Among all the masterpiece by Passenger, this has to be best song written by him.

Michael your songs are perfect. Emotional, 100% real events words, 100% melodies. Love from Malawi, Africa

A man who never stops to amaze me. His infinite capacity of observing and embracing human vulnerability in all of his aspects. I just can't put into words what this man has made me feel since I was 17. He speaks with hope and humbleness, there's never anger in his words. Keep walking the Long Road, Rosenberg, you are a good man.

We've walked the long road and you've worn it well. You stitched yourself up when you fell. Keep your memories in jars, Carry secrets in scars Beneath your shell. You've seen some good days, and some bad ones too. You weave through fashion and trend. You've seen a sun rise on an ocean blue, You've seen it set for the dearest of friends You found faith but you, chose to doubt it. You found love but you, left without it. And now you don't want, to talk about it. You travelled down through foreign lands, Touched mountain tops and golden sand, Seen pyramids and temples made of stone. Keep seashells in a cashmere scarf, A treasured book of photographs In every single one you stand alone. You've seen Vienna and the Berlin wall, As you watched the decades fall The letters that you wrote never made it home. Your birthdays flew past like June, With Christmas days in hotel rooms And new years eve with people you don't know. You built friendships but they, sailed without you. You never meant it and that's why, they doubt you. They don't ever talk about you. You're older than you used to be, The mirror weaves a tapestry Of lines that dance and shimmer 'round your eyes. You stare back at a man, forever holding out his hand As if the answer's going to fall out of the sky. But the penny never dropped, And no man has ever stopped time flying by.

Amazing! This world needed singer and songs writer like him. We need more people with hearts. ❤

The lyrics go together like art... I absolutely adore the whole album, but that song... touches me the most. It describes me, in some way, I hope I don't become like that in the end.

We've walked the long road and you've worn it well You stitched yourself up when you fell Keep your memories in jars Carry secrets in scars Beneath your shell You've seen some good days, and some bad ones too You weave through fashion and trend You've seen a sun rise on an ocean blue You've seen it set for the dearest of friends You found faith but you, chose to doubt it You found love but you, left without it And now you don't want, to talk about it You travelled down through foreign lands Touched mountain tops and golden sand Seen pyramids and temples made of stone Keep seashells in a cashmere scarf A treasured book of photographs In every single one you stand alone You've seen Vienna and the Berlin wall As you watched the decades fall The letters that you wrote never made it home Your birthdays flew past like June With Christmas days in hotel rooms And new years eve with people you don't know You built friendships but they, sailed without you You never meant it and that's why, they doubt you They don't ever talk about you You're older than you used to be The mirror weaves a tapestry Of lines that dance and shimmer 'round your eyes You stare back at a man, forever holding out his hand As if the answer's going to fall out of the sky But the penny never dropped And no man has ever stopped time flying by

As I was driving to Jasper, Alberta from Banff. (4 hour drive) This song played on xm radio and it was the first time I heard it but the lyrics had me captivated. Every line I was able to relate to and has a resemblance with how I capture photos... with purpose. Each line has a purpose and I believe they all eventually lead up to the kind of character this artist has or is singing about. Bravo to this songwriter. Everyone should have a chance to hear this song.

If Passenger is not a Genius of Mind..and Magic and Melody and More.......then I just plain give up ! I am 70 yrs old and have been a Lover of "lovely" music (in the best sense/s) for..ever.... For about two years, now...Passenger has touched this old heart of mine more times than I can nearly imagine. I'm addicted. And uber-happily so ! lol Thankyou Passenger....thankyou thankyou thankyou.... San Cristobal de Las Casas, Mexico !!! Come Visit !!! I've got free guest quarters fer ya !

Hey Dear Passenger, If you ever get to read this comment by any chance, I get all the bliss n joys listening to your music n songs.....your lyrics no less than poetry/ballads. Thank you for coming across in my life through your music. My journey is made easier...... Do know that we share a similar soul. Your lyrics makes me feel that my heart, mind n soul is spoken out. God bless you more n Bless me more with such masterpieces years to come.

"You built friendships but they sailed away without you" This song got me deeply emotional as I reflect on my lives journey around the world. The great people I met along my trip in hostels, hiking, parks, schools, etc that I would never meet again.

Passenger, Birdy, Ed Sheeran: they're all in the same circle and I definitely love diving right into the middle of it and filling my whole world with their beautiful heavenly music.

Everything comes to an End. Life is a long road littered with holes, stones and thorns where you sometimes find a few roses. But do not worry: you will return to nothingness from which some would have wished never go out.

This song makes me cry for some reason. Is like the picture of an old woman reminiscing about her life just before it all ends and realizes she made it through everything.

*Just heard this from "Dear Edward", the strums of the guitar plays the melody that dwells within me*

I always come back to this song. One of my favourites.

In 2021, I'm still tuning into this song every once in a while. One of the absolute best Passenger ever made. My top list of Passenger songs: Life's for the Living The Long Road Holes Sandstorm The Wrong Direction Things That Stop You Dreaming Fairytales and Firesides Survivors All the Little Lights

Listening the entire album! I've had a crazy day at work but this has been the good thing of my day! Thanks Mike :)

Yeah, music is wonderful. Nothing new I could say except that you rock. I wonder if many of your followers see your true beauty. I love him not only for his music, but for his pure existence and personality, someone who writes songs like these, can't be a bad person. i love him, hope that someday i'll get to meet him:)

You're older than you used to be, The mirror weaves a tapestry Of lines that dance and shimmer 'round your eyes.

Driving along the country side with this music with my dog.. The mood is better than high...

I can't make it through this song with dry eyes.

I had to say goodbye to one of my bestfriends today but I know he is in a better place now..this song made it all beter cause its just that good

I’ve never been amazed by song lyrics as I am with passenger’s songs. This piece specially. Simply beautiful with a deep meaning.

Thank you. You just reminded me of a reason to live

passenger 0% nudity %0 sex 100% perfect songs

I fell asleep to another passenger song playing on KZfaq. It cycled through an undetermined number of videos and I slowly woke up in the middle of this song a while later. It was quite a surreal experience waking up to this relaxing song with lyrics about exactly what you are feeling about life.

I love passenger

I lost my parents last week, the song makes me feel better😢

Such a beautiful and lovely song.😇😊... But sadly this type of music does'nt get much attention😢😕...Thank you Mike for this perfect song....😍I would love to hear such more soul touching songs from you....😊...Peace🙏

My favourite lines from this song are "You're older than you used to be, the mirror weaves a tapestry of lines that dance and shimmer 'round your eyes." It's so poetically written. Two years ago when this album was first released I remember how I'd play it on repeat every time I boarded the bus. That chapter has ended and I can't believe it's been two years. Can't wait for the new album this Friday, but at the same time there's that bittersweet feeling of remembering how the past albums (this one in particular) had accompanied me on my bus rides and comforted me through my tough times.

This is absolutely fantastic!

One of the best composers ever,passenger fan for life....

He’s a perfect singer and his songs are very good.

Pure class this tune beautifully written 👏

Whole album is so amzing heartly saying Its mindblowing..man.. :)

This song is perfect

I swear to you bro his song has a magical stuff to it! Everytime I heard this song, the world feels different.

passenger your songs are outstanding no one will dispute this fact, pls keep doing it good, people including me are touched with your message (Gospel)

Passenger is one of few who'll pass the legacy of true art of music to next generation ...u r incredible Passenger

This is truly a very true tale for an awful lot of people. Love to you Mike. ❤ Michele

just beautiful... We've walked the long road and you've worn it well. You stitched yourself up when you fell. Keep your memories in jars, Carry secrets in scars Beneath your shell. You've seen some good days, and some bad ones too. You weave through fashion and trend. You've seen a sun rise on an ocean blue, You've seen it set for the dearest of friends You found faith but you, chose to doubt it. You found love but you, left without it. And now you don't want, to talk about it. You travelled down through foreign lands, Touched mountain tops and golden sand, Seen pyramids and temples made of stone.

You've seen Vienna and the Berlin wall, As you watched the decades fall The letters that you wrote never made it home. Your birthdays flew past like June, With Christmas days in hotel rooms And new years eve with people you don't know. You built friendships but they, sailed without you.

You stare back at a man, forever holding out his hand As if the answer's going to fall out of the sky. But the penny never dropped, And no man has ever stopped time flying by.

You give me goosebumps.

You built friend-ships, but they sailed without you... ;__;

Dear Edward introduced this to me ❤️

Never will want to stop listening to this lovely man's lovely voice...... thank you X Mike Rosenberg for bringing balm to the soul...... 💛

Inmejorable letra! es increible su capacidad para describir historias de vida a la perfección.

This song makes me feel nostalgic... The lyrics are so beautiful!

May God bless you,Mike!We love you from Bulgaria!

This song makes me want to sip some sweet coco beside a cozy, cracking fire while falling snowflakes glisten across the cold landscape.

#Passenger I know you got more friends than you hangout with, but if I ever were in your neighborhood I'd look up to you as a great buddy. You cured my heartache a million times with your beautiful lyrics.
