Letter to Me (给我的信) - Hit Co. Masters[00:00:00]
If I could write a letter to me[00:00:12]
And send it back in time to myself at 17[00:00:18]
First, I'd prove it's me[00:00:23]
By saying look under your bed[00:00:25]
There's a Skoal can and a "Playboy"[00:00:30]
No one else would know you hid[00:00:32]
And then I'd say I know it's tough[00:00:36]
When you break up after seven months[00:00:41]
And yeah, I know you really liked her[00:00:48]
And it just don't seem fair[00:00:51]
But all I can say is pain like[00:00:54]
That is fast and it's rare[00:00:57]
And oh, you got so much going for you,[00:01:00]
Going right[00:01:05]
But I know at 17[00:01:06]
It's hard to see past Friday night[00:01:09]
She wasn't right for you[00:01:13]
And still you feel like there's a knife[00:01:15]
Sticking out of your back[00:01:18]
And you're wondering if you'll survive[00:01:21]
But you'll make it[00:01:25]
Through this and you'll see[00:01:26]
You're still around[00:01:30]
To write this letter to me[00:01:31]
At the stop sign at Tomlinson and 8th[00:01:39]
Always stop completely,[00:01:46]
Don't just tap your brakes[00:01:48]
And when you get a date with Bridget[00:01:52]
Make sure the tank is full[00:01:54]
On second thought, forget it,[00:01:57]
That one turns out kind a cool[00:02:01]
Each and every time you have a fight[00:02:04]
Just assume you're wrong and Dad is right[00:02:10]
And you should really thank Ms. Brinkley,[00:02:16]
She spends so much extra time[00:02:19]
It's like she sees the diamond underneath[00:02:22]
And she's polishing you 'till you shine[00:02:25]
And oh, you got so much going for you,[00:02:29]
Going right[00:02:33]
But I know at 17[00:02:34]
It's hard to see past Friday night[00:02:37]
Tonight's the bonfire rally[00:02:41]
But you're staying home instead[00:02:43]
Because if you fail algebra,[00:02:46]
Mom and Dad'll kill you dead[00:02:49]
But trust me you'll squeak by and get a C[00:02:53]
And you're still around[00:02:58]
To write this letter to me[00:02:59]
You got so much up ahead,[00:03:04]
You'll make new friends[00:03:08]
You should see your kids and wife[00:03:10]
And I'd end by saying have no fear[00:03:15]
These are nowhere near[00:03:19]
The best years of your life[00:03:22]
I guess I'll see you in the mirror[00:03:28]
When you're a grown man[00:03:32]
P.S., go hug Aunt Rita[00:03:35]
Every chance you can[00:03:37]
And oh, you got so much going for you,[00:03:43]
Going right[00:03:47]
But I know at 17 it's hard[00:03:48]
To see past Friday night[00:03:52]
I wish you'd study Spanish,[00:03:55]
I wish you'd take a typing class[00:03:57]
I wish you wouldn't worry, let it be[00:04:00]
I'd say have a little faith[00:04:06]
And you'll see[00:04:09]
If I could write a letter to me[00:04:14]
