I'm a 31 year old black chick and this song grabs me. I'm not really into country but I feel Kenny on this one. It takes me back to a time I would rather forget but then again I value the experience. Thanking God that time heals most wounds. It sure cured me :-)
SUCH A TALENTED SINGER.Kenny is a Great Performer.My husband and I saw him with my Lil Bro August 2009 at Gillette Stadium.Kenny was Superb love him .Great songs too.
Love that song! He is the best musician, performer and songwriter. Gifted with so many talents. God has truly blessed him! Thank you for your music. Keeps me grounded in this crazy world. Love y’all. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗😍😍🤪🤪🙌🙌🤟🤟🤟😮
I finally bought this CD and the songs on here are something else. Speaks volumes to my heart right now and where i am. Kenny's song are so heart compassion and I am from New Jersey. I get to go see him and Tim in June. My old boyfriend was supposed to by me the tickets to go but never did for a graudation present. SO i bought them myself. We will see who i am inviting. All i can say is bring them cowboys on.
I lost my first love in a car wreck 30 yrs ago. Grateful to have had such a privilege to love. Resting in God's hands. A memory who was my man...a brief monent in time. Someday. A prayer to see him once again. Heaven.
For my nephew who was so heartbroken when his wife left him after years of struggle within their marriage. This song...cuts straight to the heart. May they both find happiness. 💙💔💙
This song helped me so much. I was in love with my best friend, but one day he walked out of my life. I listened to this song time after time trying to understand. Eventually I found someone and I understood my former friend wasn’t right for me. This song is so powerful and still gives me chills.
I've been in a similar situation. A girl I loved long ago.... I never told her how I felt... To this day she still doesn't know. But it's probably better that way .... 😔
I think this is one of the most beautiful songs that there is... Sometimes we see what we had when it is too late... and sometimes it hurts to let go, when we see the truth in some moments... man this song goes under your skin ...
I had 2walk away from a good guy...that was the hardest thing ever. Mr Ron Shaffer U treated me right&I appreciate that&U helped me in the right direction BuT where I am headed I couldn't take U. I struggled with letting go of U.
I always loved the sound and idea of this song but it never really connected with me til a few days ago. The girl I'd loved with everything I had for the past 3 years wasn't happy in the relationship anymore so we parted ways. I cited a line from this song in the letter I wrote to her saying a final goodbye. Hopefully I'll be better as a memory than I was at being her man.
i've been a fan of kenny chesney since 'how forever feels' way back in '99. but this performance from the 2008 grammys forever sealed my relationship to his music...damn. this is me...better as a memory/than as your man.
I absolutely have been in this place and time with that someone I was left with the ultimate decision to leave behind. My heart will never be that vulnerable again.
just a part of the passing through. Better as a memory than as your man. Got me a strong one now. that can handle his part of this relationship so yes your better as a memory than as my man.
Kenny love you so much and you always melt heart I have your love in my heart can't wait to finally see you miss you to my soulmate my everything pray for you and crew members love way sing love your voice
You my friend changed my life literally a show at the blossom music center I was in the second row. And you not only looked my way but you reached your hand out and blessed me but my wife was on my shoulders and you touched our lives I loved how you pulled your guns out and broke her heart with your true love you my friend are my BROTHER I will never forget you KENNY THANKYOU
This was my favorite Kenny Chesney before all the big stadium shit and island music. I picked this cd up at a gas station in Bean Station Tn headed to Cherokee Lake not far from where Kenny was from. That whole cd was awesome!!! Whatever it takes is my all time favorite Kenny song with this a close second. Gosh that was 92 or 93.
Move on like a sinner's prayer .... Learn to shoulder my mistakes... never sure when the truth won't do... I'm honest to a fault it's just who I am.... Every line has such clarity & depth. Not sure who wrote this song? Writer & Mr. Chesney sure fill the beginning to end of song so heartfelt & honest. Raw truth of letting go because of love. Have walked in those shoes.
Word to the wise - you'll have the time of your life w/'em - never be bored. Lots of drama - you won't care. In reality - he'll simply fade out of your life w/out warning. Do not marry him - it Will break your heart. Every song Kenny does hits close to home. "Better As A Memory" is no exception...
I move on like a sinners prayer Letting go like a levee breaks Walk away as if I don't care Learn to shoulder my mistakes I'm built to fade like your favorite song Gettin reckless when there's no need Laugh as your stories ramble on Break my heart, but it won't bleed My only friends are pirates That's just who I am I'm better as a memory than as your man Never sure when the truth won't do I'm pretty good on a lonely night I move on the way a storm blows through I never stay, but then again, I might. I struggle sometimes to find the words Always sure until I doubt Walk a line until it blurs Build walls too high to climb out But I'm honest to a fault That's just who I am I'm better as a memory than as your man I see you leaning, you're bound to fall I don't want to be that mistake I'm just a dreamer and nothing more You should know it before it gets too late Cause goodbyes are like a roulette wheel You never know where they're gonna land First you're spinning, then you're standing still Left holding a losing hand But one day you're gonna find someone And right away you'll know it's true That all of your seeking's done It was just a part of the passing through Right there in that moment you'll finally understand That I was better as a memory than as your man Better as a memory than as your man
This reminds me of someone i used to love and i ended it. It was very painful He was an addict and alcoholic and i could not take it anymore. This is something i will not forget
This song is so about me...I have loved and given it away because I have been scared. I have lost a lot of very worthy women. I want to apologize to all of those women. We always had GREAT times, but I just wasn't fully in it. They all deserved better than what I could give them. I am truly better as a memory than as their man. I have seen what I was doing wrong now, and have vowed to change. I am very sorry to all women that have been hurt...
You should know it before it gets too late, and she knew. I'm not even better as a memory to her. I know she will be my last true love, miss you everyday Emily
I was in an abusive marriage for 25 years to a woman who I tried to leave so many times. Each time she begged me to stay and said I was screwing her and the kids. I met a woman who was my dream girl. She was beautiful, kind, smart, loved me with all her heart but i couldn't leave my wife and kids I broke up with my lover 5 years ago and I think about her everyday,. The sad thing is she said she loved me and I was her love of her life and soulmate. Two months after we broke up I begged her to come back and said I would finally leave my wife so we could be together. She already moved on to another guy who was convicted of trying to murder his wife and his lover's at the times husband. When I found out I was furious and said the past 5 years of us loving each other meant nothing I guess to her as why on earth would a professional, beautiful, smart woman date a guy who was convicted of conspiracy to commit murder? The guy had the charges thrown out on a technicality but I was like what kind of woman would bring a guy like this around her two children. I told her everyone must think she lost her mind. Also, it hurts she would not take me back for this loser. He is also ugly too. I am way better looking. The only thing he has was more wealth over me but I am not that poor as I have six figure job. I guess she wanted his money and condo down in Phoenix. I ended up staying with my wife, life is great. My marriage is awesome now as I told my wife I was not putting up with her shit anymore. Have been really blessed but it does hurt everyday as I think of what could have been.
It makes me miss my girl even more than I ever thought I would. I tried to be good for her, I did everything I could but just like anybody else Im not perfect. I've made mistakes. But her knows how much I want her back and will always be willing to do anything to make things work. To see that beautiful angel smiling to me again, calling me her man. I love you Maria, Please come back.
