Tim McGraw Quotes:
Five years ago I figured we were at the top of our game and that was the best it was going to get, but with every album it seems to keep on building on itself.
"I am heartbroken by the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina in my home state. Like so many Americans I am watching the news reports with great sadness. But it's at times like these that each of us must work together to provide lifesaving aid to those in terrible need."
"She said I bet you don't remember me
And I said only every other memory."?
We all take different paths in life, but no matter where we go, we take a little of each other everywhere.
Of course the song is special to me, but I think it is special to a lot of people.
We knew we could make a great record because we had the confidence of the last album. We were then able to go further, take it to another level.
I think everyone has there own ways bit in the end we all are talking about the same thing
