This song just stopped me in my tracks today….
Better as a Memory – Kenny Chesney
Move on like a sinner’s prayer
let 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
I get 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, it’s just who i am
i’m better as a memory than as your man
i’m 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
i’m honest to a fault, it’s just who i am
i’m better as a memory than as your man
I see you lean in, you’re bound to fall
I don’t wanna be that mistake
i’m just a dreamer, nothing more
you should know it before it gets too late
cause good-bye’s 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
one day you’re gonna find someone
right away, you’ll know it’s true
that all of your seeking’s done
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
