Better Man
Journey of Love: Unveiling the Meaning Behind 'Better Man' by The Wildcard
Lyrics
On a long drive home
Reflecting on a lengthy journey back home
A warm breeze in my hair
Feeling a warm breeze with hair blowing
You beside me, gorgeous soul
Being accompanied by a beautiful and kind soul
What a time we have shared
Recalling shared moments and experiences
Oh, we shared
Emphasizing the depth of shared connection
What a life we had
Reflecting on the life together
With some plays on the way
Experiencing challenges and successes along the way
With your ideas and my plan
Combining individual ideas and plans
Don't forget me, I pray
Expressing a plea not to be forgotten
Mm, I'm praying
Reiterating the act of prayer for remembrance
When my knees get dirty
Describing a metaphorical state of difficulty
And my mind gets sad
Expressing sadness and emotional turmoil
Though memories get blurry
Acknowledging the fading of memories
They're all I have
Recognizing the importance of preserved memories
Your smile from the picture frames
Noting the impact of the partner's smile in photos
Makes me feel a little ashamed
Feeling a sense of guilt or regret related to the smile
I'm high on believing
Expressing a strong belief
That you were a better man
Believing that the partner was a superior person
You knew all the ways
Recognizing the partner's knowledge and skills
To hold and comfort in sunrise
Appreciating the partner's ability to provide comfort
You were there for all the days
Highlighting the partner's consistent presence
To bring hope to my eyes
Acknowledging the partner's role in instilling hope
Hope to my eyes
Reinforcing the impact of hope in the narrator's eyes
I'm the one left aside
Feeling left alone or abandoned
Desert island in my heart
Comparing emotions to being stranded on a deserted island
Yet again you told me to try
Recalling advice to attempt overcoming challenges
I wish I was that smart
Expressing a desire for the wisdom possessed by the partner
Mm, oh, so smart
Acknowledging the partner's intelligence
When my knees get dirty
Repeating the metaphor of dirty knees and a troubled mind
And my mind gets sad
Reiterating feelings of sadness and mental turmoil
Though memories get blurry
Emphasizing the persistence of blurry memories
They're all I have
Highlighting the importance of those memories
Your smile from the picture frames
Revisiting the impact of the partner's smile in photos
Makes me feel a little ashamed
Reiterating a sense of shame related to the smile
I'm high on believing
Reaffirming a strong belief
That you were a better man
Believing in the partner's superior character
Your smile from the picture frames
Recalling the impact of the partner's smile
Makes me feel a little ashamed
Expressing lingering feelings of shame
I'm high on believing
Reiterating a strong belief
That you were a better man
Maintaining the belief in the partner's superiority
Your smile from the picture frames
Reflecting on the impact of the partner's smile
Makes me feel a little ashamed
Expressing a continued sense of shame
I'm high on believing
Reaffirming a strong belief
That you were a better man
Continuing to believe in the partner's superior character
