Finally someone sang the words crying from my heart for the past 18 years. I always felt like I ruined my son's fairy tale he should have been given. Thank you for healing some of the cracks made so many years ago.
It sure does. Going through it after 17 years of marriage. It was abusive so I don’t miss him, but my heart breaks for my kids Bc that’s not what I had in mind when I chose to get married and have kids. I wanted them to have their family together forever, and now they get to be from a “broken home”. That’s what hurts.
@@andreadenise2539 I just want to say the broken home was when he was abusing you, now they will live in a loving home without all of the bad that was between you 2.
My dad sent me this - said it’s what I’m currently going through. He’s right…and it breaks my heart…we were supposed to be each other’s last…but that didn’t happen in the end. Now we’re states apart and I’m raising our 5 children myself. Praying it’ll get easier for us…
I’m currently going through a child custody battle with my ex boyfriend and this song breaks me down. We have an almost 3 year old daughter. We were together 4 1/2 years and never, never did I think I’d be on this side of the fence.. thank you for writing this Jana 🥺
I'm going through the same thing for 3 yrs of fighting custody,it's been so hard and this just made me cry cause it's everything ni didn't want for my children
Ohh this made me cry! I’ve been a single mom for 20 yrs… this reminds me so much of us when my boys were little. I promise w/the help of my Lord Jesus… it does get better & my boys are good Godly young men now.
Beautiful song and Beautiful video ❤️ many of us divorced women with children can definitely relate to this. The one thing that always hurts the most is the thought that we failed in giving the kids the family they deserve, but just as your song says, we're all gonna be okay, maybe even better not having to grow up in a toxic environment. Keep being strong for them and be strong for you too! God has a beautiful plan for us and I know it's better than we can imagine. ❤️
I never went through a divorce when I had my first son but this hits home for me! I tried so hard to keep our family together but it just wasn't enough. This song is amazing Jana! Congratulations on hitting #1 in all genres you deserve it❤
Wow, as a man this hits home for me! Thank you Jana! You make me want to be a better man. You’re voice and story just makes me cry. I hope Ian knows how lucky he is to have you guys.
Jana is an amazing Singer Very Few can sing like her. She is one of the very best singers in Country,,, I hope She NEVER quits putting out awesome music
Currently separated for my husband heading for divorce. I came across this song one day randomly and its exactly how i feel about giving my daughter a fairytale life with parents who are together. Ill always blame myself for my part in it. I grew up without a father. I never wanted that for her, but now shes going through it. He was barely present when he was here, but he says he wants to be apart of he life but has literally only seen her a few times these last 8 months
Her music is so underrated. Love her songwriting and voice. Beautiful sad song that was a stepping stone to her current fairytale ending (complete with castle, kilt, and horse drawn carriage❤). What a Phoenix 🐦🔥 🔥 🌟
Absolutely fantastic song! Can definitely relate. Divorce certainly is never easy on adults, let alone the children. So many nights I’d lay awake in bed crying and missing my daughter. Now she’s a senior in college and we have never been closer. I’ve been remarried for almost 14 years to a woman that is an absolute angel 😇 and that my daughter absolutely loves!!! Music is so good for your soul.
I tired so hard not to bawl my eyes out and failed. My heart breaks to see this and hear this… but it’s such a beautiful song Jana. And you’re kids are so proud of you. You are a hero to them and always will be. I’m still so sorry you had to go through the divorce… my heart and prayers is always with you. You inspire me so much!! ❤️❤️❤️ keep your crown up woman. ❤️❤️
Definitely hits right in my heart, being that I was left in my 20’s with 3 little children. Feelings of abandonment, effected us, as complete deviation! The most heartbreaking, is how you feel so alone, but GOD helped me through it, now my children have children of their own. The blessings of having these precious moments with our angel children do get us through the most difficult of times. This song touched me so much! Thank you! What doesn’t completely destroy us is the fact that we have so much more to live for in our Precious gifts of our children! ❤🙏
I had 3 miscarriages in between my first 3 children, one of them at 6 1/2 months along in my 20,s yrs, and the fact that I already had those losses was a deviation way beyond anything I could have thought I would be able to endure, and what kept me going through the abandonment issues were my 3 angel children which helped keep me grounded, focused on the journey ahead. When we are in the thick, dark forest of this life, trying to find our way finding a light opening up so we can see clearly enough to finally navigate the path, which God has prepared for us to continue on, as it’s not only for our growth, but for us to realize we can forge on, with more confidence than we ever felt possible. May you have the secure feeling of your self worth as daughter of our creator to be strong, fearless, relentless on your journey going forward!! 🙏❤️
This song gets me every single time I hear it. "You're the very best chapters in the story of us" is my favorite line in this song. Divorce is hard, it's hard on every person in the family. No one ever gets married expecting to get divorced one day. Sometimes despite your best efforts, it just doesn't work out. It's hard, it hurts like hell, but sometimes it's how it has to be. I always tell my kids that their Dad and I didn't work out as husband and wife, but we did work out as parents. Our kids come first before anything else and they know that. They know we love them more and that's all that matters. My heart goes out to anyone who has been through this, or is currently going through it.
I can’t relate but being a fan of your acting & music for so many years & seeing everything you’ve gone through this song brings a tear to my eye. Your lyrics are always so real & from heart. You are so strong, so beautiful inside & out! Stay strong Mama, you got this 💗💗
Such an incredibly beautiful song. Your so strong to weather the storm, and make it to the other side. You are such a bright light for all of us Moms out there. Congratulations!
Jana, this song & video is so beautifully done! ❤️ you deserve all the happiness in the world!! I hope this song gets played on all country radio stations, definitely one of the best country songs I’ve heard in a long time 😭
Jolie and Jace are two of the cutest kids I ever seen and their happiness and beauty comes from their strong, resilient Mama who has already been through so much and will continue to always love and take care of them!!
Omg....love this song.....you're now living your truth....and pain has a way of making us see we are worthy of so much more! Thank for your vulnerability. Congrats on your new found freedom and relationship!
Beautiful Jana. And you did everything you do for those babies. You are a better woman for it and they will know how strong their Mama is and how much she loves them. And always will.
While everyone has their own stories, hardships, and sad moments, This is an absolutely beautiful, gorgeous song that we can all relate to!!! Thanks Jana for lending your beautiful voice and providing all of us with this awesome song.
Beautiful! Tears in my eyes and just putting my mom, sister and myself in this song. It was just us 3 pretty much forever but officially when I turned 15. It sucks but so thankful for my mom's faith and strength. I see my mom in you. Keep God close and anything and everything is possible. God bless your family.
My sons daddy passed away when he was 18 months old. He'll be 5 next month. I've raised him alone. I've not dated since. We are stronger because of it, and we are healing! ❤
Mine decided to leave after 20 years. Leaving me with two shellshocked middle school kids. It’s been 3 years, no dating for me either. I couldn’t ad more chaos to their lives. All because he was banging some chic at work and chose her over us. Now they seem him about 10 hours a month when he can “make time”.
Love all LL LL LL l on LL lllpllll LL LL l me LL LL LL LL LL LL LL LL llllllll LL l LL LL l LL lllllll lol lllllllllllplplllllpllpppllppl my lll lpplplplllpllllpll
I was 9 months old. And it may not be my place to say this but as a little girl knowing what it's like to be such a young kid going through that, hold him a lot and tell him about his dad and don't ever let him wonder who his daddy was. It makes you struggle with your own identity not knowing someone so important in your life.
This year has been tough after losing my dog then losing my uncle to cancer this song really helps me get thought it thank you for writing beautiful music Jana ❤
As a single mama to two daughters, this song… gets it. Gets me. Thank you for sharing your struggles, so us mamas out here feel less alone. Love to you. 🤎
Wow, such an amazing story! I wish I heard this song many years ago.. It could've been my anthem to my girls. We survived, conquered and now we have many new stories and memories in our scrapbook of life. So beautiful Jana 🇨🇦💕
Uncontrollable sobbing. What i would have given to make things better for my son, and daughter. I can only imagine the countless number of people whose heart you touched. I could have used your words and long long time ago.
I’ve been a big fan of Jana for years and this song / video is just heartbreaking. She’s so strong and puts herself out there for everyone to see. I’ve been watching it all unfold with instagram post . Wishing her and the two little ones the best of happiness life can bring 😘
This is just beautifully done. The message to your babies is clear❤ Jana I went through a separation and divorce with our special needs daughter and I am only 32 years old. I was very reliant on other people for most of my life, I never wanted to be alone, I never wanted to have kids, I was very selfish and irresponsible at 25. I was married at 22 to a narcissistic that I had been with since I was 18. I got pregnant at 25, had my daughter at 26 and then my whole world snapped into focus. By 29 I was done with my ex's bullshit and left him with our autistic child in tow. My divorce was finalized Oct 2020. I'm just now starting to enter this phase in my life that I'm finding nyself and I'm empowered, im HEALING. Jana, time and God really DOES heal all things! God sent me my daughter because He knew I needed structure and He knew I needed her. He knew I needed me, and He knew I needed Him. You are doing it! Congratulations Jana, you took your life back and not many people can say they did that!
This song has so much emotion and heart in it, and it makes the music meaningful. I have ways loved her music, and it just keeps getting better. I wish her all the happiness in the world and support her every step of the way
Thank you for these words. The lyrics. The melody. The message. We all only want the best for our children, whose lives are disrupted when parents separate. They are affected the most. I pray for every parent experiencing this situation or family dynamic. We will make it through it.
Mama of 2 and been single mom since 4 years! One of the horrific thing but taught me to grow and it feels like a lonely world! The tears, the fears, and ups downs of us. Blessed to have my family but as individual it’s a emptiness inside.
jana is a woman of substance you just cant find this these days. she beautiful and loving. since im a man of 56 this would never happen men today need to grow up..
Oh my heart! Bawled like a baby! Sometimes our stories end up changing and sometimes that change is for the better. Even if you don’t think so at the moment.
You guys are the perfect family the three of you. Your kids have the perfect family because they have you for their Mom. Beautiful song, beautiful voice, beautiful person, beautiful family.
Some songs,man you think or feel like the days are getting easier and the heartaches not hurting like it was, then you hear a song and it all comes flooding right back.Hard to believe it's been 16 months.
Oh my gosh, I am here and tears are falling. We had a hard time as well, as we moved to the USA, I was working so hard , always on the road for my company. My wife was at home taking care of the kids. One day after she was home in Germany, she wanted to stay there, after a long talk, by the time she came back home to US, I realized, I was happy to travel meeting a lot of people and she was home with no one to talk, just the kids. So it broke my hard, to realize I wasn’t there at school for the first game or My sons student of the year celebration. I missed a lot, with a lot of talking and being home more often, we saved our marriage. I am so happy, because I woke up just in time. Jana, this song is so beautiful and out of your heart ❤️, I could feel the pain. Looking forward is the only thing we can do in this situation, it is easy to say, but it is like it is. You are a beautiful woman with amazing kids, and one day Mr. Right will be in front of you. Don’t search for him, the universe will guide you, just pay attention to the small signs. Greetings from Germany Michael
Omg lots of tears, But you and your kids are amazing and your a wonderful mom love watching your strength and love build more and more each and everyday God Bless
Jana you wrote a song that so many mothers that have had to walk away and do it all on there own have always wanted to hear. Thank you for giving us mothers a song that express how we all feel. You amazing and you have a beautiful family. Stay strong momma we're all here
I’m not crying you are… Totally brought tears to my eyes. Perfect Family is a happy one in my eyes. I can’t relate, but I was raised by a single mom sometimes I wish I grew up like most families. Looking in on some of those you learn they aren’t so perfect. You deserve the best Jana. So do you beautiful children. Beautiful Song. Knocked it out the park. Looking forward to more music from you.
My parents divorced when I was 10, and I stayed with my mom when they split. I know it's not the life you envisioned for yourself, but I promise you - you and your kids will be okay, more than okay. I'll never forget the strength, perseverance, and independence my mom showed throughout that time (and she was in pain for a long time) - and seeing those traits in her impacted me more than having a "normal family structure" ever could. I wouldn't trade growing up with her for the world. She's my hero, and I'm sure your kids will see you in the same light!
I hope someday my boys will understand and feel the same way you do. Thank you for your words of hope especially during moments like today where Im lost again wondering if my children can see my silent struggles and pain.❤️
This song hits me totally different. My husband suffered an anoxic brain injury on 9/24/21 as a result of unexpected cardiac arrest and is now considered minimally conscious. We have two young boys and I would give anything to take this part of our story away… there are so many nights we all cry, even him. You take one line out of this song and it is my life to a T… I’m still fighting for his recovery. Hopefully we get our fairytale one day…
I'm so very sorry ..your story brought tears 😢 to my eyes. I pray for your husband's recovery as well. Keep fighting for Love ❤️ God bless u and ur family.
I personally have never gone through this but I've been following you for a long time and know your story. I'm typing this with tears in my eyes. The three of you make the perfect family.
Your songs got me through middle school in 2015, and the fact that you make music that reminds me of then is something I don't see in many artists, but I do in you
Jana this is beautiful. I've followed your for a long time, with OTH and your music and your podcast. I know you didn't want this for your children, but as a child of divorce myself, I promise that they will benefit more from you happy separately than sad together. The family they have with you is full of love. This song and video could make me cry, but it is perfect. It speaks volumes.
❤️❤️❤️❤️ took me back to a time 14 years ago! My heart aches for you and your family. It does get better!! Paint that smile on, hold your head up high!
Bawling!!! While I havent been divorced I'm still a single mother of a little girl and this hits home. You are a stunning woman and an amazing mother Jana. I've been a fan since One Tree Hill. You deserve nothing but the best in life. Thank you for writing the story many didn't know they needed to hear.
Absolutely amazing song and video. I have a family member who has had so many ups and downs with men that this hits hard. You are such a strong woman for not only you but your children as well. God bless you
I've been hearing this song on the Highway on Sirius Xm and I has time find out. I know what it's about now. No divorce is easy. I tried to keep mine together but between him on the road and me stuck home with three under 4 it wasn't easy so I made the decision to file for divorce. You have to be happy yourself so your kids will be happy that's what made me do it and him cheating again that was the final straw. This was 26 years ago and I don't regret my decision. So Thank You Jana for telling us this beautiful story ❤❤❤
Finally someone sang the words crying from my heart for the past 18 years. I always felt like I ruined my son's fairy tale he should have been given. Thank you for healing some of the cracks made so many years ago.
I’m sorry my kiddos and grands
Going through a divorce myself and honestly this song just hits different when you’re in the same position. Sending love to you, mama.
Going through one myself after 30 years
It sure does. Going through it after 17 years of marriage. It was abusive so I don’t miss him, but my heart breaks for my kids Bc that’s not what I had in mind when I chose to get married and have kids.

It certainly does. I am trying to navigate my emotions through my separation but having to tell my kids will be tough.
I feel the same way
As a single mom of 2 girls, this song hits hard!! Keep Pushing through Mama's yall got this
You cause it?
I'm the daughter of a single Mom, and I have one brother and when I was little I would take naps with her in her bed and cuddle ❤
My dad sent me this - said it’s what I’m currently going through. He’s right…and it breaks my heart…we were supposed to be each other’s last…but that didn’t happen in the end. Now we’re states apart and I’m raising our 5 children myself. Praying it’ll get easier for us…
@janakramer2442 imposter. Instead of pretending to be someone you're not get a life
I'm praying for you and your family!
Praying for you babe I'm right there with ya right now.
One month in
I absolutely love this and love her and her kids. I love how real and humble she is. 💞 This song is amazing and perfect.
I’m currently going through a child custody battle with my ex boyfriend and this song breaks me down. We have an almost 3 year old daughter. We were together 4 1/2 years and never, never did I think I’d be on this side of the fence.. thank you for writing this Jana 🥺
I'm going through the same thing for 3 yrs of fighting custody,it's been so hard and this just made me cry cause it's everything ni didn't want for my children
Ohh this made me cry! I’ve been a single mom for 20 yrs… this reminds me so much of us when my boys were little. I promise w/the help of my Lord Jesus… it does get better & my boys are good Godly young men now.
I feel her pain, been there before. She is amazing. She's got this! just takes time 💛
Cant relate, yet I’m here crying like a baby. Beautiful song Jana 🤍
I'm crying too right now
This makes me ugly cry. Beautiful, haunting.
I'm crying like like baby too. Maybe it hit home.cause this was.my.childhood. I don't know but it hit all the feels.

Absolute chills, and tears. Beautiful song!!!

Mama of 2 and been single mom since 4 years! One of the horrific thing but taught me to grow and it feels like a lonely world! The tears, the fears, and ups downs of us. Blessed to have my family but as individual it’s a emptiness inside.
jana is a woman of substance you just cant find this these days. she beautiful and loving. since im a man of 56 this would never happen men today need to grow up..
I'm a single mother two beautiful girls. I'm in love with this song bc it's My life. Thank you God!!! I'm happy with your plan.
Such beautiful video your so strong Jana what a beautiful family they are lucky to have you
Oh my heart! Bawled like a baby! Sometimes our stories end up changing and sometimes that change is for the better. Even if you don’t think so at the moment.
Your songs come from the heart. I hope your knight in shining armor finds you and your family. And loves you with all of his heart.
You guys are the perfect family the three of you. Your kids have the perfect family because they have you for their Mom. Beautiful song, beautiful voice, beautiful person, beautiful family.
Some songs,man you think or feel like the days are getting easier and the heartaches not hurting like it was, then you hear a song and it all comes flooding right back.Hard to believe it's been 16 months.
Oh my gosh, I am here and tears are falling. We had a hard time as well, as we moved to the USA, I was working so hard , always on the road for my company. My wife was at home taking care of the kids. One day after she was home in Germany, she wanted to stay there, after a long talk, by the time she came back home to US, I realized, I was happy to travel meeting a lot of people and she was home with no one to talk, just the kids. So it broke my hard, to realize I wasn’t there at school for the first game or My sons student of the year celebration. I missed a lot, with a lot of talking and being home more often, we saved our marriage. I am so happy, because I woke up just in time.
Jana, this song is so beautiful and out of your heart ❤️, I could feel the pain. Looking forward is the only thing we can do in this situation, it is easy to say, but it is like it is. You are a beautiful woman with amazing kids, and one day Mr. Right will be in front of you. Don’t search for him, the universe will guide you, just pay attention to the small signs.
Greetings from Germany

Jana has gone through so much so glad she is starting to heal .
Omg lots of tears, But you and your kids are amazing and your a wonderful mom love watching your strength and love build more and more each and everyday God Bless
Very underrated country artist one of the few we have left.
Gave me chills. Amazing woman and mama! You are incredibly strong. You got this 💪
Jana you wrote a song that so many mothers that have had to walk away and do it all on there own have always wanted to hear. Thank you for giving us mothers a song that express how we all feel. You amazing and you have a beautiful family. Stay strong momma we're all here
The prettiest lady in country music 🔥🔥😍😍
Beautiful song and chords and voice .
I’m not crying you are… Totally brought tears to my eyes. Perfect Family is a happy one in my eyes. I can’t relate, but I was raised by a single mom sometimes I wish I grew up like most families. Looking in on some of those you learn they aren’t so perfect. You deserve the best Jana. So do you beautiful children. Beautiful Song. Knocked it out the park. Looking forward to more music from you.
My parents divorced when I was 10, and I stayed with my mom when they split. I know it's not the life you envisioned for yourself, but I promise you - you and your kids will be okay, more than okay. I'll never forget the strength, perseverance, and independence my mom showed throughout that time (and she was in pain for a long time) - and seeing those traits in her impacted me more than having a "normal family structure" ever could. I wouldn't trade growing up with her for the world. She's my hero, and I'm sure your kids will see you in the same light!
I hope someday my boys will understand and feel the same way you do. Thank you for your words of hope especially during moments like today where Im lost again wondering if my children can see my silent struggles and pain.❤️
Oh Jana this is beautiful and speaks to all of us that wanted that perfect family! Happy Healing 💕
This break my heart!!!! She is so strong to even sing this song! Beautiful Jana Kramer!
This song hits me totally different. My husband suffered an anoxic brain injury on 9/24/21 as a result of unexpected cardiac arrest and is now considered minimally conscious. We have two young boys and I would give anything to take this part of our story away… there are so many nights we all cry, even him. You take one line out of this song and it is my life to a T… I’m still fighting for his recovery. Hopefully we get our fairytale one day…
I'm so very sorry ..your story brought tears 😢 to my eyes. I pray for your husband's recovery as well. Keep fighting for Love ❤️ God bless u and ur family.
I personally have never gone through this but I've been following you for a long time and know your story. I'm typing this with tears in my eyes. The three of you make the perfect family.
I love this girl so much ... I would never break her heart
Your songs got me through middle school in 2015, and the fact that you make music that reminds me of then is something I don't see in many artists, but I do in you
Beautiful song. Brought tears to my eyes.
Absolutely beautiful and so relatable
What a beautiful song sung by a beautiful singer
My 5 Kids Are The Most Blessed Gift I Could Have Ever Gotten From Their Fathers! 💯 Love Love This So Much❤️❤️❤️
Incredible! Thank you for sharing your voice and story.♥️
Jana this is beautiful. I've followed your for a long time, with OTH and your music and your podcast. I know you didn't want this for your children, but as a child of divorce myself, I promise that they will benefit more from you happy separately than sad together. The family they have with you is full of love. This song and video could make me cry, but it is perfect. It speaks volumes.
❤️❤️❤️❤️ took me back to a time 14 years ago! My heart aches for you and your family. It does get better!! Paint that smile on, hold your head up high!
Such a beautiful song. Thanks Jana.
Love you Jana and sending you big hugs ♥️
Bawling!!! While I havent been divorced I'm still a single mother of a little girl and this hits home. You are a stunning woman and an amazing mother Jana. I've been a fan since One Tree Hill. You deserve nothing but the best in life. Thank you for writing the story many didn't know they needed to hear.
Absolutely amazing song and video. I have a family member who has had so many ups and downs with men that this hits hard. You are such a strong woman for not only you but your children as well. God bless you
This song is a lovely way for your kids to later see what a strong and beautiful Mom they have.
Wow wow wow!!! Sooo great. Tears!!!!
such a beautiful and honest song
Yes it's beautiful ❤️
This song hit home with me I love all of her songs and she is a great mom and very beautiful!
Jana this song is beautiful ❤️ every person with a broken home can feel the words
It will be okay Jana kids are resilient God made them that way and God has the perfect guy for you ...that will love you the way God loves you
I've been hearing this song on the Highway on Sirius Xm and I has time find out. I know what it's about now. No divorce is easy. I tried to keep mine together but between him on the road and me stuck home with three under 4 it wasn't easy so I made the decision to file for divorce.
You have to be happy yourself so your kids will be happy that's what made me do it and him cheating again that was the final straw. This was 26 years ago and I don't regret my decision.
So Thank You Jana for telling us this beautiful story ❤❤❤
Hola, Fuegooooo I love all your music. It's all about real life the best songs to write
