This is an original song from the Derik Nelson Band record, "NORTH" which is available on iTunes here:

Every year after the holidays, my siblings and I put on a concert in our home which we have appropriately named "The Winter Concert." This performance of "Forgive Me" was from our 5th annual Winter Concert, which took place on January 8th, 2012. This song means a lot to me... I felt so privileged to have such a wonderful and supportive audience of family and friends to share in the performance that night, and such an amazing group of people sharing the stage with me.
Joining me on stage are my good friends (from left to right):
JACK KOVACS - guitar
BRIAN "THEORY" HARGROVE - piano
NICK CAMPBELL - bass
BEN ROSE - drums/percussion
Many thanks to my sibs Riana and Dalten (who got a break from singing to pick up the cameras to shoot the video during this song) for helping to make such a special concert happen. As always, Dalten directed & edited the video, and I recorded & mixed the audio.
Again, if you want to get the album version on iTunes, here's the link:

We have this thing called pain, today I am here. I have the joy of music and I have light in my heart ❤. Thank you!
Tears are flowing as I feel these lyrics all the way to my soul. So so Beautiful.
There's a reason why we fell apart,
a reason I will never know.
I put up walls to guard my fragile heart,
what a shame they were built so low.
Because here I am waiting for apologies
for causing this familiar kind of pain,
and I here I stand knowing that if the phone would ring,
I'd be at your door and waiting in the rain.
If I misunderstood, misread you like an open book,
forgive meeee, would you forgive meee pleeeeaseee?
If my tongue misbehaved and dug my heart an open grave,
forgive meeee, would you forgive meeeee pleeeeeaseeeeee?
....
What's the problem, I don't see my dear,
and tell me where did I go wrong?
I dream of ways to make my feelings clear
and wake up knowing we should move along
because what's the use in chasing after yesterday
when yesterday keeps slipping out of view?
And though it's true, Idk what tomorrow holds,
but I know tomorrow, I won't be holding you.
If I misunderstood, misread you like an open book,
forgive meeeee, would you forgive meeeee pleeeeasee?
If my tongue misbehaved and dug my heart an open grave,
forgive meeee, would you forgive meeee pleeeassseeee?
After all is said and done, I might finally find someone
who understands the way I see the world;
but till then, I'll bear the weight of finding out the truth too late.
I've driven you away, I've driven you away.
I've driven you away, awaaaayyy, awaaaaaay, yeeeeahhh ohhHHHHHH.
If I misunderstood, misread you like an open book,
forgive meeee, would you forgive meeee pleeease?
If my tongue misbehaved and dug my heart an open grave
forgive meeeee, would you forgive meeeee pleeeeeasssee?
....
I'm really glad that I stumbled across "Derik Nelson Band". The sound is so unique that I would recognise it instantly under thousands of songs! Great work Derik!
Today I spent the whole afternoon listening to your music, Derik. In your atmosphere, Gravity, forgive me, like rock and roll and the radio, and circle, are my favorites (Lol, I'd pick your whole channel... you're really that good). I'm Daniel, your fan from Buenos Aires, and I send you a big hug!
Dani, thank you SO much for this kind comment!!! I really appreciate you letting me know! I’ve always wanted to visit Buenos Aires and send you a big hug back! 😄
@@DerikNelson that's so nice to hear. Buenos Aires will be waiting for you, and I'm sure you guys will love the warmth of people. You already have a tour guide to show you all the corners 😋 And Derik, please keep making your own music, we'll continue to support you wherever you go (and holding down the fort).
@@DerikNelson it’s so beautiful,I’ve been there and it’s definitely worth going
Damn right there's no dislikes. Nobody would dare dislike this and it should stay that way because he is AMAZING!!!!
I got the chills listening to him sing this.
your voice is velvety chocolate. every time i hear you sing its like "ughhh just beautiful."
... fell in love within 5 minutes and 16 seconds.
Derik, this is the kind of music that gets you right in the heart and you stop breathing for a bit because your heart's trying to hold on to that feeling that comes in each note. It's amazing. I don't have a personal experience with the song's lyrics, but it still leaves me crying! Please don't stop making your own music! It'd be a shame to deprive someone's heart of this feeling if you did!
Wow, this is simply beautiful. I don't cry often, but I sat down and saw this in my suggestions and listened to it, and cried. You have a wonderful voice, and I'm so glad to of discovered you!
What a marvelous voice he has!
oh my gosh, this is my jam!!! I love the development of the song :)
This voice is mesmerizing.
BEAUTIFUL as always ..seriously listen to your music every night when I'm setting in for bed....you have one of the most beautiful mesmerizing dreamy voices I've ever heard..LOVE IT & YOU!!

Simply amazing. You really need to do a DVD of a whole concert like this.
I'm not surprised at your success because I always believed in it.
( I'm sorry if my English is not perfect.)
You said you wanted some feedback: It sounds as good as on the cd! You have the gift of capturing your audience. There's not one spoken word I can hear from the audience during your performance. Rhythmically and melodie wise it's perfect too. Your work with dynamics is also great. There's simply nothing to critisize! Great work Derik! I really hope that you're already thinking about a new album with the Derik Nelson Band because your combination of jazz and pop is so unique and outstanding!
@Lorraine Sobretado this is is still one of the most incredible compliments I could ever receive... Thank you so much.
Wow... this song is amazing...
Quel talent !
Awesome and live to boot. Great stuff!!!
Spasibo for this brilliant music.
You're voice is amazing and your song writing skills too.
I love how easily your voice slips into your falsetto register, it's mesmerising!
That was awesome!!!!
OMG, I love your voice !
Amazing..., a great quality sound in a house, a mix very good. And the voice and lyric song, is really good. Congratulations, you have a new "fan".... Regards!!!
@Manu220798 i AM the guitar player on GLEE!! haha! Maybe that's why you saw the resemblance... :) And the hollow body electric that I play on the show is a VOX, not Ibanez. But good eyes! (and thanks for watching)

His voice and this song reminds me of michael buble
Really more John Mayer than Michael as far as chord structure, timing and resonance.

Wow, this is realy, realy nice! And great sound quality! What did you use to record this? I thought i saw the studio live? And what DAW do you use? Greetings from Belgium ;)
