Letter To Me lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics Letter To Me 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 [1st Chorus] 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 At the stop sign at Tomlinson and Eighth Always stop completely don t just tap your brakes And when you get a date with Bridgett make sure the tank is full On second thought forget it that one turns out kinda cool Each and every time you have a fight Just assume you re wrong and dad is right And you should really thank Mrs. Brinkman She spend so much extra time It s like she sees the diamond underneath And she s polishing you til you shine [2nd Chorus] And oh you got so much going for you going right But I know at 17 it s hard to see past Friday night Tonight s the bonfire rally But you re staying home instead because if you fail Algebra Mom and dad will kill you dead Trust me you ll squeak by and get a C And you re still around to write this letter to me You ve got so much up ahead You ll make new friends You should see your kids and wife And I d end up saying have no fear These are nowhere near the best years of your life I guess I ll see you in the mirror When you re a grown man P.S. "go hug Aunt Rita every chance you can" [3rd Chorus] And oh you got so much going for you going right But I know at 17 it s hard to see past Friday night I wish you d study Spanish I wish you d take a typing class I wish you wouldn t worry, let it be I d say have a little faith and you ll see If I could write a letter to me To me song lyrics
