Lyrics
When love was found,
I kept my hope just like I'd hoped to,
Then sang to the sea for feelings deep blue.
Coming down,
We've had problems that we've grown through,
But I bet you dream of what you could do.
At seventeen I was alright,
Was like nothing I could feel inside,
And wishing you were here tonight,
Is like holding on.
But I still get to see your face, right?
And that's like nothing they can take, right?
So there won't be no feeling in the firelight,
Hoping this will be right,
Time to show your worth, child.
I remember when her heart broke over stubborn shit,
That's no way to be living kid,
The angel of death is ruthless.
And I'm always thinking summertime with the bikes out,
Pushing our luck getting wiped out,
Days with nothing but laughing loud.
Underneath my coat won't you tap my shoulder, hold my hand,
Nights with nothing but dark in there,
You can be my armour then.
Island smiles and cardigans,
The nights that we've been drinking in,
We're here to help you kill all of this hurt that you've been harbouring.
Confessions should be better planned,
Alone, that night, I'm surely damned,
Run away. I'll understand.
What's important is this evening I will not forget,
Purple, blue, and orange, red,
These colours of feeling, give me love, I'll put my heart in it.
I think about it all the time,
The lights went out, you were fine,
You kinda struggle not to shine.
I still love you though, I still love you though, I still love you always..
Hold me when I'm home, keep the evenings long, crack and break and part ways..
And I wonder if I could let her down
It's for real, it's for real
Bruh I’m a grown man and at around 2:15 I was tearing up... this is the kinda music you gotta listen by yourself, alone, and allow yourself to feel everything.
this comment includes the word "bruh" but i still think it's real astute. hell yeah, brother
I agre you shoud listn to it youre self and fill every ometon he probly felt when he rought it becous it is pure poety and evry song is about somthing bad that becoms somthithg good because in lost he sings about things be in bad and good because he is lost and dousent know wher to stand
wait..grown men aren't supposed to cry?
Bruh bruuuh ya
Same bruh. Fucking same.
This is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard
Agreed, I am stuck here
Indeed!
can't listen without being in tears. his pain in his voice is something i've not heard in a long time.
IT is :(
Yes it is
I love how his voice sounds almost like a drunk kind of sad in the beginning and it sounds like he gets more sober and suffers from even more sadness
This comment made me cry. So true
Damn that’s deep
This was a poetic comment if I've ever seen one
love how is voice progresses. "purple blue orange red" that part and every part actually is sung so amazingly. Hopefully you become big one day, you well deserve it
He did it, 2 Years later :)
I love that part. The emotions that he sing with is just amazing, every time
I love that part. The emotions that he sings with is just amazing, every time
that's what hooked me. this dudes throwing punches left and right and i'm getting hit on each one
Yes!!
Who is here from 2020 listening to this amazing mans music💕
literally me
Me
I typed in “lost” for search and found him! I am utterly lost in his music now. He is wonderful, real, raw and true and I need his music.
@@sasha13278 me
Been here since 2016🎶🎧🪐🔥
Sick that this guy isn't a world famous artist yet. He is absolutly amasing. Best music i've heard for a long time
Oskar Johansson sad thing is the trash artists become famous and people like Dermot get left behind
there are a lot of super talented artists that just dont get enought credit, meanwhile 50000 people pay a fortune to go to a miley cyrus concert
He is now
A fucking starrrr
:')
The SOUL he puts into every line. This man is a gem.
bro he's an ireland soul so duh
There's something about his music, this song in particular, that just pulls whatever emotions I've been repressing to the surface, and I just listen and cry.
Hayley Jewett me too
Me too!
Same girl Same.
Its the reminder in his lyrics that evoke an emotion out of you. You should always find sometime to let yourself be though.
It’s been 4 years since your comment....I hope you have been able to see him live. I didn’t even wear makeup to his concert because I knew there wouldn’t be any left on my face afterwards
Still coming back six years later.... The first song I ever heard of Dermot’s. ❤️
mine was power over me
Same! Found him from So You Think You Can Dance epic routine to this song! My favorite dance and song still ❤
Me too! Best song ever made…
I am utterly completed addicted to this artist. Don't think someone has touch my heart and soul like this since Jeff Buckley. So much talent
I hope you get the chance to see him in concert.
The first couple of times I listened to this song, I didn't "get" its magic. I didn't listen. Like with many things in life, things pass by you and you don't notice how beautiful it is because you are not paying attention.
But I went back again and again, attentively listening from beginning to end over and over, and the song opened up more and more. I started not just hearing the words and sounds but listening to them, letting it sink deep in.
It's a song of life. It's an adventure. It's a story. The progress in this song is so rare, how he starts out so quiet, almost talking. Building up until almost screaming at the top of his lungs. The power in this song is out of this world. Power is not how strong you are, but how you can go from fragile and powerless to regaining strength. This song is like regaining your power. This song is special, it's a treasure.
I did a cover of this (female version), it'll never be in Dermot Kennedys league, but I couldn't not play and sing this song myself, I couldn't just let it pass by me. The things we treasure most in life we will keep close.
Just recently heard this song and fell in love with it instantly. Definitely music for the soul. I am going to see him March of 2020 as well. Wish I could hear your cover!
@@jasonr2246 you're so lucky! Would love to see him live. Go check out my cover on my channel if you'd like 😊
The power is overwhelming
And he puts it on his album “without fear” 5 years later
And its still AMAZING
you can see passion in people who sing a song with their eyes closed
The progression of the song and it's mood makes it very surreal. Thank you for sharing your feelings with us.
Anony Mous I completely agree about the progression.
this is one the most breath-taking songs I've heard to. Thank you SPOTIFY!!!!
Yes. Found this song in some western playlist on spotify years ago. Gushed over dermot day after day and now he is big! This is his best song though, for sure.
After one of my playlists stopped Spotify played “ Couldn’t Tell” and “Moments Passed” back to back and I’ve been hooked since
When love was found
I kept my hope just like I'd hoped to
Then sang to the sea for feelings deep blue
And coming down
And we've had problems that we've grown through
But I bet you dream of what you could do
At seventeen, I was alright
Was like nothing I could feel inside
And wishing you were here tonight is like holding on
But I still get to see your face, right?
And that's like nothing they can take, right?
So there won't be no feeling in the firelight
Hoping this'll be right
Time to show your worth, child
I remember when her heart broke over stubborn shit
That's no way to be living kid
The angel of death is ruthless
And I'm always thinking summertime with the bikes out
Pushing our luck, getting wiped out

Run away,. I'll understand
What's important is this evening I will not forget
Purple, blue, orange, red
These colors of feeling, give me love, I'll put my heart in it
And I think about it all the time
Lights went out, you were fine
You kinda struggle not to shine
I still love you, though
I still love you, though
I still love you always
So hold me when I'm home, keep the evenings long
Crack and break and part ways
I still love you, though
I still love you, though
I still love you always
So hold me when I'm home, keep the evenings long
Let's not crack and break and part ways
And I wonder if I could let her down
It's for real, it's for real
It's for real, it's for real
Olida Zafy what this song mean? About love? About a old love??

@lisa Gkill we believe you. We all do feel the same.

Need his voice today, he gives me emotion when I can't show any 🙏 something about his voice breaks me open
ditto x
ditto x
same here
Same, I've never been moved by an artist so much. He's incredible.
He was just on Jimmy Kimmel, and I love his album, but this here, this still gets me like day 1.
So weird to have been listening for years remembering how many times I’ve watched this on repeat and not knowing (but at the same time knowing) several years later the world would be his stage. He’s such a treasure. ❤️
The emotion and build up in the song is so heart achingly beautiful. Even though i've never personally experienced a romantic relationship i can still feel the pain in his voice and the lyrics.
I guess it's not only a portait of romantic relationships.. also friendships. We mess things up, we're human, but we're also here to talk about them, clear them,get it right
Absolutely beautiful. The emotions you capture are so raw. didn't think I could ever find something like this
This made me realize something very important: Even though he left me broken and partways.. i still love him. It forced me to get myself back together. It was the hardest part of my life so far, but it was so worth it - and this is why I'll always be grateful for him.
This song is 7 years old? It’s one of my top played songs in 2022. I can’t believe I missed out on this as it happened. There are so many years of loving this song I didn’t have ❤️❤️
I love how much passion is in his voice. When he brings on that intensity you can see it in his face. He may be the only guy I've seen with his veins throbbing while playing piano lol. Love you Dermot. You're a treasure
Absolutely horrible that he isnt breaking records world wide. Definitely belongs on the big stage. This mans voice needs to be heard globally
this is poetry
I cannot believe he isn’t mainstream. But selfishly I’m glad he isn’t, haunting, melancholy yet hopeful.
Extraordinary.
Several years ago I heard this randomly playing on my Spotify when I woke mid sleep at 3am. I was hooked. I played it over, I searched for the artist and song on RUclips and stopped here. I should be embarrassed by the amount of times I’ve watched this video, but I have no shame.
This is where I met my adoration of that voice. So here I’ll keep coming. 😍
This song leaves me speechless every time I hear it, and I find myself listening multiple times daily. By far my favorite Male singer!
”you kinda struggle not to shine” Chills everywhere ❤️
This man's voice is from the Gods I swear!
This gave me chills .. wow, just wow.
This is what i called music, why does music like this not hit the charts???
By the way you are amazing, i hope i will hear more from you.
Discovering Dermont was Magical BUT this Song WAS AN EXPERIENCE FOR MY SOUL JUST REDISCOVERED REAL MUSICAL TALENT .... TY
I cant stop l istening to your music over and over again. Its so beautiful. It really is unique Dermot. I appreciate your music so much. Cant wait for more and more. You should definately come the US !!! I would so watch you live !!!! 💖💖💖💖
Also, you have real emotion put into your music in a special kind of way. 👍🏽
He ment every single word of that performance believe
Dermot is a reflection of the passion inside each one of us; brimming with Love and Strength. Thank you to each being who helped align the world to bring this song into existence. Thank you!
Yes say that
@@motherearthwhitebufflowcalf23 “aka motherearth” made me smile. 😊 thank you. 🙏
Laughing and loving are the best things to feel when they are raw. Glad I could make you laugh. :)
@@motherearthwhitebufflowcalf23 I completely resonate with your words. This is the reason I love to create Laughter and Joy in on my channel. Perhaps nuggets of love will tempt you to experience my channel. ruclips.net/video/GivLwQalNEA/видео.html
Just checked out his album 'without fear' in 2020 and can't belive this beautiful song is literally 5 years old! How could this talented guy walk past without a trace on me😲 love the emotions he puts in every word!
This, this is one of the best songs I’ve have ever heard.
He started his set with this song when I saw him live and had my grown ass in tears within minutes
This is the kind of music where you'll be in the zone and just feel the meaning and the emotion of the song. Amazing.
I’ve been to so many music festivals and concerts.. even saw Paul McCartney but the other night when I attended Dermot Kennedy’s concert in Chicago, I witnessed an artist pour his whole entire soul into his music. Unreal!
Super-talented people freak me out. Imagine if your friend just said "hey, I wrote a song on the piano" and belted this out, this raw and with this much emotion. You'd never look at him the same way again. I'd just leave. Nothing more to say.
This song is so emotional because he’s feeling every word, every note...and you can tell
Best version of all.
INDEED
The best artists are often underrated. Dermot is one of the best alive.
His voice is just dripping with raw pain and passion. I cannot stop listening to this song
Please, please, write more! I am obsessed. Your songs are so poetic and speak straight to the heart.
samesiiesssss
Listen to giants
Discovered this song a week ago on spotify. Can't stop listening to it! So good!!!!
same:) thanks spotify
This song just moved me to tears and I'm a grown man - wtf just happened. Immediately purchased tickets for Oakland show. This is raw talent. Keep writing man - you have a gift!
He's coming to Oakland? That's not too far from me. I'd love to see him. He's incredible.
The way I can hear your hard heartfelt meaning in each word and see it in your passionate face of emotions is what makes your music and this song so beautiful
I can't watch this video without crying. The passion and love Dermot puts into performing this song amazes me every time. This is one of the most beautiful and moving songs I've ever heard. I'm so thankful for his music.
This... This is art.
This is actual, unabashed, undeniable art 🙌🏼
Just here for my daily listen :)
Love you so much Dermot ❤️
My god this song moves me. It reminds me of my mother so much. The freedom she gets after ending our relationship. I listen to it as I mourn our relationship. It’s so beautiful.
Yes folks you did just hear this song on Love Island, prepare to be blown away by his music!
Unique talent..
This song is just pure magic.. I've manifested so much in my life listening to your music . Every song is just so heart felt and everyone single one of us can relate to each one. Your my favourite go to dk 💓
this is really such an amazing song.. always makes me cry though. last summer i saw this after seeing it in a dance show and downloaded it and listened to it a few times, then about an hour later i got a call that my aunt died, we were so close, i lived with her. i know the lyrics of this song talk about death, and the title is an evening at will not forget. ironically, it seems like this song was made for my exact situation that night, and i’ll never understand fully why i found this particular song that night. there isn’t any other song that has ever had as much of a personal meaning and has such raw emotion in it, i don’t even know how to describe it. it’s just so incredibly moving. especially because i feel attached to it in some way. forever this will be one of my favourite songs 💛 💛
Your music and your voice are just so healing and touching
You know it's a great song when you have to sit an silence for a while after the song ends just to take it all in.
Bravo. So good.
I love how he shared his emotion and pain in such a beautiful way ♡
The world needs more music like this
I think this will always be my favourite song from Dermot ❤
This one and "Without Fear" are my favorites.❤
A friend of mine put me onto Dermot this year (2022) and I am so grateful that he did, his music and lyrics are SO beautiful
After rain, for island fires and family, and this song... POWERFUL. I thank you for your music man. It's brought me to my knees in weeping joy. Praise the Lord Jesus Christ.
No Gimmicks, No Ego. ..just beautiful fucking music from the heart
A masterpiece. Feeling grateful to have found such a raw and talented beyond words of an artist.
I just came back to this acoustic version because I love everything Dermot does and wanted to see the origins of this song. My eyes are watering. This is one of my favorites ever. Been listening to the Without Fear album nonstop since it's 2019 release. The words and raw emotion from this man are so powerful. Glad he blew up. You are so talented Dermot! Hope to see you in concert one day.
my jaw dropped and I started crying, i've literally never been so moved and i've heard this song so many times before its just something different live
you must come from a place deeper than man has ever gone before.
To have so much power and yet be so vulnerable at the same. My stomach flipped, this song takes your breath away. It's beautiful. 🌻
I just discovered this song thanks to a performance in World of Dance and I’ve got to say, this is a masterpiece. This guy’s wrongfully underrated.
I'm new to listening to this man and I can honestly say I'm completely obsessed. He makes me feel like I'm listening to what love sounds like.
Your voice is so powerful. This song drove me to tears and chills. I can feel the emotion in my whole body.
He is speaking my heart outloud. Pure unadulterated passion...raw and alive and real.
This is absolutely beautiful. I listen to it all the time.
I'm Korean! Who loves your music very Your music is my island where i can relax. Thank you
i love this song so much. i've recently discovered it and it has been stuck in my head for days. I find it so full of emotion and well composed.
Hoping to see more of you Dermot xx
Siria Janis I
The amount of emotion I feel while listening to this song is incredible. The pain I have been through suddenly is spoken in different pitches and dynamics.
What has always stood out the most to me about Dermot’s music is that when he plays, you don’t just hear it - you feel it. It fills up every part of you and suddenly you are there with him, in that memory. Artists like that don’t come around every day. We are lucky to find them once in a generation.
This dude is freaking unreal great music...
It gives me goose bumps every time is listen to this, every single time.
5 years later and it's amazing to see the growth, even more amazing live. Incredible. ❤️
Such a wonderful wonderful artist!!!
Still one of my favourite songs of all time. Seeing him live in Brisbane in may was the highlight of my decade 🙌🏼
Holy love of everything....talent, soul and a God's gift....ty
I still come back to this version
What an amazing voice and song..
What a lifesaver!!! For Real!!
One of the most soul reaching songs I’ve ever heard. 😭
2:30 - will always give me shivers on those notes 😳
Magnifique harmonie entre la voix et le piano
IM OBSSESED WITH YOU! This is just so pure. Wish the best with your career! This is talent and made cry. And Im made of stone, man.
This song is heartbreaking but i keep coming back to it as it's so God damn beautiful 😪
Beautiful lyrics with an even more beautiful voice to sing them.
The realness, the rawness, the emotion, and passion in this video is everything. ♡
this voice, this song, amazing....pls keep on going
Didn't realize I was holding my breath until he played the last note and I exhaled.
Mikey S don’t be putting us down bud
there are few songs that you can hold in high esteem and never forget and this is one of those beautiful striped back masterpieces of all time again Dermot thank you.❤️
this is the best song i ever heard you put so emotion in the song.
