Brad Paisley – Letter To Me Lyrics  Share

From Brad Paisley's album: 5th Gear

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 it^,s 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

At the stop sign at Tomlinson and Eighth
Always stop completely don^,t just tap your breaks
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 really should thank Mrs. Brinkman
She spent so much extra time
It^,s like she sees the diamond underneath
And she^,s just polishin^, you ^,til you shine

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 by 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

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
