often, so I really respect Danny for creating such a hype song about something so personal and sorrowful.
I lost my father when I was 3 and since I first heard this song 2 years ago it has become the soundtrack of my life. I'm gonna be a singer one day and when I make it there I'm covering this song. I'll probably end up breaking down or choking up on stage. Thank you The Script, all of you are my heroes. I love you Dad and I miss you more and more everyday...can't believe it's been 12 years without you. I hope your proud.
Hi, I've discovered this song and your comment only now. So, I'm really curious: have you made a cover of this song? No matter what your answer will be, I'm sure that your dad is proud of you. He will always be
I saw this the year it came out, at the PNC Arts Center in NJ. It definitely brought the house down and everybody sang along to it, despite the torrential downpour.
i was browsing another website while listening to this and i forgot it was a live version! they're so good, they sound exactly like the audio! can't believe they do all the chorus perfectly too! definitely my fav song of the script!
If you could see me now would you recognize me? Would you pat me on the back or would you criticize me? Would you follow every line on my tear-stained face Put your hand on my heart that was cold Love that
"If You Could See Me Now" (Oh if you could see me now) (Oh if you could see me now) It was February 14 Valentine's Day The roses came but they took you away Tattooed on my arm is a charm to disarm all the harm Gotta keep myself calm but the truth is you're gone And I'll never get to show you these songs Dad you should see the tours that I'm on I see you standing there next to Mom Both singing along, yeah arm in arm Now there are days when I'm losing my faith Because the man wasn't good he was great He'd say "Music was the home for your pain" And explain I was young, he would say, "Take that rage, put it on a page. Take the page to the stage. Blow the roof off the place." I'm trying to make you proud Do everything you did I hope you're up there with God saying, "That's my kid!" [Chorus:] I still look for your face in the crowd Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now) Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow? Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now) (Oh if you could see me now) If you could see me now would you recognize me? Would you pat me on the back or would you criticize me? Would you follow every line on my tear-stained face Put your hand on a heart that was cold As the day you were taken away? I know it's been a while but I can see you clear as day Right now, I wish I could hear you say I drink too much, and I smoke too much dutch But if you can't see me now that shit's a must You used to say I won't know a win until it cost me Like I won't know real love 'til I've loved and I've lost it So if you've lost a sister, someone's lost a mom And if you've lost a dad then someone's lost a son And they're all missing out, yeah they're all missing out So if you get a second to look down on me now Mom, Dad I'm just missing you now I still look for your face in the crowd Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now) Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow? Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now) Oh, oh Would you call me a saint or a sinner? Would you love me a loser or winner? Oh, oh When I see my face in the mirror We look so alike that it makes me shiver I still look for your face in the crowd Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now) Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow? Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now) Yeah I'm just missing you now I still look for your face in the crowd Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now) Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow? Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now) You could see, you could see me now [2x]
i just can't listen to this song without crying!
Same here!;(
The first time, I listened to this song. My heart just dropped.
Lost my dad 8 years ago and feels like yesterday. Thank you for this song.
Stay strong beautiful. He's in a better place than this world, watching over you. Until the day you both meet again, may his soul rest in peace.
Just think he's up their in heaven laughing well u are trying to do all his tasks (I'm trying to cheer u up)
I feel you.
Same with me.
Often its painful but its also a beautiful thing. Like he feels so close or something..
16 years now, hope you're doing well and good in life ❤️
I lost my dad 7 years ago and I lost my mum 6 months ago
This has got to be one of the best performances of the script live.
"I hope that you´re up there with God saying, That's my kid" Love it!!

He sounds amazing live!!!
One of the best bands to grace Graham Norton's show
i don't know how they can perform this song without getting choked up knowing their parents are not there anymore
Oh really?
@@windyks 😐
@@Messimaad14 what
@@windyks what kind of a question is that? He’s literally told u what he thought and u say “oh really”
@@Messimaad14 oh im sorry. What i meant was i didn't know their parents were not there anymore so that's why i asked that.
Favorite band ever

A. Alina then you have never lost anyone close to you.
Karim Melikian i`ve lost my dad
i'm really sorry A. Alina. i misread the first reply
Jose Nava i lost my grandad
Danny and Mark are amazing...
Sounds note for note the same as the album version. Few bands can do that. The script will go down in history
I saw this the year it came out, at the PNC Arts Center in NJ. It definitely brought the house down and everybody sang along to it, despite the torrential downpour.
They are soooo great... basically no autotune added to their music video! Love you guys!!
Music is the home for your pain
I lost my brother 3 years ago and i like to think that he will always be by my side. He's thr sweetest person i ever met.
i was browsing another website while listening to this and i forgot it was a live version! they're so good, they sound exactly like the audio! can't believe they do all the chorus perfectly too! definitely my fav song of the script!

Only one word for this song: powerful
This hits different now since Mark is gone. Rest in power, Mark

This sounds literally exactly the same as the studio. Not sure whether to be suspicious or impressed
+CPmuddle27 Impressed dude! :)
No, it's definitely not the same as the studio version! =) you have to be impressed, really, they're the best band ever!
+CPmuddle27
Not the same. I thought for a few seconds it may have been lip-sync'd but it isn't. They do really sound that good live!
+Fenna Kooistra ikr i love them so much
+CPmuddle27 I saw them live, very impressive.

RIP Mark Sheehan (October 29, 1976 - April 14, 2023), aged 46
My condolences go to his family.
♥ Love this song ♥
This song is powerful and I've seen it performed live in cork on the first night of the #3 tour.epic.
I didn't think they would sing this song live as it was so personal to them. Dan did say in an interview they find it difficult to sing the song live.
This song will be in a Academy Award winning film
oh the feels this gives me :/
this kind of song deserves more likes than stupid songs that most of us dont understand...i love Script!!!
Love this song (: and The Script! x
i even cry when listening to this song :C
Danny, Glenn, and Mark! love 'em
Best band ever
If you could see me now would you recognize me?
Would you pat me on the back or would you criticize me?
Would you follow every line on my tear-stained face
Put your hand on my heart that was cold
Love that
'When I see my face in the mirror we look so alike that it makes me shiver' Love that line (:
"If You Could See Me Now"
(Oh if you could see me now)
(Oh if you could see me now)
It was February 14 Valentine's Day
The roses came but they took you away
Tattooed on my arm is a charm to disarm all the harm
Gotta keep myself calm but the truth is you're gone
And I'll never get to show you these songs
Dad you should see the tours that I'm on
I see you standing there next to Mom
Both singing along, yeah arm in arm
Now there are days when I'm losing my faith
Because the man wasn't good he was great
He'd say "Music was the home for your pain"
And explain I was young, he would say,
"Take that rage, put it on a page.
Take the page to the stage.
Blow the roof off the place."
I'm trying to make you proud
Do everything you did
I hope you're up there with God saying, "That's my kid!"
[Chorus:]
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow?
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
(Oh if you could see me now)
If you could see me now would you recognize me?
Would you pat me on the back or would you criticize me?
Would you follow every line on my tear-stained face
Put your hand on a heart that was cold
As the day you were taken away?
I know it's been a while but I can see you clear as day
Right now, I wish I could hear you say
I drink too much, and I smoke too much dutch
But if you can't see me now that shit's a must
You used to say I won't know a win until it cost me
Like I won't know real love 'til I've loved and I've lost it
So if you've lost a sister, someone's lost a mom
And if you've lost a dad then someone's lost a son
And they're all missing out, yeah they're all missing out
So if you get a second to look down on me now
Mom, Dad I'm just missing you now
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow?
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Oh, oh
Would you call me a saint or a sinner?
Would you love me a loser or winner?
Oh, oh
When I see my face in the mirror
We look so alike that it makes me shiver
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow?
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Yeah I'm just missing you now
I still look for your face in the crowd
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
Would you stand in disgrace or take a bow?
Oh if you could see me now (Oh if you could see me now)
You could see, you could see me now [2x]
