I lost my son one year ago, Easter Sunday 2020. His dad and I met at the hospital, after our son had been in for 5 days with an unknown heart failure and not being able to see him due to COVID, to remove life support. We sat with him for 2 hours, until his precious heart stopped. The next day, we met at the mortuary to complete plans. I live 60 miles away, so had a bit of time to travel. As I started to go around the mountain, I could not stand the quite any longer. Turned on the radio and this song came right on. As I cried, I knew my son gave me something to help me. For the next couple of weeks, every time I got in my car, this came on, letting me know I had a co driver on board. This song is put on every morning now, as I talk to Cody and make sure he knows how much he is loved, he is in a way telling me the same. I cannot begin to tell you how much this song means to me. Cody may have sent this song to me, but Luke, you have a gift that carried my son's help to me. Thank you.
I'm so sorry Brenda that you had yo go through that hell. It's bad enough that you lost your son, but to be kept away from him is horrible except for those couple hours! Your message made me cry. But, I do believe that our loved ones are always with us, you just have to watch for the signs and it sure sounds like you did hear the signs. God Bless
I lost my dad on December 11th this year. While driving down to see him for what would be my last time this song came on my radio I bursted into tears. I watched my dad pass that night. I love you dad.
My dad passed away yesterday after giving lung cancer a fight like no other. We didn't have the best relationship and I have many regrets about that but I would never want anyone else to be my dad ever. He was the strongest man I knew with the biggest heart. He was a truck driver his whole life and we had many memories of our road trips when he was still married to my mom. I saw this country from shot gun in a semi. Driver, you are relieved of all duties. Keep trucking in heaven.
Sorry for your loss but just know your dad loves you . All you have to do is think about him and he will be there. Your father wouldn’t want you to live with regret or sorrow but just tell you to be happy and live your best life. I promise you will see him again
I cry every time I hear this my father is still with me thankfully but he lost his dad and my grandpa when I was only 8 and this reminds us of him so much
I served in the army for 10 1/2 years and have 3 combat deployments under my belt. 6 months after getting out I lost my 9 year old son. It's been 6 years since then and this song hits home. When I hear it I can't stop crying. He was the best of me and the man of the house when I was gone. I will always love you kiddo
Ahh brother this hit me hard I genuinely can't imagine what you have and are going threw my babies are my world keep that chin up buddy things will get easier 💚💚
I was diagnosed with a lung disease almost 2 years ago and this song fit exactly how I wanted my kids to remember me. And then I lost my step Father in January 2023 and this song helped me to get through his loss. Thank you so much Luke.
my dad died yesterday. he was a veteran, and this song reminds me of him. im heartbroken. if you still have your dad, hold him close. tell him you love him.
Your dad will always be with you and you can still hear his advice in your head and you ALWAYS will. Losing your dad is difficult no matter if you are young or old because your dad is your rock and your comfort for all those difficult times but remember that he taught you life lessons and remember them to honor your dad's work. The sadness does go away as time passes. Hell, I am 60 years old and still miss my dad but my thoughts of him are always happy and pleasant. There are times where I know he is right next to me. Chin up Kenzie, your world will be okay in a while but just a little different.
Jimmy Page especially with all the shootings in America you don’t know when the last time you see your dad. Heck with the New Jersey one today that could have been the last time you saw your friend/dad 😥😥
I’ve listened to this song a thousand times and it makes me cry every time. I miss my father so much, if you still have your parents love them endlessly.
Lost my dad 4 years ago and when he passed , the night before we got into a fight and the last words outta my mouth were fuck you . And that's haunted me for years now . Because I couldn't tell him I'm sorry and I love him , because the next day he passed In a construction accident 😭. But the first time I heard this song I cried , now it gives me a feeling like my dad is here with me sometimes . I'm just glad I have my momma ❤️
What a beautiful song. I've listened to it a thousand times and I get choked up every time! I lost my dad 3 years ago. I miss him so much! Thank you Luke! ♥
Losing my dad on the 4th of this month was the worst thing ive ever been thru ... I cant help but crack open a 12 pack and put this song on replay, It helps ease the pain
I lost my father when I was 16 (last year). He was my best friend, and I miss him every single day. My only hope is in Jesus, that one day ill see him again in heaven. But that still doesnt make me miss him any less. He never got to see me get taller than him...
Lost my dad last night at 9:40PM it wasn’t an easy thing to see. He lived a good life. This song brings comfort. Thank you Luke for making such a great song.
I'm here after just losing my father this morning. I'm stationed across the country and had to say goodbye over the phone. As much as hearing this song tears me apart, it is absolutely perfect, and I know my dad is no longer suffering. #RIPDad
Lost my dad Wed Jan 24 2024. This song already had me on the edge of my emotions while he was still alive. But dammit if this doesn't hit so hard now that he's gone....
So sorry for your loss....just lost my mom on December 26...I know she is with Jesus and beholding her Saviors face and Dad is there too....and one day my faith shall become sight and I will behold my Saviors face and mom and dad will be there!!!
This song was played at my ex husband funeral july 10th 2020 for our daughter who is 14 he was a Army veteran who lost a battle to ptsd. Fly high Specialist Weidler
Lost my daddy 10-24-04😔 Yesterday would of been his birthday. I'm 66 and not a day went by I talked to my daddy on the phone. This song is so heart wrenching, but I love Luke and this song.
This song is the few that can really bring me to tears 😢 I’ve always had a pretty rocky relationship with my father, both good and bad times but it just makes me think of if he ever left, and all the times he would check up on me before he left to work really early in the morning and me not knowing at the time how hard he had to work to make sure I had food to eat and clothes to wear
Please go to the hospital before you do anything. This is coming from someone who still struggles with major depression and has seriously attempted suicide once. You have kids. Stay here for them. Get well for them. Please. They NEED you.
Hug him, tell him you love him cause when they are gone it sucks. I was three hours away when I got the call that my dad was passing away. I got there in time to say goodbye. We played this song at his funeral I miss that man so much and wish I could still talk to him and give him a hug.
Don't ever miss an opportunity to talk or see your dad. I did and that pain never goes away. I lost mine three years ago. I was driving to see him and was 4 hours away when he passed. I didn't make it
@@theottinger1093I just lost my dad this fathers day morning he was coming home on his motorcycle with a pizza and never made it back after 37 years of riding he got hit killed instantly never got to say bye
I lost my dad on Saturday. This has been on repeat since he passed. I will always find comfort in Luke's voice and that my father is around me at all times.💔
I lost my dad last August. This August will be a year since he's been gone. 😢 My sister played this song at his funeral. It was the hardest day burying my dad that day. I always cherish his memories.
My father passed away in January. He was only 49. Him and my mom adopted me when I was 17. He had a muscle disease but was still the strongest person I knew. Never let a moment go by without telling your parents you love them. Miss him every day❤️
I dont get to see my dad that often and I haven't seen him in a month and I'm a daddy's girl so it hurts. I try to text him when I can without getting in trouble with my mom and step dad.
I lost my Father in January from f*^king Covid-19 he was only 66 years old and had just retired after working his entire life. He was my hero my best friend. The strongest man I ever knew I drove him to the hospital. Never thinking he would be the last time we rode in the car together 14 days later I was on my knees, praying to God, less than 8 feet from him through a glass wall, watching him take his last breath, completely helpless and wishing I could do something. Everything I’ve done in my wife has been because he taught me how to be the man I am I miss him every single day. This song really hits home. Thank you Luke I can only pray that I can be half the father he was to my four year old son. I just wish I could call him for advice. Does it ever get easier?
I’m sorry for your loss. I truly am, I can’t say I lost a parent but I myself am trying to figure out how to be a step father for my girlfriend’s 8 year old son. I never had my father around so I never know if I’m doing the right thing or not. It drives me insane because I don’t have anything to judge off of. You got this man. Keep doing what you’re doing. You’ll be fine. Raise your son the exact same way your dad raised you. You turned out great so there’s no reason he shouldn’t either. You got this! I’m in your corner! Keep pushing forwards. Dig your feet in and push! You got this!
@@infernogaming7923trust me as a father, none of us know fully what we are doing. I have four kids 11, 9, 4 & 2. The fact your stepping up for your girlfriends child and the fact that your worried your doing it right proves you are a great person. My only advice is to build memories and that doesn’t mean spending a tone of money just doing things together. I had a double heart attack this year and I know my time is limited. Im going to try and make up for the time I wasted being at work more than I really needed etc rather than spending it with my kids. Keep doing what your doing.
I lost my dad at eight years old and my mom in 2020 sadly it don’t get easier wishing and imagining things or how things could of went thats what gets me
Sorry for your loss bro, I can't imagine how ruined I'll be when that day come for me :( Stay strong but don't be afraid to show emotions, men can and do cry FYI ;)
Unfortunately he'll be a legend because he will die of heart failure, diabetes or coronary artery disease. We don't need another Elvis Presley. Please take care of yourself.
Sounds like 90's Country. That was some of the best just go and play some Tracy Byrd "A Little Love" or Collin Raye "Little Rock" and you will know what I mean.
To everyone who sees this video, forgive your parents and return your father. Your father represents Christ on earth even though they are not good examples. The forces of the evil want to to think that your father is wrong but they know that resentment of your father will cause you to be unlike your self. Forgive and your father in heaven will forgive you and you will have peach here on earth. It’s a spiritual battle and if we love our fathers no matter what the crime we win have peace and lead the way world.
I’ve listened to this song about eight times in a row and I have balled my eyes out every time. I still have my dad with me and we are pretty close but it always hits me in the heart when I think about the day that I will no longer have him. My heart truly goes out to anyone that has been through anything like that. But no matter what you have been through you can get through it stay strong but not to strong because it is okay to have feelings because that is what makes us human.
Protip from someone who lost their dad, record them. Get their voice on tape. Do it now because I got that advice and thought i had plenty of time to do it, but he died super suddenly like 3 months after that. Missing their voice is the worst
@@rosemarayye3804 completely agree!!! Lost mine on April 9th, have 2 videos of him speaking and moving and that's the best and so hard at the same time .
@@thatproudlilmama My sister found a video that her husband took of their son when he was a month old and in the background my dad is on the phone with me and it is so near my heart
I was 19 years old when I signed my name on the dotted line to serve my country i will never forget that day my dad dropped me off at the recruiting office i saw him burst into tears as he drove away i love you pops I'm doing okay i love you and I'm proud to be following in your footsteps❤
My Daughter just sent me a link to this song and said Dad this reminds me of you ,I love you. I'm not a country music fan but this song made me cry. Wow.....
I'm 26 years old, and discovered this song a couple years ago. My Dad died right in front of me when i was 15. I've listened to this song countless times now, and i can never get through it without crying
I feel you there brother. Happened to me too. I get told this a lot so figure I’ll tel you the same. Your dad would be proud of the man you became. Hoping your doing alright
My dad died when I was 15, after he died a part of me died too, it was only 4 days after my birthday that we knew he died, and when I’m at my most low I try to listen to this song to get the tears out, I’m 17 now and I still miss my dad.
I lost my father on September 13th 2019. This song is sure helping me through this tough time. Thank you Luke. (I appreciate all the kind words and my condolences to you all, try to remember the good times with the ones we lost)
I'm so sorry that's really tough.. mine died from complications from a stroke. It gets better that pit in ur stomach ever goes away though. Praying for y'all 🙏
I lost my dad 4.5 yrs ago from a heart attack. I remember the moment my mom told me he was gone. This song just hits me different when I listen to it while trying to sleep. I love this song especially when listening to it while going to visit him. Thank you, Luke!
I lost my dad when I was 15, he was depressed and drank too much and his liver failed. We had time with him before he went but we could only say so many words to each other. This was 3 years ago. They gave my dad 6 months to live and within two weeks he was brain dead. It happened so fast. I could just see this void in my dads eyes that he had already passed. I couldn’t say to him what I wanted to say. He was gone before i knew it. I wish I had said that I love him more then anything and how much I would miss him. I think about my dad everyday. for a long time I hadn’t processed his death. Now 3 years later it feels like I’m finally strong enough to heal. This song. This song right here speaks it all. The moment he starts singing I can’t hold it in. Your father is your father no matter what, and when you lose a loved one they are always still with you; whatever you believe in doesn’t matter, you feel them. I want to be the best man I can be for my dad and it helps give me a purpose, and if he was here today I know he would be proud of me. I would give any amount of blood just to have another conversation with him. When I become a husband and a father I want to be the best I can be and I look forward to those roles. I want to be there for my kids when they need their father. I give my thanks to luke for creating this song and he has all my blessings for the healings he’s brought to millions of people. You’re an Angel.
This song hits me so hard, lost my father over a month ago, I was at work today and this song came on, I had to take 10, no one understood why and I don't expect them to, my dad made me the man I am and I never forget that
I lost my dad a little over a year ago, in October 2020. Still can't get over it. Even though I'm 30 years old, tears are still coming in... Thank you, Luke. This song is an absolute masterpiece, it has soul and a really important message to love our parents, while they are still here, 'cause you'll never know when it's time to say goobdye.
This songs make me wish my father was half decent but makes me realize how much of a better father I am now because of it. Absolutely love this song and listening to this with my daughters brings tears to my eyes. Awesome song luke.
Brandon Dale yea Im 17 and this week has been horrible I broke my wrist had a gun pulled on me and that guy wrecked into my truck and yesterday I figured out my grandpa has cancer and the girl I have been dating for 3 years left me today
We all learn from what we don't have and what we didn't have then... Just remember at times things will get hard but your a great father for just being there and understanding your child.
I’m 48 and my dad left us when I was 10 and this song hits me hard because I wish I had a dad that I could have had these feelings for, but I have 9yr old twins and my kids know I’ll always be there for them.
This was a double whammy for me because 1. My son lost his dad to an OD when he was only 3 yrs old. Active duty army. 2. less than a year later I lost a relationship with my dad (what little I actually had) due to his actions. So this song gets me. Love those kiddos the best you can!
On 10-11-2020 in the middle of the night my parents house caught on fire. I lost both my mom and dad, my beautiful 18 yr old daughter and my sister that night. We had all 4 funerals at the same time and I chose this song to be played for my dad. I listen to it everyday and I cry everytime I hear it. Losing 4 people at the same time that I love and was so close to is something that I hope no other family ever has to go through. I miss them all so much and I don't think I will ever get over it. Please say a prayer for my family.
i am so sorry for your loss! ive had one at a time but 4? thats insane and I dont mean it in any insensitive way! i personally do not pray but i will keep you and them in my thoughts tonight❤
@@gavinsoiett4252 hang in there bud. My parents were divorced when I was young but I had a stepdad that was amazing. He was an amazing man. I was so lucky to have a dad like him. Sending you prayers of strength 🙏🙏 🙏 🙏
I was deployed when this song was released. It was one of the most painful moments of my life when my wife sent it to me. I could not stop thinking about my kids. It was also the singular moment I knew I was coming back alive. 4 years later here I am at 10:00 at night reliving that moment.
I’m so afraid of the days when I’ll lose my parents…. Songs like this make me cry when I remember that one day I will lose them and I can’t do anything to change that 💔😭
It’s a pain that never heals it just gets easier to keep going once you work out all of your grief . I know I’m trying been a year ma died. I can’t shake it still but I know she’s here with me.
It’s hard but it can bring something beautiful out inside of you if that makes any sense.. losing my dad at 19 only made me realize that I have to be the best man I can be and I have choices to make every single day to be a good man. Just always remember it’s inevitable it will happen but it’s a part of this life we live in
I lost both my parents in the last 8 months. My biggest suggestion love them. Talk to them. Thank them let them know how much they mean to you. Because no matter how much you do you will always ask yourself when there gone did I do enough
Never had a song that hit me so hard. Thought I was a tough guy having lost my father 17 years ago. Never cried though I tried.. Just one song, and it all came back to me. Bawled my heart out. Finally had my closure, thanks to you my friend Luke.
I can relate. I lost my dad at 10 years old in the year 2000. It's been a rough 19 years sometimes, but I dont cry about it. Except for when this damn tune plays. I love it though.
I was in a Bible study we had just talked about the Last Supper and I was feeling sad and depressed. As I was sitting in the car waiting to go home this song came on and it made me think of Jesus specking to the apostles. I've loved it ever since.
I lost mine in may an I still lost kid I’m 28 my best friend ever like they said stay strong. Cry if you need to. Let him live on thru you bud. Much love!
I'm sorry for your loss... I lost my father 26 yrs ago at the same age ... Just know he is there with you ... Stay Strong ... It does get easier ... but He will always be with you
We lost my father yesterday after a short battle with cancer. This song was the first thing that came to my mind. Thank you for summing up so much emotion in one song.
I feel ya, but with my grandma's. Both of my grandfathers died. And one of my grandma's was a huge part in my life. Best. Cook. Ever., a great person for advice, to tell things, and to be around. Hopefully she stays until 100, she is 75
I lost my dad when I was only 4 years old, I found him dead in his my mom’s bed. I think I may be traumatized, he had a heart attack in the middle of the night. Sometimes whenever I get on the football field I feel like he’s with me, I pray to him every night, telling him how much I love him and I miss him. And then my mom basically went crazy for a while, but she got mental help after a long time. Just know to cherish every moment of life (especially with the ones you love), because tomorrow isn’t guaranteed. God bless everyone and stay safe 💙💙
Praying for you tonight before I head to bed. Lost my grandparents when I was 13, and when I was 16, they'd raised me since I was three. Miss them everyday man, found both of them gone just a few years apart. It ain't easy, but doing good is the best thing for their memory. Bless you bud.
i lost my mom when i was 4.. i was in the car when she died.. my dad had to raise 3 boys on his own.. i still wonder how my life would be different if she had lived.. i feel your pain... im in my 50's now and i still have have moments.. CHERISH EVERY MOMENT.. God bless you.. it gets better!
@@DingleDobber You made my day. I’m sorry that you lost your grandparents at such a young age, I never got to see my grandmother in my life. I’ll pray for you too. God bless you. 💙
I know what you are going through I lost my husband in 2009 he was in a truck accident he was my best friend and the love of my life.when I have a bad day I think of all the good times we had and the funny things he did to make me laugh God bless you and stay strong for your mom
Facts. I was on the expressway this came on the radio after work, I was sucking back tears an punching it to get home to my boys, then we started clearing closets for monster one at time. I promised them they won't be back ever...
To everyone who's reading this losing your father or a loved one I'm so so sorry for your loss. Live everyday like it's your last. I can't imagine how you feel. Keep your head up.
It's not easy each day I feel as if tho I'm is a dream and I can't seem to wake up I lost my dad back in November of 2018 on the 27th it was the hardest thing that I had to go thur in my life I miss him like crazy every day of my LIFE i can't wait to meet up with him one day in glory in heaven.
I never had a dad So this songs makes me ball my eyes out even more because the only father I ever had best my mom because he did not want me to be born so he tried to kill my mom to kill me before I was even born. My mom never got with anybody else ever again because she was scared of herself getting beat again. All of you had dads at one point, and it just makes me cry that I never got that chance. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I lost my dad 10 years ago in a drunk driving accident. He was only 29 and I was 7. I'm now about to be 18 in 2 weeks and this song along with Simple Man, which he wrote in my babybook, bring me to tears every time
Prayers for you brother! Losing a love one is the hardest thing in life to do let alone a parent or a child! I lost my daughter 3 years ago man! Just hang in there brother I’ll pray for you, and your family
I lost my dad 4 weeks ago. It has been so tough not being able to call him on the phone and hear his voice. He was my rock and my confidant. I've listened to this song countless times and it brings me to tears every time. I miss my dad so much but I know that I will see him again.
I never thought anyone wrote such beautiful songs about their dad , keep it up feel like I've watch 60 million times and still cry like I was boy again
I'm 38 years old, married and have 5 kids but I'm dreading the day my dad goes. That man is the epitome of hard work, and moral values. I love you dad.
Dedicated this to my stepson who lost his father. He's a good kid and his dad was a good man that didn't deserve to leave this world the way he did. It brought us all to tears. I love you Ryan Jordan Esparza aka my lil buddy. Happy Birthday Mr. Ruben Esparza.
Can't hit like enough in response to that comment. Yesterday was 28 yrs. Thank God, I'm doing fine, loving wife and 3 sons... My biggest regret in life, my father never met my boys.
Same here . Lost my dad to a bad accident in construction and the first time I heard this the flood gates opened especially the last part of the some when he say"I thought I'd never see the day I had to say goodbye" like that hit deep
Same man I didn't even get to say goodbye to him and it kills me every single day what id give up just to have one more conversation I'd do anything for him to meet his grandaugher he would have loved her
I lost my mom when I was 10 years old I really miss her the more she got sick the more I got closer she went to the hospital on Christmas Eve and thanksgiving she got me a necklace and I love it so much

100% true story. Today I had to say goodbye to my father, an incredible person who had such an influence on my life. He has at most 24 hours left to live. I drove an hour to his care facility this morning and about 3 minutes before I pull into the parking lot, I flipped on the radio….and lo and behold, this Luke Coombs song. It spoke to me with such power and left me in tears before even stepping out of the car. God was telling me something. Thank you.
I’m a cop who works the graveyard shift. Heard this song and thought of my dad and how he protected me. I have a 3 year old girl and 6 year old boy. I couldn’t leave my kids last night for work so I called out to be with them. Glad I did.
He is easily better than Luke Bryan. Don't know what people see in that guy. His twang in the vocal chords it must be or something. I don't even really like new country music, but this song and very few others make an exception.
I lost my grandpa yesterday. He was my bestfriend. He always told me that when Jesus calls him home, he’ll always be right here with me. He would tell me how he was never scared of knowing one day he’d go home, because he would never leave us. It’s scary without him, but he’s always in my heart. Always protecting me and watching over me. Thank you pops, thank you for being the best grandpa anyone could ever ask for. I love you, till we meet again
I lost my best friend, my granddaddy, 36 years ago,seems like yesterday and I stil cry over losing him... he taught me how to be a father since my own didn't bother. Thanks to him i am my son's best friend... Thanks v granddaddy...i love and miss you everyday
Best Song Ever...My Dad lost his battle with Diabetes and Heart Disease Almost 12 years ago, and I remember it like it was yesterday...He passed Away at home and I remember as we waited for the Coroner to show up, I layed next to him and cried my heart out on his shoulder...When the Coroner arrived, I remember running over to the door and locking it so they could not come in and take him ( I remember thinking of them as the "Monsters)...My family members had to pry me away from the door...R.I.P. Daddy...I Love and miss you always...😭😭😭😭😭
I am so moved by your words. I’m 54 and my dad passed away on my 52nd Birthday. As he was in hospice and still breathing, I whispered, “Daddy, you know my birthday is tomorrow, I need you to hold on at least til then.” He passed away the morning of my birthday at 3:30 am. God bless you and your family.
Currently losing my father to cancer my brother sent me this to listen, crying like a baby. You’re gonna be okay Dad. I love you thank you for giving me life and for loving my children the way you do 🤍🙏🏼✝️
I always cry when that last verse starts. I don't want to imagine a life without my dad. I dread the day he goes but until then I'll tell him every day that I love him. Thanks daddy for always being my hero 🥰
that's good. Your parents won't be around forever and if they're good ones you'll want to cherish them as much as you can. Mine passed 2 1/2 years ago. I always cry with the last verse also. Take care and God bless. :)
Thanks to this song my 4 year old son and I finally have words to express how we feel when he “doesn’t want to go from me” when he has to go for shared custody. Thank you Luke Combs for giving us a special song to sing to each other when we’re sad about leaving. It dries the tears right away while we still express our feelings.
For a year my dad spent alot of time in and out of the hospital and every time I was going to see him this song came on and brought me to tears. He lost his battle January and this song still brings me to tears thinking about him. Miss him so much everyday...
This is the only thing that will calm my daughter down, she’s a year old and when she throws a fit I put this on and she stops as soon as she hears the first beat ❤️ it’s been the only song to calm her down since it came out! She loves you and all of your music!!
My dads in the navy this made me cry and almost made me put my car in a ditch at 45 mph. I was fine only hydroplaned the car and I recovered. I still cried after the song for about 20 minutes.
I'll pray he comes home safe. My son-in-law just came back from Afghanistan at the end of October. Hopefully he's done with deployments. My daughter stays a nervous wreck while he's over there.
Matt B he has wrote most of his own music. This song, Refridgerator door and one other from the EP were Co-written with a guy who’s name I’ve forgotten.
Praying for your son for a safe tour! And also prayers for you as well. 💙I know it's hard but he will be back. God bless you all and thank him for his service. ❤
From a dad who doesn't get to see his kids everyday this song hits home on soooo many levels , thanks Luke for reading my mind and putting it into words 👍🎯💯
Stepbro-Amon Dude, there are literally so many reasons as to why someone might not get to see their kids everyday. He could have a career in the military, or a commercial driver, a doctor; I mean, the list goes on. Nobody really ever talks about the sacrifices a father makes to make a better life for his family. Don’t be so quick to judge or assume, my dude
I lost my son one year ago, Easter Sunday 2020. His dad and I met at the hospital, after our son had been in for 5 days with an unknown heart failure and not being able to see him due to COVID, to remove life support. We sat with him for 2 hours, until his precious heart stopped. The next day, we met at the mortuary to complete plans. I live 60 miles away, so had a bit of time to travel. As I started to go around the mountain, I could not stand the quite any longer. Turned on the radio and this song came right on. As I cried, I knew my son gave me something to help me. For the next couple of weeks, every time I got in my car, this came on, letting me know I had a co driver on board. This song is put on every morning now, as I talk to Cody and make sure he knows how much he is loved, he is in a way telling me the same. I cannot begin to tell you how much this song means to me. Cody may have sent this song to me, but Luke, you have a gift that carried my son's help to me. Thank you.
I’m so sorry😢
That so sad to hear, your son will always be with you, and i believe hes in a better place.🙏
@Brayden Thomas ??
I'm so sorry Brenda that you had yo go through that hell. It's bad enough that you lost your son, but to be kept away from him is horrible except for those couple hours! Your message made me cry. But, I do believe that our loved ones are always with us, you just have to watch for the signs and it sure sounds like you did hear the signs. God Bless
Oh !!! It's so sad dear just pray for him to almighty God. Be strong cause u should know he loves you so much
I lost my dad on December 11th this year. While driving down to see him for what would be my last time this song came on my radio I bursted into tears. I watched my dad pass that night. I love you dad.
He was a good man
Thank you both
Lost mine on Aug 2nd I'm sorry for your loss
I'm so so sorry for your loss!! Love and prayers for you!
So sorry. I lost mine in November. Super hard especially when you’re close. Hang that head high.
Its March 2024, let's see how many legends are listening to this incredible song ❤
I’m listening
right here
Here 🇮🇪
Yes sir!!🇮🇳
I am, (sniff) and I wish there were more wise people in my life.
My dad passed away yesterday after giving lung cancer a fight like no other. We didn't have the best relationship and I have many regrets about that but I would never want anyone else to be my dad ever. He was the strongest man I knew with the biggest heart. He was a truck driver his whole life and we had many memories of our road trips when he was still married to my mom. I saw this country from shot gun in a semi. Driver, you are relieved of all duties. Keep trucking in heaven.
Don't regret it he's watching you he wants you to be happy
Sorry for your loss but just know your dad loves you . All you have to do is think about him and he will be there. Your father wouldn’t want you to live with regret or sorrow but just tell you to be happy and live your best life. I promise you will see him again
So sorry.
We losses our Dad August 20, 2024. We watched him took his last breath.
I lost my dad 2 days ago. This 30 year old little boy is in tears right now. Thanks Luke. This song is exactly what I needed.
Joshua Boc. That's so unfortunate
I’m sorry for your lost I’m sure he is smiling down over you and I’m sure he is proud of you
Joshua Boc shit, just started crying after reading that.. I hope you feel better. You’ll get over it
I lost my pops last October . This song brings me closer to him
You're not alone my dad passed April 1, 2020
This 31yr old just ugly cried at a gas pump . Sending love your way. Head up
I'm not ashamed to say the first time I heard this I started crying.
I can't listen and not cry....and my Dads still alive
This is a deep Song
Ive cried 15 times😃😃😁
I love LUKE hes the best
He really touches the soul
Me too
Same
I cry every time I hear this my father is still with me thankfully but he lost his dad and my grandpa when I was only 8 and this reminds us of him so much
I served in the army for 10 1/2 years and have 3 combat deployments under my belt. 6 months after getting out I lost my 9 year old son. It's been 6 years since then and this song hits home. When I hear it I can't stop crying. He was the best of me and the man of the house when I was gone. I will always love you kiddo
I can’t imagine. Big hugs.
wow i’m so sorry to hear that. thank you for your service
Sorry for your families loss I lost my son too this hits home for me to meet them on the other side 🙂
Thank you for your service, God bless you man
Ahh brother this hit me hard I genuinely can't imagine what you have and are going threw my babies are my world keep that chin up buddy things will get easier 💚💚
I was diagnosed with a lung disease almost 2 years ago and this song fit exactly how I wanted my kids to remember me. And then I lost my step Father in January 2023 and this song helped me to get through his loss. Thank you so much Luke.
My dad died of lung cancer a year ago I was 16 and he was 60 I miss him so much
@@tjclack6740 I am sorry to hear that. I hope that the time that you had with your Dad left you with good memories
I hope everything is going better for you. Sending prayer's to you.👃👃
I pray you are still holding on and making memories with your children
@@tjclack6740 GOD BLESS you brother ❤ so horrible how the world can be so cold to us sometimes.
my dad died yesterday. he was a veteran, and this song reminds me of him. im heartbroken. if you still have your dad, hold him close. tell him you love him.
Everything is going to be okay, keep your head held high
@@jdproductions4078 thank you. its hard as fuck, but i know he'd want me to keep going.
I lost my dad may 1 st. Keep your head up buddy
Your dad will always be with you and you can still hear his advice in your head and you ALWAYS will. Losing your dad is difficult no matter if you are young or old because your dad is your rock and your comfort for all those difficult times but remember that he taught you life lessons and remember them to honor your dad's work. The sadness does go away as time passes. Hell, I am 60 years old and still miss my dad but my thoughts of him are always happy and pleasant. There are times where I know he is right next to me. Chin up Kenzie, your world will be okay in a while but just a little different.
@@nicolepielle So sorry for your loss.
My heart goes out to everyone who lost their father, I'm fortunate enough to still have my dad but this song still hits me hard 😢
Jimmy Page especially with all the shootings in America you don’t know when the last time you see your dad. Heck with the New Jersey one today that could have been the last time you saw your friend/dad 😥😥
Every time my dad and I sing this song I get tears
I just became a dad and this puts me on the verge of tears every god damn time. Just thinking about my little dude not having me around kills me.
Mr Edge yea something I try not to think about in the futer
Lost mine 2 months before he saw his granddaughter. Broke me. This song hurts but also comforts me.
I’ve listened to this song a thousand times and it makes me cry every time. I miss my father so much, if you still have your parents love them endlessly.
Lost my dad 4 years ago and when he passed , the night before we got into a fight and the last words outta my mouth were fuck you . And that's haunted me for years now . Because I couldn't tell him I'm sorry and I love him , because the next day he passed In a construction accident 😭. But the first time I heard this song I cried , now it gives me a feeling like my dad is here with me sometimes . I'm just glad I have my momma ❤️
Me to hun! Cry like a baby! EVERY time
I still have my parents but u never know when you won't so I cherish them every day. I'm sorry for ur lost

FoRt Snackz Omg I’m so sorry no one deserves that
I lost my father when I was 16 (last year). He was my best friend, and I miss him every single day. My only hope is in Jesus, that one day ill see him again in heaven. But that still doesnt make me miss him any less. He never got to see me get taller than him...
He’d be proud of you man
Dang Man I'm sorry bub he's proud of u man he's looking down on u and he wants u to do well in life
praying for you ❤ don't worry, you'll see him again
Noah Worley it’s not a hope man, it’s an absolution. Have faith, because it’s the truth.
Noah Worley praying for comfort and peace
Lost my dad last night at 9:40PM it wasn’t an easy thing to see. He lived a good life. This song brings comfort. Thank you Luke for making such a great song.
❤
condolence sir
I'm here after just losing my father this morning. I'm stationed across the country and had to say goodbye over the phone. As much as hearing this song tears me apart, it is absolutely perfect, and I know my dad is no longer suffering. #RIPDad

Lost my daddy 10-24-04😔 Yesterday would of been his birthday. I'm 66 and not a day went by I talked to my daddy on the phone. This song is so heart wrenching, but I love Luke and this song.
Barbara Cordell God Bless.
I’m so sorry
This song is the few that can really bring me to tears 😢 I’ve always had a pretty rocky relationship with my father, both good and bad times but it just makes me think of if he ever left, and all the times he would check up on me before he left to work really early in the morning and me not knowing at the time how hard he had to work to make sure I had food to eat and clothes to wear
I Lost My Dad In October It Was Painful And It Still Is
My dad is sick dieing as I listen to this song, I believe he will always be by my side.
Thanks Luke
Wow this comment hit hard I’m dealing with the same thing my dad has cancer and it’s tough keep ur head up

Sorry to hear that. Stay strong and keep living life.

This song literally saved my life. Depression sucks, but This song made me think of my kids and not just me. Thankyou @lukecombs
Keep pushing brother... your awesome!
Please go to the hospital before you do anything. This is coming from someone who still struggles with major depression and has seriously attempted suicide once. You have kids. Stay here for them. Get well for them. Please. They NEED you.
Comment here if you need to talk. I’ll talk to you. I’m serious.
@@samphillips897 thankyou
@@jackiemamamill2280 Thanks x
I haven't lost my Dad yet, but just the thought terrifies me. Such a beautiful song, makes me cry every time i listen to it.
Hug him, tell him you love him cause when they are gone it sucks. I was three hours away when I got the call that my dad was passing away. I got there in time to say goodbye. We played this song at his funeral I miss that man so much and wish I could still talk to him and give him a hug.
@user-fz7ozww4j same dude, but trust me when it happens, I'll miss him. I can't imagine losing him.
Don't ever miss an opportunity to talk or see your dad. I did and that pain never goes away. I lost mine three years ago. I was driving to see him and was 4 hours away when he passed. I didn't make it
same
@@theottinger1093I just lost my dad this fathers day morning he was coming home on his motorcycle with a pizza and never made it back after 37 years of riding he got hit killed instantly never got to say bye
I lost my dad on Saturday. This has been on repeat since he passed. I will always find comfort in Luke's voice and that my father is around me at all times.💔
Yes, ur dad loves you and will always always be there for you, much love and things will get better
Stay strong dear .
I lost my dad last August. This August will be a year since he's been gone. 😢 My sister played this song at his funeral. It was the hardest day burying my dad that day. I always cherish his memories.
My father passed away in January. He was only 49. Him and my mom adopted me when I was 17. He had a muscle disease but was still the strongest person I knew. Never let a moment go by without telling your parents you love them. Miss him every day❤️
I'm so sorry for your loss I'll pray for you
I’m so sorry
I dont get to see my dad that often and I haven't seen him in a month and I'm a daddy's girl so it hurts. I try to text him when I can without getting in trouble with my mom and step dad.
Like my dad
🙏🏽
This song has been such a comfort to me since losing my dad. Thank you for all you do in music❤️ Rest In Peace dad, May 1st 1958- August 14th 2019
Kimberly Arbeau I understand I lost my dad in june
Rest in Peace...
Sorry for your lose I recently lost dog
🙏
Depressed Teenager I am sorry for your loss too❤️ hang onto your memories, hard days will come but your dad is always with you and so is mine.
I understand the feeling cause I lost my dad 10 years ago on Father’s Day so this brings back good memories of my dad.
I lost my Father in January from f*^king Covid-19 he was only 66 years old and had just retired after working his entire life. He was my hero my best friend. The strongest man I ever knew I drove him to the hospital. Never thinking he would be the last time we rode in the car together 14 days later I was on my knees, praying to God, less than 8 feet from him through a glass wall, watching him take his last breath, completely helpless and wishing I could do something. Everything I’ve done in my wife has been because he taught me how to be the man I am I miss him every single day. This song really hits home. Thank you Luke I can only pray that I can be half the father he was to my four year old son. I just wish I could call him for advice. Does it ever get easier?
I’m sorry for your loss. I truly am, I can’t say I lost a parent but I myself am trying to figure out how to be a step father for my girlfriend’s 8 year old son. I never had my father around so I never know if I’m doing the right thing or not. It drives me insane because I don’t have anything to judge off of. You got this man. Keep doing what you’re doing. You’ll be fine. Raise your son the exact same way your dad raised you. You turned out great so there’s no reason he shouldn’t either. You got this! I’m in your corner! Keep pushing forwards. Dig your feet in and push! You got this!
💔hurts for you.
I understand, so painful!!
@@infernogaming7923trust me as a father, none of us know fully what we are doing. I have four kids 11, 9, 4 & 2. The fact your stepping up for your girlfriends child and the fact that your worried your doing it right proves you are a great person. My only advice is to build memories and that doesn’t mean spending a tone of money just doing things together.
I had a double heart attack this year and I know my time is limited. Im going to try and make up for the time I wasted being at work more than I really needed etc rather than spending it with my kids.
Keep doing what your doing.
I lost my dad at eight years old and my mom in 2020 sadly it don’t get easier wishing and imagining things or how things could of went thats what gets me
Jesus saved me
My daddy told me he loved me for the very last time on this day last year. He gained his wings the next night. 💔
He is watching over you no matter what...that's your dad he sure proud of you ....my condelences ❤❤❤
Thoughts and prayers rr stay strong ❤
I’m sorry
On November 1st 2018 my dad died it's sad when someone you share memories with becomes a memory 💔
I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm literally tearing up because I'm afraid of losing my dad. Especially with what's going on now.
This song came on on my moms Radio when we were following my dads hearse to the cemetery and I broke down with tears
Me too
I'm sorry
Rest in peace to your dad ❤️ love from Australia
Sorry for your loss bro, I can't imagine how ruined I'll be when that day come for me :( Stay strong but don't be afraid to show emotions, men can and do cry FYI ;)
Sad
Luke combs is going to be a legend country singer
He already is
He already is son
Took the words out of my mouth @justin earley
Unfortunately he'll be a legend because he will die of heart failure, diabetes or coronary artery disease. We don't need another Elvis Presley. Please take care of yourself.
@@justinearley2952 😊
I just lost my dad to a drug overdose last week, this song really helps me feel closer to him. ❤
I’m sorry.
Is it me or is Luke Combs bringing back more traditional, aka real country
I think he is he kinda did the same thing as Conway Twitty's song called My job
i think so to
@@timmymidgley4706 That's what I was thinking too. Also Sawyer Brown's The Walk is kind of similar.
Him and Cody Johnson both. Amazing country artist.
Sounds like 90's Country. That was some of the best just go and play some Tracy Byrd "A Little Love" or Collin Raye "Little Rock" and you will know what I mean.
My heart goes out to everyone who's lost their father, I don't know what I'm gonna do when I lose mine he's the strength inside my heart
I feel this😞😭😭😪🙏
It will change your life for ever my daddy has been gone for 5 years so to endocarditis a heart infection.

Me too. I lost my dad 17 years ago every time i hear the song i jus burst all again.
Hard losing loved ones
To everyone who sees this video, forgive your parents and return your father. Your father represents Christ on earth even though they are not good examples. The forces of the evil want to to think that your father is wrong but they know that resentment of your father will cause you to be unlike your self. Forgive and your father in heaven will forgive you and you will have peach here on earth. It’s a spiritual battle and if we love our fathers no matter what the crime we win have peace and lead the way world.
Very true words, I have forgiven my father and we have a great relationship. I am also a father and these words will help me remember who I represent.
Please include your mother
Thank you for writing this comment🥰🥰🥰
I’ve listened to this song about eight times in a row and I have balled my eyes out every time. I still have my dad with me and we are pretty close but it always hits me in the heart when I think about the day that I will no longer have him. My heart truly goes out to anyone that has been through anything like that. But no matter what you have been through you can get through it stay strong but not to strong because it is okay to have feelings because that is what makes us human.
Literally same. Had to let him know he was on my mind
Same here man it's hard to think about it
Protip from someone who lost their dad, record them. Get their voice on tape. Do it now because I got that advice and thought i had plenty of time to do it, but he died super suddenly like 3 months after that. Missing their voice is the worst
@@rosemarayye3804 completely agree!!! Lost mine on April 9th, have 2 videos of him speaking and moving and that's the best and so hard at the same time .
@@thatproudlilmama My sister found a video that her husband took of their son when he was a month old and in the background my dad is on the phone with me and it is so near my heart

I feel you there brother. Happened to me too. I get told this a lot so figure I’ll tel you the same. Your dad would be proud of the man you became. Hoping your doing alright
My dad died when I was 15, after he died a part of me died too, it was only 4 days after my birthday that we knew he died, and when I’m at my most low I try to listen to this song to get the tears out, I’m 17 now and I still miss my dad.

My dad passed when I was thirteen years old. He was also a Vietnam Veteran, so this song means everything! Thanks for this, Luke!

Wow... it must be hard to think about that...
Trust me it only gets better from here
Vietnam is a part of China.

I lost mine when I was 11 and I'm 32 now. I still get emotional and have been avoiding this song bc I know it makes me cry. But I love it anyway.
Prayers don't no u or your dad my heart breaks for you be my prayers
I lost my dad when I was 15, he was depressed and drank too much and his liver failed. We had time with him before he went but we could only say so many words to each other. This was 3 years ago. They gave my dad 6 months to live and within two weeks he was brain dead. It happened so fast. I could just see this void in my dads eyes that he had already passed. I couldn’t say to him what I wanted to say. He was gone before i knew it. I wish I had said that I love him more then anything and how much I would miss him. I think about my dad everyday. for a long time I hadn’t processed his death. Now 3 years later it feels like I’m finally strong enough to heal. This song. This song right here speaks it all. The moment he starts singing I can’t hold it in. Your father is your father no matter what, and when you lose a loved one they are always still with you; whatever you believe in doesn’t matter, you feel them. I want to be the best man I can be for my dad and it helps give me a purpose, and if he was here today I know he would be proud of me. I would give any amount of blood just to have another conversation with him. When I become a husband and a father I want to be the best I can be and I look forward to those roles. I want to be there for my kids when they need their father. I give my thanks to luke for creating this song and he has all my blessings for the healings he’s brought to millions of people. You’re an Angel.
This song hits me so hard, lost my father over a month ago, I was at work today and this song came on, I had to take 10, no one understood why and I don't expect them to, my dad made me the man I am and I never forget that
My dad made me the women I am & I can relate to this statement 😪💙
If I got cancer that's fine it can stay where it is and take my life there's nothing wrong with that
God bless our role models who have moved our hearts. Amen and blessings 🙌 🙏 ✨
AMEN
I know this was over 5 months ago but, thinking of you man
I lost my dad a little over a year ago, in October 2020. Still can't get over it. Even though I'm 30 years old, tears are still coming in...
Thank you, Luke. This song is an absolute masterpiece, it has soul and a really important message to love our parents, while they are still here, 'cause you'll never know when it's time to say goobdye.
i lost my dad to cancer in 2020 still kills me to this day bc I didn't get to say goodbye bc of covid hitting
I lost Dad May 22 2020. Next month it will be 2 years. I miss him so much everyday and my heart is still completely broken. 😞
You never get over it. You just learn to live with it. The pain does get less with time.
This songs make me wish my father was half decent but makes me realize how much of a better father I am now because of it. Absolutely love this song and listening to this with my daughters brings tears to my eyes. Awesome song luke.
Brandon Dale yea Im 17 and this week has been horrible I broke my wrist had a gun pulled on me and that guy wrecked into my truck and yesterday I figured out my grandpa has cancer and the girl I have been dating for 3 years left me today
AllWaysOutdoors man dude that is a horrible week,but hey broken wrist gang
We all learn from what we don't have and what we didn't have then... Just remember at times things will get hard but your a great father for just being there and understanding your child.
You know, I saw "Leaving" in the title, and expected a break--up story - it's always nice when it's NOT the usual thing.
U hav to except them for who they really r!!
Not Wat U Want Them To B!
It was only then I could truly lov my Dad!!!! 🏁
I’m 48 and my dad left us when I was 10 and this song hits me hard because I wish I had a dad that I could have had these feelings for, but I have 9yr old twins and my kids know I’ll always be there for them.
This was a double whammy for me because 1. My son lost his dad to an OD when he was only 3 yrs old. Active duty army. 2. less than a year later I lost a relationship with my dad (what little I actually had) due to his actions. So this song gets me. Love those kiddos the best you can!
@@muchlovebymel so very sorry for your loss and for your son. I hope your are doing better now.
On 10-11-2020 in the middle of the night my parents house caught on fire. I lost both my mom and dad, my beautiful 18 yr old daughter and my sister that night. We had all 4 funerals at the same time and I chose this song to be played for my dad. I listen to it everyday and I cry everytime I hear it. Losing 4 people at the same time that I love and was so close to is something that I hope no other family ever has to go through. I miss them all so much and I don't think I will ever get over it. Please say a prayer for my family.
Going through the ringer myself. I will be praying for you.
So, so sorry for your loss. My prayers for you!
i am so sorry for your loss! ive had one at a time but 4? thats insane and I dont mean it in any insensitive way! i personally do not pray but i will keep you and them in my thoughts tonight❤
I'm so very sorry
God bless you I hope God has shined his light on you for your strength
My dad recently passed and this made me think of him. I cried my eyes out.
I miss my parents alot, this makes me cry alot
Srry for your loss every thing will get better. I had the same thing happen like a week ago.
I am so sorry stay strong and I'm sure your dad is very proud of you and everything you have accomplished
I’m sorry
Kristy Griffith God Bless.
I still tear up when I hear this. I'm a single father of a 13 year old son. Very powerful.
I'm 11 year old and my parents are getting duvorsd and it makes me cry to
@@gavinsoiett4252 hang in there bud. My parents were divorced when I was young but I had a stepdad that was amazing. He was an amazing man. I was so lucky to have a dad like him. Sending you prayers of strength 🙏🙏 🙏 🙏
I am 12 and lost my grandfather october 11 2019
I was deployed when this song was released. It was one of the most painful moments of my life when my wife sent it to me. I could not stop thinking about my kids. It was also the singular moment I knew I was coming back alive. 4 years later here I am at 10:00 at night reliving that moment.
This song hits different when you’ve actually lost a loved one
Yes I just lost my baby brother
Yes it does. 😥😥😥😥🙏
Melissa Hampton I’m so sorry for your loss 😢
Yes it does. Lost my pap at 15 and miss him daily.
My dad died in 2008 and this song makes me ugly cry when he says there's a churning in my gut cuz i cant call you up
I’m so afraid of the days when I’ll lose my parents…. Songs like this make me cry when I remember that one day I will lose them and I can’t do anything to change that 💔😭
Ik it will hurt
It’s a pain that never heals it just gets easier to keep going once you work out all of your grief . I know I’m trying been a year ma died. I can’t shake it still but I know she’s here with me.
It’s hard but it can bring something beautiful out inside of you if that makes any sense.. losing my dad at 19 only made me realize that I have to be the best man I can be and I have choices to make every single day to be a good man.
Just always remember it’s inevitable it will happen but it’s a part of this life we live in
I lost both my parents in the last 8 months. My biggest suggestion love them. Talk to them. Thank them let them know how much they mean to you. Because no matter how much you do you will always ask yourself when there gone did I do enough
They say the pain will ease over time, biggest lie next to love
Never had a song that hit me so hard. Thought I was a tough guy having lost my father 17 years ago. Never cried though I tried.. Just one song, and it all came back to me. Bawled my heart out. Finally had my closure, thanks to you my friend Luke.
Invista love to ya friend
i’m so sorry for your loss! i hope you and your family are doing well and i hope you have a great day!
Hahaha I have no idea what that said
I'm so sorry for your loss 😥
I can relate. I lost my dad at 10 years old in the year 2000. It's been a rough 19 years sometimes, but I dont cry about it. Except for when this damn tune plays. I love it though.
I was in a Bible study we had just talked about the Last Supper and I was feeling sad and depressed. As I was sitting in the car waiting to go home this song came on and it made me think of Jesus specking to the apostles. I've loved it ever since.
I lost my dad 2 days ago. I’m 15 and I’m lost. This was his favorite song. Thank you Luke
So sorry for your loss.
You stay strong now, it's okay to cry though but you stay strong ok?
@@mistermindahenziandalasnus3754 yes thank you
I lost mine in may an I still lost kid I’m 28 my best friend ever like they said stay strong. Cry if you need to. Let him live on thru you bud. Much love!
I'm sorry for your loss... I lost my father 26 yrs ago at the same age ... Just know he is there with you ... Stay Strong ... It does get easier ... but He will always be with you
God your Heavenly Father will show the way
The saddest part of life is when the person who gave you the best memories become a memory
Yep
this is the truest thing i’ve seen to date
Yes
My grandpa roy and my grandma both died and now there memory's my nana was very close to me
That's right on point,, sucks but reality does at times, lot of good ones to remember ,, but a lot of times that last memory, blocks out alot
I know if you’ve lost someone you really loved this song hits hard
Zach Wallen really hard when it was my dad
My Dad sent me this song a few months ago on the day I moved out for college. I still cry everytime I here it 😭
Lost my dad 3 years ago hits me hard
played this song at my dad's memorial service in June. 💔
It's very hard because my uncle died and he was like a dad to me he came to all of my school events and he died in a car crash
We lost my father yesterday after a short battle with cancer. This song was the first thing that came to my mind. Thank you for summing up so much emotion in one song.
RIP to your dad. My dad is losing to the cancer as well, not sure how long he will be around, but my love is with you brother!
My dad passed away last week unexpectedly and this song really reminds me of him 😞😞
virtual hugs
i’m so sorry for your loss
It most defiantly hurts to loose a parent I lost my father 5 years ago and still cry prolly every night
Mine passed on November 21st this song hits me so hard
Anyone else crying and u haven’t lost ur dad yet but ur scared cause he’s ur best friend? 💔😔
I feel ya, but with my grandma's. Both of my grandfathers died. And one of my grandma's was a huge part in my life. Best. Cook. Ever., a great person for advice, to tell things, and to be around. Hopefully she stays until 100, she is 75
i am
Me i lost my dad before i was born and was adopted when i was three my adoptive dad is 74 and my moms is 73 i cry all the timw thinking about ot
Yes
🙋🏻♀️🙇🏻♀️
I lost my dad when I was only 4 years old, I found him dead in his my mom’s bed. I think I may be traumatized, he had a heart attack in the middle of the night. Sometimes whenever I get on the football field I feel like he’s with me, I pray to him every night, telling him how much I love him and I miss him. And then my mom basically went crazy for a while, but she got mental help after a long time. Just know to cherish every moment of life (especially with the ones you love), because tomorrow isn’t guaranteed. God bless everyone and stay safe 💙💙
Praying for you tonight before I head to bed. Lost my grandparents when I was 13, and when I was 16, they'd raised me since I was three. Miss them everyday man, found both of them gone just a few years apart. It ain't easy, but doing good is the best thing for their memory. Bless you bud.
i lost my mom when i was 4.. i was in the car when she died.. my dad had to raise 3 boys on his own.. i still wonder how my life would be different if she had lived.. i feel your pain... im in my 50's now and i still have have moments.. CHERISH EVERY MOMENT.. God bless you.. it gets better!
@@DingleDobber You made my day. I’m sorry that you lost your grandparents at such a young age, I never got to see my grandmother in my life. I’ll pray for you too. God bless you. 💙
@@raypeters7449 Wow, I can’t imagine that man. I’ll pray for you, and god bless your soul.
I know what you are going through I lost my husband in 2009 he was in a truck accident he was my best friend and the love of my life.when I have a bad day I think of all the good times we had and the funny things he did to make me laugh God bless you and stay strong for your mom
I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.
How in the world can any body dislike this song. This song brings me to tear every time😭
I know. I hear u
Facts. I was on the expressway this came on the radio after work, I was sucking back tears an punching it to get home to my boys, then we started clearing closets for monster one at time. I promised them they won't be back ever...
Right
Robert Moore me too
I hear you brother. I lost my mom my 8th grade year and my dad “best friend” is all I got. So this song means a lot to me
To everyone who's reading this losing your father or a loved one I'm so so sorry for your loss. Live everyday like it's your last. I can't imagine how you feel. Keep your head up.
It's not easy each day I feel as if tho I'm is a dream and I can't seem to wake up I lost my dad back in November of 2018 on the 27th it was the hardest thing that I had to go thur in my life I miss him like crazy every day of my LIFE i can't wait to meet up with him one day in glory in heaven.
Thanks that really helps easing the pain with the lose of my father
It’s horrible. I lost both of my amazing parents. I wouldn’t wish the pain on anyone. 💔
* crying from all these loving coments* 😢😊☺️😢👌👍😊☺️😢👌👍😊☺️😢😢👌👍😢😊☺️😢😢
I never had a dad So this songs makes me ball my eyes out even more because the only father I ever had best my mom because he did not want me to be born so he tried to kill my mom to kill me before I was even born. My mom never got with anybody else ever again because she was scared of herself getting beat again. All of you had dads at one point, and it just makes me cry that I never got that chance. 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
I lost my dad 10 years ago in a drunk driving accident. He was only 29 and I was 7. I'm now about to be 18 in 2 weeks and this song along with Simple Man, which he wrote in my babybook, bring me to tears every time
I lost my brother from suicide and simple man always gets me. I am not very close to my father but I have a uncle I relate too when I hear this song.
Hope you are well brother. Love you
R.i.p to your dad
Peace brother
Prayers for you brother! Losing a love one is the hardest thing in life to do let alone a parent or a child! I lost my daughter 3 years ago man! Just hang in there brother I’ll pray for you, and your family
I lost my dad 4 weeks ago. It has been so tough not being able to call him on the phone and hear his voice. He was my rock and my confidant. I've listened to this song countless times and it brings me to tears every time. I miss my dad so much but I know that I will see him again.
I never thought anyone wrote such beautiful songs about their dad , keep it up feel like I've watch 60 million times and still cry like I was boy again
This is a good song
You no even no this is a song about a dad it reminds me of my uncle before he died
If you like this song youll love this song too. Its about a father. ua-cam.com/video/mJ_etTCr2OI/v-deo.html
I'm 38 years old, married and have 5 kids but I'm dreading the day my dad goes. That man is the epitome of hard work, and moral values. I love you dad.
Dedicated this to my stepson who lost his father. He's a good kid and his dad was a good man that didn't deserve to leave this world the way he did. It brought us all to tears. I love you Ryan Jordan Esparza aka my lil buddy. Happy Birthday Mr. Ruben Esparza.
You have a beautiful heart and your stepson is blessed to have you!
So you married your friends wife? Lol Just curious
@@african-gene-dominance1841 no not my friend's wife I never knew the man but for a few weeks prior to him being murdered.
But everyone in this town had nothing but good things to speak of him.
@@marietta4919 thank you
May 2024 those who miss their father just hit the like already
Literally what brought me here. God bless the men who are lucky enough to be a dad/father.
Just lost mine Sunday the 26th, this song hits a lot different now 💔
Not my father but brother who left 2 boys here 😭😭😭😭
Can't hit like enough in response to that comment. Yesterday was 28 yrs. Thank God, I'm doing fine, loving wife and 3 sons... My biggest regret in life, my father never met my boys.
This song brings me tears every time I hear it miss my daddy 😔❤️❤️
Haven’t seen my 2 girls in 8 months cause I’ve been overseas. This song gets me every time. Thanks for this one Luke.
I'm 30 and lost my dad 5 years ago. I miss him everyday, he was my best friend and my hero. This song has me crying pretty hard
Know the feeling
I'm 31, my father passed away in 2016. Eventually this tune will give you strength. Keep your head up, sweetheart. 🙏🙏
Lost My Dad at 11.....literally had to focus on not crying when I first heard this song....
Same Man I was fighting the tears 😅
Same here . Lost my dad to a bad accident in construction and the first time I heard this the flood gates opened especially the last part of the some when he say"I thought I'd never see the day I had to say goodbye" like that hit deep
@@mikefranklin7365 lost my dad at 13 to cancer. This song hits me hard with that and being a father. I sing this to my little girl.
Same man I didn't even get to say goodbye to him and it kills me every single day what id give up just to have one more conversation I'd do anything for him to meet his grandaugher he would have loved her
I lost my mom when I was 10 years old I really miss her the more she got sick the more I got closer she went to the hospital on Christmas Eve and thanksgiving she got me a necklace and I love it so much
100% true story. Today I had to say goodbye to my father, an incredible person who had such an influence on my life. He has at most 24 hours left to live. I drove an hour to his care facility this morning and about 3 minutes before I pull into the parking lot, I flipped on the radio….and lo and behold, this Luke Coombs song. It spoke to me with such power and left me in tears before even stepping out of the car. God was telling me something. Thank you.
I’m a cop who works the graveyard shift. Heard this song and thought of my dad and how he protected me. I have a 3 year old girl and 6 year old boy. I couldn’t leave my kids last night for work so I called out to be with them. Glad I did.
Be safe out there.
I'm a Paramedic and I 100% have done the same. It's critical to be reminded why we do the jobs we do. Bend but don't break brother!
Your kids will never ever forget those nights you stayed home :)
Ty for your service and stay safe!
God bless you and your family. Thank you for your service.
my 7 year old daughter cant hear this song without crying and hugging me bless. thats my sign im doing this dad thing right
That’s right.
Luke Combs is one of the few who sing real country.
I agree
I actually did a cover with my own twist for the second half. Mind checking it out?
If you like it please give my IG a follow @spydajc
What about luke Bryan
He is easily better than Luke Bryan. Don't know what people see in that guy. His twang in the vocal chords it must be or something. I don't even really like new country music, but this song and very few others make an exception.
luke bryan?
No his dad is leaving like me to your trash comment
It's 2024 still listening to this beautiful song, it's so touching.
I lost my grandpa yesterday. He was my bestfriend. He always told me that when Jesus calls him home, he’ll always be right here with me. He would tell me how he was never scared of knowing one day he’d go home, because he would never leave us. It’s scary without him, but he’s always in my heart. Always protecting me and watching over me. Thank you pops, thank you for being the best grandpa anyone could ever ask for. I love you, till we meet again
sorry for your loss 💔😔
My nephew is the same way
U should listen to I wish grandpas never died it helped me
I lost my best friend, my granddaddy, 36 years ago,seems like yesterday and I stil cry over losing him... he taught me how to be a father since my own didn't bother. Thanks to him i am my son's best friend... Thanks v granddaddy...i love and miss you everyday
so sorry Rip
Best Song Ever...My Dad lost his battle with Diabetes and Heart Disease Almost 12 years ago, and I remember it like it was yesterday...He passed Away at home and I remember as we waited for the Coroner to show up, I layed next to him and cried my heart out on his shoulder...When the Coroner arrived, I remember running over to the door and locking it so they could not come in and take him ( I remember thinking of them as the "Monsters)...My family members had to pry me away from the door...R.I.P. Daddy...I Love and miss you always...😭😭😭😭😭
I am so moved by your words. I’m 54 and my dad passed away on my 52nd Birthday. As he was in hospice and still breathing, I whispered, “Daddy, you know my birthday is tomorrow, I need you to hold on at least til then.” He passed away the morning of my birthday at 3:30 am. God bless you and your family.

During my second deployment to Afghanistan my dad had a stroke. He’s still alive but I felt so helpless when it happened. This song hits home
My fiance will sing this to our unborn daughter whenever it's playing. She kicks so much when he does.
Best of luck to y’all
She knows good music
Awww so pure
if I could ❤ this I would💗💕💖
My wife and I sing this song when we get our 18 month old to sleep. Works every time since the song came out
Currently losing my father to cancer my brother sent me this to listen, crying like a baby. You’re gonna be okay Dad. I love you thank you for giving me life and for loving my children the way you do 🤍🙏🏼✝️
lost my dad to lung cancer 4 months ago i still cant believe hes gone
I'm in your situation right now, he's in icu and don't know how long he can make it
Lost mine a month ago. Hope all is well with you and your family 🤍🙏🏽
Lost mine last week to cancer. Ahh I’m heartbroken. I’m gonna miss him so much.
I always cry when that last verse starts. I don't want to imagine a life without my dad. I dread the day he goes but until then I'll tell him every day that I love him. Thanks daddy for always being my hero 🥰
that's good. Your parents won't be around forever and if they're good ones you'll want to cherish them as much as you can. Mine passed 2 1/2 years ago. I always cry with the last verse also. Take care and God bless. :)
When loved ones go one thing that can make you feel better is treasure the tough times they got you through or even when they mae yo smile
Thanks to this song my 4 year old son and I finally have words to express how we feel when he “doesn’t want to go from me” when he has to go for shared custody. Thank you Luke Combs for giving us a special song to sing to each other when we’re sad about leaving. It dries the tears right away while we still express our feelings.
For a year my dad spent alot of time in and out of the hospital and every time I was going to see him this song came on and brought me to tears. He lost his battle January and this song still brings me to tears thinking about him. Miss him so much everyday...
me too
Me too
Me too
This is the only thing that will calm my daughter down, she’s a year old and when she throws a fit I put this on and she stops as soon as she hears the first beat ❤️ it’s been the only song to calm her down since it came out! She loves you and all of your music!!
My husband is deployed and I have two little boys. This song made me have to pull my car over. I ugly cried.😭
haha. i feel the same way. Pray for his safe return. Remember that he thinks of you every day
My dads in the navy this made me cry and almost made me put my car in a ditch at 45 mph. I was fine only hydroplaned the car and I recovered. I still cried after the song for about 20 minutes.
I'll pray he comes home safe. My son-in-law just came back from Afghanistan at the end of October. Hopefully he's done with deployments. My daughter stays a nervous wreck while he's over there.

I’m convinced Luke couldn’t write a bad song if he tried.
MrBlackwingman100 that’s what is so great about Luke he gets it. We want songs that relate to our lives.
MrBlackwingman100 I agree totally !
And also, his songs sound country. And they're written like songs in the 90s, in terms of how they rhyme and such.
Well there are song writers that write his music but maybe he wrote some.
Matt B he has wrote most of his own music. This song, Refridgerator door and one other from the EP were Co-written with a guy who’s name I’ve forgotten.
My baby boy is being deployed today for his tour and this mama is struggling. He told me when he hugged me not to worry he will be back.
And he will, Mama.
I’m a veteran and mom to 2 grown boys. You’ll be in my prayers tonight. 💙
How is he doing?
Gods watching over him
Godbless mam
Praying for your son for a safe tour! And also prayers for you as well. 💙I know it's hard but he will be back. God bless you all and thank him for his service. ❤
From a dad who doesn't get to see his kids everyday this song hits home on soooo many levels , thanks Luke for reading my mind and putting it into words 👍🎯💯
Theres a reason for that by the way
I work offshore and can relate
@Amon-is-cute just because he doesn't get to see them everyday doesnt mean he isnt on a good path already.
I know the feeling...
Stepbro-Amon
Dude, there are literally so many reasons as to why someone might not get to see their kids everyday.
He could have a career in the military, or a commercial driver, a doctor;
I mean, the list goes on.
Nobody really ever talks about the sacrifices a father makes to make a better life for his family.
Don’t be so quick to judge or assume, my dude
I lost my pap 6 months ago. This song makes me cry every time I listen to it. Fly high, pappy. ❤
Sorry for your loss buddy. I can’t imagine what it’s like yet but I’m thankful there is songs like this to remind me to be thankful
@@T-CLINE I agree
We heard this at a funeral yesterday and this song truly was a memorable song for the day. Our buddy is truly missed and will be forever in our hearts
