![]() Grace (1994) [ larger cover art ] |
This is our last goodbye
I hate to feel the love between us die
But it's over
Just hear this and then I'll go
You gave me more to live for
More than you'll ever know
This is our last embrace
Must I dream and always see your face
Why can't we overcome this wall
Baby, maybe it is just because I didn't know you at all
Kiss me
Please kiss me
But kiss me out of desire, babe
And not consolation
You know it makes me so angry
'Cause I know that in time
I'll only make you cry
This is our last goodbye
Did you say "No, this can't happen to me"
And did you rush to your phone to call?
Was there a voice unkind in the back of your mind saying
"Maybe... you didn't know him at all"
You didn't know him at all
You didn't know
The bells out in the church tower chime
Burning clues into this heart of mine
Thinking so hard on her soft eyes and the memory
Offer signs that it's over
It's over

| DrMacDaddy | Posted: Feb 12, 2013 - 14:48 What can be said about Jeff that hasn't been said a hundred times already. Did heaven have to take him so early since he sang like an angel? |
| metod (Canada) | Posted: Feb 12, 2013 - 12:01 This voice and music is coming straight from heaven :) |
| Dave_Mack (Ball of Confusion) | Posted: Jan 18, 2013 - 16:39 Fantastic and sad. |
| ziakut (Slightly North of Obvlivion) | Posted: Jan 05, 2013 - 09:36 One fine Jeff Buckley tune. Too bad there won't be any more! ![]() |

I can't say enough how much I love the "tear" in his voice, the sadness & depth of feeling, not to mention the albums use of nuance, which is lost on a lot of more modern music. (Can't stand compression!) My fave track is probably "Lover, You Should Have Come Over," but the whole album is a classic to me. (Even if I still kind of prefer Nina Simone's version of Lilac Wine :P) The what on MTV? MTV played videos? That's crazy talk. |

| chelsiaann | Posted: Apr 03, 2012 - 08:47 Yeah, that's one hell of a transition. Emotional overload combined with a great sunny day. Everything is coming together. GuiltyFeat wrote: Big Country in to this? That makes me happy. |

I think this is the same for most people. after all, he left us not long after recording his first album. however the albums quality hits you right between the eyes. |
| lily34 (lexvegas) | Posted: Mar 09, 2012 - 08:41 love this. |
| shakylegs (Montreal) | Posted: Mar 09, 2012 - 08:30 This song is not played enough. |
| Grammarcop (Upriver from Zug Island) | Posted: Mar 06, 2012 - 04:44 At one point in this song, I think Buckley sounds just like Burton Cummings. |
| neuticle (fog fog fog) | Posted: Mar 02, 2012 - 16:19 Oh my god..RP is playing a different Jeff B song ! Refreshing to hear other tunes than Hallelujah !! THANKS BILL |
| Smokinmaxwell | Posted: Feb 24, 2012 - 20:32 Is there really a mute list so as not to have to listen to Jeff Buckley?? |
| Smokinmaxwell | Posted: Feb 24, 2012 - 20:23 cacophony — sounds bad |
| Smokinmaxwell | Posted: Feb 24, 2012 - 20:19 Sorry— this is cocophany. |
| coccyx | Posted: Feb 06, 2012 - 15:33 Sad song, lyrics-wise. But the music is so chugga-chugga upbeat and springy. Doesn't match. The emotion in the lyrics is not expressed in any way by the musical style. Strange. And I don't like it. |
| cc_rider (Austin Texas. Y'all.) | Posted: Feb 03, 2012 - 12:21 Crushing. Every. Time. |
| gemtag (Texas) | Posted: Nov 03, 2011 - 10:50 Great song. Hope you're rockin where ever you are Jeff. |

| gjones | Posted: Jun 27, 2011 - 10:27 I have great admiration for your voice and your tallent. The first time I heard your voice I sat up and took notice and pursued. But you were already gone. Wish you were still here. |

| robco1 (Chicago, IL) | Posted: Apr 14, 2011 - 19:47 This song is still amazingly powerful. One of the most influential musicians of recent memory, taken from us far too soon. And his mom is a really nice lady. |
| Dave_Mack (Surfing the Breakers) | Posted: Mar 24, 2011 - 15:54 Great stuff. Really enjoy the instrumentation in Buckley's music, especially the bass. |

| lemmoth (NYC) | Posted: Mar 14, 2011 - 08:43 Cool tune. Great vocals. Sorely missed. |
| roulleau | Posted: Nov 18, 2010 - 19:48 Zigi wrote: I find it hard to find any similarities between the two, just the fact that Matthew always sings with thick distortion over his voice tells me he is not comparable to Jeff Buckley. I have to agree with Zigi. In the immortal words of Dogberry in Much Ado About Nothing, "Comparisons are odorous." |
