I don't think he's thought about how much this will hurt his girls and the fact that they will pay for his mistake for the rest of their lives, always doubting themselves and finding it difficult to trust men who want to have relationships with them. Incredibly sweet | Reviewer: Shawn | 5/27/07 It's such a sweet song that's so deferential to women that I can't even imagine anyone reading it as sexist. Mayer's empathy for the plight of so many women (not sympathy, mind you), including nearly every one I've known, is touching. This is a heartrending yet beautiful song as I've ever heard. Mayer belongs in a class with McCartney, James Taylor, Sting and Billy Joel when it comes to writing about the fragility of the human psyche as it pertains to love. just beautiful | Reviewer: kiwiming | 5/21/07 I love this song. The melody is so gentle and the lyrics are just beautiful! In fact they have inspired the title of my new blog: Daughters, Lovers, Mothers. 05-01-07 | Reviewer: ***kATiE*** | 5/1/07 this is such a great song. it just speaks to your heart and nothing can be sweeter than hearing those words from a guy to a girl. i absolutely and positively can not think of a better song. thanks, katie Ignorance is Bliss | Reviewer: Kali | 4/22/07 To the people with the negative reviews, i don't blame you i actually envy you a bit. To the others who criticise these people don't. They are simply ignorant,they are unaware. The first time i heard this song i can say that i blacked out for a bit. One moment the first guitar strains were coming through my headphones then the next thing i knew i was opening my eyes and praying against all odds that the tears would finally fall. If you have never been in any sort of situation like what the song describes then you won't understand. I won't begin any attenpts to explain...cause you'll never get it. I would however plead with the men and women in this world to be careful of there actions because at 23 i can still remember the day that i was made emotionally retarded. I fondest wish is that this song gets thousands of bad reviews...cause the people who give those bad reviews don't know what its like to be in "the same skin you were standing in Since the day you saw him walking away" or " to be a maze Where all of the walls all continually change". But the worst of all is to hurt someone you wish you could love or love someone in the only way you know how....and have it not be enough, which makes them in turn feel like"they've done all they can To stand on her steps with their heart in their hand, Now I'm starting to see Maybe it’s got nothing to do with me" So to my ignorant folk....be thankful yet don't be obnoxious because there is sadly those out there who aren't ignorant, those who know exactly what Mayer meant. And to those who don't fall in either category...well just appreaciate the song its got a nice melody and the lovingly smoky chords of the singer. So true | Reviewer: patty3_2006@yahoo.com | 4/15/07 I agree with "I feel everything this songs says" and with "A real tearjerker" Especially the part in the song about being in the same skin she's always been.. I too saw a picture of me as a young child, helpless and hurt..both of my parents too busy wrapped in living thier lives, trying to achieve their own persnal goals in life and arguinth with each other... they forgot about me. They never spoke to me only when they neeeed to take their anger out on me or order me to do house chores. I was alone all of my life living in the same home as my parents but never really having parents to love and support me. The part where it says daughters they love like you do.. is so true..I'm so afraid of losing the person I am with I often destruct the relationship. i have such trouble trusting people. I am still that little girl wanting and needing that love I never got and this song was very therapeutic and validating for me and how I grew up. Thank you John Mayor. So personal | Reviewer: Sunny | 4/8/07 i fully agree with "heart of the issue". my father never left. he wasn't there emotionally. we never had a good relationship(it was ok before i was six). In fact i don't have a good relationship with either of my parents. Now with the current situation, this song sends shivers up and down my spine. I have to go see my father in the hospital today(i don't think he's ever coming back) and i don't even know how to tell him that i love him. i'm crying even as i say this. i don't think he's gonna last very long. Damn... | Reviewer: Colin | 3/16/07 WoW! That's what I was thinking when I first heard this song. I was in the car with my girl, and she looked lost in thought. I know she didn't have a great dad as a rolemodel, and didn't get much love, so that's part of the reason I loved the song and my heart really went out to her then. I want to be the love she never had, but it can be confusing sometimes, trying to figure out how to get through her psyche... She also a psych major, so I've got my work cut out for me! :) Fun times ahead, lol. hey!! | Reviewer: jessica | 2/23/07 hey i really love this song it touches my heart and it reminds me of my life thankyoufor writing it!!!!!♥ john mayer | Reviewer: karmen | 2/15/07 awe , this guy is such a cutie this song is amazing keep it up baby !
