Letter to Me    by Brad Paisley

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 rare1

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 completely2

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 kind of cool

Each and every time you have a fight

Just assume3 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 underneath4

And she's polishing5 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 rally6


But you're staying home instead

Because if you fail Algebra7

Mom and dad will kill you dead

Trust me you'll squeak8 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

中文歌词

如果我能够给自己写信

我会寄给十七岁时的自己

首先我会证明那是我

我会说看看你的床下

那里有一个啤酒罐和一本《花花公子》

没人知道你把它们藏在哪了

然后我要说那令你很难受

当你交往了七个月的女孩儿和你分手

是啊,我知道你好喜欢她

那似乎不很公平

但我只能说那是短暂的痛苦而且极少发生

你有着美好的未来

但我知道在十七岁

很少有谁去想周五以后的事儿

她不适合你

你却依然


心如刀绞

不知能否活下去

但最终你能熬过这一切并且看到

你仍然好好的并写这封信给我

在Tomlinson与第八街的交口处

看到停车信号时一定要将车停住

不要仅仅只是点一脚刹车

但你和Bridgett约会

要确信油箱是加满的

再仔细想想别太在意了

那女孩儿并不很酷

每一次的争执

就只当是你错了而爸爸是对的

你真要好好感谢Brinkman老师

她为你花费了那么多额外的时间

好像她看到了地下的钻石

她不停的打磨直到你闪闪发光

你有着美好的未来

但我知道十七岁时

很少有谁想周五晚上以后的事儿

今晚有个篝火晚会

但你会留在家里

因为一旦代数考不好

爸妈不会饶过你

相信我你会勉强得个C

但你仍然好好的写这封信给我

你前途似锦


你将结实许多新朋友

你该看看你的妻儿

最后我要说别担心

这远不是你生命中最好的时候

我想当你变成一个成熟男人的时候

我们会在镜中再相见

还有:别忘了一有机会就给Rita阿姨一个拥抱

你有着美好的未来

但我知道十七岁时

很少有谁去想周五晚上以后的事儿

希望你学习西班牙文

去参加一个打字培训班

希望你别太忧虑,万事顺其自然

自信点,你会明白的

如果我能写封信给自己

给我自己

我听之我见
