Vietnam broke my gf & I up when I was sent to war. We dated all through a small town high school. I'm 1 yr older & gave her a promise ring in 1970 when she graduated from high school. I was already in college. 1 yr later I was drafted, & going to war. She thought she'd never see me again & it broke her heart. I told her to have a good life & just move on. I didn't think I would ever come back alive anyway. This song....I found in 2004. These words- are - were my word too . It took me 35 yrs to find her in 2005. This year, 2023, we've been married 17 years. She still had the promise ring I had given to her in 1970. Never give up on real true love.💞 This song has always been my words. I had not seen her since 1971. In 2005 I found her near Kansas City, Missouri.7 months later (2006) we were married, 14 hours after not having seen each other for 35 years. I would give anything to meet Chris & from the bottom of my heart, I would thank him for putting my words, my feelings, my heart into words. It brought us back together. This time forever. Thank you, Chris. For our life growing old together. 💑
My wife of 20 years died 7 years ago and I'm still struggling to find my way but I'm still breathing in and breathing out try to find my way back to life dont know if I ever will but I'm trying
10 months ago my husband of 24 yrs walks out the door .I miss him everyday.Don’t know how much longer I can breathe in and breathe out .I’m tired so tired of being tired .
@@tacgrp Good to hear that! ♥️ Which of my songs do you love most. and hope you have ever been to any of my concert before! Actually im not suppose to be talking with any of my fans on here. but i create this private profile to get to talk with some honest ones among my fans out there!
I couldn't remember the name of this song in 2002.. I didn't hear it again till 2024 when I got on the interweb and listen to every stop 100 top songs. I got it now. Best country song.
Just saw Chris Cagle last night and he was AWESOME! When he sang this song, the whole crowd was singing along, he got chocked up about us singing it. He stopped his band and played it acoustically and had us sing it with him. It was such an emotional performance for everyone!!
Saw him St freeborn county fair. He stopped several times because he was overwhelmed that his fans knew all the lyrics. One of the best shows I havr seen
+billy walls Country music had some great artists emerge at the turn of the century. One of my favorites was Clay Davidson who is now living in VA. I dont even listen to country radio anymore because of the lack of traditional country artists on the radio.
Listening still in 2022. I lost my husband of 21 years and this song is what I needed to hear today. It's the way I deal with him since he's been gone. November 12, 2022 will be a year since he's been gone
I lost my momma December 2021 and I am still breathing in and breathing out. My dog has been and is my lifeline to this world. Last week I thought I was going to lose her because she was sick and could not stand on her own without help. I hot her to the vet. With the help of medicine and prayers, she is doing well. I know she is getting old. She's 12. I just realized when it's her turn, she will take the rest of my heart with her.
@@ooohhitskaren63 it's so very hard, I got my mom's cat, she is only 4 years old . I treat her like a little princess, told her that we had to be good girls if we wanted to see mommy again. We been good.
And now it's June 2020 and I am listening to this, next is "Mercy" by Brett Young, then "Another Try" by Josh Turner, "If You Loved Me" by Tracy Lawrence, "Untangling My Mind" by Clint Black and "Ghost in this House" by Alison Krauss...
Now it’s August 2020 and I’m crying like a fool. Why does this shit hurt so bad? I took your name, had three kids with you, gave you all of me for 9 years. Just why?
@@alexisaldridge241 You know why it hurts, it hurts us because we, no matter what happens, have too much heart and soul; we are still human. It hurts us because we are open and vulnerable and we had hopes and believed in dreams and didn't doubt that one day it would happen. We didn't doubt them because we are honest and it didn't occur that to us that someone we loved could be false. Anais Nin once wrote "We don't see people how THEY are; we see them how WE ARE." Meaning honest people get deceived because we don't see dishonesty in others. You're wonderfully human. Give yourself a hug. Now, rid yourself of the kids for a day, have a bubble bath, some tea or a cocktail. Eat some good food, buy yourself a treat. You'll find life gets better and you have the emotional fortitude to survive. 🤣🙃
I lost my daddy today to cancer. Im going to miss you daddy. I wasnt ready for you to go. I wish I could hear your voice again, wish i could have another hug and see your contagious smile.
Chris, you are hands down my favorite country singer. I drive truck. I spend alot of time away from who I love. You warm me up and make me feel OK because you really feel the music. I love you bro. Please keep making music
This song has hit me the last few weeks. Being with someone that doesn't love you back all you can do is breath in and breath out. Really heart broken.
Yeah it sucks when you love someone with all your heart and they do nothing but use you. Even tho you've bent over backwards and went to hell and back for them and they just dont care.
Kendra, I hope you realize life is to short to stay in a relationship, where your love is being taken for granted. Realize your worth more and deserve a love that is reciprocated and take no less. You need to start with loving yourself. I hope you fi d your last love darling.
I totally agree with you. Last Sunday was the break off when the girl he was seeing help me corner him. He blocked me. Lol busted. But doing that very same thing. It's hard when you have a elephant sitting on your chest. Heart broken love 💔
the thing i find funny is shes engaged. but homeboy better pray they never run into me. i still give her buttlerflies. have fun explaining that to him. explain why you change completely around some guy hes never met.
❤ l've loss my better half a year ago and this song made it special for me 😢 I will never forget all the crazy things we made as memories ❤ I will never forget you and your love Gabby ❤
When Chris Cagle debuted in the year 2000, the Nashville scene ate him up. His Southern-rock charm mixed well with his more traditional country radio fare, with Cagle even co-writing a majority of the songs himself (something that doesn't always happen in the Nash Vegas scene). Allegedly, his fans were so intense they dubbed themselves "Cagleheads." Yet in 2015, seemingly out of nowhere, Cagle announced that he was leaving the music industry for good to spend time with his family. The day after the announcement, he released an additional statement implying that it was the media who tainted his career with some "BS slants!!!" He goes on to lament that "Nobody in Nashville or media gave a s--- that I toured for the last couple years after I released Back In The Saddle!" He reportedly was making his way for a comeback in late 2018, but there's been no mention of him since. Hmm, wonder why the media isn't keen on reporting his latest news ...
Taking one day at a time until she realizes I'm that one thing she can't live without. That day may never come, but she'll be in my heart forever. Thankful for the time we had together. Even though it will always hurt.
A great song Chris Cagle has a strong beautiful voice that touches everyone's heart. Everytime I hear this song bring a tear to my eyes beautiful song Chris Cagle is a great song writer who really sings from the heart. I love Chris Cagle 😎🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸🎸🌹🌹❤️❤️😥🏋️🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🎸🎸🌹

The last two years this is the only way I get thru each day. This year Sept. Would have been our 30th Anniversary.. My heart is broken. I miss my Cowboy so very much.
dont anyone ever give up, this song came out whn my love of my life was lost 2 other obligations. and 10yrs later we found each other and been 2gether for 2yrs. u never know, everything happens 4 a reason
I don't usually listen to country music, my b/f always sends me most of the music I listen to and has for the past 6 years.... but a few months back we where seperated for a few months and I played this song 20 times a day LoL.....it's a beuatiful song.....Now i listen to it to remind me everyday how lucky I am to have his love .......
This song popped up as I'm sitting trying to figure things out. Pulled at my heart and is how I'm feeling. Everyone says to just let go. Easier said than done....
This is back when country music had meaning and true beats bout love and heart break and now its about these new age country singers that don't have any beat that fits the song besides Chris Stapleton he's got every legend in his voice
This is a great song, and a remix for someone who lost their love to cancer or whatever would be great. Chris, you are a great singer and artist, thankyou for your talent!!!
@Chris Cagle Thank you for your reply and the interaction on your channel, It is a surprise to receive a reply here. This song really had a lot of feeling behind it. I believe it touched a lot of people in different ways.
@@susancolivier Good to hear that! ♥️ Which of my songs do you love most. and hope you have ever been to any of my concert before! Actually im not suppose to be talking with any of my fans on here. but i create this private profile to get to talk with some honest ones among my fans out there!
December 2020 and this album is as good as the first day it was released even better cuz it's Timeless and it hasn't aged a day. Chris Cagle is so underrated it's ridiculous. Still to this day after all he has proven and done and written and sung just so underrated by the industry very sad but great that he does not conform to Industry standards that he does his own thing it works for him do it damn well works for me
2 years and im still just taking it day by day. This song speaks volumes.. Im pretty sure you are starting to realize that im someone you cant live without...
My wife that left me is one I cant live without she has no clue how much I need her and wish she would just come to me my heart has been lynnes since our first time and their could never be another Lynne merrifield is my dream come true and ever since she left my life has been a total nightmare , Lynne is u see this please stop the games and come to me I love you more than life I need u .

I love this song, it's one of my favorites of Chris, his voice is so colorful and soft, it was the time when he was taking care of himself. I miss those times.
I have been doing this Breath in, an breath out Since my oldest passed away last month! And this very song is the way ill probably be for the rest of my life! Luv ya kiddo always!
I will always love him more then anything in this world. He is the best part of me besides my son. I am in love with this man more then I will ever admit to anyone because I don't think that they would understand that kind of love coming from someone of my age.
