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
Tominson 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 spent so much extra time
It's like she sees the
diamond underneath
And she's polishing 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 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
PS 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
