If I could write a letter to meAnd send it back in time to myself at 17First I'd prove it's me by saying"Look under your bedThere's a Skoal can and a PlayboyNo one else would know you hid"And then I'd say I know it's toughWhen you break up after seven monthsAnd, yeah, I know you really liked herAnd it just don't seem fairBut all I can say is pain like that is fast and it's rareAnd, oh, you got so much going for you, going rightBut I know at 17 it's hard to see past Friday nightShe wasn't right for you and still you feel like there's a knifeSticking out of your back and you're wondering if you'll survive itYou'll make it through this and you'll seeYou're still around to write this letter to meAt the stop sign at Tomlinson and 8thI always stop completely, don't just tap your brakesAnd when you get a date with BridgetMake sure the tank is fullOn second thought, forget itThat one turns out kinda coolEach and every time you have a fightJust assume you're wrong and dad is rightAnd you should really thank Ms. BrinkmanShe spends so much extra timeIt's like she sees a diamond underneathAnd she's polishing you 'til you shineAnd oh, you got so much going for ya, going rightBut I know at 17 it's hard to see past Friday nightTonight's the bonfire rally but you're staying home insteadBecause if you fail algebra, mom and dad'll kill you deadBut trust me, you'll squeak by and get a CAnd you're still around to write this letter to meYou've got so much up aheadYou'll make new friendsAnd you should see your kids and wifeAnd I'll end by saying have no fearThese are nowhere near the best years of your lifeI guess I'll see you in the mirror when you're a grown manP.S. go hug Aunt Rita every chance you canAnd oh, you got so much going for you going rightBut I know at 17 it's hard to see past Friday nightI wish you'd study Spanish, I wish you'd take a typing classI wish you wouldn't worry and let it beHey, I'd say have a little faith and you'll seeIf I could write a letter to meTo me
