I was loved like that for 54 years, got married at 16, every one said it wouldn't last, lost my best friend 4 years ago. there will never be another one to take his place. loved like that.
Still Blessed for all those years you had together. I'm sorry you lost him 4 years ago. That has to be a hard 4 years. I can't hardly stand a few weeks,..... 4 years? Bless your Soul. I strongly believe you 2 will reunite again, when that day comes. Until you meet again. ♥️
Love this song ! I almost never post here, but I must share this. Five years ago I left the one who loved me like that. I am much older than she, and in my f'ed up mind I thought I was doing the right thing. I crushed her heart and walked away. There was never a day when she didn't cross my mind, and the pain and regret nearly consumed me with booze and hard living. She married another, and I lived each day in misery. I moved on and tried to forget, but never. Fast forward to last week, I walk into a business for sale to inquire the asking price, and she is standing behind the counter. Four eyes full of tears, we sat down and talked. We found we are both now unattatched, and by the grace of god I asked her to forgive me. 18 hours later, my phone rang, and although the road ahead is rocky, we are now on the way to reconciling. People, don't ever give up on the love of your life, go find them. I am convinced God himself led me to that door last week, and my faith is reborn.
My wife and I were married for more than 58 years. She’s in heaven now but I’m that old man planting flowers every 17th. Until I see her again I’ll still cry and yes, I’m still devoted. 3:45
My mom and dad were married 45 years and had been together since she was 15. She passed unexpectedly in 2022 at just 64. They had so many dreams for when she retired but she passed before she could.
24 years ago I asked my wife to marry me, I said to her that I know you have MS and it will only get worse, but I will never bail on you. She is bed bound and relied on me for everything. She just passed away 2 hours ago. She was loved like that. RIP Rita.
I’m so sorry for your loss! I literally cried listening to this & seeing your comment. I was diagnosed with MS in 2015 & I worry every day! Thank you ❤
I asked my then girl friend, to marry me. I told her I know you have MS and it will only get worse. But I promised her if she did marry me I would never bail on her. now its 21 years later and she cant do much for herself. So now I am her full time care giver. She is loved like that.
It's late Saturday night and I came across this song after another one "Ghost In This House" and I'm sobbing quietly. My little girls (ages 5, 2,1) whom I have custody of, are asleep now and I'm glad they can't see their daddy crying now. Their mother, the love of my life, left us for another man about a year ago. She had been cheating our whole marriage and never really loved me. This song really hit home with me...I wish I could be loved like that. Maybe someday. I put on a happy face for my girls, but inside I'm heart-broken. My girls are little angels and at least I have them to love me.
God bless you and your family!!! Stay strong I'm bout to be coming out of an nearly 20 year relationship I moved out at 17 in 36 now. I'M JUS READY TO LIVE MY LIFE SINCE I STOPPED LIVING MINE so HE could live his... I JUS WANNA BE LOVED BUT HE TREATS ME LIKE I'M A RUG! JAN 2.2011 I LOST MY MOM💔MY ROCK AND EVERY SINCE MY FAMILY HAS FALLEN APART SHE WAS THE GLUE THAT HELD US ALL TOGETHER! I'VE BEEN IN MY BEDROOM ALOT MORE LISTENING TO MUSIC JUS TO COPE WITH DAILY SITUATIONS. I lost my best friend to an over dose 2008 also I was the last to talk to him the first to find him life less in my room💔 I tried CPR but I was only seconds to late😭💔 god bless you all we gotta stay stronger then our day's before🙏
Sometimes I help out the cashiers at work by ringing up customers when we are super busy. An old man came through my line with flowers. He said they were for his wife and it was their anniversary. He was full of light and love as he talked about her. Then he told me she had passed away this past September. He told me they were married for well over 60 years and still going strong. He choked up said he was still very much in love with her. I was so heartbroken after he left, but also so amazed at the beautiful love that he had for his bride. I thought of this song.
I recorded this song a little over two years ago using a karaoke site I belong to . My late wife, Linda Kate sat next to me as I sang this song for her . Due to her advanced Alzheimer's disease she no longer had the ability to speak or stand on her own but deep in that frail body was a beautiful soul that had shared life and marriage with me for 51 years , 8 months and 19 days. When I finished singing the song while holding her hand in mine, I glanced over to her and somehow, despite the damage wrought by the disease, she had tears rolling down on her cheeks.About six months after I sang her this song, she passed away here in our home with me standing beside her , holding her hand and telling her it was okay to go on . Then God's angel came for her . Don't feel sorry for me , she was my queen from the day I met her as a 19 year girl in Atlanta and we were married just 8 months after our meeting . I had far more love than most people get to experience in life and I am slowly learning to cope and living on as she would want me to and getting out and about more . I guess the final thing I will say is that we got to live the words of this song . Will I ever have love like that again ? Maybe it's too late but I am not closing that door completely because I know from my time with her that anything is possible . If you have loved and lost, keep the faith and keep on going .
You were blessed to the bone. I feel your pain and love. I lost my man of 15 yrs way too soon last Dec 18 2021. I haven't been able to "move on", he was my every moment.
My grandfather died september 2nd of this year. My 90 year old grandmother buried her husband of 68 years september 7th this past month she now plants her flowers ina garden of stone. I type this with tears down my face thinking of what it must be like to be loved for 68 years. What it must be like to lay 68 years of marriage into the ground. I WANNA BE LOVED LIKE THAT>>>>> We love you POPS you will always be with us in our hearts our minds and our souls. May God Bless YOU
My father loved my mother to the day we buried him in 93 even with them being divorced he absolutely loved her and I do believe she loved him just as much but things got hard between them and they just could not hold it together but they were always there when the other needed them I guess that's just how it works sometimes I've been searching for that love for a very long time I've been married twice at 49 and I would do it again if I found the right person and it sure is not from a lack of trying
Kids nowadays don't see it that way there again I guess I didn't see it when I was young either it was only later on that I could understand what it was to be honestly loved by someone I have been married twice and I would do it a third time but it would take somebody very special the first two I was very young and very dumb I think I let the love of my life go about 10 years ago I should have held on with both hands and enjoy the ride but I didn't and I paid for it now but I would definitely love to be loved like that
It took me until I was in my early 40's (and several tries) but...I finally found her - Halfway across the world!!! We are now in our 60's and going strong!
Everyone deserves to be loved like this song. My wife left me back on Feb. Tomorrow is our anniversary. She just up and left. We were high school sweet hearts it will take forever to get over it. Hope the most amazing love finds you.
Met my ex wife at age 11. Started dating at age 13 . we both were 16 when we married . I ruined my marriage by age 32 we was divorced with 3 beautiful girls. To be honest I lost one of the best things that ever happened. I tried to fix things but it was already to late. I was cheating running with friends. She has forgiven me and. I now following Gods word. Will be getting Baptist in a few weeks
Man oh man.. it’s too bad that you ruined that.. That kind of love that you had doesn’t exist anymore. The world has ruined any chance of that kind of love existing.
Lemme tell ya, I'm a conservatory-trained music teacher of 25 years. Prior to that (and still so) I was a serious heavy-metal singer. I heard this song nearly 24 years ago, the first year I taught... I didn't like country music, I didn't understand it... BUT the local country radio station was all I could tune in on my car radio up on the prairie, so, grudgingly, I listened. The very FIRST time I heard this, I cried. Like REALLY wept! Music is music, no matter where or who you are. I am so touched by this. For whatever reason today, after teaching Kindergarten students about the xylophone lol this opening line popped into my head. I just had to find it. In my musical circle, I probably couldn't find a friend who's ever listened to it. But here I am at 50 instead of 26 and I'm crying here in my room... that's the power of music. Such vivid memories are triggered only by music... I would LOVE to hear Rascal Flatts cover this, wouldn't you? Just wanted to share, Dr. B
TO TODAYS COUNTRY ARTISTS: This is what a country song is. Beautiful Message, Beautiful accompaniment. It expresses the pain and the joys of the human condition. A song that elevates the human experience and resonates forever.
~~This song describes so beautifully what I have wished for my entire life~ even though I am almost 70 years of age I am never giving up hope! Because that is exactly what I want,also~ I wanna be loved like that~
I am 61 years old 12 years ago I lost my wife of 26 years, she was my best friend, my confidant, and my lover. It left a hole in my heart that never heals.To those of you that have lost a wife or a husband I can relate to your pain. This song I listen to every once in awhile makes a grown man cry but it is very well put.
I dreamed of being loved like that growing up and listening to this song. I have been loved like that and a still am loved like that. Twenty one years strong and with each day our love grows. My husband, my life, my heart, my soul.
relationships like this do exist!!!! my wife and i have been together for 20 years... i'm 41 and she in 38... we have been through my divorce and dealing with a step child and an ex-wife... and we stand strong today, because love makes us strong! meany of people jump ship, when it is sinking!!! but if there is true love, you'll find a way to make it work.... BE A MAN AND TAKE CARE OF YOUR FAMILY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
its sad to see so many females wishing they can be loved like that. how can a guy be with a girl and not absolutely love everything about her, and realize the reason why you even wanted a chance with her. one day every princess will find their prince. and when you do find her, treat her something special! and thank her for even giving you a look!
Well, life isn't really a garden man. Relationships are not perfect, in fact they take a lot of hard work, time, energy and devotion ,and that needs to be reciprocated from both parties. In addition, maybe if females would stop falling for guys that treat them malevolently, maybe they could be happy.
Ben Little yep they are wishing for it because of their own stupid mistakes, they keep choosing the jerks, liars, cheaters and beaters... where are the "nice guys" they long for? Right in the Friend Zone, where they left us.
My Dad was the glue that held our family together and happy 😊. We lost that precious man 44 years ago and we were definitely loved like that. Now Sweet Momma is with him in Heaven. My love and devotion to my wonderful parents will live on for eternity ❤. I Miss You Both so Much....Much Love, Daughter Patty ❤💖💕
If you were ever loved like that, PLEASE count your blessings. Some of us never get that our whole lives. I'm almost 60. I've enjoyed life and I'm thankful but I always wanted to be loved like that. I tried. lol was married 4 times and even engaged a few times. I felt like the runaway bride a few times, but I can't say I didn't try! I gave it my all and I wasn't afraid of commitment! Just chose the wrong ones or the ones who couldn't commit. I really don't understand it. I just know that IF you have that kind of love that's in this song, don't take it for granted . Hold on to it with everything you have. You're very blessed.
If you love her you better get her a diamond!! Otherwise you are a damn fool!! She don't need one but she deserves one!! Some women need them. Just get her one dont be dumb
Me too, I just lost him in September. For twenty beautiful years, I was lucky enough to spend every day with my best friend. I'm so grateful God gave me that beautiful man. ((Hugs)) and love to you honey, I know how bad it hurts.
I lost my husband 5 years ago we were married 25yrs grief is the hardest thing ever …. This song makes me cry every single time I listen to it but I can’t stop listening to it It’s what every single person wants is to be loved liked that … Powerful song 😢❤
Same here my grandpa is now 86 and grandma is 84 they have been married for 62 years now and adore each other as much as they did when they first got together. This is what american youth needs to look up to instead of sports players and rappers or rockers or movie stars. May there love last forever
One of my favorite songs ever.... Touches my heart everytime i hear it. Wish I could have this love again in life. When we are young we take for granted young love.
I'm 39 and lost my soul mate back in 2017. The pain of his loss still hits me hard. My devotion is still true! I have an old soul. Nobody my age would really understand. I come to this song to remember his love. No man ever loved me like the way he did.
I was blessed to have found a love like that. We had 33 wonderful years together and then I lost him to kidney failure. I know I'll never find a love like that again. But God gave me John and a love like that for 33 years.
I was just thinking about how this song gives me cold chills still after all these years. This song is so great not only because of the beautiful lyrics, but it's the voice that is expressing the lyrics. It's the beautiful melody that I haven't ever really been able to match with any other song. It's amazing to me how music is written and how these people choose the music notes that create such beautiful sounds. My mind is baffled.
"An old man kneeling all alone Plants his flowers in a garden of stone For seven years now she's been gone And his devotion is still going strong" This is the part i always cry at. It shows me how much some bonds really are and id trade give away anything to have that kind of love with a girl
Relationships like this does not exist anymore. People believe that a relationship is suppose to be easy, but its not. It takes work and devotion. So many people are fast to walk away when times get hard. They take the cowards way out. So many relationships would be saved if they would just commutate with each other instead of looking for something better. Just the thought of a man who's so sick of dead end relationships.
We all want to be loved like that, we want someone to fight for us, makes us feel wanted, but sadly people give up on each other so easily these days, "Love" doesn't hold the same meaning today as it did back then, Love today seems to mean, I'll love you til I get what I want or get sick of you... love from back then was the kind that could last decades upon decades and you were still as happy as you were from day one!!!
This is my favorite country band!!!!!! We are all born to love and be loved.... I was never explained as a young girl how precious I am or the accountability/standards I deserve from a partner. I was a single parent at 17. Now I am 42 yrs old now. Learned the hard way about Love!!!!! And one of these days, I WILL BE LOVED LIKE THAT..... Thank you Shenandoah :):)
If you want to be loved like that, you have to be able to love like that. My wife and I have been married for 15 years, and I knew that she had MS before we tied the knot. I told her that I will not leave her. The MS has made her unable to walk. I don't have anyone to take care of her so now I stay home and do it myself.
gaskan666 that's a beautiful gift you have given her. When I was married for 10 years I had an accident that left me with the ability to only walk short distances. My husband left me a year later. Goes to show you that some men are men and some are boys.
I pray you find it. I myself am blessed to have been given my beautiful loving and best friend from God to be my wife. It took along time and alot of heart break but just believe.
I had my love like that and lost him 5/21/13. I will never feel that way again but hope that everyone has the chance to feel that once in a lifetime love. Bear will always have my heart
I wish country music was still like this. This makes you feel, every time I listen to this song I cry, it's just that powerful. They just don't make em like they used to...
I have that love now, he is amazing and would do anything for me, this kind of love does exist. You just have to find the right person for it to work. Nobody is perfect but you have to give in and look for the perfect one for you. Love is an amazing thing. If you have it don't let go and if your trying to find it keep looking. Love is what keeps us going
I have listened to this song over a thousand times and I still cry when I hear it... I LOVE his music! We all want a love like this but I guess we meet people that claim they want it and end up someone other than what they claim...
My whole life growing up everyone's giving me hell cause i was always playing this song over and over and still do. Crazy there u are u know? Never thought id see anyone i know reading the comments. Hmmmmmm
I have loved my man for over 40 years. I understand what it means to want to be loved like that. We had our ups and down. But every time we look at each others I can still feel the love. Hope we have 40 more years.
I was scared of being alone when I was young kid when I heard this song that fear drove through my heart and mind when I found Heather I was notworried but when my mother left home and went to the old folks home for good I remembered this song because she was loved like that by my dad's and I want Heather and I to be loved like that to each other ❤️
I was happened heard this song through the country music radio,was amazed by the beautiful melody, can't stop listening it,it also reminds my two great friends love story,one of them passed away by a accident,Miss you Therese,hope you rest peacefully in heaven 😭
One of the most beautiful love songs of all time. I've been married to my beautiful wife for 34 years and I thank God for her each and everyday and thank him for the love that we share thank you Tammy for loving me like this
I have always loved this song, it brings tears to my eyes every time I listen to it. I wish someone would love me like that, I want that more than anything. Everyone deserves that one person. I hope I find mine.
I loved a man whom I still love to this day. I said those 3 words to him while he was in Edmonton going to school and I'm in Calgary. He's been my only love to this day. I'm in my 40's. He has my heart
Met my beautiful wife in H.S. she's amazing, great mom, such a beautiful Christian lady. Lord bless we me w so much. I'm so thankful. I doubt she ever see's this. If I was to die tomorrow ill be waiting on the day I see her again
I remember hearing this song way back when and thinking, this is the kind of love I want. Now that I've got it, I have to say, to those dreaming of it... Keep looking, you'll find it
I was married 40 years to a very loving man.. Had 2 children & 5 gr'children. He fell off the roof of a building & died instantly, 10 yrs ago..He was 2 weeks from retiring. I have wonderful memories, but no one to grow older with.
One of my favorite groups Shenandoah used to go to sleep and listen to them when I was young and I had the honor to tell every single one of them got autograph pictures and shirts and it was great at the Strawberry Festival in Florida God bless them they're great people and this is a great song real country
Anyone that has ever had a love like that, have truly had God's love shown to them. My mom and dad celebrated their 26th wedding anniversary in the hospital as my sweet Godloving one of a kind truly perfect dad laid in a hospital dying from cancer at 50 years old. That's been 17 years ago, when I was a young 16 yr old child, the day dad passed is the day I died as well, dad was my Friday night date, a true believer, like no one else I've ever met, so kind and Godly , never said a bad word about anyone, and to this day Ive never heard an ill word about him. My life dream was to find a man like him, a fairy tale, but the Lord had another path planned out already, thankfully I did have a son that filled some of the void in my heart but I still hope for that kind of love from a man that sees me the way my dad looked at my mom, so loving, so happy, real unconditional love. She was his one and only love, as he was hers.
im 50 and my wife of 26 years , this was our song . i have let her down being on mental disability . i never knew this would happen . my past came out . its horrible but she stands by me . why did those horrible things happen ?
I don't care if you dont like this song. This song has powerful meanings. The people who like this song stay positive, Pleasant, And strong. .... the rest, Can go .... themselves...... Thumbs up to good music.
I love this song! It reminds me of my Nana and Papa's love. I start this new year divorced but no more abuse. Now I wonder if I'm ever meant to find love like that.
My husband of 27 years and I have two "songs" Moon Over Georgia and this one...I am loved like that and am blessed...his Mama passed and he and his dad loved her very very much so I am really touched by this message.
