Lyrics:
I know I’m probably better off on my own
Than lovin' a man who didn’t know
What he had when he had it
And I see the permanent damage you did to me
Never again, I just wish I could forget when it was magic
I wish it wasn’t 4am, standing in the mirror
Saying to myself, you know you had to do it
I know the bravest thing I ever did was run
CHORUS
Sometimes, in the middle of the night, I can feel you again
But I just miss you and I just wish you were a better man
And I know why we had to say goodbye
Like the back of my hand
But I just miss you and I just wish you were a better man
A better man
I know I’m probably better off all alone
Than needing a man who could change his mind
At any given minute
And it was always on your terms
I waited on every careless word
Hoping they might turn sweet again
Like it was in the beginning
But your jealousy, oh I can hear it now
Talking down to me like I’d always be around
Push my love away like it was some kind of loaded gun
Oh, you never thought I’d run
REPEAT CHORUS
I hold onto this pride because these days it’s all I have
And I gave to you my best and we both know you can’t say that
I wish you were a better man
I wonder what we would’ve become
If you were a better man
We might still be in love
If you were a better man
You would’ve been the one
If you were a better man
Yeah, yeah
REPEAT CHORUS
We might still be in love, if you were a better man
Yeah, yeah
I know why we had to say goodbye
Like the back of my hand
But I just miss you and I just wish you were a better man
A better man
We might still be in love
If you were a better man
You would’ve been the one
If you were a better man

bravery is leaving a toxic relationship and knowing that you deserve better.
Facts
AMEN to THAT!!!!
And maturing is realizing your mistakes and your partners mistakes and moving on
Even if it's not toxic, sometimes he is just not what you deserve. It's hard to leave a person whom you adore but you had to. It's like punishing him and yourself. But it's alright. It's alright
I’m in one and I wanna get out … I’m confused cuz I care 😫
this is objectively one of her best songs.
Agreed
Agreed she captured the story so well 😢
Yes! One of my favorite vault songs on this album.
Absolutely
100%. Its definitely up there on Red with all too well, holy ground and state of grace
Left an abusive relationship. The right thing but doesn’t take away the grief. This song has always hit hard. Thank you Taylor.
Hope you found your better man :)
Same!
Same, girl. This song always hit so very close to home for me. I can't count how many times I've listened. Always strangely comforting.
Me too 🙏🏼😔
I am so glad that you left that relationship. I had a cousin in a similar situation, she was not as lucky and couldn't escape it. I am proud of you and anyone else who left this kind of relationships
“You would’ve been the one if you were a better man”
“It would’ve been fun if you would’ve been the one”
agreed but for me I relate them to two different ppl
@@nadine389 Which two people??
@@emmakaplan7508 oh just 2 different people in my own life, nothing to do with Taylor at all. Because in my experience the guy who needed to be a better man would not have been a fun time. However 🤔 this other guy I knew a long time ago would've been.
amazing association, love it!!! just sent the 1 to my ex the other day...and i wanna send better man to him too...
Interestingly I noticed similar and more clues between this song and "the One". I know people relate the songs to their own experiences which is the way it should be. But as far Taylor concerned is not hard to see she is still missing at lest some aspect of that relationship. I wonder if Jake ever would listen or hear these songs.
Better Man is definitely one of the most heartbreaking song in this album.
True!
Ronan**
Forever Winter and Ronan are also definitely up there, move me to tears each time
@@elleswickhart2588 Me Too! 😭
And nothing new.
This song hurts so much. Every lyric pierces through my heart. It’s so painful to love someone who doesn’t see your worth until you’ve finally decided that you had enough.
It's sad because I listen to this song everytime I miss my dad.
"I wonder what we would've become if you were a better man."
Happy Fathers Day, Papa.
Me too
Same here
me2
oh wow same😭 i hope everyone here with daddy issues is able to heal eventually
FACT : "Better Man" captures the feeling of getting out of a toxic, perhaps abusive, relationship and accepting the sorrow that follows the breakup.❤️
Yes I left one in July and this song and tolerate it are what helped me leave. And Halsey’s whole Manic album 🖤
i left one in february and this song makes me proud of myself
@@hannahkelsey5660 You should listen to July by Noah Cyrus

@@lunarodrigues214 Jesus that fits my situation 😭😭😭😭
“The bravest thing I ever did was run”…. This line deserves so much more praise 🍂🧣❤️
Reminds me of:
“Sometimes giving up is the strong thing.
Sometimes to run is the brave thing.
Sometimes walking out is the one thing.
That will find you the right thing.”
I did this song in real life. I ran twice and now I am happy alone. No more wishing?
Yeah... That's right.... It's really hard to imagine....
It takes courage to leave a relationship with someone who isn’t the one for you
It personally means a lot.She is a masterpiece and her art❤
No one knows how excited I was for this song. I kept listening to the Bluebird Cafe performance over and over again. Now that its here, I can't stop the tears-
SAME BESTIE UGH SO EXCITED
Yessss
I did that too.
Same ssame
same here, finally we do not need to listen to that rat's voice interrupting her all the time
'the bravest thing I ever did was run'
this line resonates so much, it reminds me of everything I got over by just moving away from them
One of the best songwriters of our time, at the very top of her game. The world really is a better place with her in it.
Don't agree with her politically but damn can this lady put pen to paper and make it real. Wise beyond her years lyrically an angel
Great song writing. Little Big Town did a fantastic job with this song.
Yes. I’m glad Taylor wrote it and gave it to them to sing. I’m also glad that we have her version now as well.
I'm so happy Taylor has finally recorded 'Better Man'. The most awaited From The Vault song other than all too well 10 mins version, I must say
Yes! I RAN to this CZcams video! It’s my favorite song!
I've been SO EXCITED for this one
I watched All Too Well 10 minutes version and flew here
@@ozgeek09 ME TOO!!!;
So true
"sometimes, in the middle of the night i can feel you again" "the bravest thing i ever did was run" this lyric hits me so hard
*hugs hugs* proud of you
It was painful but you made it out alive 💖
Be strong. I have been there as well :(
Me too 🥺
and then " you never thought i'd run" . what a bridge
I've been there it hurts so much....
I love this song! 💗
Its not angry.
Its not blaming.
Its transparency and vulnerability. 💗
Lolol I didn't realize with heartbreak comes anxiety and lack of sleep for me. Her mentioning the middle of the night and staying up at 4am is so relatable. It's crazy how bad it gets. Hope everyone is doing okay. I wouldn't wish this pain on anyone
This song sits differently when it's dedicated to your dad. I know it has the lyrics in love and the one and in the middle of the night I can feel you again.. but none of those lines have to be romantic in meaning even if they were written that way. And that is the beauty of music and Taylor's skills. When I hear this song from her.. I hear the lines like we might still be in love and think of the love between a father and daughter.. the line.. you might still be the one.. I think of my dad being the man to raise me and be the man I look up too.. and the line sometimes in the middle of the night I can feel you again.. I picture my dad carrying me to bed late at night when I had fell asleep.. but unfortunately he wasn't a better man. But I am thankful that Taylor gave me a song I can release my feelings too. Thank you Taylor.
I can relate so much!
Thats such a beautiful interpretation! I hope you're doing well❤
@@Daisy-ps5xi thank you so much
Your comment tears me down 😢
Dude, that is exactly how I hear this song too
She could release a million songs and I would listen to ALL OF THEM
and commit them to memory!
Screaming, crying…
@@guita7445 perfect storms..
Right
@@pratiktamundkar2123 i could make all the .....
Dedicating this song for my dad cuz I really wish he was a better man. I'm low-key crying my eyes out on father's day xD
dude literally me 😭
i feel you 😭🥺🥺🥺
me too. this hits different when you had dad problems 😂
"Now they say, my album Red is filled with too many breakup songs", but we're here for it, TayTay, we love crying to your songs, we seriously do.
Taylor Swift is absolute genius, this smart strong woman shaped so many young kids and teenagers, I would dance to her songs in my room when I was 9 and defend her from any criticism because I know that she is amazing, she taught us all how to get better after a heart break, she taught us how to appreciate your friends and most important, she taught us how to appreciate ourselves. Congrats Taylor for regaining your freedom, you are a kind, smart, strong, lovable and gorgeous woman and us Swifties will support you no matter what! We love you!
Same. Taylor’s music has been part of my life since I was 9. I’m 20 now and I will forever her hold her music dear to my heart.
Thank u so much for supporting her who is so talented and amazing.I am also a big fan of her.😆
I supported this woman from her first album, defended her and partied with her at her concerts many many times. So sad to see her sell out in these recent years.
Criticism is ok , it helps one but hate is unnecessary
it's actually such a sad concept. how you're reflecting on a past relationship and that everything could have been different if they were better to you, and how you wish they were cause you loved them so much. if only that love was reciprocated
My 28 year marriage is ending and this song sums it up well. I stayed hoping the magic would return, but ultimately, it never did and I walked away. He told me he hadn’t been happy for a long time. I wish he had told me that rather than treating me the way he did. Sad thing is I still miss him.
@@evonnesmith6927 Sorry I'm going off tangent here, but reading your comment made me feel lots of things as it really hits close to home. My parents went through the same thing and it deeply hurt me. You've absolutely made the right choice to walk away after waiting and hoping and you should believe that yourself. Relationships in the end of the day are meant to make both parties happy and better, and when they're not doing that, they're not worth it. 28 years are a long time for that person to take root in your heart and grow and grow until all you can feel and love is them, but know that you can and still will find happiness out there, people who will love and value you like how you deserve to be treated. Everyone deserves what's best for them and even though it might have been magic in the beginning, sometimes they're simply just not the right person. It's better to realise and walk away, than staying in a fizzled out, draining marriage. It takes an immense amount of courage to leave them and turn a new page and what you've managed to do is so respectable. I only wish my mum has done the same. All the best wishes to you :)
@Elle Swickhart-Thank you for your encouragement. I think it’s the hardest thing I have ever done.
I’m crying! 😭
I don't get it why I can't hate him after all the things he did. I still do treasure those memories even though I'm not sure if he were sincere at that time. I hope time will heal me I don't mind if takes a long time as long as I am fully healed.
Same boat I don't get to hate him. I just told myself he was tired that's all and everything went as back as being strangers now.
Agreee same girl same
No one's ever fully healed 🥲
Same here. I didn't even know him long, but I have such fond memories with him at first that it's hard to combine them with the reality of how he treated me at the end. I can't see both sides of him as the same person.
i feel the same way and that makes me feel fragile and pathetic
from her "in the middle of the night when I'm in these dreams it's like a million little stars spelling out your name" to "sometimes in the middle of the night, I can feel you again, but I just miss you and I just wish you were a better man" real quick. Nothing hurts more than realizing how your once romantic nights turned into nostalgic ones.
Better man is officially out as a Taylor song and I'm loving it.
It was technically alrready out as a taylor swift song.
when she sings her own songs and tells her own story, it feels like we can feel all the pain to the bones.
I know she is pop now, but damn she slays at country. This song hits so hard. Beautiful song!
If this is country
Then GHOST is metal
And Beyonce's not whining
About Grammys
This version is the best. Nobody performs it like her.
“And I gave you my best and we both know you can’t say that” 😭 TAYLOR I LOVE YOU
THIS HITS DIFFERENT WHEN YOU DEDICATE THIS SONG NOT FOR A MAN FROM A PAST RELATIONSHIP, BUT FOR YOUR FATHER 😭🖐️ I just wish he was a better man for my mom.
yepppp
I've always dedicated this to my father 😔
yes lmao
oh wow holy shit I'm crying
TRUEEEE I AGREE
The line where it says oh you thought i would never run >>>> im crying
I feel this song on a spiritual level.
I was rejected, patronized and treated with ungrateful hate.....
Wish you were a better man!!!
The feeling of missing someone despite knowing that they treated you like shit is so painful and difficult to surmount. It’s like stopping a toddler from chasing and running around
🫂🫂🫂
Thanks for writing this. I'm going through this right now and I don't know how to cope.
@@roza_sinha No one does. But hang in there, it’ll all get better if you stay on the right path. It’s rough but you need to keep reminding yourself why you left
@@crystalclear5287 Thanks for being so kind💙
I genuinely think this is one of her best songs.
Of course it is always has been
It is already 3 am in the morning while listening to this song and my tears fell down on my cheek.
It feels like I am the one singing this song infront of the man I loved before. I almost gave everything that I have and break my parents rules for him. I chose him over me and my parents, and everything around me. I made him my world, like it came to the point that I can’t live without him. But I want also my love to be reciprocated the same way I give, butit didn’t happened. So…
“The bravest thing I did was RUN, I thought I would never RUN”
You Were so brave, darling
Omgggg
Same :(
That song got me through some rough times. It took a while to accept that the mask he wore early wasn't really who he was. I fell in love with someone that didn't exist. I gave him my best and we both know he can't say that. I'm grateful to the people who lured him away from me. I pray they find the same peace and healing.
The people who disliked must have missed the thumbs up button because their eyes were full of tears
They prob thought the button says “dis i like” 😭😭😭
@@guita7445 I LOVE THIS
Lmao I was jamming too much that I accidentally hit the dislike button...until I saw it and quickly changed it
@@remingtonolmschenk7545 thank you lol, and my comment gave 13 likes
She's basically a poetess, who pens down her feelings and experience , in such a pretty way that I'm more amazed by her writings than her godly vocals.... much more love and strength to you Taylor....keep on writing and inspiring❤️❤️🥰
Actually, I am far more impressed by her musicianship. She is a genius melodist. There are lots of people who could write lyrics like this, but very few who could write so many brilliant melodies.. and harmonise them so well.. song after song. Having said that, I feel this song's lyrics are actually some of her best. Because she wrote it for others to sing it is far less self-orientated than most of her lyrics from other songs.. and I think they work beautifully because it is easier for the listener to identify with the message. I am really impressed she wrote them when she was only 16 (I think) before she could have really known from personal experience about the themes of the song.
@@zx7-rr486 no doubt she's a great musician ...but what she writes,let it be those simple words,she just adds much more meaning to them ..these songs are literary beauties
And well I too get your point...bcoz yeah, her Melodies..heavenly❤️
this hits different when you dedicate this to yourself, wishing you were better, but also thinking you're probably better off alone.
It just hits differently when you dedicate it to your toxic ex-friends
Remembering when "Better Man" was first released by Little Big Town and became a huge hit, I thought "that really sounds like a Taylor Swift country song." And so it was, and so it now is. Superb authentic performance.
Taylor has her own genre
Pearl Jam’s Betterman?
@@munich6116 um no that's different lolol
No wonder I already knew it😂, okay that makes sense lol
I knew it too! Shes such a poet!
This song hits you differently if you've struggled in a toxic relationship and finally left it
I heard this song right after I left a toxic relationship. Gave me chills
@@sabrinahighfield I feel u
Big hugs
Exactly
real
Listened to the song over and over. Finally decided to get out.
As the years roll on by Taylor Swift has more than delivered the potential she displayed as a teenager. She continues to mine the emotions of the human condition and she is master at conveying the highs and lows of life. I'm an old man and I find her constantly refreshing and seamlessly mining the vein of deep feelings. I'm a fan.
Already gave a yacht back what else do you want
😊
This song has heard people cry tears and promising to be their stronger selves again✨✨
Missing someone you know you're better off without is the hardest thing ever. Miss Taylor, thank u sm for recording this masterpiece. Crying* throwing up* singing my heart out*
She's done it againn🤩 better man is like one of my favorite songs and I'm so happy she owns it nowww❤️ Taylor's honestly worked so hard and deserves to get all her masters back🧣🍂
She’s always owned it
Can't wait for Reputation!
I don’t know how taylor always sing our feelings. Soo beautiful♥️
"Sometimes in the middle of the night, I can feel you again"... The lyrics hit on a whole different level. The music compliments it so beautifully and adds the further layer of magic to it!!
"and I gave to you my best and we both know you can't say that" GO TELL HIM SIS, why is this the first time I actually pay attention to these amazing lyrics
Cuz Taylor’s singing it ;)
You KNOW I had to come here first. I've been relistening to Bluebird Cafe performance and preparing.
Thank you, Taylor
Same!!!
SAME
I dedicate this song to my father especially the "I wish you were a better man" part.
Same. And the "bravest thing I ever did was run"
Me
I listen to Pearl Jam’s Betterman and hear a song of a weak, afraid, woman in an abusive/toxic relationship- unwilling or unable to leave & find a better man & being co-dependent. Then I listen to Taylor’s Better Man and hear the woman who found the strength, courage, and confidence to take control knowing the best thing for her is to leave, despite loving the man and having done all she could to make things work…. But HE was unwilling/unable to change to be a better man. Love these songs. And listen to them often back-to-back.
"The bravest thing I ever did was run"
It's time to go : "Sometimes to run is the brave thing"
"I know, I am probably better off all alone"
King of my heart : "I made up my mind, I'm better off bein' alone"
"And I know why we had to say goodbye, like the back of my hand"
Breathe: "You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand"
"You would've been the one if you were a better man"
The 1: "It would've been fun if you would've been the one"
Wow
“You would’ve been the one if you were a better man”
“It would’ve been fun if you would’ve been the one”
@@selenasanchez-saucedo5268 how did I not noticed the obvious one, thankyou.
Also :
Breathe: "You're the only thing I know like the back of my hand,"
Better Man: "And I know why we had to say goodbye, like the back of my hand"
@@camibvaz arrghhh I wonder how many more I have missed 😭👩🦯
this song hits different when you’re the one who broke it off with someone you had high hopes for… I do understand that things really had to end, but in the healing process there are times when we think of what if’s, like if they treated you better would things turned out better..?
*hot girl summer mood: closed*
*sad girl autumn mood: opened*
The way I have been waiting for this for YEARS and it did not disappoint
SAME, literally since little big town recorded it.
Taylor never disappoints. 😍😍
She is the the best song writer of the whole century. No doubt
Thank you "the 1"
Taylor didn't write this song. This song has been out for years!
Yes she wrote this song. The band that released this song years ago was given this song by Taylor .but she most definitely wrote this song @@dawngalewaler1989
@@dawngalewaler1989Yes she did and she gave it to Little Big Town to sing. This is the original version.
Am I the only one dedicating this song to my old self, looking back on all the wrong choices I've made and singing it now, fully healed ?
If not, everything's gonna be alright and the planets, the fates, and all the stars will align for you ❤️
❤❤
I’m just waiting for the healing part to come
@@tlrsmomit does come i promise, it just takes time🤍
I love this song.
I played this song (the original) on repeat when I left my abusive ex. I needed a song that said I loved him but knew I needed to run. A song that said it was ok to miss them.
This was it. If he was a better man ...
I never went back. And I think this song helped that.
I can feel this too. I miss my buddy so much… I have to leave him but I will always miss him.. in my heart…
Well I left my boyfriend who had very big anger issues because I realized that true love is not when you are scierd that your lover one day will be Violent with you
I’m so proud of you
I also listen to this when I think of my abusive ex.
I showed this song to my friend who literally asked, “did she write this song for you?!”
Anyway, I am proud of you for leaving. It isn’t easy
I just left my abusive ex. We were living together on another country and I just packed my stuff and left. Missing him like crazy but knowing he wasn’t what I deserved. This song portrays exactly what I’m feeling rn
Naiiyak ako sobra😭😭😭😭 salamat at meron tayong inang kulot na palaging nakakaintindi ng feelings natin kahit sa paraan ng kanta😭
Mabuhay si inang kulot!!! 🤗❤❤❤❤
Tama!
iba talaga si inang kulot 😭😭😭
Yessss ❤
ramdam ko rin mare 😭
A song that you wish to cry out to someone you loved but did not want to give effort on the relationship.
I'm still so obsessed with this song.
No offense to Little Big Town but i love Tay's version so much. Since she wrote it, she knows how to sing it 😉
Well BLT’s harmonies are lovely on their version
@@hugo6390 bacon lettuce tomato 😭😭
@@harrietbowles1153 omg didn’t know they make up a delicious burger😍
@@hugo6390 exactly, they did a perfect version of this song but it's obvious that Taylor sings with more feelings because she wrote it and felt so bad
The original is almost always better. (An exception is that Panic! At the Disco is better at singing Say It Ain't So by Weezer.)
Those were the days when Taylor ruled the world with her emotions. 😢 I'm crying rn my mother listened to this song cause my dad was very cruel to her in the past . 😭
Edit :she is the music industry you all , so yea she still does rule the world.
She still does rule the world with emotions.... My queen 👑❤️
i hope ur mum’s okay 🥺
@@coquettequeen08 yes i too🥺❤
Used to not like Taylor just because it was the cool thing to do and now she’s pretty much on every playlist I have. Her lyrics are unmatched and she cares so much about her music
It's amazing how Taylor tends to make us cry our heart out with the most simple words
What name is mine?
I'm so happy that she can finally showcase every song she has. I found this song last year when i was broken. This song helped me realize who was worth my time. IF YOU KNOW THE PERSON IS TOXIC DON'T HESITATE TO LEAVE!!!Thank you Taylor 😭💓
I am so glad your doing better💖
@@agentnine3973 Thank you! 🥰 Couldn't have made it out without songs like this! 💓💓💓

Never alone 💜
You’re not alone dear Tairyin of the Earth..
Trust me!
I'm so sorry. (Virtual hug.)
Hugssss!!🤗❤️
I think she had a lot of guys who really needed to be better men. They couldn’t deal with a woman of her talent and strength. Hope she finds a better man. This song is so sad for those of us who stayed too long with someone who couldn’t be a better man.
I’d agree if we were on guy 3. But guy 8…
@@zachb1706 Have you personally had to endure what Taylor Swift has had to in her life. Just a thought to ponder before you sadly make comments like this.
Starting at 3:33, do you guys notice that there's a Taylor backing vocal and it sounds like young Taylor? Could it be that she used part of the old, never released version? 🙆♂
POV: Swifties after listening to Red TV in it’s entirety
“I wish it wasn’t 4am, standing in the mirror,
Saying to myself you know you HAD to do it”
literally me rn😭😭
So true.
Me at literally 4 am this morning 😂😂
I didn't know how she could top All too well but it feels like she did. this song is just so packed with feelings and emotions! I can't even, dying in memories
her memories dying along with the hope that he is going to be a "Better Man"
It's incredible, isn't it? How? How do you write something like this at 21/22. It's so moving.
I really just wish that Taylor meets someone who truly undertands and loves her, she deserves it too much
That's. Me 🎉
"Sometimes in the middle of the night, i can feel u again" struck me like a bullet...
Damn been waiting for this for yearssssss 🙌🏻💓🙏🏻
SAME DUDE SAME😫
Haven't we all? ♡
Yesss 😭
Didn’t it leak a few weeks ago though
😯😯
Taylor in 2012: I wish you were a better man
Taylor in 2019 : I'd be the MAN 💕
The relatibility of her songs to things we go through, be it being the third wheel(august), long distance relationship( come back, be here), abusive relationships( begin again), and so much more. It's baffling, she has put every situation into extremely perfect words
When we are in love, it is so hard to see something wrong about the man we love, and it always has to be the worst possible way.
I liked Little Big Town’s version. But I LOVE Taylor’s Version! Somehow the same words mean so much more!
I like both versions
I like this one more, but both version snapped.
when she said "ill probably be better off on my own", i felt that as i'm sobbing listening to red tv 🥲
I sobbed so hard to Ronan
I’m in the middle of an abusive relationship I feel like I can’t get out of, this song hit deep. I don’t even care for country and I’m not really even a fan, but these lyrics hit deep. Thank you for this song.
leave sis
I understand that it's not as easy as they said. But I hope you'll have the courage to leave❤️
I played this for my 86 year old mom, and she started crying BEFORE the chorus! 😭
I literally discovered this song 2 days ago with little big town and was hoping this would be on the new Red album with just her singing it, wow.
You're lucky to get this in two days WE WAITED YEARS
@@raida9516 lol!
I really wish my parents were better people. I've never had my heart broken before, so i didn't think I'd be able to feel the album very deeply, but heartbreaks don't have to be romantic, do they? Gods truly, I wish that things were better, that your love for me was better, that we were better, that all of us were better. And if it's not too much to ask for, i hope one day we get better.
Hey,
I hope you’re doing alright! I’m sad though I’m sure you’ll be lovely when you’ll be a parent!! More power to you :)
I spent all my time under my parents' roof wishing they were better people. When I finally got out of there, I was terribly terribly lost because the thing about toxicity is, you don't know how to be your own person. I'm still struggling to survive, but I'll say this: I haven't once regretted leaving. I wish you well Rae. You'll survive.

The hardest love to Lose is the love that once was beautiful and strong but faded into bitterness and resentmentness and in those cases one holds on while thea other moves on
To my ex bf ..
I discovered this song and i wish you listen to it, idk i was always praying and wishing you to get over your addiction and be a better person " your best version, like you've told me last year ", I've wanted to be there for you in your hardest moments even when you kept pushing me away, unfortunately you weren't there when i needed you the most..
I just wanted to see you happy, and it's hard to admit that i still love you because the damage you caused to me is real...
Hopefully, you will be a better man 💔
Taylor really knows to comfort the broken hearts like us. YES WE DESERVE A BETTER MAN ✨
Taylor has never let me down. She's always been so relevant to my life as a teenager and growing up. I could always relate. I couldn't relate more to another song, as I am now going through divorce with an awful man and a single mom of 4 now. I needed this song.
Sending you strength and love❤️
Sending you love! ❤️
you are so so strong wishing you all the best
✊❤️
How are you doing now?💜
"I gave you my best, and we both know u can't say that..." Felt this...
This reflect exactly how i feel about my first relationship.. at that moment bravest step i was took was run .. now, when i am looking back its was so worth it . Upto date it was the best decision i took... i really wish he was a better man .... hardest decision always lead to beautiful destinations.
It’s been over an hour and I still haven’t finished the album, Taylor really spoiled us with all these songs
i's been two for me, and this is only the second song i've listened to, first was all too well (10 minute version.)
All Too Well, Forever Winter, and Better Man really paint a very specific picture, huh? Amazing story telling skills from this woman, amazing!!!
Finally someone who recognises forever winter 😭
Dont forget theres I almost do comebackbehere and the moment i knew
Jake really broke this woman
Forever Winter 😭😭😭😭 rest in peace Jeff Lang
"I hold onto this pride cause these days it's all I have" 😭 That is such a brilliant line, in my opinion.
"the bravest thing i ever did was run"
Yes the bravest thing you can do in an abusive relationship is to walk away
"I'll hold on to this pride because these days it's all i have" I felt that.
9 years of waiting is so worth. Been longing for this song in Taylor’s voice and finally she released it. I really love this song. The melody and lyrics stuck in my mind.
9 years?
@@agnesn8149 She wrote this song 9 years ago
hoping she would release her performance of Better Man at the super saturday night concert. She sang it in Little Big Town"s version.
@@GreenLeafCorner me too. I prefer the live version of her singing better man than the new one
i'm so happy she released this too. her matured voice really suits this song. she slayed. it's a masterpiece.
The bravest thing i ever did was run......... that hits deeps when you know you have been so scared to make decision's for your life ad just scared to do anything
so happy that she included this song, a masterpiece!
Hey you. Yes you. random person that I will never meet. I truly hope that you will find happiness in life. Today is going to be a great day
