I don't have enough specifics to Google for a name that I know of but, I have enough general themes for someone here to get it...

Okay, its by Kenny Chesney.

Not sure when it came out.

Some of the lyrics are about graduation, South Carolina, and a beach. I thought that the full lyric mgiht have been about going to a beach after the graduation prom or something, but I could be wrong. Definitely graduation, SC and a beach in there though.

I think the gneral theme of the song was about growing up, there was a lyric implying that at some point, I think maybe in the chorus.

Any ideas?

It may be "I go Back"
I looked up the lyrics to the song.
here they are. I hope its what your looking for

I go back**************************************************************************

“Jack and Diane” painted a picture of my life and my dreams,
Suddenly this crazy world made more sense to me
Well I heard it today and I couldn’t help but sing along
Cause everytime I hear that song...

I go back to a two toned short bed Chevy
Drivin my first love out to the levvy
Livin life with no sense of time
And I go back to the feel of a fifty yard line
A blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine
Wishin time would stop right in its tracks
Everytime I hear that song, I go back

I used to rock all night to “Keep On Rockin Me Baby”
Frat parties, college bars, just tryin to impress the ladies
I heard it today and I couldn’t help but sing along
Cause everytime I hear that song....

I go back to the smell of an old gym floor
The taste of salt on the Carolina shore
After graduation and drinkin goodbye to friends
And I go back to watchin summer fade to fall
Growin up too fast and I do recall
Wishin time would stop right in its tracks
Everytime I hear that song, I go back, I go back

We all have a song that somehow stamped our lives
Takes us to another place and time

So I go back to a pew,preacher, and a choir
Singin bout God, brimstone, and fire
And the smell of Sunday chicken after church
And I go back to the loss of a real good friend
And the sixteen summers I shared with him
Now “Only The Good Die Young” stops me in my tracks
Everytime I hear that song, I go back....
