Dave Matthews Band – I Won't Give It Away Lyrics 18 years ago
I can't say whether or not he's getting divorced but I hope not : (

I don't think the song is about that though- it seems as if he's warning someone he loves and wants to get into a relationship with that he has a lot of baggage and problems. What he is giving away is his heart and soul to his love which is hard for him to do. He has rejected giving his souls to religion and so feels that he must seek refuge in his love for her.

That's just my interpretation though ;)

Dave Matthews Band – Looking at You Lyrics 18 years ago
This song is absolutely gorgeous. It was played during one of the Dave and Tim tours and there are more lyrics a dmbalmanac.com if you're interested.

This song seems to be about a deep and devoted love for someone. The music is almost as pretty as the words :)

Go ahead and comment as well!

Dave Matthews – Baby Lyrics 18 years ago
Like Butterfly, this song sounds like a lullaby and is 1 of my faves from Some Devil also. Dave puts such emotion into his songs but this 1 is particularly beautiful.

Dave Matthews Band – #34 Lyrics 18 years ago
The words remind me of someone who is falling apart emotionally. It makes me think of when you get so tired and stressed that you can't move and all you want to do is cry. The music is absolutely gorgeous and it makes you think, not about anything in particular, but just think.

Beautiful song! Check out dmbalmanac for other words as well!

Dave Matthews Band – Everyday Lyrics 18 years ago
ok, this song definitely gets you singing along! C'mon! Admit it! lol This is the song that made me find out about the band as well and they changed the way I look at the world so I can't hate it haha. If it weren't for a more radio-friendly song then many people would never know about the band and just b/c a song is radio-friendly doesn't make it bad. Dave is unbelieveable with lyrics and this song is awesome live.

Dave Matthews Band – Butterfly Lyrics 18 years ago
This song was written for his daughters. It is such a lovely song and it always brings tears to my eyes. The best songs are those that make you feel.

It's basically a lullaby of comfort- perfect for when your soul feels tired.

Dave Matthews Band – Steady As We Go Lyrics 18 years ago
This song makes me cry every time I hear it. It;s the way that he says that he will help her through everything and make her burdens lighter that gets to me more than anything.

So if your heart rings dry my love,
I will fill your cup.
And if your load gets heavy girl,
I will lift you up.

Gourgeous song- best 1 on the album by far.

Dave Matthews Band – Grey Street (Busted Stuff version) Lyrics 18 years ago
Hi Everyone!

Wow, finally a place to say how much DMB means to me. Here goes:

I am a huge fan of DMB and it is mainly because of this song. There are so many beautiful versions of it and the lyrics to them all are so amazing. When I first heard this song I was alone at my computer and I decided to dance and then the second time I heard it I listened to the words and I cried because it explained how I was feeling at the time - tired of life and like everything had gotten so dull and lifeless. I wasn't suicidal but I was completely depressed. This song and DMB in general has changed my entire outlook on life. There is something amazingly haunting and beautiful about their music that makes you want to dance, feel happy and free and be yourself.

My favourite part of the song is this:

"there's a stranger speaks outside her door
says take what you can from your dreams
make them as real as anything
it's take the work out of courage
but she says, "please
there's a crazy man that's creeping outside my door
I live on the corner of Grey Street and the end of the world."

What's absolutely incredible about this song is it can make you want to dance and yet cry your heart out at the same time. Nobody but a legnd like Dave could do that.

Celebrate we will,
~ Grey ~
