"Iris" Lyrics:

And I'd give up forever to touch you
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
And I don't want to go home right now

And all I can taste is this moment
And all I can breathe is your life
When sooner or later it's over
I just don't want to miss you tonight

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming
Or the moment of truth in your lies
When everything feels like the movies
Yeah, you'd bleed just to know you're alive

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am
I just want you to know who I am

  • This song was a song i sang to my son as a baby. He died when he was three. I just wanted him to know who i am. I miss you Elijah Raven. 97-00

    This may be the best song ever made. No joke I've never felt this way from a song before.
  • @ciaranocraobhach
    Forget the chords. Forget the gear. Forget the technique. THIS is what being an artist is all about. Reaching the hearts of literally millions. Songs aren't written - they exist in a place beyond time and space, and we are just vehicles to deliver them.

    The rain. The lyrics. The Hair. The Shirt. The Crowd. Just PERFECTION
  • @djgilmar93
    the rain is so epic..it gives additional emotion to the song....
  • Tears are flowing down my face. My daughter, and myself loved this song. I remember this from the movie “City of Angels”. My daughter died in 2011, at the age of 28. She was our only child……I miss you. RIP Lexi

    No phones, just hands up in the air. Just the good old days. Very nostalgic. I miss the early 2000's where everything feels so normal. Not a lot of stress
  • @jennyrae1
    As long as the world exist this song will never die...From eternity & beyond
  • @LuckyDuckie115
    I was there, one of most memorable moments of my life. Wifey (GF at that time) and I will always cherish it. Surreal experience...never bothered to look for this video until now
  • @jonnywalker5361
    Not a stupid smart phone in sight. Just people enjoying the moment. Something young people will never know now.
  • @sumdy2518
    " You don't have any idea how much we love you" !! That separates him from the rest, no wonder he's still my favorite, I started singing this song the year 1998, and now it's already 2024, and I'm 47 years old☺. Love you Goo Goo Dolls, John Rzeznik, and his entire band.❤💝💕❣
  • @blackjack4939
    I can only imagine what it takes to create a song that lasts forever
  • @matthiasl3807
    From countless songs written on this planet… this must be one of the most beautiful.
  • “Turn on my guitar” with pouring rain and that crowd, everything is epic, just love it! This guys know how to take this song to the next level!
  • @johnsmithee6660
    It wasn't rain...it was God crying at how beautiful the song is
  • @ardymendoza3726
    This is the type of concert/performance that needs full attention. No cellphones, no cameras, nothing. Just your eyes to admire the view, ears to listen for pleasure and hands up in the air. Gosh, I miss them ☹
  • @gretchen4708
    I was 12 years old when I fell in love with this song and this band…I’m 38 now.. still feel the same emotions, every single time I hear it 🥹
