Lyrics:
And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
When sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you'd bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

There’s something so special about this performance… the rain, the song, the crowd just living in the moment. I get goosebumps every time I watch this.

[izfutbal]

The rain just sends it to a next level. Never seen anything like this.

[MangosInTrees]

can't believe this is 20 years old now.. just incredible

[saaroz]

No cellphones no fucking media, just pure art !

[rFarley]

The first girl I was ever serious with heard this song on our first date. "Im going to ruin this song for you because youre only going to think of me when it plays". Hope youre doing well wherever you are Kim

[davesebastiani]

"You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be" one of the greatest lyrics ever written.

[Shamboopy_]

Holy shit I just realized it’s EXACTLY 20 years to the day that I watched this. July 4th 2024. Holy hell. This performance still gives me goose bumps to this day. Happy Independence Day!

[SnulkiZH]

Not a single fucking phone in sight, just pure joy and happiness

[jgfu-wucw]

I was here with my father. He loved goo goo dolls. He died in 2010. I never ever knew this was filmed.. I find this recommended. It brings back such great memories and the memory of him screaming the lyrics. I am now a father myself at 35.. Im absolutely so grateful to have found this because that experience was one of the best in my life!!!!💖💖💖💖💖💖

[justingarfield]

This belongs in the Hall of Fame of greatest live performances of a song ever

[zens]

every once in a while i come back to this song - the rain, the crowd, no phones - this is life

[StoneStephenT]

This wasn't a live performance. This was a religious experience. Nothing is holier than humans singing together.

[kp]

Guitars can be replaced, but moments like this you can never get back. They made the right choice to play. What a show!

[satriahadi]

The fact that they don't care that it's raining cause they wanted to feel and breathe this song it's just epic. The rain is the best effect that made the segment perfect

[prizegotti]

I really appreciate the fact that despite it being 2004, it was still filmed in HD. YouTube didn't even support HD til 2010. Whoever made that decision to use those cameras knew this moment was going to be one of the most beautiful things to ever happen.

[tc_north]

Pouring rain, that’s dedication, and love of the music, and the fans. Anyone remember Prince performing in the rain?

[MrRumBacardi]

you would think this was cut out of a movie. Beautiful, everything about this is perfect

[xavierlopez]

It’s very refreshing to hear someone actually sound like the actual song live

[Firfahksakes]

For all you that don’t know this was in their hometown and they refused to leave the stage…One of the best performances and band of all time ❤❤❤

[connordougherty]

They gave them a concert they would never forget. Hell i wasn’t even there and this is something I’ll never forget!
