Song hit home today as he picked his things up and left. He made a promise to our children that he'd always be here for them and never leave them. Him walking out on them hurts my heart more than him walking out on me. No kiss or hug goodbye, no daddy loves you, no nothing. I hope I can pick all of our pieces back up and keep things together for our children. I've been through heartaches before.
Been through this. You stay strong for those little ones. It will never be easy to fill both roles, but you got this. Dont ever give up on yourself. Your stronger than you think you are, you got this.
This song has helped me thru some of the hardest days of my life, when i wanted to end it all. Screamed this song instead. Cried. Let the tears pour, let the pain escape thru every word I screamed. This song still brings me to tears! What happened to this kind of music? This whole album I could relate to, a lot of music these days are just too much. Nothing like these songs.
Listening to this song breaks my heart because when one enters a relationship they see no end so they promise things that they believe they can keep but there judgment is clouded by there happiness and in the long run you realize you promised something that you can’t keep and that is the real hurt
I love this Brantley Gilbert. Also many people don’t even know about his songs like this. Which is crazy they are missing out. Still listen to it all the time. He’s amazing.
We will all be broken. Broke. Fight. Stronger. Hopefully in the end we will all be smiling and be all beautifully broken and with you just didn't fit with us they will fit with one of us later. The truth is they're all with us and they thought you were heaven and hell to do it . look up
You know why? Because we were worth it. And Bobby kept his promise to me. And Grandpa Hank just wanted to scare us and Grandpa Jerry will always watching over his grandkids making sure we're doing it right. But what is right? I guess time will tell
His songs have helped me through the most hurtful and painful days and nights anyone should never have to live through. Thank you and God I am making it one day at a time now.

Koadanator dying a horrible death is way worse. It happens to 90% of us and never talked about. Why? Bcse the victim’s are dead to never speak of their horrible experience. Families are muted!
Honestly I feel this way all the time I have for the past for 3 years and he cheated on me I have tried to get over him but every time I close my eyes I think of him I dream of him he is all I think about he gave me a promise ring and said I promise you will be my last gf my last kiss my last love and 2 days later I found out he was cheating I still have that ring and it still stays on my ring finger
First time in almost 7 years I can listen to this song and not cry. For the first time in a long time I dont feel the heart break or the way my soul felt like it was ripped through my chest. I almost lost my life completely to drugs and alcohol because of what happened 7 years ago and now I can proudly say I'm sober and I'm moving on with my life. I hope and pray she is happy and gets what she wants in life.
We have stayed away from each other for so long ... But its a good thing..... I am still trying to.make the world a better place .. For our kids. To one day live the American dream agian.... In a free country .. That. Has been my life's mission ... Brantley.... If I died would my ... Our kids be safe .. Or they gonna be slaves.... With dreams they will never see come true... Cause they will never be allowed to make money or know what its like to be loved bye someone... Cause they are slaves used to make money ... For someone elses family who do care if they live or die.... Either way they get paid... That life aint right .... I have to live that way every day. Alone with no one
The think I learned after my last relationship was not giving to much. People always leave. And when they do they take a piece of your heart away. Until you are left empty. Time will help me heal and forget.
Michael l i guess bad experiences in relationships made me understand that I have to protect myself. And I'm sure that's what many people are doing too. No wonder why our generation has so many people "single". Nobody wants to commit or go on a long walk in a relationship. They're all shallow, fake, want everything fast and easy (without making any efforts) lacking communication skills, just sex or one night stands. Yes. I'd rather stay single under this circumstances. To end in a positive note "there's someone for everyone". You never know when you will find your half. Take care! 🙂

Brantley I can't wait to see you in St.louis my home state of Missouri your going to rock the stadium with Nickelback I'm going to be so excited already am and it's going to be one hell of night love love love you .
I love this because I married my high school sweetheart and was so happy and the day before Christmas Eve he said he didn't want me and the 2 boys anymore and then drove us from Panama city Florida to a gas station in Alabama and Left us there I was a firefighter and EMT and in January 2016 was burned 80% 3rd and 4th degree and am getting ready to go through my 33rd surgery. my son has been here for me through cancer and me getting badly burned so I am blessed but this song got to me 😢😢❤❤❤❤
"No matter what you do I'll always love you. Well I have to, because I promised." That part breaks me more than the rest of the song. We promised forever and I can already feel the end coming.
It didn't have to be the end when u left and took our babies to let him beat them and u talked about me and the way u did me k u should be ashamed of yourself not for doing what u did to our family but the fact that you never stopped ur still destroying our family

This song hits me really hard right now. Going to through a breakup after 12 years sucks so bad. Especially when you're not the one who wants it and don't understand why it's happening. 😥
Hang in there. It's so hard. I'm sorry this is happening to you. I understand. I am in the same situation with my husband of 22 years. I hope for you it gets better with time.
I completely understand this ... Started dating in 2011 got married in 2017 3 kids been the so much and now he wants to walk away... And it's killing me so much I'm so deeply in love with him still...
I understand the pain. I was first married in Oct of 1985 to an amazing woman. After 6 months of marriage she came to me and said "I don't think we should be married any longer". I was crushed. No explanation. My mind was all over wondering what happened. I thought maybe she found someone else as guys were always hitting on her. 23 years later in 2009, we were talking again. I asked her straight out as to why we got divorced. She saw a coworker flirt with me and assumed that I had taken advantage of it. My heart sunk. I had never cheated on her nor would I ever have. I had to live without her all those years because of an assumption. In 2021 we were talking again and thinking of seeing each other. Just after Thanksgiving she contracted Covid and also developed pneumonia. She was put into an induced coma. Dec 19th she passed, never waking from the coma. My heart is forever broken. I talk to her while driving and suddenly our song starts playing. Kinda freaky. Now I just have to wait to see her again. I'm only 57 so it might be a while ! Hang in there !
@@rakitakhan I'm so damn sorry. I know that doesnt help but that's pure heartbreak in your story and I wish I had stronger words for you right now. The day you walk through and see her face though❤ such a beautiful love that not many experience
@@rakitakhan your story broke my heart. I have suffered some bad heartbreaking situations myself. My daughter's father committed suicide by Jumping 29 floors while on the phone with me begging him as our daughter was listening to the entire call. She was 12 years old. Then my first marriage ended after 21 years. He left me for a married woman who had 3 young children and then she left him a year later for another married man. I was completely devastated as I knew him since we were 9 years old!! I never imagined that he would do such a thing to me as his father left his mother for another married woman and he saw the pain that his mother suffered which she never got over. She died hating him and my ex-husband swore he would never do that to me. We didn't have the best marriage to be honest because he did so many things to hurt me but I loved him deeply!! It's been 15 years and I still feel very sad about it. I am now remarried for the last 11 years to the most incredible man that far exceeded anything I could have wanted in a husband. He treats me with so much love and respect. I know the pain you are going through but I promise you that if you open your heart to love again you will find a woman who will mend your heart and hold you when you are feeling heartache for the one you lost. You are deserving of love and she would want you to be happy ❤️
Amazing voice and awesomely written. These tears fell when I heard this song. Lot's can relate how painful a heart break can be. Glad my heart finally healed
my husband left me after 13 yrs... i sent him this song the other day and it made him cry. to bad he didn't think about those feelings before he got the babysitter pregnant
He's been gone a little over 4 months and I realized how much I really loved him after he was gone. You can't take back the words you say or the things you may or may not do. Live today like it's your last with the person you love. At least I know that he's in Heaven with the Lord and now knows my love for him. This song brings back my memories through my tears.
I love this song me & my wife been going through it for four years now & it is all because of me & what I have done & I play this song to her all the time love your music bro keep it up Brantley Gilbert
Relationships are hard. They are filled with joy, sorrow, reconciliation, regret, pain, love and everything in between. But that’s how they are supposed to be. It’s only through the struggle that we become stronger, and if more people would struggle TOGETHER instead of against each other, then more marriages would succeed and peoples’ promises would mean something. If you truly mean “till death do you part” when you get married, then no matter what happens, the couple will pour everything they have into their marriage. It’s not a 50% you and 50% me kind of deal. It’s 100% from both people 100% of the time. Don’t give up on each other. Cling to Jesus Christ in all that you do, and you will make it through anything that people or the Devil try to tear you apart.

I lost the love of my life She passed away earlier this month I have never ever been so lost I got the call and hit my knees I still have nothing to explain how bad it hurts worse everyday I miss you Jamie King RIP my Angel
there is nothing you can do to numb the pain. just remember she is in a better place and always cherish those memories. I know whats it's like losing someone you love. but always remember those memories with her. you will pull through and you'll see her again. she is never truly gone. she still lives on in your heart never forget that. she is always with you no matter where you are. I'm really sorry for your loss
James Nemeth That truly means the world Everyone that says that it gets easier No it doesn't True love lost and knowing that no matter how many women you search through Couldn't touch what we had and still have This may sound crazy but she calms me as if she was still here I never was in this house with her and I've washed all my clothes and hers are at her best friends in Florida and every now and then when I'm having a hard day I smell her perfume and its not because I want to or memory Trust me I have tried Its her She is in my heart but I will sit and talk to her and God and I promise she does it And when I catch myself thinking DS stupidly Its instant that something snaps me out When she was here She would sometimes hit me in the back of my noggin and sometimes she was playing but she always kept my chin up and a smile on my face But to know I'm not gonna find a woman that was brutal with honesty yet such a free spirit I wish y'all would have met her Everyone that she was ever around was touched in someway and I haven't seen a easy day IBut I find this at hard points and it helps so the world needs more of y'all Truly thank you Angi Hill this is for you also I pray for you and your family Its hard and that date is my birthday so I will always remember u Prayers for all Thank u❤
Always...Always, say what you've got to say today. Because we are not promised a tommorow! I'm sorry for your loss. Just make sure to let the tears out. Let em roll down your heart and hit the floor. It's the only way to get through that kinda pain. So when you find yourself going through Hell...keep going. Don't stop to look around or smell the roses! Roses die too ya know.
Yeah I can't sleep. All these songs are beautiful and so heartbreaking. But it's just realization. It's just me waking up and I'm honestly Speechless! I can't even cry right now.
Beautiful song 💕 I can definitely relate. I was in a 6 year relationship that ended in Dec of 2017. It wasn't easy but , I'm doing just fine. Even though she promised ...
This song still makes me cry, more recently I played it for my current ex, my most recent and it kills me. It's been a week ago today, and I've struggled so bad this week rolling through those emotions.
You promised......but if wasnt for broken promises some of us wouldnt be in the best place we could be in our lives today....no ill feelings wishing nothing but the best❤✌
David McAlister It really is hard man You know how it feels and my wound is fresh and not saying that years make it any easier But I thought it might but I'm fine with my love being in heaven and she will always be with me until I get home Im sorry for the loss
This man is so passionate - his lyrics and voice! Such a touching and sincere song.... "Take it easy baby, I'm still broken - Memories enough to tear me wide open." WOW that's some powerful stuff! Sure wish I could purchase it on iTunes. ...and by the way, im pretty sure the beginning of the song says "...wearing that cotton dress and my ring" (NOT "in my way")
my heart and soul are gone and all that's left is the pain. the day you said you couldn't do it anymore was the day my heart shattered into a billion pieces. the tears killed me the most. IM SO SORRY
Ehh from someone who’s been a huge Brantley fan since Modern Day Prodigal Son came out in 09 and has seen him play in the tiniest of bars …. his new stuff kinda sucks to be honest. Give me anything from Just As I Am and before. Even a few after that were ok. But his first 2 albums are unbeatable. I wish he’d go back to the stuff from Modern Day album
my dad Rodney Watts died in prison alone 2 1/2 months ago ... during our last conversation 3 days before I promised him I would be strong no matter what life threw at me(he knew)...well it broke me bad...this song woke me up from being passed out blaring at 2:22 am this morning on radio..."I Promise" Daddy I'm trying hard but I just want to be with you... and would be if I hadn't promised you...One Day
I’m so sorry to hear that you’ve struggled with addiction!! And I’m really proud of you for your clean time!! My 26, year old daughter daughter wasn’t that lucky!! She had been clean for 8 months & checked herself out of rehab early!! And 11days later (September 5, 2020) she overdosed on fentanyl & was found dead in a motel room all.... herself!! My heart is literally shattered into a million broken pieces!!! I truly struggle with wanting to go & join her!!
OMG!!! I’m so excited because I finally found this song on iTunes! It’s not in the list of “Brantley Gilbert songs” - but when I searched “Brantley Gilbert you promised” ... there it was! It says “(Demo)” and the music extends a little longer, but it still sounds great! I bought it, and now life is good! LOL
This song is so meaningful, heartfelt..there are Soooo many emotions in this while he pours out his heart..and you can feel the way he did as he sings this straight from his heart & soul. His heart only hurts cuz he left first...which is even more heartbreaking
it's been 3 years since divorce, and I can't seem to get amnesia to forget. I've tried many times , but no one amounts to her , ever. I will carry that with me forever. "but some things you can't put down, Like the way I Love You sounds, I'll carry that around for years" Sammy Kershaw "For Years"
Aaron Peters I did the same for years held on . if u cld take a strangers advice .. please let someone else love you that deserves that much heart u have to offer ...! And let her go
I've come to realize anyone can promise you anything you want in life. They could promise you a lifetime filled with endless possibilities. Then you hear the words "I never loved you." You break into a million pieces and not sure how to pick up again. Promises aren't forever..
Darrell Hasty I know what you mean. I'm not giving up on anything just yet since I'm only 22 but I learned to becareful who promises you things in life.
this song reminds me of my old man we have been through so much this song reminds me of all tye mean stuff that we have said but we r still together and fixing to get married theres no one i raither spend my life with he has showed me what love was
I miss you, though you put me through more pain than anyone I have ever been with. I think of you constantly.... Think about being teenagers at the mall when we first met. I think about your grandmother's house in Mount Vernon, kissing in the rain, Amish country for your birthday, and holding each other in the bathroom when we found out we were going to be parents of our now beautiful baby boy. We didn't make it, your with a new man and my boy probably doesn't even know who I am. Though I try to block it out the best I can, I think about you two constantly, everyday.
it's a club of shame, and still hurts. 14 years together, her first everything, bought a house and got married. 2 1/2 years later, she can't do it anymore. ring , words , and life is all bs. song blows me away, on point.
Aaron Peters brother I'm there 20 years and left me or someone else I can't forgive and I know that she's winning if I don't just can't get over it and lost a good girl because of her
This song hit home more now than ever before as My husband has choosen his addiction over everthing in his life and how hard i fight today to help him and he has done nothing but cheat lie. This song will alway be dear to me
Why does it hurt so much? I promised you forever and I'll always keep that promise. I thought we were gonna last... I guess that I didn't mean shit to you..
Omg , Greg I pray every woman loves a man I like I love you. Thank you for 26 years. GOD BLESS no matter how or difficult my emotional pain was....I will always will Love you.
My friend who we had strong feelings for each other like you could call us boyfriend and girlfriend broke it all off and little does she know I'm crying as I type this because I felt so much love for her no matter how many people saw her as a bad person I looked through it all was true I knew she was a good person underneath it all and where others turned away because she others by using them I knew she was worth digging through and seeing she was the kindest woman you could ever meet. I just wish I could have her in my arms and say "I love you and I don't want you to go, please don't", but really wish I could cry into her because she was that special of a person underneath all of the bad..
Takes real person to see it but now days hard to tell ppl fake as hell but 33 years old heard it all but go with my gut i can usually tell read ppl very well 4 my age extent but im usually on point but i been wrong but ive been right more then wrong
Same way here love but remember one thing you will always be loved by plants me as well so just hold your head high your beautiful and gorgeous as ever just the way you are
*thanks once more for your support towards my career, I'm forever grateful❤️you're a great fan indeed, how many of my films have you watched? If you don't mind I will like to know you better. Via my private email address *brantleygilbert316@**gmail.com*
This song is for Terry and Barbie , May you be able to always be friends and be the best parents you can be those kids need you both even if ya all not together, your still family, love Sissy
Brantley you wrote a song that broke my heart. Rings vows and things mean nothing to some people. That was explained well in the song . Commitment is something some people know nothing about.
robert bartlett amen I was with my ex for 2 weeks but we had been friends for 4 months then on our 2 week she dumped me for a girl now I feel like dyin and I really might be to young but I truly loved her
Unfortunately you will never discover loves full potential if you do. Trust me i put mine up at 15 let it down at 51 to the same person and even though it did not end as i hoped it was so worth it. I thought it was a fairytale until then so i come away better and with dreams again
Man I really hate waking up in the mornings and not getting a message from her i took it all for granted and I will never get it back💔💔💔 and the nights I can’t sleep because that is all I think of she was the love of my life💔💔💔
