kenny chesney lyrics… who you’d be today
while sitting around working today i was listening to the new kenny chesney cd… the road and the radio his new song who you’d be today really hit me. yes, the video is incredibly sad, and the song is about those who have passed on…
here’s the kenny chesney lyrics
Sunny days seem to hurt the most
I Wear the pain like a heavy coat
I feel you everywhere I go
See your smile, I see your face
I hear you laughing in the rain
Still can’t believe your gone(Chorus:)
It ain’t fair you died to young
Like a story that had just begun
But death tore the pages all away
God knows how I miss you
All the hell that I’ve been through
Just knowing, no one could take your place
Sometimes I wonder, who you’d be todayWould you see the world
Would you chase your dreams
Settle down with a family
I wonder what would you name your babies
Someday’s the sky’s so blue
I feel like I can talk to you
And I know it might sound crazy(Chorus)
Today[6x]
Sunny days seem to hurt the most
I wear the pain like a heavy coat
The only thing that gives me hope
Is I know, I’ll see you again somedaySomeday, someday
what hit me though is this song also relates to those of us who have had people pass through our lives that are still in this world. a death of a relationship with a guy/girl… a death of a friendship…
i’ve never had to go through the loss of someone close to me thank God, but i have had many people pass through my life that this song really relates to.
the death of a 17 year friendship being one of them. my best friend is still here, but our relationship isn’t, and hasn’t been for a long time. i sometimes think that’s even more painful than actually loosing them to death. knowing you can still touch them, but you can’t.
kenny has once again created a song so close to my life, that sometimes i think he is writing them as i am living them…

I heard this song a few times on the radio, but i never really paid much attention to it. I just thought, “Meh, thats a pretty good song”. That was until one of my friends died in an auto accident. She was 18, and this song was played at her funeral…it fit the whole tragedy SO perfect! Every time I hear this song, I cry, and i think about her and how much I miss her! Its a very good song..and anyone can relate to it someday or another!

MY 2O YEAR OLD SON WAS KILLED IN A WRECK SEPT. 18TH 2005. THE FIRST TIME THAT I HEARD THIS SONG, I WAS GOING TO MAKE MY DAILY VISIT TO HIS GRAVE. SOMEONE HAD TOLD ME ABOUT THIS SONG AND I WAS WANTING TO HEAR IT. I GOT IN MY SUV AND PUNCH THE RADIO FOR THE ANTENNA TO GO UP AND THERE WAS A PAUSE AND THEN THIS SONG CAME ON. I CRIED ALL THE WAY TO THE CEMETARY . I HAD A PEACEFUL FEELING COME OVER ME THAT I KNEW THAT I WOULD SEE HIM AGAIN SOMEDAY. I AM HAVING THIS SONG ETCHED ON HIS HEADSTONE. ITS THE HARDEST THING TO LOSE SOMEONE , MOSTLY YOUR CHILD.

The first time I heard this song all I could think about is how fitting it was to the situation of my pastor, he and his wife lost their youngest son at the age of 18. His reason for death listed in his certificate is one of only a handfull that reads “unknown”. After extensive research and testing the medical professionals were never able to conclude why he died. so for all of us whom knew and loved him we just know that God needed him more than we did here, but thanks to Jesus we will see him again SOMEDAY, thank you for this song, it really puts “peace” to someone who has lost a special someone.

I first heard this song just after my husband died on my way to the cemetary. He was 32 years old and taken from me much too young. It has become one of my ” crying” songs, something I listen to when I need a good sob. Today the lyrics ” sunny days seem to hurt the most” keep running through my head as it is beautiful and sunny and I can’t enjoy it. I keep thinking about what we would have been doing today in the beautiful weather. I am just thankful that I will see him again someday.

I first heard this song on the TV and it killed me inside. I wanted to listen to it again but couldn’t bring myself to. I just finally (after 7 months) listened to it again. I cried…I remember my 17 year old daughter that was murdered in 2002. I miss her so much and often think about who she’d be today. She would have just turned 21. This song says so much. Kenny did a great job!!

this song rlly touches home with me… im only 16 in in my freshman year of high school i had two close friends pass away who were each only 18 yrs old and about to graduate… then this year 2 more very close friends passed away… i never thought a song could mean so much to me

This song has really hit home for me. My 25th class reunion is this month and we are also having a memorial for 2 of our class mates that has died. One was killed in a bad car accident 10 months after we graduated, he was one that would go far in life with no barriors and you can only wonder where he would be today. Our most recent class mate was killed in an explosion, he work for an electric company and some transformers blew up and killed 3 men and seriously enjuried one. He was one of them that died, very young but growing up you always wonder what you will be some day or your friends and family. I would have never thought that I would be a single mom and a single parent. My sons father died at the age of 45. I cry everytime I hear this song, it is beautiful. Thank You Kenny

This song is great! I liked it when I first heard it on the radio, but now it hits home a little more. My cousin’s baby had heart problems from the day he was born. On March 27, 2006 we went to U of M in Ann Arbor, MI for his second of three heart surgeries. Unfortunately, he went to get his wings just after midnight on March 28, three days before he would’ve turned 7 months. He is now our little angel! We miss you Jaxon and we’ll see you again someday.

This is a really great song everytime I hear it brings tears to my eyes. I lost my dad On Febuary 25, 2006 he passed away from cancer that he had been trying to fight for 3 years. He was a really great guy and I miss him very much. It’s a very hard thing to deal with. To many people die young, and for everyone out there sorry for your loss.

One of my favorite Kenny Chesney songs. I reminds me of all the friends and family members I lost who have passed on to the otherside and most recently my good friend John Watson who died at 29 in west palm beach Fl on May 20, 2006. Thanks Kenny for the beautiful although sad song

i am the type of girl that does’nt really listen to country but when my fiancee died on Febuary 2nd 2006 at the age of 24 leaving three kids and myself behind on this earth. You never expect this to happen to you at such a young age. I started to listen to it because a lot of the lyrics have help me to go on in life and when i heard this song it made me brake down in tears more than any song ever has because I have been in doubt about if I will ever see him again and listening to these lyrics let me know that I will see him again.Its true because the sunny days do hurt the most when you want them to be there with you and you know that they can’t be with you right now you just have to hope and pray for the day that you will see them again. Thank you Kenny this song has helped me to get through this rough time in my life.

All I can say is thank you. Everything that I have felt, he described in this song. My daughter died 3 years ago… what a beautiful tribute song!
June 25th, 2006 at 8:37 pm
when i first heard this song i felt bad for my friends that i lost over the past year i even miss my family when i heard this song i cried until i fell asleep and i dream about it too…
June 25th, 2006 at 8:38 pm
when i hear this song today i will never forgett all the bad times i went through and damage that happened to me and my family
June 25th, 2006 at 8:54 pm
i’m just an ordianry girl who’s husband died June 20, 2006 at the age of 34
leaving me and his’s four kids behind. I never expected this to happen to me at this age and i’m only 33 that was really heart breaking. When i first heard this song i really cried my heart out and that one simple thing that really does hurt the most is sunny days. When ever a sunny day appears i cry becaus emy husband is not here to take care of me and his kids. The day he passed was on the twins birthday Macie and jacie and they where pleased that such a thing could happen. And the one thing they care the most about is losing their dad and when their birthday comes year round they go visit the grave and have a birthday party their it’s just the sadiest thing to see that two of his kids really miss him and when the goto bed they always listen to this song as a bed time song and it helps me and the kids get focused on the fact that their dad is dead i really miss him

Kenny, this is one amazing song. This past year i heard it for the first time at a funeral for a good friend who was killed in a tragic car accident which ejected him form the car. I’d have to say my entire highschool attended this funeral and this song brought everyone to their knees in tears. This song really does mroe for people then jsut hearing a song, i think this song really touched alot of people. Keep up the good work.

I lost a dear friend and companion my brother was killed in a head on collision on October 24th 2003, on October 26 1985 my dad passed away from natural causes when I was Eleven, so that now leaves mom and I. I am married with two lovely children of my own and my brother stood for me as my best man at my marriage, when this song was released I can see how the lost love really still hurts, oh sure the memories are still there, but the day the tragic news came the sun was shining brighter that day than any other day after, on that warm but very cold October day. (by the way he is still the best man)
