In Memoriam
Lyrics:
I'm leaving here on the morning train
And I will never see this world again
I've felt pleasure
And I have felt pain
And I know now
That I can never be the same
How I wonder why the world can be so cold
And if only good die young
Then left with me cruel here to grow old
And I felt pleasure
And I felt pain
And I know now
I can never be the same
And if someday I find my peace of mind
I will share my wealth with all of human kind
I've felt pleasure
And I have felt pain
And I know now
That I can never be the same
So if the sun does shine or rain does fall
I give thanks I've had my sight to see through it all
And I've felt pleasure
And I've felt pain
And I know now
That I can never be the same

Name another artist who just gets so much better with time. Amazing really.

[@CoffeecupCV]

Every single note, every single breath, warms my soul and brings me back to a time in my life when I had love and joy and danced to your tunes in solitude, with amazement and wonder in my soul. Thank you for being you.

The first time I heard this song I was 19 and it became the soundtrack of my life instantly. I don't remember who I was back then but one thing I can remember is how this song made me feel and that's exactly how I feel right now after watching this. Still one of my all time favorites

[@andywaston]

Thankyou Ben.

[@bobbygrey5859]

So Awesome thank you Ben you are simply Amazing. I remember when I couldn't get tickets to your show at the Royal Oak theater in Michigan. I was hoping to scalp one but no luck. I will say I stood outside and listened with amazement wishing I were inside. But brother you did a great show from what I heard outside by the sidedoor. Bravo Bravo Ben Harper 🙏🏽👍🏽

[@carolalune]

Hello les gens j espère que vous allez bien!? Ben est pour moi le meilleur artiste de notre génération, il n est même pas assez reconnu pour son talent ni pour ses messages qui sont rempli d amour ,d espoir de paix .. Ben vient me revoir en Suisse s il te plaît. Le festi neuch qui se passe en face du lac où je t ai vu avec ton groupe Innoncent Criminals t attends ou àu Staduim de Zurich !! Te voir sur scène est transcendant, tu envoies une énergie si riche en émotion que les mots me manques pour les décrire. Merci pour ce que tu m apportes .

[@slimefaitmaisonevalinda2980]

Je l’ai vu en concert il y a 22 ans mon Dieu ah non c’etait Lui le Dieu ce soir là 😂🤩

I can love me again..I sang that to myself after this song.

[@OGustus]

[@lionbear7078]

Yo Ben. You're the reason I started playing guitar. Seen you play 3 times in Perth AU and once in Hammersmith London, the acoustic set you did there 2014. Chances of you hitting up the skatepark in Perth next year when you tour? And perhaps (Would be a dream for me) to sign my Charlie Musselwhite collab board

[@beckywood3]

Thank you 💙

[@sophieplusquellec9980]

Merci 😃
