He said he wrote this for his wife Claudia for a Valentine present when I saw him at the Old Settlers Festival. I saw Claudia sing a song with him at a remarkable show in 1993 at the Caravan of Dreams in Fort Worth before this song and they were married. It was just Rodney and Johnny Jorgenson playing an acoustic show like they were in your living room which was the first of the eight shows I have seen him play.
Hats off to Rodney...and the sound mixer! It's easy to recognize great songwriting talent. Not always so easy to appreciate the men behind the scenes. A good pair of headphones helps.
Heard it was written for his wife Claudia. I have only good things to say about this song, whoever sings it, it is a beautiful song. Better than George Strait's "I Cross My Heart" for a wedding or whatever song!
I'm gonna be here for you baby I'll be a man of my word Speak the language in a voice that you have never heard I wanna sleep with you forever And I wanna die in your arms In a cabin by a meadow where the wild bees swarm And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you And I'll earn your trust making memories of us I wanna honor your mother And I wanna learn from your pa I wanna steal your attention like a bad outlaw I wanna stand out in a crowd for you A man among men I wanna make your world better than it's ever been And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you And I'll earn your trust making memories of us We'll follow the rainbow Wherever the four winds blow And there'll be a new day Comin' your way I'm gonna be here for you from now on This you know somehow You've been stretched to the limits but it's alright now And I'm gonna make you a promise If there's life after this I'm gonna be there to meet you with a warm, wet kiss And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you And I'll earn your trust making memories of us I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you And I'll win your trust making memories of us Songwriters: Rodney Crowell I think this is the first time I've seen Rodney play his guitar using a pick to strum.

Rodney crowell is epic. If im not mistaken he was married to johnny cash's daughter
Keith is pretty good but Rodney is the best. His soul comes out in his music. It is my belief Rodney inspired Keith's style.
O man...the words....

I'm gonna be here for you baby
I'll be a man of my word
Speak the language in a voice that you have never heard
I wanna sleep with you forever
And I wanna die in your arms
In a cabin by a meadow where the wild bees swarm
And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust making memories of us
I wanna honor your mother
And I wanna learn from your pa
I wanna steal your attention like a bad outlaw
I wanna stand out in a crowd for you
A man among men
I wanna make your world better than it's ever been
And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust making memories of us
We'll follow the rainbow
Wherever the four winds blow
And there'll be a new day
Comin' your way
I'm gonna be here for you from now on
This you know somehow
You've been stretched to the limits but it's alright now
And I'm gonna make you a promise
If there's life after this
I'm gonna be there to meet you with a warm, wet kiss
And I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you
And I'll earn your trust making memories of us
I'm gonna love you like nobody loves you
And I'll win your trust making memories of us

I think this is the first time I've seen Rodney play his guitar using a pick to strum.
imagine John Jorgenson backing up on this crushing powerful song ...yea rodney
Beautiful song, love this version, love Keith Urban's version (slightly better), but all versions are amazing, great song
I love this song, and he did a good job on it. I just dont think anyone can do this sonng better than Keith Urban.
Is that the bass player from the band, Great Plains?
Yep, another song that Keith does better than the original
Hahahaha, KB? OMG! Okay stopped laughing... then ku? Just spell out his name, it is Keith Urban!!
what in the world are you talking about?
Fuck that!

Urban isn't country. Tracy Byrd did this song before him.
