Lyrics:
If I could write a letter to me
And send it back in time to myself at 17
First I'd prove it's me by saying look under your bed
There's a Skoal can and a Playboy no one else would know you hid
And then I'd say I know its tough
When you break up after seven months
And yeah I know you really liked her and it just don't seem fair
All I can say is pain like that is fast and it's rare
And oh you got so much going for you going right
But I know at 17 it's hard to see past Friday night
She wasn't right for you
And still you feel like there's a knife sticking out of your back
And you're wondering if you'll survive
You'll make it through this and you'll see
You're still around to write this letter to me

“Make sure the tank is full. On second thought, forget it. That one turns out kinda cool”
Such an amazing lyric
Plus how true it's, think we all have experiences that if we could go back we would but then the experience was memorable and wouldn't change it.
Agreed!
This song still kills me. I type this at 45 with tears in my eyes. Thank you, Brad Paisley.
Same here. I first heard it in my 20s and here I am at 35. Still crying over this song. So so good
@@daniellenelson3263 I think it is one of his most heartfelt songs, relatable, honest, and tinged with overwhelming nostalgia. It's one of those songs that you understand and get the more you age with the passage of time.
It's been one of my most beloved songs and certainly my favorite by Brad Paisley.
Jack - I'm 56 and it gets me too - so darn good and I've lived about everything in this song!
Me too 🥹
Same at 62 😢
This song hits me like a ton of bricks. Brad was a few years ahead of me at John Marshall High School. Seeing this video of old friends and my hometown brings back so much. I'm so happy he made it big. Couldn't happen to a better guy. I remember him playing an assembly at my high school before he ever made it. I knew he had the talent. Way to go buddy!
Love reading true stuff about great people. Just by you writing this GP you seem to be great as well! Thanks for sharing.
That's so rad. Was he great at guitar then, too?
@@j.s.thomasesquire2388 yes he was good.
I know it's not much of a comparison between the three but Randy Moss being a West Virginia Native and Chad Pennington not a West Virginia Native but like Randy Moss Chad Pennington played College Football for Marshall University before joining The NFL. But I like I said I don't know if either of them will compare to Brad Paisley because Football and Music Careers are two different animals. But Randy Moss and Chad Pennington did put my hometown of Huntington West Virginia on the map to be noticed by people because of their football careers. And The 1970s Marshall University Plane Crash that killed the juniors and seniors of the team also put Huntington West Virginia on the map for people also. Just wish people would stop seeing all West Virginians as back wood and uneducated hillbillies.
WILD WONDERFUL WEST VIRGINIA!
the lyric about his teacher always hits home. growing up with severe ADHD, school was extremely difficult and a lot of teachers didn't support or care about me the way the did for their other students. but there's a handful of teachers that took extra time in class, gave me any extra credit work to raise my grades, and overall just had more patience with me. those people had such an impact on me and taught me the importance of asking for help and believing in your strengths and showing compassion to your own weaknesses. teachers are all of our unsung heroes.
Teachers are way under appreciated. They are literally teaching the next generations and they get garbage pay with minimal benefits and still invest their own money to support some class projects. No doubt they are heros. Without them i wouldn't be where im at. Not a millionaire but found what im good at and live a comfortable life.
@Brad Paisley you cant fool me fake brad paisley ! get outta here!!
Not my experience at all... My high school sweetheart and I got torn apart by the world. Heart broke, never lost that pain.... Now its 18 years later. Good news is, she felt it too.... We will be married next year.
***** Why should you care to comment on this?
Damn boy, you oughta go back to minecraft,
Cameron Berger grow a pair
***** dude get a better life
***** why are you going to hell then bud😂
Stacy Tate thats good to hear
I always finish crying everytime when I listen: " I guess I'll see you in the mirror
When you're a grown man..."
ps go hug aunt rita every chance you can gets to me everytime!
Thank you for following my page , Support you showered on me, I hope you never stop listening to my music…I’ll love to honor you by giving you my personal information for a private conversation if that’s ok by you..
I'm 14 and Iisten to this song almost everyday. It reminds you of important things. When you're having a rough time it teaches you life goes on even when it feels impossible. It teaches you that yeah there is a ton of things you get when you grow up but you always look back on these years because it is your foundation for life. My favorite line in this song is the one where he tells himself to hug his Aunt every chance he gets. Teaches you one of the most important things in life: Love your family with all your heart because what if tomorrow something happened to them or you? Would you really want to end on a bad note with your family? This is truly my favorite song and will always be.
same
That's true what you said about this song it makes feel like playing it on TH-cam cuz my girl didn't reply and she said she couldn't talk much to me today so she didn't reply no more after awhile so this song is something i play my related to my problem i got wit my girl tonight.😒
How's it being 20?
r/Iam14andthisisdeep
You’re 20 now bro how is it?
First time I heard this song I cried I wish I heard this in highschool. I struggled with family, being socially awkward never fitting in in highschool, im 21 I still have issues and depression but a lot of people do. But I joined the military and even though I struggle I have a lot of good times yes I still face depression but I dont cry anymore. I have good friends that are like family now that helped me mend and heal overtime. Im a lot more social go to parties have a good time. I losten to this song and realize how true it is and how much stronger ive become. He put a lot of heart into this song and it is truly is amazing. I will keep fighting on and will not accept defeat and the day I do completley overcome the things I struggle with ill look back and smile at how far ive come. Just believe in yourself you can make it through
When I first heard this song I cried as well... I never fitt in highschool, ever. I was the weird one, and.. the one people laugh about. I cried a lot... and I was not strong, but... I wouldn´t change anything... the things people did or say to me are the ones wich made me a better person... I´m 25 now and I don´t cry anymore, I have the best friends, i finish college... I am strong because of those people.
Im in high school right now its hard everything i do doesnt seem to help all the stress from school getting to me is causing depression , there is this bully always putting me down making me feel worthless every day . I feel like i never will belong at school
And i just lost my best friend since kindergarten everybody says its her loss but it still really hurts i was always there for her . High School can be horrible as can be
I am a senior in highschool right now and times have been thought for me. I have never been the most popular, or the prettiest girl, or have the most friends. But I have enough to make me happy. I've met amazing people and have learned so much about myself. I am not the same person I was 5 years ago. People I hated in 9th grade are now some of my closest friends. Sometimes highschool is shitty and unfair, but things tend to work out. I look back at all the people who put me down and told me I would never amount to anything and now all I have to say to them is fuck you I am going to college with scholarships. I have schools fighting for me. Things get better and years from now you will look back and say I really got upset over that? Wow I'm glad I didn't let those people effect my life. I know it's easier said than done but trust me bigger and better things are coming for you. Some of my best friends I met doing sports in high school. These are people I wouldn't have ever talked to outside of athletics. But now one of them is like my brother he's amazing. But if I let people put me down and discourage me I would have never met him. I know it's hard and I know it seems like everyone says this but it's true. What happens in high school doesn't define who you are or what life holds for you. It really doesn't. I know it's hard to think about the future when right now everything is so crappy but please trust me, everything will get better. The feeling you get when you can look your bullies in the eyes and say improved you wrong is the greatest moment you will have and it is a great feeling. Remember, you don't have tot prove anything to them. What happens to you doesn't affect them in anyway if you succeed it doesn't affect them, you fail it doesn't affect them either. Do what makes you happy and what will get you through your high school years bey case as long as your making yourself happy that's all that matters. I wish someone told me this when I was younger, I need to do what makes me happy and not worry about what everyone else is saying or doing, in the end if I'm happy and I'm succeeding dies it really matter what people say or think? I learned the hard way that it doesn't matter.. I don't know if this will help you but I truly hope someone reads this and it helps them!
Danielle Leffand That's a great story :). one of my favorite quotes is "judging a person doesn't define who they are it defines who you are"
I'm almost 76, and I would love to write that letter to me at 17...Yes, you come back from Vietnam, and you do marry the girl of your dreams...and so so much more...
My God, if I ever have kids, I want to write them letters pretending it's them later in life to help them along through the rough patches. (especially the assuming you're wrong and dad was right part)
I want to do little videos where they ask and answer questions and at 18 I put it together so they can see how they've grown and changed over the years
This is next level big brain moves. Gonna have to steal this plan
@@fiddlestx123 Thank you for following my page , Support you showered on me, I hope you never stop listening to my music…I’ll love to honor you by giving you my personal information for a private conversation if that’s ok by you..
Respect
I am listening to this song on repeat. What I'm doing in my English class is kind of backwards from this song though. I am in 7th grade and our Literature assignment is to write a letter to our future self, and my Literature teacher will give it to us on our graduation day. I am truly blessed to have a teacher like her because she puts so much work into our classes and is so devoted to her job.
So it's your senior year now correct?
The Real Jerry Rock no jr. 7 plus 4 is 11
ME TOO I USED TO LISTEN TO THIS SONG WHILE I WAS STUDYING FOR MY SPELLING AND MATH TESTS.
i did that
you get the letter yet ?
hits home HARD. Brad Paisley is one of few country singers who came about when he did that i'll look back on when i'm older and say he's still one of the greatest. he puts feeling into his music and it's relatable. THAT'S Country music my friends.
😊😊😅😅😊
9 yr old kid when I first heard this… got me onto country today. 22 now. It tears still. Thank you Brad for getting me into this genre of music!! It’s beautiful.
Hello. Can you tell Brad Paisley is a white singer by the characteristics of his vocal timbre?
I graduated in May 2016... This song resonated with me that whole month. It's so crazy that it's already been three months but it's even crazier how much my perspective on things have changed from listening to this song before I graduated to now, three years later. Life is flying by.
Bruh same it’s crazy that time flies so quickly.
From listening to this song, it feels like a dagger struck the strongest part of my heart, and shattered it. I graduated in 2018, and I’m already a junior in college. why does time have to go by so quickly? So many things have changed, and I’m almost crying typing this, I honestly wish I could have those high school days back. Life is flying by faster than a rocket in the sky.
didn't expect to see you here lol
@@matthewavery2934 same dude...
@@QBall4283 wish time would slow down and let me enjoy life.
I'm 30 years old and I could write a novel on the things I would have done differently at that age....but the main thing that I'd want at least one kid to hear from me (because in reality it isn't advice to the past me) is NEVER let ANYONE make you change you....don't try to be who you're not....don't worry about fitting in with the "cool kids", BE YOU and LOVE YOU and you will develop friendships that are authentic and genuine....THOSE will be your shoulders to lean on....the arms you can run to....the encouraging conversations when all feels lost....and the LOVE that will pull you out of your darkest pits....and don't be afraid of being who you are because YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL....YOU ARE DESERVING OF TRUE FRIENDSHIP....AND YOU ARE WORTHY OF LOVE....I truly wish that I'd have had someone to say those things to me because I allowed myself to lose ME by trying to be who everyone else wanted me to be and I spent so long not knowing who I was, therefore not blossoming into who I COULD HAVE had I made wiser decisions....That's why I HOPE that this resonates with SOMEONE because at least then I can be content in knowing that THAT one of my many, many, MANY (lol) mistakes wasn't for nothing....it was so I could be the one to say these words to someone that needed to hear them....
Brad paisley is so under rated .I cant understand why he isnt in the hall of fame fame .he is the best singer hands down
Yes I agree , you and I and millions of others.❤
Songs like this are the reason I love country so much. So glad I saw him live two weeks ago at Country2Country.
Hello, how are you today? It’s nice to me see you here.
this is my last year of high school, and it's honestly a little scary, I've had people tell me It's not all that bad. this very song fills me with confidence that my best years are still ahead of me and how my life will get better with the years to come
Very insightful Trevor. And yes - the best years are ahead....expecially if you go to college !! Just don't let yorself live in the past like many people do.
that's a lie bro. shits always gonna be bad. real bad. when you are on top of that moutian...BOOM! you slip and fall.
Always go that different route that no one takes and take peoples words as life lessons and advice and use that to better yourself!
"And i'll end by saying have no fear, these are nowhere near the best years of your life"
As a 2014 college grad, I can assure you Brad hit it right on the dollar bill with this line. College will blow any good day high school gives you right out of the water.
+Jebus Matoi high school didnt give me any happy days
I can quite well imagine college would be worse
life ends at 22
It isn't, bro. College is amazing and is literally a second chance at who you want to be.
+Gar Tahk I hated school but loved most afterwards! There are good times, alright times, seriously bad times and the other times. Life has this annoying habit of being a bitch and what is good for some isn't always good for others. I hope you find something to love, even after 22 :)
+Jebus Matoi THE COLLEGE IS WHAT IS TURNING OUT STUPID PEOPLE, MASS DUMBING DOWN , WHY GO TO COLLEGE GO TO THE LIQUOR STORE BUY BEER KILL YOUR LIVER , THATS ALL THEY LIVE FOR IN A COLLEGE IS PARTYING NOT EDUCATION,,,,GO TO COLLEGE LEARN HOW TO BURN A FLAG BE A DRUNK TAKE STUDENT LOANS RUN THE DEFICIT UP MORE , THEN COMPLAIN YOUR OVERQUALIFIED FOR A JOB ,,,OVER RATED OVER PRICED BULLSHIT THIS COUNTRY DONE FINE UNTIL COLLEGES NOW LOOK AT IT
+elden strawder I dont know what you have against colleges but to be honest that is the most ignorant thing I have ever seen on a youtube comment and trust me ive seen alot. College is not about partying, yes some may over due partying as a freshman or maybe a sophmore but the people who can even become "over qualified" for a job will have to try atleast a little bit in college. I am not you or even know you so i cant say for sure if you were joking or just have so sad of a life that you need to complain that your boss is 20 years younger than you. Also college is older than this country dumbass.
I first heard this song when I was 17 and I didn't realize the significance of it until now, granted I'm only 22 now but I have a strange draw to this song and the message it portrays, it's crazy
same here if I could write a letter to me back then I probably wouldn't have read it because that shit would be a book
Same Luther
at 17? this song still makes a ton of sense at 26!
Try 56... ;)
Tom Beyer I'm 23 love this song
Steven Brazie I'm 18
I'm 60+ and it makes more sense than ever.
Try 19 hating your life 😔
thank that teacher who worked so hard to get you motivated to pass and graduate...and always hug "aunt Rita" you never know when those you love will leave you!
This song has actually helped me to not become one of those people who are focused on being popular or dating or anything like that. It helped me realize a long(ish) time ago that there is more to life than just high school and that I can't sweat the not being liked thing or the being cursed at or hated thing.
Whenever I need a reminder of that, this song just always appears. Like this morning when I was feeling a bit down and worried, or just a bit ago when someone I thought was a friend did a big so friendly thing. This song just popped into my head and listening to it has reminded me that I'll be okay.
Thank you Brad Paisley. Thank you.
Same way i feel :p
I’m 17 currently and I can honestly say I’m at the biggest possible “rock bottom” point in my life that any given 17 year old could be at. My birthday was a few days ago and my cousin suggested this song to me. I’m not an emotional type, but when I listened to it in my room later I couldn’t help but start bawling. I hope when I’m Brad Paisley’s age I can turn on this song and look back at my teen years and see how far I’ve come.
It’s a tough time to
Be 17 but don’t think
To
Hard. Everything will work out for a reason. Don’t be pressured to
Be 18 yet pal it will come and that last year of 17 will fly so enjoy
Time goes by EXTREMELY FAST PLAYER, I'm 28 Now and the OLDER YOU GET, THE FASTER IT GOES.
Words of Advice: ALWAYS BE WISE, Ignore ALL NEGATIVITY And Drama, Push away the bad groups of people if any, And FOCUS ON YOUR DREAMS MAN..... I Wish I could go back in time and fix my mistakes but nobody can. Good Day to you buddy.
I’ve been a Brad Paisley fan since 2004 when I first started listening to country. “Mud on the tires” was the album
Man if i knew then what i know now...
I wouldnt change a damn thing
Tyler Mcphail haha Ikr
This song describes me down to a T. I am 17 and just recently had a 7 month relationship crash and burn. And yeah, it does feel like there’s still a knife in my back. And even as I write this, I am studying algebra to get a good grade on my test tomorrow. All of Brad’s lyrics resonate with me. But don’t think I am looking for pity from anyone. Trust in the Lord and He will bless you.
“In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight. Be not wise in thy own eyes: fear the Lord and depart from evil.” Proverbs 3:6-7
As a freshman I have yet to experience the events in this song, but it will keep me going through those times
Best advice is make good choices in life. Here I am close to 30, and wish I could write a letter to my 15-18 year old self.
aligncars10000 I am 50. You have enough to write a letter every 10 years.
Your about 22 or 23 now how is life?
This came out when I was 17, senior year. All my friends in arizona, divorce, moved to Tennessee when I was 20. Now 27 loving back in my home state of Michigan. Beautiful 9 month old with the love of my life.
Wow. Pulled on a few heart strings there Brad. Man... Lots changed .
man oh man :')
I was a teenager when this came out. This was my favorite song. Brings back so many memories. I just turned 30 in July. And life does pass you by.
Why does this song make me bawl every single time?
Me too
Thank you for following my page , Support you showered on me, I hope you never stop listening to my music…I’ll love to honor you by giving you my personal information for a private conversation if that’s ok by you..
These lyrics were as true then as they are today. That's what makes a great song from a great artist. I my met my wife in High School at age 17 and we are still so much in love as we go through the chapters of our life. I graduated in 1981. I love you honey.
Amazing Song both words and music....HE wrote this himself.....best songs are when he writes it all.....We need more Singer Songwriters....
I think Brad is a lyrical genius, not even mentioning his monster guitar skills (oops, i just did) And he seems like a really good guy. I'd love to hang out with him once.
Thanks. Brad for NOT forgetting where you came from, and whom helped make you ! That's what makes you the 💪 and coolest down to earth country star. Congrats...Deb M.
I was 17 going on to college. My girlfriend and I broke up. I had never loved someone as much as her. Its been a while since we broke up and I still think about her ever damn day. But this song just puts a smile in my face because it gives me hope that everything will turn out just fine. I know it will!!!! Beautiful message and beautiful song!!
Its crazy watching this video and knowing every single place that it was shot at, especially the riverfront, where i spent the majority of summer 2013. Wild and Wonderful West Virginia.
I was just writing a letter to me of my childhood, don't do it at Christmas, makes me cry. but your song makes you sing.
Whoever reading this, God knows what you are facing through, he heard your cry, He is going to deliver you. Just trust in him. Amen. 💞
Amen!
Amen
I can’t stop listening to this song. It is my all time favorite country song. It has so much meaning. They really don’t make em like they used to.
just ended my senior year and going off to the military. this song explains my high school career perfectly. still remember my first day of freshman year. wish i could do it all over again already.
He puts a lot of heart into his songs
Yes he does
I love this song so much...I think this song can apply to anyone because we all look back on our lives later and wish we had done things differently at different points in life.
Hello, how are you today? It’s nice to me see you here.
This song... I was five years old when this song came out, my dad and I singing along to the lyrics with not a care in the world. Now, here I am at 23, and slowly realizing this song is right, whether it be through confirmation bias or if Brad is just that amazing of a storyteller. Broke up with my girlfriend after 7 months when I was 16/17, eventually got back together with her and now she makes me the happiest man on earth. I get in arguments with my dad even today and still try to remember "Just assume you're wrong, and Dad is right", and that plays out so true so many times. Remembering how much "pressure" I thought was on me in high school only to realize there's a bigger world out there. This is just one of the many Brad Paisley songs that bring tears to my eyes, because they're so true and he just has such a great way of telling a story/promoting a message/lesson.
My house is in the background at the stop sign at Tomlinson and 8th..brads mom was my 4th grade teacher! My dude let’s go John Marshall monarchs!
Wow that's great
lucky sod lol
That's awesome!
G-Town baby
JM1996
I love this song I balled my eyes out first time I heard this song because Ive been through so much hell in my life ive been suicidal just wanted give up... for some reason this song gives me something to hold on to makes me see differently I'll have a bright future just have to push through that bad times and I'll come out even stronger then I started!!
You're not alone bud, stay strong.
Keep listening man . Life is precious
I'm 16 now and I feel like I'm in my 20s listening to it to make the best out of my high school years, I was always quiet and didn't follow the crowd or get involved much, I just wanted to finish high school and leave, I have not much time left but I've dealt with so much past 2 years and I know better years are only to come. Country music speaks to me on a whole new deeper level.
Brad Paisley is the most underrated artist of our generation.
I remember seeing him at the Tennessee Valley Fair when he first started, I said "this feller will do well."
True
To others he is but the one's who listen do from the ❤. ✌ OUT friend
He's a great country artist fully agree he's totally under rated
Not by this Country Fan not ever Remember the Paisley
Oh the things I would write if I could do this. I miss my mom :( and I thank GOD I did not marry my first Girlfriend.
Funny seeing you here! Love this song and your channel:)
me too man, so glad I didn't marry her as I would've missed out on my true bride and kids. Sometimes unanswered prayers, eh?
I think we are all glad we didn't marry our first girlfriends
A person can change a lot since elementary school
Never marry your first girlfriend. Garth brooks was right.
Brad Paisley.... God bless you for existing. You have no idea how you have helped me through my life. Thank you soooo much
It's funny how true this song rings now that I look back at High School and all the stupid things I did. I was actually 17 when this song came out and now I'm only 24 but it still holds true. There are a lot of things I wish I could tell myself back then, even before that, and how things will be different.
When this song first came out, I was 15 years old. At the time, I didn't really get it. Listening to it today at 24 (which, frankly, is still pretty young), I'm actually starting to truly understand this song...I love it.
It's pretty remarkable how many people my music touches...I think I am very lucky in that way. I think I have you to be the most thankful for 🎹🌹🎹🌹
I Was 3 When It Came Out Im 15 Now
@@bradpaisley4665 yes true have some of your music videos on my u tube videos big tv screen thanks Brad Paisley
I used to listen to this song when i was 22. I was digging in my old songs list and i came i cross it this week. I'm still listening to it since then. Such an amazing song and lyrics, and country style!
I know every single lyric and song from Brad paisley and honestly this is my favorite song ever being honest.
Avoid drugs at all cost
Amen to that
“Ps go hug aunt Rita... every chance you can” that line hits my heart like a train... 😭😭❤️
its been a terrible year so far and its my senior year and ill be graduating in less than two months. My prom is in two weeks and it feels too fast. This song has made me realize i should slow down and enjoy these times.
I started out not being much of a country music kinda guy but it's songs like this that make me wanna listen to more & more. A song with a good meaning, & message.
So inspirational. Its much comfortable to live in the past. Country Music is the best!!!
"...pain like that is fast and it's rare..." SO TRUE.
I love this song. gives a young person hope for a better future than he may see. Brad's songs are full of hope, and a positive outlook on life. I remember high school days very well. I agree those are not the best years. Things will get better. Listen to those who have been there and know...
+Patty Powell ,
This song is touching, it also has so many different ways of value, and meaning. If this can touch you as much as it does. Go on and live life, there"s so much more in life to be taught, and learned that this will only be a introduction to real life........
Thank you for following my page , Support you showered on me, I hope you never stop listening to my music…I’ll love to honor you by giving you my personal information for a private conversation if that’s ok by you.. ☺️💋😍
The part that gets me is the "go hug aunt rita every chance you get". If I could write a letter to me, I'd say go hug your mom as much as you can....she was gone in an instant just 6 short years after I was 17. Miss her like crazy ❤
Thank you for following my page , Support you showered on me, I hope you never stop listening to my music…I’ll love to honor you by giving you my personal information for a private conversation if that’s ok by you.. 🙏💗
@A LO. I’m also a very big fan of his what’s your favorite song is hus
Beautiful song lyrics beautiful song & video thanks love it thanks Brad Paisley thanks
i love being able to just sit back and enjoy music so calming and smooth
Thank you for following my page , Support you showered on me, I hope you never stop listening to my music…I’ll love to honor you by giving you my personal information for a private conversation if that’s ok by you.. 💕😊
Only 22 at the moment. Parts of this song I wish I wish I coulda told myself at 15-18. The other parts I'm kinda going through right now and this song keeps me going and helps me through the hard times. Will always love this song
"These are no where near the best days of your life."
Maybe not, but certainly some of the best memories!
Hands down one of the greatest country songs ever written and performed
I use to listen to this all the time when I was 17 in my foster home. At 22 I really now understand, life goes by so quick . I never saw the bigger picture to life and now I do . how 5 years can change , one of my aunts I got reconnected to died this year and I wish I could've hugged him more . He told me long ago and the song to do it , but I took it for granted. If your 17 take it from me , he is so right in this song. Good luck beautiful life journey called life.
If I could write a letter to my 17 year old self, I would tell myself to #1- Leave the girls alone and #2- Focus on being successful. If you're successful, the women will be there.
Plus buy MSFT and AAPL, lol!
Every time i hear this song I cry. These words are soo touching to the heart.... I love this song
@Brad Paisleyis this REALLY you????? Dude I love your your music especially waiting on a woman I play that every time I back into a dock. I've been listening to you for a little while I just started trucking and I've grown to love country music now lol,lol,lol
Hello letha. How're you doing, hope you're good.
@Brad Paisley thanks Brad Paisley beautiful song thanks
Brad sells out wherever he goes, but if you're fortunate enough to see him live, savour every moment. I live in Scotland and I'm going to see him for the 3rd time in March. Happy 2017 folks. All the best :)
Definitely my favorite Brad Paisley song🥂
I mean they just don’t write em like this anymore
They definitely do, this is like a lot of country music
I agree but Brad paisley still writes his lyrics with hearts other than him and Toby Keith I don't listen to new country

I used to listen to this song in high school, willing myself to stay alive. I'm 25 now, and I still come back to this song when I struggle (which is a lot less now), but it keeps me going.
Yes Brad Paisley is underrated. But not to the one's who listen to him.
✌ OUT friends
I'm a Kat too!
I don't have children or a wife im only twenty three but if I could write a letter to my younger self 5-17 id tell myself to slow down and dont be in such a hurry to grow up.
Thanks Brad Paisley beautiful song lyrics beautiful song & video thanks Brad Paisley love it
Im a hip hop fan but dam i love this song
I wish all young teenagers 15 & up would listen to this song over & over. The song is so real. At 17 you can't see past Friday night & high school IS NO WHERE THE BEST YEARS OF YOUR LIFE!!
All thanks and love to my Fans..keep supporting and shedding your love! you all are the only source to my motivation to work!
Are you one of my great fans out there?
Life would've much easier if I heard this son when I was 17
I'm a black girl and I love country. War Eagle!
No, your a person that enjoys a kind of music. It's people like you that set steriotypes.
+Chandler Baxter well said buddy
bam9042 ROLL TIDE!
War Eagle!
That lyric about talking to your aunt every chance you get is really true if you have older family members talk to them as much as you can because oneday you wont be able to
The fact that I live in the same town as Brad Paisley and go to the same high school(:

"All I can say is pain like that is fast and its rare."
Well, I hope it is for you. Seems to me a recurring instance in my life. You don't want to know what I would tell myself t 17."
do u have a snap
Thanks for all your love and all you to do concerning my music and I hope you never stop listening to my music
I was 14 when this song came out, its been almost 12 years since 17. A couple things I'd tell myself:
1. You're not too cool to enjoy your senior year, go to prom and participate in spirit week.
2. There will come a time where you have to choose between what is best and what is easy. As easy as getting high seems to be, its so much harder in the long run so develop positive coping skills.
3. I know moms been dead for over ten years, I know you think you're tough and can handle death as it comes. But you don't have as much time with your dad and grandpa as you might think so spend time with them and tell them how much you love them or you will regret leaving things unsaid.
4. Don't make your relationships what defines you as an individual. Know your worth, never settle and whenever someone shows you who they really are, believe them.
5. Your attitude is your problem. Feed into the negativity and you will be miserable. Feed into positivity and it won't be so bad.
6. Amber Heard is a POS.
Lol @ Number 6.
I am still listening to this song in the last day of 2017
I listened to this song in my car driving around on prom night after my girl and I got in a huge fight right before.. she ended up going alone and ill never be able to change that, but i picked her up that night and we had some of the best years together after that.. she gone now, and ill never have her back but i've got the memories and she'll always have a place in my heart .. things always get better but you'll never forget your first love. never.
This makes me proud to be attending John Marshall high school. The same one brad paisley graduated from.
This song was played at my graduation
I wish they would play this at my graduation but sadly where I'm from literally 95% percent of the students listen to pop or the so called "country" they play today on the radio. So sadly most people in my school don't even know this song or Brad Paisley
Lucky, my song was I think from friends with people I just knew from that year, moved the last year of hs
I'm sure they are gonna play nothing but lil pump and stupid music like that at mine. How unfortunate.
It sucks because there’s no way this is gonna play at mine. It’s just gonna be rap and hip hop music
Thank you for following my page , Support you showered on me, I hope you never stop listening to my music…I’ll love to honor you by giving you my personal information for a private conversation if that’s ok by you..
That's my school! Monarch pride!
Katelynn Harris what school is it then, where is it.
August Biernbaum it says John Marshall on the back wall and we played them in football and I don’t remember them being the monarchs
August Biernbaum but yet again they’re all wearing monarch gear
August Biernbaum oh nvm this is John Marshall West Virginia. I played John Marshall OKC
Yes Brad Paisley is from Glendale wv. His dad is a transportation bus driver and I think his mom works at the school.
Im a senior. About to graduate! At the beginning of the year my teacher showed us this song and i bet some of us cried!!! My teacher again showed us this song at the beginning of the second semester!!!! That's insane how fast it went by! He is showing us this again before we leave. I might cry.
I love Brad's music
Brad is such a talent.
I wish I'd listened to this song more often when I was 17, maybe it would have changed some of the outlooks I had on life then. I can see how far I've come but how far i still have to go.
Beautiful song by a beautiful voice.
Wow I really appreciate your comment and your love for me and my music and I hope you never stop listening to my music

Are you one of my great fans out there?
Beautiful song lyrics beautiful song & video thanks Brad Paisley love it
Talk to Grandpa Roger instead of going to a friend's, hug your dog Alma, the tattoo will heal fine, wish you save more
Spend more time with Pappy. He's got a lot less time left than he deserves.
When Dwayne offers you a cigar at your graduation party, turn it down.
Nicky isn't right for you. Accept it and move on.
Stop driving like you're Vin Diesel and every trip to work is a street race.
When you’re in high school you really don’t know how good you have it until the real world hits you. Listening to this song at nearly 24 and looking back at all the fun times I had back then. The stories I could tell and the stories I shouldn’t tell lol. And you know what, yea I screwed up a few times but I wouldn’t change a thing
