Inspired by the Dylan Thomas poem, "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night".
The setting sun, hanging low on the horizon
My heart is numb, as I watch you slip away
You close your eyes, as if the light is growing brighter
And a peaceful gaze consumes your tired face
Do not go gentle, no my love
The angels don't need you above
Rage against the dying of the light
So many lands, still remain to be discovered
So many plans, still are hanging in the air
And there is still, so much I need to learn about you
And the daffodils on silent hills, will never tell me what I want to know
[Chorus]
I never learned, how to be myself without you
When I turn, to face the mirror, I see you
You’re not just half, ‘cause you can’t separate the whole
No long division’s sharp incision, could ever extricate you from my soul
[Chorus]
For everything, there is a time, and there’s a season
But deep within, there never seems to be a reason
When the time comes, I’ll stand beside you in silence
But until that day, don’t go away, it’s not your turn to leave me here alone
[Chorus x 2] - Zábava

This song literally saved my life. A few days ago I was on the verge of committing suicide. Because of financial difficulties. As I was planning it out, I heard the voices. These little fictional creatures I made up. They were singing
Do not go gentle, no my love
The angels don't need you above.
Rage against the dying of the light.
I know I am going to die some day. But it will not be by my own hand.
I am sorry. I hope you are at least "ok" now. I felt the same for almost 30 years but my method is much slower. I try to Die of an overdose or starvation or both.....
Espero te encuentres muy bien, yo también intente lo mismo, fue hace años, pero tengo sueños que cumplir.
life is never easy at all. hand on , friends !!
glad your still here help is never far even online
Cant help but feel warm and hopeful while listening to this. Thank you so much
Josh you are a great singer and poet
The guitar is so wonderful , l like so much,really
Gosh, Josh, that is lovely. My mom was killed in a car accident in 2000. I remember telling my father, at the time, that he couldn't die for at least 15 years. Well, here it is 15 years later and your song just reminded me that I'm still not ready for him to leave. What a lovely, sweet and sad song.
Pamela Craven Thanks so much, Pamela - that means a lot.
この曲が大好きです 👏👏
So peaceful
Beautiful!💞
"When I turn,
to face the mirror,
I see you"
...ICU! I get it now!
Josh, It's so beautiful!
本当に大好きです。
In most cases, stories that are written ( or videos shot) require or inspire a music composition. Josh, this music of yours inspires a story to be written or a video made. The song, in itself, is a story. This and “She Dreams In Blue” are two of your best. Thanks for writing them.
Josh I love your songs you have a great voice and your a a reeeeeaaaaaaalllllllyyyyy good magician keep the great songs coming
Eva Walsh Aww, thanks Eva!
So touching and beautiful, it warms my heart, yet melancholic and thoughtful, I love it so much! Comes just right for me, someone just went, and someone will go soon... Thanks a lot Josh, and lots of love from Germany!

I just wanted to pop by and say, I love your music.
I stumbled across you I think on Tumblr and since then I've used your music in almost all of my videos.
I plan to get myself a bigger memory iPod so I can have room for all of the amazing songs you've created.
Hopefully, one day, I'll be in a position to pay you for the music I use in my videos. Until then I can only say thank you for providing your music for attribution.

Such a beautiful voice, man. I love your songs. The first one I listened to was "She dreams in Blue" and this song's mood really reminds me of that initial one I heard. Thank you. Wishing well your way! Peace
I'm back!
Josh Woodward This song kind of feels like it should be played just before "I'll Be Right Behind You, Josephine". Don't know why, but it just fits. Also, welcome back.
Josh Woodward Greetings Josh.. This is my favourite in a long while. Made me value my wife just that important bit more 😊

Don:Ellis Music Many thanks, Don!
I can't even count how many times I cried in the last 3 days. And this broke the fkoodgates. I barely can see the keyboard. First my Dad had a Mini stroke on the road with me in it and he would have driven home if I wasn't there ! And now my lovely old neighbour with his dog Attila died. I wondered but being depressed I often only go out in the dark. I KNEW HE STRUGGLED TO WALK , SO IF I COUGHT HIM, I would run his shepard mix up and down the Patch of Grass ....but he wouldn't leave his human out of sight.... I should have done more. I knew he was getting worse. I was scared about Winter.....And i don't even know his name out of fear he would think I was only giving him dog treats EVERY TIME I SAW HIM to maybe rob him one day or something... .I should have cared more. Now I don't have a picture and cant even send condolences.
Wow that's powerful.
Fantastic!
Heartbreaking and beautiful
Great job, Josh. Your songs always stir me emotionally.
So good.
Beautiful!
although thousands kilommeter apart the same sadness touches both of us...
It's good to listen to you, Josh!
I love all your songs!
Hey Gosh... this one's really nice ;) Top work.

I like the Song.....
❤❤❤
i love you!
Is this song available on Spotify? It's my favorite!
I didn't find it either. 😢
💙
Like his music, mainly slow
Dang, you did it again! How I'm supposed to practise with no money at all and in the 4 th lockdown. I guess the parody of Vegan Zombies won't ever come up - though it would be a laughable one. every dancer could easily do one in a 4 minute routine... no matter how hard I worked or how much I tried to join an adult class for people with severe illnesses. Dang.
😔
素敵、癒されます。副交感神経が優位になります～❣️
It’s so pritty
Josh, Great job!
I love simple acoustic songs like this, so relaxing. The chorus is very catchy.
What are the chances we can get some guitar chords for this one?

Josh Woodward Josh Woodward Thanks buddy, you're the best
I recognized you from an application EF FOR THE ENGT✨
With or without Dylan Thomas, this is as powerful as the folk idiom gets. At least beating against my 78-year-old ears, with so many friends gone already and others in frail health.
You're not just half, 'cause you can't separate the whole
No long division’s sharp incision, could ever
extricate you from my soul
is brilliant
어느날 국립정신건강복지센터에 올라온 영상에서 흘러나온 이 목소리 기타소리 가슴을 울리는 가사 가수의 떨라는 듯한 목소리 이 노래를 찾았습니다
차분히 두 손으로 나를 감싸듯 위로해주었어요.감사합니다~~♡
This song is comforting to hear after working a long shift at the hospital. Is there any chance of putting on your Spotify?
When is this song gonna be on spotify?
I can't see this on spotify :(
after so much of waiting of 2008.......
That song title gave me Interstellar flashbacks :P
Is there an instrumental of this?
chokiさんありがとう。
Have you stopped making songs? I don't to read your emails as often nowadays.
Interstellar?
EDITED: This should be play at the end of Interstellar movie tbh
