I kissed the love of my life for out first kiss on this song.. I remember not being able to hear this song for 2 years after she left me.. now it always reminds me of happier days
I cannot understate how many times I have heard this song. For the time that I was with my daughter we incorporated this song EVERY night. She would sing it, I would sing it, we would listen to it and sometimes sing along. I’ve hardly seen her in four years and I still can hardly listen to my favorite song without breaking down crying. My wife knows Rise is my favorite band; she has treated me to each concert near us since we’ve been together, the best one was on (day of, not near or weekend of) my birthday in Chicago when they toured for Ghost Notes Symphonies. I just wish I could convey to Tim how much this single song after all these years has had such an impact on my life.
See them live this year. He's doing this solo acoustically and it's outstanding!! I just saw them last night and they played 21 songs. Amazing show!!!!!
Am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up? Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck? Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost? I'll show you mine if you show me yours first Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words We live on front porches and swing life away We get by just fine here on minimum wage If love is a labor, I'll slave 'til the end I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand I've been here so long, I think that it's time to move The winter's so cold, summer's over too soon So let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow I've got some friends, some that I hardly know But we've had some times, I wouldn't trade for the world We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go We live on front porches and swing life away We get by just fine here on minimum wage If love is a labor, I'll slave 'til the end I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand Swing life away Swing life away Swing life away Swing life away
I deserve a do-over. I am 43. Been homeless 95% of the time since I was 16. I can honestly say that I HATE my family. They abused me and threw me away as a teenager. I am not complaining. I have NOBODY in this world and I am a friendly, generous, helpful, kind person. My mom said that she was torn about having an abortion when she was pregant with me at 19 years old. She is a "Christian" so she didn't kill me before I even got a chance to breathe my first breath.
@@rogergemelle213 I just listened to it again to be sure, and while I can tell some of it is a not-so-good microphone issue... he definitely sounds... tired? A bit rough here indeed here and there. Maybe it was a long day. Who knows, but it is definitely not his best and that is okay. Maybe you should change your name to "Roger needs to learn proper English" since you want to be an ass-hat.
Really a shame, because this song was my anthem when it came out and I was 16 and rebellious. Not only is he singing too close to the mic and off-key here, his voice is not in sync with his guitar part either, and it's made worse by the fact that he doesn't seem to remember how to play the song. The chords in the chorus are all wrong, and check out that botched ending to the little interlude 😟

Still one of my favorite songs of all time
We just used this as our song at our wedding. It was such an amazing choice that no one was ready for. It was perfect!
Was it for your first dance?
Same :)
@@ssjEasterBunny yes, it was!
Am I loud and clear or am I breaking up?
It was in our wedding video in January of 2007. Great song
That solo... Amazing... Sounds almost like two guitars. So talented

I know it can be hard to accept but If she left you, she probably isn't the love of your life. Love will find you again.
😢
My favorite song. As someone who lives in Chicago, it's may and 43degrees, "I think that its time to move."
If love is a labor, I'll slave till the end❤
I won’t cross these streets until you hold me hand 💙🖤
@@Mintwinter13 ill show you mine if you show me yours first!
Huge sound by that acoustic
I remember the summer of 2004 when this song came out. I always loved the music video with the red pick up truck driving around at night!

Very touching Testimony, thank you for sharing it.
Best rendition of this song
That song save me from the darkest part of this living.
Still one of my favorite songs of all time. I will hold your hand.
Amazing, love this song forever. timeless feeling
Forever in my heart
My all time favorite song.. I’d kill to see them play it live.
See them live this year. He's doing this solo acoustically and it's outstanding!! I just saw them last night and they played 21 songs. Amazing show!!!!!
Still my favorite
Tim makes me cry. That is because his lyrics are the soundtrack of my FUCKED UP LIFE. real talk.
Make it better. We are with you if you need us
Am I loud and clear, or am I breaking up?
Am I still your charm, or am I just bad luck?
Are we getting closer, or are we just getting more lost?
I'll show you mine if you show me yours first
Let's compare scars, I'll tell you whose is worse
Let's unwrite these pages and replace them with our own words
We live on front porches and swing life away
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor, I'll slave 'til the end
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand
I've been here so long, I think that it's time to move
The winter's so cold, summer's over too soon
So let's pack our bags and settle down where palm trees grow
I've got some friends, some that I hardly know
But we've had some times, I wouldn't trade for the world
We chase these days down with talks of the places that we will go
We live on front porches and swing life away
We get by just fine here on minimum wage
If love is a labor, I'll slave 'til the end
I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand
Swing life away
Swing life away
Swing life away
Swing life away
🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤
When love is a labor don’t slave till the end cross these streets while he holds your hand. Or she.
It's reminds me of Marc fitt first video

russian hands in the air!)
