I Am a Sentimental Fool

The radio was playing, Brad Paisley's 'Last Time for Everything' and it must have caught me in a moment.

I lost 2 very special grandparents in recent years and it happened around this time of the year. Just have found myself thinking of them a lot and reflecting. This song also reminds me of the last good times with a past love. Sigh.. just in a sentimental mood I suppose.

"Last Time For Everything"

Using a fake ID at a college bar
Getting caught with a girl in the backseat of a car
Running out on the field for the senior game wearing number 17
There's a last time for everything

Like a George Strait cassette in a Pontiac
I tell 'em Super Cuts, let's leave it long in the back
Wearing the tux at a high school gym
And she's wearing your class ring
There's a last time for everything

Last call, last chance
Last song, last dance
Sometimes you just don't know when that's gonna be
Hold me baby, give me a kiss
Like tonight is all there is
Cause there's a last time for everything

Throwing the ball with the first dog you ever had
Spending all day on the lake with your grandad
Watching Glenn Frey sing "Already Gone" at the Forum in LA
There's a last time for everything

Last call, last chance
Last song, last dance
Sometimes you just don't know when that's gonna be
Hold me baby, give me a kiss
Like tonight is all there is
Cause there's a last time for everything

Kissing goodbye on her porch and driving away
Introducing her as your fiancee
Getting woke up at 5 am to see if Santa came
There's a last time for everything

Biscuits and gravy at momma's house
(Last time for everything)
Spring break on a fold out couch
(Last time for everything)
Little Jimmy on the Opry stage
(Last time for everything)
Hearing Prince sing "Purple Rain"
(Last time for everything)
(Last time for everything)

It's a great song and, I guess, like you it stopped me in my tracks and got me thinking of my past.....

This song always gets me too. Brad's 'One Of Those Lives'...

Never realized the gravity of that song til I read the lyrics. Last Halloween was the last chance for my youngest to go trick or treating. Ball practice tonight... :)
