Rob Thomas understands raw human emotion in such a way that can only be matched by some of the greatest poets in history. He will forever be a legend, a special gem.
Rob Thomas... you will forever be my absolute favorite singer in history! The way you pour every ounce of your emotions into everything you do, is incredible. You deserve every single thing good in life! ❤️
After losing my wife, this song really hits me hard. I love her with all of my heart! Maybe she’ll see someday what she meant to me. These lyrics are my life and our marriage, I slipped over the years and now I’m paying for it now. It’s getting easier and harder at the same time, I don’t know how to explain how that works but I feel changes happening in my heart and brain. God bless anyone grieving like I have!
You too brother. My wish for you is to please try to forgive yourself for however you define slipping. I promise you she knew some days then, and I bet now too. Real love stays, even if people go. Lean on God and believe you are loved beyond measure. Her too.
oh Man i fell the sabe thing because my girfriend leave me and i dont know why about the Things that came and changes the life i hope one day she come back to me
What a beautiful song. It also makes me think how painful a relationship can be, especially being married for 26 years and all of a sudden you want out,wish he would of told me when I was younger even though the pain would still be there.
Jus gotta push on, life does what it does,peoole do what they do n we jus gotta be who we are and keep on going. Nobody's got any control over what another's gonna do. Keep ya head up and if somebody ain't gonna be there, let em go.
That whole album is top notch. It's where Rob Thomas cemented his place as one of the best songwriters of the last 25 years. And he's got a great voice to boot.
One of my all-time Matchbox Twenty's favorite… apart from the amazing words, the emotion in his voice makes me feel it even deeper inside, just love it
The line "we will see who's sorry now" is just an illusion, but I get what he is trying to say it just to make him feel better. Because once its over, it doesn't matter who's sorry, it doesn't matter who is better or happier. Its fucking over.
anthony psilocybin yet you can hope for happiness for each other. Tbh I think that's proper if you did care at one time. Happiness is found in different ways and people need to part to find their own
I am 53 years old and I have been since I was 36, I love his music, I fell in love with his lyrics from his group Tabitha's Secret ... I have followed him since then .... I have all his cd ... I love his music and the. ..I have felt identified with each of your letters ... thank you for sharing this topic in particular
so sad when either one decides it's no longer what they want...it hurts like hell ...whatever the reason...when someone really loves you, hold on they'll never let you go!
This song just gets me. I just love Rob Thomas! I remember I couldn't wait until the release of the Mad Season album. I was even happier when my friend treated me to the Mad Season concert. A memory I will always cherish.
through time and space stood a man and he took his place one of the best voices and songwriters ive ever had the pleasure of listening to loves it always *That God given voice can make a person melt and truly soo soulful
Actually never heard this song before... every heartbreak song is now about my kids, and this one is no exception. They left me for their dad, and I have had my heart on life support for 5 years...
i’m sorry. i know the feeling of the constant burning in your chest and stomach, the missing pieces, the emptiness in the mornings. i get it. i’m sorry that you get it, too.
+Bruce Ogden The important part now is to put it down. I played the same game and held on for a dozen years to the heart break which destroyed any chance of success with any of the 50 women I dated in that time.
LOVE LOVE LOVE Rob Thomas & Matchbox 20"s songs. It it very rare that you see a woman much less a man be so in touch with their feelings to even express them but then to not only express them but to then physically write em down so that the words are felt into ppls hearts to the depths of their souls; some even so much so that tears can't help but ro form. I just love and most importantly respect the fact that he is able to do this. a true singer, storyteller and most of all a jam up ARTIST especially in a world where there's more 1 hit wonders that are never remembered past the point of --IE-- Alright stop congratulate and listen Ice is back with a brand-new invention something grabs a hold of me tightly... Vanilla Ices- Ice ice baby lol... Bruce Ogden my best advice is gonna sound funny but it does pump u up and puts you in that frame of mind that u need to be in too get outta that toxic "relationship" your... Listen to that song by G-Eazy called "You Got Me" if u hadn't already and then re-listen and if that don't do then well idk but it did it for me lol. I wud say good luck but there's no such thg as luck bc we make our own 😜😜😜
So many incredible Matchbox 20/Rob Thomas songs just like this one. Rest stop Hand me down Push Overjoyed Cradle song Some day Little wonders Bent Back to good I could go on and on. This is the only band/artist that I’ve listened to over the past 25 years where not one single song struck me as nothing special. Every single one of his songs are so beautiful, full of deep lyrics and music. I hope Rob continues to put out such amazing songs for many years to come.
Me and my girl of 5 years split a few months ago. Matchbox 20 and Cc was our first concert together. I had this cd for a long time and I found it today. Forgot all about this track. It hits so close to home. My favorite track on the album.now.
Your better of if there's pros and cons which are linear list you've got your list is longest there's your answer you deserve no drama.. No yelling just agree to disagree on the topics won't I've never cheated on or my self my parents did it's wrong you communication gonna be addressed but intimacy even opposite sex in grace details is just like screwing another cheat cheaters cheat their the accusers every time you deserve better leave
Matchbox 20 is and always be the band for ppl with relationship probs. Not only do we have them but Rob Thomas has them as well... He wrote this song after a 2 year long relationship to a woman that he truly did love. But she left him for a guy that made a lot more money that him... How could she do that??? He's so much bigger that that guy she is currently with... Just saying.
I live this song but im getting warn out . love dies m t really exist, at least not on a two way street. I've search all the 63 years I've been on this Earth for someone to love me just the way i am .. To be his #1, but i keep coming up # none . You would think i wad hideous appalling to look at or listen to. Because i always end up the one hurt.. Im exhausted from the hurting ., loving this mans talents. It's like he live his lyrics and put them out there with everything he has . Though i hope and pray and beg god to take me out of THIS altogether tonight . He's a blessing , an angel. Thank you for everything you gave me .the heart and broken ❤ you've gotten me through.
This song most of the songs this band puts out helps anything. Through my teenage year's these guy's were my emotions. Had a few strokes and now i have more emotions than i can do. this band puts my mind( what's left of it somewhat at ease).
This song describes a fucked up relationship perfectly. I love this song, so much. ive loved it since i was like 10. I'm twenty two now.... This song actually means something to me now.... Now i understand why my mom cried everytime she listened to this song.... Makes sense..
I'm not saying there wasn't nothing wrong I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me I'm now saying we ever had the right to hold on I just didn't wanna let it get away from me But if that's how it's gonna leave Straight out from underneath Then we'll see who's sorry now If that's how it's gonna stand, when You know you've been depending on The one you're leaving now WHAT A BEAUTIFUL LYRICS
Matchbox20 has been favorite since the band came out...It's shows Rob Thomas songwriting ability is so amazing....Leaving you speechless ...This song it actually is now im going through
Love his music and his writing comes from him and his wife's experiences they had in life and past experiences. I write poems so I know tthey come from the heart.
fucking love this song. thank you, rob thomas. one of the best songwriters of our time. i’m so grateful to be alive at the same time as you and these masterpieces you created.
I just lived these lyrics and I have always coverd Rob and the band and someone recommended this to me and I don't know how I had never heard it before but when the music stops and he delivers the verse towards the end almost like he was just talking I lost it. I started crying like a baby having gone through a pretty recent breakup it was like Rob was there and wrote that for me. Damn
This song will always remind me when I was going through such a painful divorce. So beautiful and I can finally listen to it now without breaking down.
One of the best songs ever written by Matchbox 20 ! I have so been in this kind of a relationship and this song express my thoughts on the whole ordeal !
Carrissa Miller Yep. A million different break ups, and a million different broken hearts, but it all comes down to basically the same thing. And this song helps it break a little more.
Rob Thomas understands raw human emotion in such a way that can only be matched by some of the greatest poets in history. He will forever be a legend, a special gem.
True💯
Rob Thomas is a lyrical genius
❤️🌞😊😘
Absolutely 💯, he's talented from within
This man writes the best love songs ever , best singer and best band

it was rampant in society
Rob Thomas... you will forever be my absolute favorite singer in history! The way you pour every ounce of your emotions into everything you do, is incredible. You deserve every single thing good in life! ❤️
Rob Thomas is great. I love all his songs,and I listen daily and I am 63😎😁😂
Good sings don't have an age limit.
Such raw emotion in his voice. This song makes me cry.
There are always strings that get pulled.. Only fools believe NSA is believable.. 💔
That voice. Those lyrics. It's impossible to listen to this without getting that ache in your chest and those chills. Such an amazing song.

Omg help
26 years.mmm mmm mmm
2022 and still hits hard. Wish I would have seen things clearer years ago. Wasted all that time for someone who couldn't care less. Lesson learned.
A. M. E. N. They’re always the best group around and they will always be my favorite group of all time!!❤😝💕🫶🏻🫶🏻
Rob Thomas writes such incredible songs. He really has a way of putting all of the gut wrenching stuff into worlds

The most beautiful lyrics sung with the most beautiful rawness...........oh Rob....
Rob has always been my go to guy when I'm dealing with a heart brake
Same girl broken again lol enough is enough
+Bruce Ogden The important part now is to put it down. I played the same game and held on for a dozen years to the heart break which destroyed any chance of success with any of the 50 women I dated in that time.
Jay Jensen You make a very good point. It is so true yet can be so hard to do.
Sorry you're feeling like that today. Maybe you'll fee better tomorrow. Life is like a rollercoaster. Buckle-up!

I could go on and on. This is the only band/artist that I’ve listened to over the past 25 years where not one single song struck me as nothing special. Every single one of his songs are so beautiful, full of deep lyrics and music.
I hope Rob continues to put out such amazing songs for many years to come.
I never could/would *LEAVE* you, Rob Thomas! *sighs* He is just about as close to a perfect man as one can get!!
Tracy Richwine yes mam him and Dempsey!!
Wow I was very impressed by this song but I've learned not to doubt Matchbox Twenty and listen to all. They're incredible.
This entire album was just a complete masterpiece. It was like a goodbye to 90s era music.
Love this song . Rob is a one of a kind artist love it
This is such a great song.
this and "bed of lies" are probably my favorites but I listen to most of their songs
Yes! Bed of Lies is another great obscure song amongst the dozens of amazing works written by this awesome band!
Such a masterpiece! 🔥🧡

Megan Uptain
L
Same with my Mom. She listen to Robs music like i do to this day. :(
I'm not saying there wasn't nothing wrong
I just didn't think you'd ever get tired of me
I'm now saying we ever had the right to hold on
I just didn't wanna let it get away from me
But if that's how it's gonna leave
Straight out from underneath
Then we'll see who's sorry now
If that's how it's gonna stand, when
You know you've been depending on
The one you're leaving now
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL LYRICS

One of the best songs ever written by Matchbox 20 ! I have so been in this kind of a relationship and this song express my thoughts on the whole ordeal !
this song helps break my breaking heart.
Carrissa Miller Yep.
A million different break ups, and
a million different broken hearts, but it all comes down to basically the same thing. And this song helps it break a little more.
Carrissa Miller
It's amazing
How you make your face just like a wall
How you take your heart and turn it off
How I turn my head and lose it all
Listened to this song 2yrs ago this exact video and it's funny how it's still just as important as it has been since I discovered this band
Message to self a month later... Dude you we're fucking right
Somehow this song just makes things right
