Keith Urban changes lyrics during his stage performance

Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman’s separation came as a surprise to many. After 19 years together, the split shocked fans. During his stage performance, Urban appeared to express some of his emotions through his music while performing his fan-favorite breakup song 'You’ll Think of Me.'

“Take your memories, I don’t need ’em / Take your space and take your reasons / But you’ll think of me,” are the original lyrics of the track.
