- Listen to “Jersey On The Wall (I’m Just Asking)” out now, from my debut album ‘The Lemonade Stand’: TT.lnk.to/TLSAY
Lyric Sample:
There's a jersey on the wall
In a high school gym in my hometown
In the corner by the scoreboard
Where the bleacher seats fold down
27 took the Tigers
To the finals that year
But that's not why it's hanging there
Chorus:
If I ever get to Heaven
You know I got a long list of questions
Like how do You make a snowflake?
Are You angry when the Earth quakes?
How does the sky change in a minute?
How do You keep this big rock spinnin'?
And why can't You stop a car from crashin'?
Forgive me, I'm just askin'

This song is breathtaking.
Indeed it is
She's really good
Funny seeing you here. And yes, I just heard this song, and I adore it.
I was just thinking grady Smith would love this then I scrolled down and here you are!
Are you going to to me a video on this
I want to add that my daughter was in a car accident 9 years ago. We were contacted by authorities to go to the hospital. She was in critical condition, brain injury, punctured lung, crushed pelvis...the list of injuries too long. She had been thrown 125 feet from the vehicle. Air ambulance took her to the trauma center. She was in a coma but days later came out of it. She was alive. It was a long road of recovery but we have her here today. That night we were told she wouldn't make it and committed her into His care. He didn't stop her car from crashing but I believe He did give her a second chance. She hadn't gone to church in years but about 24 months after the accident she told me God spared her for a reason and started going to church again. I drove my daughter home tonight,heard this song and now you know the rest of the story.
I'm so happy to hear your daughter survived that horrible accident
@@jamiemarcyniuk5290 Thank you very that very thoughtful comment. We are grateful each and every day too.
If only everyone else was that lucky. And the fact that we're not is why I don't believe in God. I'm happy for your daughter but it's fucking unfair that she got to live and so many others didn't, under the same conditions. Even if God is real, I'll never worship him for that reason.
This makes me cry tears of appreciation and thankfulness. xoxo
L J I see your point, but every decision god makes is for a reason, he has the bigger picture in mind.
I heard a part of this on tiktok and wanted to hear the the whole song. And the messages is beautiful. I just lost my Principal to Suicide this month and I loved her very much. This means so much.
Barbara shamblen i feel like suicidal adults are overlooked because we are always worried about children and we should be but those adults are hurting too and we don’t see it because they are so much better at looking out together
I came from tiktok too and I'm sorry to hear that.
Barbara shamblen same a part of this song is all over tik tok sorry for ur loss
Aiden Gilleo What did i say wrong?
Aiden Gilleo Attitude* and I didn’t have one. Second of all i’m a woman. and third of all, what did I say that was wrong?
This song really hits home for me. On 11/6/14, any mothers worst nightmare became my reality. I lost my 19 yr old son in a single car accident. Exactly one mile from my door steps to his wreak site. Even the part when she sings " somewhere there's a mother who stopped going to church, bc your plan stopped making since down here on earth." It has been going on 6 years now. I don't feel as if I am any better today then I was the second the accident happened. I do pray often that when my time here is done. I am called upon to go home. That God will tell me why the accident had to happen. Why was my son not one of the lucky ones? Why was my son not given a second chance at life? Was he needed in heaven for that big of a purpose? To all the other moms that walk in the same shoes as me. May God keep his healing hands on your shattered hearts.
Since your son cannot live out his life maybe you can live it out for him if that makes any sense.
My daughter committed suicide 5 years ago . I'm the mom that stopped going to church. I'm still asking. Love her voice and this song.
Hugs to you. xoxo
Never give up on faith. Seek peace. Sometimes not until our own passing, will we understand. Prayers.....
My name is David I almost committed suicide 11 years ago when I was 16. God rescued me it has been hard a journey but God has never left me and he has never left you.
My prayers are with you. Don't give up on our Lord.
I’m sorry
Canada should be proud to have a wholesome, beautiful singer like this! 🇨🇦❤️
We have lots of great singers..
Don't talk nonsense shit with comments like this.
Canada has lots of good singers.
Why do you write nonsense comments like that.
One of many great Canadian artists.
This song destroyed me this morning. I'm not a cryer and I was DESTROYED. What a gem she is.
This one and drowning kill me every time
I learned something several years ago when my friend’s young daughter in law passed leaving behind her young son & husband. All my friend Ann could say was “why did God take her”. After prayer & fasting & asking God what to say to her, I heard this” I am not the taker of life but the giver of life. I received her, home. I am the receiver! She is in your future, in your past and in your present through your memories. Keep believing, she was important to Him & you are just as important to Him🙏 None of us want to ever walk in your shoes. May we each pray for the comfort of God for each of you who have to live with loved ones going before you.🙏❤️❣️
@@barbaradeak2624 this comment was hard to read, as I have lost someone to severe cancer. She had it in every fibre of her being and the night I was told she wasn't doing so good, I prayed for God to either take her away from her misery or heal her completely. Two days later, she passed. It still breaks my heart, but I know she's not suffering or in pain anymore. I dream about her a lot, but I have yet to figure out why. I would like to know what the dreams are about though. I loved her like a mother, although she was only 15 years older than me, she was still an important person in my life.

I am a Mama of 6 beautiful Children. 6 days ago my youngest daughter tried taking her life. God has purposes for her here. Prayers please. :'(
I'm so sorry to hear this. As a mother of 4 I absolutely couldn't imagine what you must be going through while still making sure she's not going to do anything like that again. My heart hurts for you. I will definitely pray for you & your daughter. Hang in there.
I feel your pain my oldest daughter almost succeeded in taking her life last fall I thank God everyday that I get to spend with her children are so precious I'm grateful for everyday I get to spend with them
God isn’t real
@officeboy89 You're a gross human, for you to comment on a post about a mother and her child. I bet you believe in the devil! He's all over you. How bout that officeboy89?? Go on open that door, and he will gladly walk right in, he apparently already has. Don't quit your day, job, officeboy. I'll pray for you.
As someone who knew and played basketball with Danielle I just wanted to tell you how beautiful this song was ❤️ and that i'm sure she would have loved it.
BAM Danielle is who the song is about.
Im so sorry you lost your friend. It's heartbreaking .
I researched this song cause I felt it sounded like it was based on truth. I am sure Danielle would have loved this song. Such a sad story and I'm sorry for the loss of your friend.
From new Brunswick bit living in Alberta this song hits close to home on so many levels seen tenielle live she is amazing. Keep your heads high grande manan.
CstGeorgeGreen so Tennile went to a small island in Canada a couple years ago and then came back a year later and the valedictorian and basketball player Danielle passed away in a car crash so Tennile wrote her this song
I'm from New Brunswick and know Grand Manan and it is a small tight knit community. Unfortunately tragedy can hit anywhere. I lost my brother when I was 3 , he was 6. He was stabbed to death outside a community hockey rink in Northen Ontario (unsolved). I often wonder what life would have been like had he lived. My Dad stopped going to church for many,many years after, because he couldn't understand how a merciful God could let something like this happen.
This song has hit every nerve with me and it says everything I’ve ever needed to say . My dad died when I drunk driver hit him head on almost 14 years ago. I struggle every day thinking “ why couldn’t you stop that car from crashing ?!” I struggle during the holidays and this came right in time . Thank you so much Tennile
Sorry for your loss girl
Jamie Marcyniuk Thank you so much

Momo is the only place I have not heard anything from since this one I have not yet been a bit more things
Tenille is such a great talent. God Bless her❤️❤️❤️❤️
A Canadian beauty in lyrics and inner beauty. Thank you so much young lady.
Giving people hope that real passionate music still exists. God bless ❤️🙏
I havn’t lost a loved one from a accident but these comments are just hurting me.
Righttt tho
I know 😭😞
Rjgeuggeig😂😂😂😂
right
ikr
If it helps any of you, He just decided that he needed them to come back home. You'll see them again one day soon
Thank you so much for this beautiful song. We lost my granddaughter at 20 weeks gestation, and I truly am lost and my faith is shaken. Thank you for allowing me to open m heart to God. I never knew I could be too sad to pray.
Oh dear Lord help us all as we need you now more than ever. I know you gave us free will but we need your guidance, we need you dear father. Amen
I’m 46 and lost a number of high school friends to vehicle accidents! It still hurts! Great song! I pray my girls never experience this pain but they have already experienced the loses to suicide, cancer, and other medical issues, some to COVID! I just pray this coming year is easier!
I call this my holly song, we lost our granddaughter in Jan/19 at only 8 months old. I will have questions when I get to heaven!!! Thank you for all your beautiful songs. Congratulations on your ccma awards.❤❤
Hard pill to swallow, I know this because I have asked the same questions myself over and over again. The simple answer is faith. All we have to do is look around us at all of his glory and remember that the flesh is flawed. We were given free will for a reason, Life is not a game so that is not what I am saying here, but a game is not fun if the cards are stacked in your favor. Our almighty God Wants us to love him because we believe in him. When you really stop and think he is not that different from us. He wants to be loved and excepted just as much as we do. I hope this message reaches at least one person
I just listened to this song after hearing the tragic news about Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna, and the seven others who died in a helicopter crash on January 26, 2020. My heartfelt prayers go out to Vanessa Bryant and their three remaining daughters and the other families who lost loved ones. 🙏🏻🏀😢

I was listening to this song on the bus on the way to school and later my grandpa picked me up and told me my two cousins passed away in a car crash early that morning. 😭😭this song will hit different every time I hear it. R.I.P Daniel and McKenna.
I am so sorry for your loss, I want to assure you that God has a plan and a purpose and you can rest in him. I've recently experienced a couple losses in my family and some days I just wish I could call them up and it pains me that I can't, so I just pray and I pray that you will just pray with me.
ella faith yes I will sorry for your loss and hope your family stays strong and safe during these hard times.

This song was on my country music playlist this morning as I was making breakfast. It absolutely stopped me in my tracks and took my breath. I lost a wonderful friend the summer I was 15. He crashed his vehicle and passed away at the age of 17. One of our star football players in high school. That following school year, the starters carried his jersey onto the field at the beginning of every game. I'm 32, now, almost 33, and the lyrics of this song bring back all of those memories and questions. Thank you for writing this.
Thanks for sharing this, Meg. we’re working on a special Jersey on the Wall video project right now to honour people like your friends. If you’d like to share their stories for the project, you can share them at this link here. You can get more information on how to get involved when you text my road phone at 615-492-3130. Sending a big hug out there!
Beautiful song! After reading some of the painful comments I knew I had to share this. I have lost several siblings and relatives to tragedy. The first almost killed me, it was my little sister who died at barely 18 years old, after 12 days in a coma following a motorcycle accident in which she was the passenger. I was angry with God at first. I had begged and groveled for mercy during those 12 days and he took her anyway. Eventually, I worked through it and came to the place where I knew he must have had a good reason, and that someday he would tell me why. A few years would pass before someone told me,” I have a message for you, I think you are mad at God and maybe you should reconcile that”. I thought, I’m not mad at God, but I sat down and prayed and had a conversation with him, during this, I came to an atonement, if you will. And I realized this is God I am talking to, the creator of all things including me, and that was his sole he took back that day, lent to me for a time, a wonderful time. He did not owe me anything and did not need to explain anything, he gave me a gift that blessed my life for the time I had her in it, and has blessed me with so many other wonderful soles, how could I complain or be bitter about this gift. During this atonement I received an incredible anointing (too long of a story in this already long story) Since then I was more capable and in a better place to handle the losses that would come. If you have read this far I think you are the reason I was compelled to post this. God bless and keep you.
When I hear this song all I can think of is the tragic 2018 Humbolt Bronco bus crash. RIP
I thought the same thing😢
@@denisesmith6326 Me too
Yep
atvking535 same here
I thought the very same thing as my niece lost her son in the Humboldt bus crash. He was #12 Conner Lukan. Gone but never forgotten!
This really hits home, I knew Danielle, I had met her that summer before the accident ❤️ rest easy #9🏀
I play basketball and I am number 9. RIP
who was danielle can i hear her or his story?
@@audrinachai She lived on this Island called Grand Manan in New Brunswick, Canada. She was a talented basketball player, loved by everyone. Unfortunately she passed away in a car accident. She was a lovely girl, I’m glad I got to meet her because she was nothing but kind to me
Absolutely in love with her voice, please keep it up!

This song hits me!!!my friend recently passed away Sept 18!!! He was only 17 he was in a car accident and he played football and everything this song says it reminds me of him very much!!! I miss him every day!! But I know he is in a better place!!! #94 🏈#blalock #maverickstrong #LLH
All my family that has recently died was from car crashes minus my uncle
My best friend died in a car accident May 15. He was 17 too. Last week of his junior year. Fly high #5. LLC
I'm so sorry to hear about your friend, Jasmine. Sending you a big hug ❤️Thanks for telling me about #94.
Cant explain how this song makes me feel. I had three friends from high school die in high school from a small town in Oklahoma. Song rips me apart thinking about their parents thinking about where they would be now if they were alive, and why did they have to die so young. I am 46 now and still feel the same today as I did they day each of them died in separate incidents. All great kids all great athletes and scholars.

This kills me.....I lost my son 5/9/2016.....coming up on 4yrs......I heard this and instantly loved it..!! I love your words....yes there are millions of moms down here that cannot figure out what are purpose is any longer without our precious child....it's truly a life sentence....:( Thank U for this song.....
You're so engaged with your fans, Tennile. I love and appreciate that. Not to mention, you have the best hair in Country Music.
haha why thank ya!!!! Thanks for the note and for listening out there :)
I’m only still here by the grace of God after fighting two Pituitary brain tumors for a rare condition Cushing’s life threatening along with Crohn’s Disease with many surgeries. All forced me to lose career with Police helping others. So many close calls when all wrote me off even Doctors. Have lost so many friends and loved ones where sometimes I ask God why them and not me. One day we will see the picture and have to hang onto purpose. Also, somebody’s daughter hits here too because I feel like people judge with my illness like a person on the curb. Where I’m somebody’s son. I always try to help anyone with the little I have. Thank you for these songs. I’ll be seeing you perform tonight in New Orleans. 🙏
Every song Tenille writes has so much heart and empathy in them. Such a great artist!
My sister died in a car crash and this song just hits different, what a beautiful voice 🥹
I was in a bad wreck not sure why I survived ? This song hits hard.
I really like the music but the lyrics... just about everyone can relate. So personal and universal at the same time.

@@tennilletownes1895 thank you so much for your most gracious offer. I didn’t forget about your music last year, but this song in particular was more than I could handle on top of everything else going on - especially personally. I see the links above. Please forgive me but I don’t participate in social media (with the exception of YT if that’s “social media”). Of course I will follow your music!

I’m just now hearing this song. The first time I heard this song I broke down crying. On May 3, a boy I go to school with was shot and killed. He was such a kind and happy kid, who was only 18. Hearing this song breaks my heart because I will always think of him when I hear it.
I heard this song today, 2 hours before a 16 year old from my community passed away from a car accident. What a powerful song!
Each time I hear this song and all the testimony here, I just can't stop sharing tears. I am fighting for my life and that of my two lovely children that God gave me, I am facing a terrible false allegation of sexual assault, and hearing this song my heart bleeds for everyone in pain like myself crying and tears oooooooooooo
I was in a car accident that almost, almost took my life. After losing my Dad then my mom 4 months later, I list my husband to cancer. So it happens in 3's. I hit a tree, jaws of life were brought in. Foot completely crushed, ribs broken. They got me to the hospital, I wasn't fighting for my life, I gave in until I overheard a nurse after two operations to the Dr about how this patient wasn't going to make it. I remember thinking Wow the person going to die, then the nurse proceeded to say the name, I was floored she was talking of me. I remember thinking sorry God I love you but I'm not ready yet. That day I fought had to relearn how to walk all over again. God gave me my life. This song is exactly what I felt why can't you stop a car from crashing. We will never know. The will to live played a very important factor. I love God but he wasn't ready for me to be with my late husband or my parents. To this day I get pennies from heaven. That's what this song means to me. I did survive when I shouldn't of. God is good
How many of us of us who lost a love too early in life ask these questions? I do ask at least one of them. 💔♫♬♬ Love this song. ❤
I lost my great grandma. I was 6 I think. She was very special to me and we went to her house alot.
I lost my aunt but I have a lot but I never got to meet her
And I’m on my dad acc

For anyone who does not know the story behind it. There was a girl in Grand Manan, New Brunswick Canada who was involved in a crash with 4 other people in the summer of 2014, the 4 people with her survived but she died, her name was Danielle Park. She now has a tournament named after her which my school attends every year because we are the closest highschool, and I do believe that jersey is still hanging up in their school gym.
I am from Blacks Harbour. I remember the accident very well. Heartbreaking.
melissa scott I am also from Blacks Harbour!
It is till this day still hanging what happened is they were not totally sober while driving down a very steep hill in wheal cove they were going down and she was on the back of an open jeep at the back like a truck the car crashed into a tree and flipped over killing her hunny.
I listen to this song a few times every year. I am sure that I listened to it 50 times when I first heard it on CBC Radio in Halifax. I was approaching the MacKay Bridge to head to Halifax and the song just shook my emotions. Such great writing and Tenille delivered it in such a stirring manner in her performance. Great song.
This song speaks to me.
It’s harsh when a young bright light goes dark in an instant.
My uncle died with 3 friends, in a car crash, when he was 16.
There was a plaque with all 4 boys hanging on the wall - for a life time. Well 2 lifetimes - been there for double the years he lived.
I always remember him in his cross country jersey. He loved athletics - wrestling, triathlons, anything.
I too have questions upon arrival in heaven.
This is an amazing song. Thank you for asking God the questions for us.
Thank you for listening.
In loving memory of Travis Richard Adams 1977-2020 ❤️
My lovely aunty got cancer in 2016 and i honestly haven’t seen some strong one like her even when the doctors told her about it she was smiling and joking ,,, today is 15/11/2019 she is in the Intensive care shes still fighting that damn cancer but we r just waiting coz we know she is done .. shes smiling , hard breathing , so sad and painful to c her but asking god to give her peaceful and mercy in the last hours or days .. i dont know what to say but i love u so much aunty u were and still my sweet angel 👼 its very hard to c u like that ... LOVE U SO MUCH 😭
She passed away 4 days ago 😞😞😞😞
@@bigsmoke9444 sorry for your loss
Heart wrenching song and comments. Tenille expresses doubt that she's going to heaven by singing "If I ever get to heaven". Don't doubt the gospel truth. Jesus was God incarnated. He walked among us sinners; performed miracles to prove who he was. Then his people nailed him, their messiah, to the cross, and his blood was shed to wash away all sin. Three days later he arose from the dead. If you don't believe the gospel with all your heart, dig deeper into the scriptures until you do. He wants you to live forever in the Kingdom of God. Praise Jesus our Lord and Saviour
this hits hard because we recently lost a football player /friend/someone’s loved son and brother to a car crash and on that morning nothing was the same

This song! These lyrics are going to touch people forever.Powerful message.Tenille Townes, thank you for this gift you have given to the world. My heart goes out to the families and friends who deal with these tragedies of their loved ones that haunt them in this way.❤
Having lost a son 15 yrs ago in a motorcycle accident. I've asked the same question many times. The song is breath taking. I wish you much success.
Wrestled with the answer for weeks and submit the following. "We are neither robots or His playthings,but rather by His grace, we are cherished loved ones given this space in time to find ourselves and our place with God" From Jan 2/20 Presbyterian Daily Devotional-Rod Marshall Cheltenham Gloucester England.
My husband passed away 3 years ago to this day in a car accident. He was 24. His high school jersey number was also 9. I have cried many times listening to this song and just got chills watching the video.

May 26, 2019. 5 days after I watched you walk across the football field to get your diploma. I opened Snapchat to the most heartbreaking news. You were gone. I had so many questions. I still do. Like why did you go in such a way, at least you never felt the pain. The impact is what took you from us. You were 18. A fresh high school graduate. Had a promising future and you died in a car crash. Everyday I miss you and I wonder why you left so soon. I miss you Austin.

I'm in the process of watching my elderly mum die slowly. She no longer eats and spends her days and nights sedated, crying out in pain when she wakes. I know she's being held safely in God's hand and knowing that He has all the answers is comforting. Even if I can't understand it this side of Heaven. ❤
I work in construction and we always have the radio on, different station everyday, but it's on. I can remember the first time I heard this song so well. It was a sunny day, not super warm, but still beautiful. We had some country station on (btw I'm not a huge country radio fan) and as soon as it started I was interested. The line "why couldn't you stop that car from crashing" hit me super hard. It brought tears to my eyes, and still does everytime I hear it, because less then two months after we graduated a friend of mine and her little brother both died in a car accident while they were out with their cousins getting ice cream. I can remember going to her wake. I'd never meet her parents before. As I walked toward the coffin to see her for the last time I felt a tap on my shoulder, it was her mom. She looked at me and said "You're the one who always took her hiking aren't you?" I said I was, tears forming in my eyes. She saw them coming, looked at me and said "She always loved going on those hikes". We hugged and cried for what felt like eternity. When I stepped back I said "I'll never forget her, not a soul here today will ever forget how beautiful and kind your daughter was". She hugged me again and we went out separate ways. I think about her all the time, especially since I started listening to Tenille Townes, and this song in particular, more often. I hope she's been with me on every trail I've hiked in the last 11 years. I miss you. I love you. Forever 18. Rest Easy Beautiful.
This young woman really is something special. I'm sad that I just today heard of her!

@@tennilletownes1895I just saw you open for Shania Twain in Winnipeg, you put on a great show. Happy I went even by myself 👍👌
My cousin showed me this song ♥️. We all recently lost one of our cousins in a car crash a little over a year ago. It was so rough on the whole family. My cousin just had this spark to her. She was an amazing person and her life was just starting ♥️♥️🌻... This song hit home run for me 😭😭💔
R.I.P. Adri 🌻♥️ We love you so much and miss you even more everyday.
My God, her voice is amazing! The words to her song make me keep asking why? This world needs more amazing people like her.

Lost my brother in a car accident 17 years ago. He was 16. Played football. They have his (and two others who died) number up on the football tower at the field and my mother has his jersey. Love this song.

I love how this song shows that curiosity isn’t must for children, just people who have questions. I also love how indirectedness of the song tells a story. It’s very creative.
That’s because there is a true story behind it

I lost my 21 yr old son in car accident August 17, 2018. I heard this on radio this morning at work. I had to hold back tears, thinking of my son and too asking God why?
My big sister passed away almost 3 weeks ago..long story, but we didn't see it coming..It was something I bever dreamt of. Such a gentle soul, can't help but ask why? Why couldn't he just make things okay. Rip Big sis. Love you. I'll take care of your little girl. 💕💕

I remember when Danielle passed away it was horrible. she was such a good person she never deserved any of the pain she went through. I also remember when Tenille came to the school and performed. I have a lot of respect for her
I saw Tenille perform this song, and a couple others in Nashville a couple years ago. Just her and her guitar. She was fantastic! I enjoyed the songs much more with just her and her guitar. I know very few singer/songwriters take the Gillian Welch approach, but the more who do the better the music will get. IMO. But the music industry will never fall in line, and hopefully musicians like Tennille will continue to create beautiful music that can be heard through live venues, or on TH-cam, or on their own channels. Music is a gift from God exploited by Man. Keep asking Tennille! Matthew 7:7
Damn, a kid from my old rival high school was a junior and died in a car wreck the night before they played my alma mater in the yearly county rivalry game. This song hits different after this, Rest Is Peace #14!
Tenille, I saw you singing this song tonight on a tv program about The Bluebird Cafe....WOW....great songwriting and singing.

My Grandson committed suicide not long after graduating. I told everyone that when I get to Heaven, God's got a lot of explaining to do. You summed it up in this song! Got to buy your CD!

Very powerful song about how we all feel when we lose a loved one too early. Thank-you, Tenille!
Tenille,
We all ask questions like this from time to time, keep your head in the good book and have faith girl!✝️
Already played this song several times on my syndicated radio show. Great, meaningful and obviously a personal point being made.
Thank you so much for believing in it, Alan!
Absolutely love the song and thank you for being so kind to answer, Best of luck with it.
We sang this at church today. A beautiful song that is almost unbearably sad. Everyday is a gift, and remembering those no longer with me helps me remember to be grateful. Thank you Tenille for writing this song.
New Brunswick the most Beautiful place on Earth . Thank you.
I can't wait for the day I enter heaven and am surrounded by my dad, boyfriend, 2 best friends and grandparents.... I miss them all so much. Tight lines in heaven
Thank you for this, my family and I were personal friends of Danielle and her family so we are so grateful for you thank you.

Lost my best friend when I was in high school. It's been 8 years and it doesn't hurt any less. I miss him. I hadnt thought about him in awhile until I came across this song on Spotify. Had to pull over bc I was crying so hard. I have a daughter now he would love her and I wish he would have gotten the chance to meet her. 2012 lost a good one and my world hasn't been the same since. I love you Jacob and I hope heaven is treating you well. I miss you.
A "Canadian daughter" (heart and flag here)!! Absolutely adore the unique inflections in your voice Tenille and I love the messages in your songs!! Can't wait for you to do a show here in Nova Scotia!! Congratulations on your success to date and best wishes for the future!!
Aw thank you for the kind words. Sure means a lot to me. Love that you're a Canadian girl and can't wait to cross paths in Nova Scotia down the road soon!
We had one of these unfortunate events my last year of high school.So there are a lot of people who can relate to this. Great song!
I remember seeing this video when it first came out. I’m sorry for everyone who’s lost someone close to them. They are looking down on us with a big smile on their face. When you feel lonely, think of the happy moments you had together and do what would make them happy.
I lost someone few years ago, it’s been overwhelming and no one in my family talks about it. A lot of my happiness left when they did. The things I used to love became pointless because they weren’t there. The last time I saw them hurts so bad because I could have hugged them and I didn’t, I just stayed in the car. I relate to these lyrics a little differently. Just because the words don’t match up with the story doesn’t make the meaning go away. Gods plan doesn’t make sense anymore, and church has lost a lot of it’s importance even though I know it is important. I do have a lot of questions, one of them being why he doesn’t stop the car from crashing, literally or metaphorically. I just wanna say thank you for this song. Listening to it I actually cried for the first time a while.
tennile, you are my idol. i have been singing since i was four years old and you are the person i look up to. your songs all have meaning. ilysm you are the best and you are my hero
so i was driving and listening to this in a great mood and for some reason i just started crying. very well done
I have been replaying this song nonstop. I just found out that my best friend was killed in a car accident. Right before she started her senior year of high school. It's hard knowing that we had so many plans, and we won't get to experience them. But, God had a reason for taking her at such a young age.
3 years ago me and my friends were in a car accident on the highway. It was our junior year and one of our best friends passed. This song makes me feel things in ways words don’t. I asked myself why her and not me for 3 years. But after listening to this song it made me realize maybe he gave me a second chance at life. I started going to church again trying to figure out why he let her die. I’ll never know the answer to that but I’m trying my best still to this day. I love you Kacie and I’m always thinking of you❤️ 2/3/18 #23
