Sawyer Brown - The Walk (Official Music Video)

[@Buckeye67]

We laid my dad to rest Tuesday afternoon (August 13th, 2024). He was 95. This song has been on my mind a lot over this past year, as he started to decline both physically and mentally. I thought about our "walk" - him sending me off to school the first time, and then my going into the Army (Dad had served in both the Navy 1945-1947 and then the Army 1949-1953). Then the last walk we'd take together, as I helped carry his flag-draped casket. Love you, Dad.

[@brianbrumagen2743]

Sorry for your loss. Be thankful for what you had. My dad was there but he never wanted me and my sister.

[@billiesoldyn5509]

God bless your family!!!🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@OffroadBrewventures]

Sorry for your loss. Sounds like you had a great ol man! Beautiful song about the cycle of life. You are not alone, we all have to go though this, hang in there.

[@RobinMDepp-o2k]

😢 so sorry for your loss❤

[@RobinMDepp-o2k]

I loved my dad he was a marine 1925

[@MichaelWaller-s8y]

My dad just passed away yesterday. One thing I can say about him is he never lied to me no mater how painful. He tried to lead me in the right way but I was stubborn at a young age. Funny how that works. We know it all at 15. But he was right about everything. I miss him terribly

[@lanamcnabb7170]

So sorry for your loss

[@johnrod007]

We were all stupid and stubborn at one point when we were young I wish I would have listened to my dad He was right

[@andrewwittenberg2594]

Buried mine today…..funny how songs affect us and bring us strength!

[@MW-od8vu]

Reminds me of when I had to carry my dad to the car and take him to the hospital. He never came back home. Chokes me up every time. Miss you dad 😢

[@barbarathomas8736]

So sorry

[@lynneschaack]

Yes it's heartbreaking to see what age does to the mind and body. It's hard for me to understand my husband being a strong provider, protector to me hvg to help him up and get him dressed. 😞

[@Joann-ff5qe]

Thanks for expressing. My husband is havi g a comeback after a stroke in march 2023​@lynneschaack

[@BettyHorn]

One of the best songs ever written.

[@jamesterraprice6617]

My Dad entered Hospice care two days ago. I spent last night with him, sitting next to his bed in a chair with my head on his chest. I wanted to find a song to play for him today to let him know what a great Dad he's been, and I found this one. Looking forward to playing it for him later today.

[@gregorytoddsmith9744]

I took that walk with my old man too. Blessings to you.

[@ambudriver1128]

I feel ya. I watched my dad take his last breath in hospice in 2017. At that time there wasn't a more important place to be.

[@stevenrichter658]

Prayers 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼😢😢❤❤

[@DonnaKRidge]

Lost my dad at 15. Just left his side couple hours before he passed! It left a empty place in my heart.

[@starcarm]

This one hits a little too close to home today. I'm sitting in the hospital with my dad, wondering what comes next.

[@scooter2nc]

Enjoy the time and God bless your family. ❤

[@user-se5zz3yj9c]

Soak up every minute…I remember back in 1987being the age of 18 and seeing my Dad and his brothers, sisters, Great Aunts and Uncles, gathering together while my Grampa passed…and it hit me hard…like a reality flash…if I live I will soon be here doing the same thing when my Ole Man hits the end of his chapter….I’m in my 50’s now…the family is spread all over …no bro’s or sister’s, aunts or uncles to support me during this time…He’s close to 90…things are closing…and yes this song hits home…if you can…reach out to all..I pray they are there for you…if not…humbly make the calls, so maybe they reflect on how it used to be, and at least can tell you how Proud they are that at Least Your There…where they should, or hopefully Want to be. God Bless, Chin up, I pray you know in your heart…your right where you should be👊❤️👊

[@heosomeheosome6752]

Prayers for your family. It's just hard. It's been 3 years since I had to leave my dad at the hospital. Just let him know you're there and you love him. That's all you can do.

[@teresariley5070]

My dad is 86 and has Dementia. One day at a time. Prayers to you ❤

[@user-se5zz3yj9c]

@@teresariley5070 prayers to you…im 54…looking at what I can only hope isn’t my future…and that’s hard to say…when I look at the man I’ve strived so many years to be worthy of…I hear You….Stay Strong, Learn , Feel and be there…your winning in reality..a true view…and it isn’t easy.l❤️👊❤️

[@cowboyjay56]

My father died last Monday. This was the only song that I pushed hard for. It says everything about a father and son's relationship.

[@brittanymcgregor6710]

😢 so sorry about your dad

[@cowboyjay56]

@brittanymcgregor6710 Thank you Brittany. I do appreciate that.

[@donedoneit1355]

I took my 90 year old Dad to a funeral for one of his close friends...at the end of the service we walked together back to the car...as we walked across the cemetery lawn, he reached out and took my hand to help him get back to the car safely...at that moment, I realized he and I just completed the full circle...60 years ago, it was me taking his hand as a child to be sure I got back to the car safely...this song really hits home now that he's gone.

[@alow99]

I understand, gut wrenching 😢

My dad is 91 and in failing health. This song brings so many tears.

[@davethemagnificent2576]

Cherish him. My dad left when I was but luckily my grandpal filled his shoes as a role model. I lost him in 2019 at the age 90 but he looked and acted like he was 50. Nothing could take him except Cancer in 3 months time. 😭😭

[@jeffallen2858]

Dad passed when i was 20. Just turned 30. Wish he was here to see what I've accomplished and more im working towards.

[@mollydenton671]

He knows ❤

[@mindyh7630]

I assure you, he knows and he's proud!! ❤❤❤ Just remember, we all make mistakes. Just learn from them and keep going.... I lost my dad at 30. I'm 38 now,...No matter what age we are, we always miss them and pray we're making them proud.

[@RT-wq8bd]

He sees you! Know you were blessed with him. Many of us never had that blessing. Stay strong!

[@gh05t_mv]

Mine passed when I was 15. I turn 44 this month. Every day, I wish I could walk one more walk with him.

[@jeffallen2858]

@@gh05t_mv I know how you feel

[@kaylahenderson8169]

My granddad raised me and my brother and sister. I remember him talking me into going to school the first day and I was scared and I remember getting married and I was scared sipping on my own but he was there. He died a year ago today. He taught me so much in his time, he died 98. And being 38 now I can’t imagine not having them all my life. He was my hero, the man of my life and I’ll never forget him for that.

[@KevinBlankenship-p6m]

32 years ago, I took that walk with my Dad-the tears flow when I hear this wondrous song of life. When you are young you really have little to no clue what a wish really is!!

[@lynneschaack]

So very true.

[@ClintBlack-oq4vb]

It seems that my grandparents were the only ones who had unconditional love for me. MY grandfather walked me and the neighbor kid to the school bus where the three of us waited every day, rain or shine. ~ 1342

[@shannonl.jewell386]

Im sorry for everyone who has lost someone close to them. They are your guardian angels. Just like my mom and dad are.

[@TravisBuseman]

Rip dad i miss ya. Today in 2019 my dad passed away. Had a few beers for ya last night

[@duaneleerussell157]

I'm having one for my Dad right now, here's to your Dad, maybe their tipping one for us too! Peace ✌️.

[@jamiegolden6776]

This song reminds me of my grandfather talking about being at pearl harbor He used to show us pictures of his buddies and tell us how he was engaged to grandmother while he was there I LOVE THIS SONG

[@walkerwinchesterangel89]

My dad died when I was a baby after he lost my momma. My godfather step into his shoes. He has been there for me at the milestones in my life. I love my dad and my godfather had his own family but his the closest thing I had. An if I loss him I'll be heart broken.

[@cindyh8017]

I miss the times fishing with my Dad. I love hearing this song!❤😂❤😂

We all will take this walk one day...

[@nathanhuber6261]

Lost my dad 3 years ago in January he was 59 and I'm 33 I feel like he's singing this song just found it 2 days ago and will play it forever along with Chris Stapleton daddy don't pray anymore

[@siuhhharnett1790]

Sawyer brown was freaking awesome!! ✊

[@efuturatechnologies262]

When I was 4 my parents split up and my mom and I moved in with my Grandparents. My Grandfather did not miss a beat helping raise me. He taught me everything from wood work making Christmas presents to my interest in tech and how to be the best version of me to always give and show manners in all situations. Unfortunately during this time though he was going through liver failure. I remember this song being played so many times in his truck. He passed away during my high school years. I try to honor him everyday by actions. Anytime I play this song I feel like he's right there. Thank you for this song 🙂

[@jamesstough5695]

I remember time spent with my dad. I give everything I have to go back, just one more day to spend time with him.

[@redbeachone]

My mom has been my mom and dad for the last 55 years after my dad died when I was 12 years old. I just recently took that walk with her to the assisted living facility when her dementia got so bad that I needed help taking care of her. Hardest walk this old Marine ever had to take.

41 year old man, crying like baby. This beautiful thing we call life. The saddest part of it all is there’s just never enough time to do it the way we both wish it we could’ve. All I can do is try to make it go as slow as possible with my son. I love you, dad. There’s never been a man that holds, even a close second to you. Never will be either.

[@stufrankie8332]

Losing my father yesterday to cancer , now this song hits harder than it ever did before. 😮‍💨

[@TJJulkowski]

One of the most raw, poignant, and haunting songs of the era. Still one of my favorites today.

[@bondalero0074]

God, When they are gone this song kills me now. Never understanding the lyrics when he was alive and we were young. I would give ALL the money in the world to have one more day with Dad/Mom!#(R.I.P.)#Daddy#Mama#😢

This song still makes me cry, my Dad was a great person. We buried him before having to take the walk. He went fast but it still hurts 5 yrs later

Songs like this are good for emotional out burst especially if your a man and need to cry for whatever reason

[@thomasmeyers2565]

I agree

[@mindyh7630]

Even men need to cry it out. So I agree with you completely. We all need the emotionsl release. Men dont have to be strong all of the time... I wish they could all realize that. ❤

I was thinking about this song this morning getting ready for work. Every time I think about the song I get teary-eyed. And I'm 72 years old now.

My grandfather was the most influential persons in my life. Proud to know him little lone be related. This song is so beautiful and has carried me many a night! God bless!

It gets a little easier every year. But once I come upon Leader of the Band I end up here. Simply paying homage to thf man who made me who I am. He has been gone almost 10 years now, but still feel the loss every day. We never truly appreciate them until they are gone. RIP Pop.

That’s a bit different twist in the video than the way I saw the original song in my mind but I like it! My dad has been able to not only see his kids and grandkids grow grandkids but now his great grandkids growing up and it is a true blessing! He imparts untold wisdom that they will always remember for them and me! One of my favorite songs of all time. Thank you guys for releasing this.

[@candacemotes332]

This song hits different when you've lost your daddy. Lost my daddy August 11, 2013 and i miss him every single day. He was only 58 and i was 29. I got pregnant with his first grandchild four months after he passed and it hurts to this day that he never got to meet his granddaughter. He would have loved her. 😢😢 She was born that next year in August the same month he passed. August is always bittersweet because its my girls birthday month and the month he passed. I had one of the best Daddy's a girl could ask for.

[@ppetree]

There are good and bad meanings to this song. The good meanings are the ones shown in the video. The bad meanings are when someone is estranged from their father and then decades later his own children are estranged from him. "I took this walk you're walking now, boy I've been in your shoes." I see it playing out one generation after the next.

[@rogerswinson685]

A great song and video ♥️
