This song gives me a feeling in the pit of my stomach, that feeling when you realize you can never go back.

this is seriously one of the best songs ever. it's so nostalgiac and meaningful, i'm pretty sure almost everyone can relate. this song seriously brings me to the brink of tears when he sings the last two lines: "Good times come and good times go, I only wish the good times would last a little longer. I think about the good times we had And why they had to end. So I sit at the edge of my bed I strum my guitar and I sing an outlaw love song. Wonerin' 'bout what you're doin' now And when you're comin' back" awesome song

This song is basically about how he didn't give a shit about anything when he was young and he regrets wasting those years of his life. I'm a freshman in high school and I think these are the two stanzas that mean the most to me: "And the girl in the front of the room, So close yet so far y'know she never seemed to ntice That this silly schoolboy crush Wasn't just pretend." "So I sit at the edge of my bed I strum my guitar and I sing an outlaw love song. Wonerin' 'bout what you're doin' now And when you're comin' back."
