[ericmills]

One of the greatest songwriters of all time, such emotion in every line of every single song.

[jeffparmley]

His voice and lyrics remind me of a simpler time and place when life was so good and music was at its finest. I truly enjoyed the alternative era when music spoke with so much meaning!

[breezybears]

90s and early 2000 when you had to deal with heartbreak and pain bc there wasn’t social media, fast internet and instant gratification. You just had music and art. Or go on a walk to clear your mind if your friends were unavailable. Such a beautiful time. That ended in 2001 💔

[nightfallstrings]

Never fails when you hear a song over and over then suddenly an acoustic version and it sounds like a new song

[laurabennett-etjp]

I’m just sobbing . I love him and match box so much . I’m 46 now and mad season saved my life when I was 23 and went through a devastating break up

[TheDenmarie]

This crowd are what all concerts are suppose to be like.... no cellphones out ... all in the moment.... awesome video!

[gingerperkins]

[nathanbarnier]

This is me… the world tells me different. What a beautiful mess this experience is. I wouldn’t have it any other way way

[Andredecan]

Seriously loving this version… fabulous…

[amandasananda]

This touches the core of my being my soul my spirit in such a way that noone or nothing else ever has or can or will.

[GratitudeHappinessBacon]

This man... this man is a genius. His lyrics are so good. His voice is so good... and his looks?? Well his wife is a lucky woman. :-)

[NoOverXplain]

Can't take this song off of my favourite list still....

[jenniferovalle]

Rob Thomas is an amzing artist! He is better than any of these new singers or writers! Id go see him a million times over any one else!

[renwhite]

Wow I have never heard him live, probably my favorite vocalist of all times, he kept it all these years

[CharlesEthan-decf]

Yeah! What like they said if you want to go back to the past even if you don't have a time machine, just listen to this kind of music. So nostalgic🥺

[kimmoss]

He and MB20 saved me when I lost my husband...I really wish I could tell them, but I am just one in millions. I'm ok with that

[susansimpson]

LYRICS
If I fall along the way
Pick me up and dust me off
And if I get too tired to make it
Be my breath so I can walk

If I need some other love, then
Give me more than I can stand
And when my smile gets old and faded
Wait around I'll smile again

Shouldn't be so complicated
Just hold me and then
Oh, just hold me again

Can you help me I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
Get put back together
Keep breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me bent

If I couldn't sleep, could you sleep?
Could you paint me better off?
Could you sympathize with my needs?
I know you think I need a lot

I started out clean but I'm jaded
Just phoning it in
Oh, just breaking the skin

Can you help me I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
Get put back together
Keep breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me bent

Start bending me, it's never enough
As I feel all your pieces
Start bending me, keep bending me
Oh, until I'm completely broken in

Shouldn't be so complicated
Just touch me and then
Oh, just touch me again

Can you help me I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
Get put back together
Keep breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me will let them
Without understanding
Here I go there again

Can you help me I'm bent
I'm so scared that I'll never
Get put back together
Yeah, you're breaking me in
And this is how we will end
With you and me bent
