  • Lee Thomas Miller has written and co-written some great country songs. This is just one more under his belt.

  • Man I do miss that. And I do want that back. Thanks Trace for a great song.

  • i have two little sisters and i keep telling my self this because i am gonna miss the days of when they don't fight back but then again i cant wait until then

  • Every time I hear this song my eyes sting with tears a little....beautiful song with exactly the right sentiments. My kids have all moved on - college, their own places, etc. I remember them wreaking havoc in my house like it was yesterday. All of a sudden, they're young adults!! Don't blink...

  • Peopl constantly are telling me, how slowly the years and the months and the days have been passing by. No lie bigger than that has ever beeng told to me. Everything has mved by too quickly. This past January I was taken into a family, and in just a few more months a year will hve passed. I only have three years left until I'm an adult. I wish time would move more slowly, so that I could have more time with the people who cared enough to adopt me.

  • Just wait until you are about 60, move back home and see people you haven't seen 40 years. I didn't miss this until I got back. Now, it's become part of my heart and soul. I realize how special it was to be able to grow up in a fishing village with a wild and crazy Mama, a beach and great friends.

  • i liked this song in high school, but i didnt think about it much, now im in college and when i pass my high schools stadium and see this generations high school football games, i get really sad and i miss it, i remember who bad i wanted to get out of high school, and sometimes i wanted to fastfoward college, but now im breathing and enjoying every minute of college, because i know im going to miss it

  • Have you ever noctised if you havent seen some1for a long time how slow it seams in ur life for just a moment but then u see all of ur famley,every1else that you havent seen for a while(1-2years)and then you think2your self life is moving2fast cuz in reatley life is moving to fast some times i look bace and wish i could just go back and change alot of things in the past but i cant cuz if i did i would not be how i am or were i am in life and once you think about it u realy dont whant to change.

  • What A fantastic Song! how true, your gonna miss those days! How very fast they grow up and begin thier own journey and the days you once knew and they knew, are now a memory! Time moves so very Quickly, Embrace Every Moment!

  • i never thought id say that i missed high school.. i just graduated this past june.. i dont wana grow up =/

  • i love thi song this was my cousins and her bffs song when they had 8th grad and they go to the same school now i thought that was funny now some of them are bitch now lol but still i love this song <3

  • I just graduated from High school this year. And already time is flying past. Still feels like only last week I graduated...but instead it is already October...best thing anyone can do is just be grateful for what you have day in and out. Because time does fly. And it unfortunately won't slow down.

  • @warsteve01 I know!! It's scary!!

  • i reallllyyyy cranked it up at 2:57 and on.... life's way to fast. i need to appreciate it more. period.

  • This was my class song and at first i didnt think i would miss High School but what i would give for one more year

  • I dedicate this song to my son - 8months

  • I dedicate this song to my kids. They are the love of my life and wouldnt have it anyother way. I have 2 daughters- 24 and 4, 4 sons- 21, 20, 11 and 6. I love you guys to death.

  • i saw him perform this in a concert with toby keith[: <3

  • I miss being young and I'm only 34

  • This so is very much true, no matter waht happens in life your gonna miss it.

  • love this song but really if u think about it, it really does apply both 2 the children & 2 parents..kids can't wait 2 grow up & parents so busy working they don't slow down 2 enjoy the kids while they r kids

  • Yep, I miss school.

  • this is my senior class song and actually makes a lot of sense on why. life moves so fast, first you are in elementary school and the next moment you are going to graduate.

  • I'M ONLY 13 AND MY BIG BROTHER IS ABOUT TO BE IN COLLAGE NEXT YEAR PLEASE PLEAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEE­E STOP TIME i don't want my big brother to go and taught me so much

  • @beanybop100 - what a sweet thing to write! My daughter is 18 and just left for college. When both of my boys went first, she was devastated but they are as close as ever. I am sure your big brother adores you like they adore her! :)

  • I wish this was our senior song. I didn't even think about entering this. Ours ended up being Good Riddance by Green Day. Good song but i think this would of been way better

  • @31RyMan ours was worse then that!!!! some werid r&b song "we made it"

  • well never want these day go so by so fast we want them to stay longer

  • This song speaks the truth. I remember how I was like before I turned 18. I wanted out and my own freedom and was constantly wishing my days away. Life hit me pretty hard and I had to grow up way too fast when my father died. I was 18 when he did and I had to step up to help take care of my momma. I'd give almost anything to go back to being a kid when things were easy and simple. I'm 21 now and life is just going by way too fast. Enjoy things while you can.

  • Check my version out!!! Gotta love Trace adkins

  • Thank you! That is all I can say, Thank you.

  • This song makes me cry. It's my favorite country song.

  • great song and so true

  • Life is full of regrets.......turn those regrets into rewards. Love your mother, father, brother, and sister. I would give anything to be able to do so.

  • This song should be for everybody.....just SLOW down! Enjoy the simple things in life.You know the busier you are the quicker life will pass you by! Think about

  • this was the best place to grow up... going back for homecoming next month!

  • I'm seeing him Sat.. cannot wait

  • That dad at 139 seems a little creepy lol but good song

  • I can't stop listening to this song. I love it sooo much! It's amazing.

  • I'm only 17, and after hearing this song, I actually realized life is going way too fast. I mean, I remember when I was a freshmen in highschool, and I was thinking, this is gonna take forever to get outta highschool. Now I'm a senior, and I realized that it FLEW by. I really wish I coulda made the best of it then, cause now I regret it. It's sickening thinking that soon I will be moving out and taking on life by myself. I AM REALLY GONNA MISS THESE DAYS. Thanks Trace for making me realize that.

  • my eighth grade graduation song

  • This song is beautiful!

  • I'm not a huge fan of Trace Adkins but i do love this song and vid

  • what was that name of that movie with trace adkins in it can some one piz tell me?

  • I am a single mom of 2 kids and I can't believe everything that has happened, I look back on the past and actually feel truly blessed, and wouldn't change a thing because it has helped make me into the person I am today

  • This song is amazing, im currently a senior in high school, all these years i've been rushing and just been wanting to get out, and watching this video i look back at all the things i've done already and where im at now, and am i really ready to be out, im gonna miss it alot, hanging with my friends everyday!!!!!!!!!

  • TIME IS A STRIPER DOING JUST FOR YOU

  • Im a senior in highschool, Damn.. I think on how life has went by so fast</3..

  • Oh what truer words have ever been spoken. Weather it's one child or ten

    "You Are Going To Miss It" u may be thinking your crazy but mark my words u are going to be saying that lady was so right. As they grow & move on your empty nest will haunt u. It's hopefully just u and your husband then & your time for some romantic weekends if u have kept your Love alive through all of the raising of the kids that is. Life & Love are hard & now is your time. So Enjoy It.

    "But You Are Going To Miss It".

  • I can appreciate this song so much as I'm on the Mom end now and my babies are almost grown. It goes by so fast. One day it's "my little pony" and the next it's "my own apartment". If you love someone, tell them and never stop telling them.

  • this was my gradaution song aww class 0f 2008

  • Remember whatever stage you are in your life You're gonna miss this!!!

  • @erschutter learn how to spell

  • this is the only decent song he has

  • This song makes me cry, I try to tell my dad this all the time. He ruins all the happy moments we could have by fighting over all the little things. Sometimes i just wish he could slow down and look around and appreciate what he has instead of wish it was better....

  • His words are so very true my kid's tell me how they should have listen to me more. But they wanted to grow up and get on with their life's!! I just thank GOD for the help in raising them!!

  • To all my 2010 graduate friends- this is for you!

  • favee (Y)

  • i think this song is for the people 25 who missed the "like button"

  • i pray for the 25 people who have bad aim and clicked dislike(see the song i pray for you)

  • good song ...good video

  • some say life moves to slowly, but that isn't true, im already 17 and about to start grade 12, i truly wish life did move slower so i could appreciate the things and people in my life more. it ain't to late for some of you, appreciate what you have while it's still there.

  • @akaame12 Wise beond your years.Enjoy it man!

  • @akaame12 You still have a long life ahead of you

  • @akaame12 well said i'm 48 and wish i had done some things diffrent

  • @akaame12 amen to that

  • @akaame12 I totally agree with you! Great comment! I graduated last year, and this was one of the songs that we had in our video. You'll miss it, so take it slow! :)

  • Everything in this song is so true. Today, after 14 years i went back to my old high school to get my transcript to start college and just being there brought back so many memories! i just wanted to cry. time doesn't stop! All I have to say is enjoy every minute that life gives you! Don't waste time and go after your dreams! Don't let nothing stop you. I asure you 'you're gonna miss this".

  • you know some ppl dont realize what they had until they leave there hometown but this video is true it was filmed in sarepta and plain dealing louisiana which trace is from sarepta and the video was filmed in sarepta and plain dealing so please dont forget where u came from because you will miss it eventually and will end up back there

  • My brother died on memorial day rescuing a father and son who had come to the ocean to celebrate the oldest daughters wedding the day before. He left 2 baby girls behind...he made every moment with them count. The family he saved is now wracked with guilt and its the hope of our family that they can come to terms with my brothers sacrifice and remember to appreciate every day they have together and each of those special moments his sacrifice mad possible. Dont ever take life for granted...

  • closest any song has made to making me cry

  • this song is so true it makes me cry when my lil sister says she wants to make her own life and wants to move out already she doesnt understand

  • i just went to my 30th class reunion i loved every minute of it i graduated from a small town in arkansas and live in a big city now and let me tell you going home was absolutly awesome we had a great class...

  • see.... this is why i stopped listening to country.... always so emotional.... = (

  • Good for ANY age, not just for the youthful!

  • i love this song it rocks!

  • im upset bc i cant post this song

  • THANKS ...KATHY ....<3

  • its hard to believe how fast ur life goes. When ur life is almost over, makes u want to go back. U miss ur parents and all u can ever think about is how much u would love to see them again. So before u even think about growing up just stop and take it step by step. Everything will get to u in time.

  • Sorry to disagree with all y'all - I don't miss "this". I wouldn't go back to HS for anything and as a parent, I raised 3 boys who are all in their 20's and 30's now. I occasionally miss the connection we had while watching them grow up but I LOVE where they are now and would NOT want to go back in time. It's great to have wonderful memories - don't need to relive them. It's what you learn along the way that matters. Have a GREAT life, wherever you are.

  • Almost makes me not want to grow up

    hard to believe im already 17

  • im 17, im takin life as it comes to me, and it seems now, its coming too fast, and now looking back, im scared to turn 18, its like i hit that milestone, but i dont know where im going from there, its scary, dont grow up too fast your young days are the best ones

  • this is so sad my big bro was killed by ied it is a roadside bomb this song reminds me of him missin him every day and minute this reminds of when he said life is to short u got to let go of things i told him im not letting go that's when he died in my hand i miss my big brother

    8-12-10

    r.i.p big bro i love u big bro forever missed

  • @youngmarine231 I'm so sorry for your loss, prayers are with you

  • @LakerZnVikings thankx very much i thank u very much :)

  • @youngmarine231 I thank you, your family, and your brother for your sacrifies for this country. God bless you guys.

  • @LakerZnVikings - I completely agree - YOUNG MARINE 231 - YOU ARE A HERO, YOUR SELFLESS SACRIFICE AND THAT OF YOUR FAMILY WILL ALWAYS BE IN OUR HEARTS - THANK YOU IS NEVER ENOUGH BUT IT IS ALL I HAVE.......GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY AND THANKS FOR ALLOWING ME TO LAY MY HEAD DOWN IN THE LAND OF THE FREE

  • @youngmarine231 bless you

  • @youngmarine231 HooRahhh

    Lost my little brother on Memorial day as he saves 2 others.

  • Went from "Honky Tonk Badonkadonk" to this... thats impressive

  • this is so true, im only 18 and i already do want to go back

  • I miss when i was a little kid and life was so simple , now im older and always regret saying that i cant wait till im older , just wish i appreciated it more back then when my and my family were still together and before i ever got married then a few years later divorced

    I would just like to say to appreciate the things you have because they could be there 1 day and be gone the next and i always wish i could go back to that time

  • im 25, a single mom to a 4 year old son, and i really do miss those days. i miss my highschool years, i miss my irresponsible teenage years, i miss hanging with my friends every weekend, i miss not worrying about having a job because i was in school and my parents supported me, i miss my son's infant years, the ones that back then i couldnt wait to leave behind especially the waking up every 3hrs and the constant crying when he had colic...but now i miss it all. life goes by too fast.

  • Such a great song It has so much meaning to It! 

  • Nostalgia hits hard. Even at 18... I always wished to grow up to make my own rules and have my own place and make my own decisions.. Now I wish I could be with my family, be with my ex... My one wish is that I can see the cherishable moments in life and savor them. I miss hugging my Nana, and I miss waking up smelling breakfast and going downstairs to see my family up and together... I really miss my family

  • Love this Songgggg!!! =]

  • I don't like MOST of Trace Adkins new Country Stuff (I'm more of a fan of his older stuff) but I do like this Country Song a lot. :)

  • I hate country and love this song

  • hes gotta sweet ol chevy pickup truck

  • This song is so good. I am young but my parents are divorced and two or three years ago I had to choose between living with my mom or my dad. I know there are people worse off but a lot of times I wish so much that I could just skip this time in my life. This song helps me remember that I need to slow down

  • I miss my grandfather so much, and this song reminds me of him because i took for granted all the times i spent with him and when he passed i was so mad at my self for not spending as much time with him as i should had.

  • This is an awesome video! I just love this!

  • This is a beautiful song!!

  • if you think about it every kid wants time to hurry up almost everyday (like me)... during school... but sometimes we just need to have a wake up call about what is after school... how much responsibility there is... so instead of wanting school to be over... take your time

  • Comment removed

  • If you don't like this video, then why are you even watching it? But anyways. I love this song. It speaks the truth,. <33.

  • makes me sad as i do miss my kids and i miss those days i loved being a mommy . even tho at the time i could have just screamed .. i miss my kids.. now they are grown and dont need me any more

  • @luvmebabe25 They will always need you no matter how they act or what they say, a child will always need there parent even if its just a person to talk to or a shoulder to cry on. Please never forget that. :). God Bless.

  • @luvmebabe25 lol. That's funny, I thought I would grow up and not need my parents. I call them more than any of my friends asking them how they made it. Life is rough, but that's what makes the good moments so special. But your children will always need you. Trust me. I am one tough kid but I couldn't make it without my mom.

  • i am 16 but i hate my life sometimes cuz my dad is a bitch

  • Such an awesome song bye Trace Adkins and one of the few songs that really make me cry. I have a son that did move out when he was 18 because he didn't get along with his step father and still doesn't so I hardly see him at all

  • This is such a true song. I am 23 years old i had my son 3 years ago. It doesnt seem like 3 years has passed. I was all ready to leave my parents home..now i miss being home with my parents. I ve been on my own when i moved out on my own after h s graduation in 2005 i was 18. Time flys by so fast you dont think of it when you younger.

  • I already miss this

  • I already know when im older i'll wish i was a kid again.

  • I think about being younger and in school and wanting to grow up and I miss those times so much... Then I think about when my daughter was born and how scary and beautiful it was taking care of her and I miss those times so much as well. She's five now and I know I'll have more of these thoughts for as long as I live... I hope. :)

  • I'm only 13 and i already know what this song is talking about relates to life

  • True .....

  • i love this song it's sad that it is ture

  • Hmm this makes me wonder.. What it's like to grow upp? Am i really going to miss my years as a child..? :|

  • does anybody realize that there is a gun rack in his truck

  • @Shikamaruowner of course there is. He is a country boy.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • this song can relate to anyones life this is one of my many favorit songs by him and i hope others like this song my mom told me when i was 13 that i shouldnt wish my life away and i havent since and my life is just going by faster and faster each day my grandma has asked me where have the years gone and she tells me alot of stories from when i was a baby

  • @006sami

    Grandma's Are Real Good For Remembering Times From Long Ago..

    It's Your Life's History Don't Forget And Listen To Her As Well As Your Wise Choice In Listening To your Mother. Life Goes By So Fast. "Live So that It Will Have Mattered That You Were Here" Another Great Quote is "That We Are All Living On Borrowed Time" Enjoy Your Life And Don't Be In Such a Hurry to get To Someplace That You Will Evidentually Get To Anyway! Take Care & God Bless.

    Sincerely,

    Ga Country Girl

  • i have always loved this song since it first came out

  • i love this song lol

  • this song is amazing

  • Im 18 and anyone who is reading this, slow down you can never go back, age brings more responsibility enjoy it while you have it, Mom and dad make their rules to protect you, and when you get out and on your own you will realize it was for your good, I miss being 6 years old every year that goes by i miss it now.

  • @Bigbob11221 It is not worse. In fact, the best times of my life happened when I was older. I am now almost 40. It is true you miss a lot of they way things were. But people need to live in the now.

    Enjoy every moment. Life goes by so quickly.

  • I think of this song every time I look at my kids.

  • im fourteen and i love this song it makes u think about who and what is important i dont want to miss any thing but sometimes its hard

  • @GaCountryGirl024 how did your daughter

  • it's kinda scary.. knowing that all you ever wanted was to grow up..now that ur growing up.. all u wanna do is stay young forever.. ;\

  • Im 15 and all my life ive wanted to grow up and get out of the house. ive always thought tht once im out i can reallly start my life, but this song kinda brings me back to earth.

  • I just graduated in the spring and I hadn't cried at all about moving on with life. This song just made me cry the most since I've graduated. All of my friends are leaving for school or are getting to go back to High School (younger than me) and I'm getting to the next stage of my life. But I just want to re-live my senior year over and over again. Or be a sophomore again. Because that was the best year of my life.
