LYRICS:
Back in '41. you met a brown-eyed boy
Who called you pretty
He'd walk every day, couple miles out of his way
To hold your hand and keep you company
Your mama said, don't call it love at 14
But sittin' on that front porch swing
He gave you his picture in a locket
That you wore around your neck
Left it right beside your heart
So you would not forget
The way it felt when he held your hand
And you swore that you would never take it off
And the butterflies you felt said it all
You were falling for the boy inside your locket
Back in '43, the brown-eyed boy went overseas
And had to leave town for a little while
He swore he'd marry you
As soon as the war was through
You would be his wife
Standing in the pouring rain
You cried as you watched him ride away
But everyday
You had his picture in a locket
That you wore around your neck
Left it right beside your heart so you would not forget
The way his kiss tasted on your lips
And everyday felt like a lifetime with him gone
And you prayed that God would bring him safely home
'Cause you made a promise
To the boy inside your locket
Oh, 60 years you two had together
But he's been gone for a couple now
And it breaks my heart to see you struggle to remember
But I've been writing all your memories down
And I stopped by today
To read a couple pages
Grandma, you sure look pretty
And you smiled that smile
The one I haven't seen in quite a while
And you said to me, 1 want you to keep
His picture in a locket that I wore around my neck
The one I left beside my heart so I would not forget
The greatest love and the greatest man I've ever known
But it's gettin' time for me to head on home
She said, that brown-eyed boy is waiting
And I don't want to keep him long
Heaven is calling
And she said, my heart is longing
For the boy inside your locket
Lauren should get this a movie made off this song. It would be beautiful to see a story like this to unfold on the big screen
This song reminds me of my grandma who passed away four months ago. I miss her so much. I talked to her like my best friend. I would do anything to talk to her again.
this song touched my heart, reminded me of my grandmother she is 95 and my granddad who passed away several years ago. so touching, love u lauren!
The ending made me cry.
i think it sounds magnificent when she sings it and if i could get to sing it i would
this song makes me cry everytime i listen
Why can't every love be this pure and strong?
This song makes me cry. I lost my mom and my grandma. I miss them so much. I love you both.
those pictures go perfect with the song!! so good!
I’m crying listening to this...such a beautiful and touching song. I love you Lauren! Beautiful job! ❤️❤️
She should win a Grammy for this album!!!!
Wish there were more songs like thisone, and more singers like Lauren Alaina. I cried and cried: this song, as sung by Lauren, is so beautiful, fragile and powerful all at the same time. Thank you to the composer and to the performer - both inspirational. Keep on sharing your gifts! This world needs you.
No one believed me when I said I fell in love at 16, and now it's more than two years later and I still say I love him everyday
I cried. C': This song is so touching. Lauren Alaina has done it! She has captured the hearts of us and I love her.
i think this is the first song that has brought tears to my eyes in a loooong time. so beautiful
Hadn't heard this before, was actually googling songs about jewellery for a theme I'm doing, glad I found this
I wish every relationship didn't revolve around sex. Sex is for marriage. save your innocence for when you promise yourself to another, everyone be allot more happier in the long run.
Sarah Moore I agree. A relationship should be about trusting that person to love you in every way, not just sexual. Boys now a days only think about sex. It;s ridiculous. You should wait until you are truly ready and have made sure you have found the right guy. You don't have to get married first because my aunt and uncle aren't and they have two girls. But the point is, you don't have to have sex just to have fun with your boyfriend/girlfriend,
Very moving
I always wondered why she never released this song as a single, I think its best song on the album :)
This song is so gorgeous. I hope me and my love get sixty years together. It's amazing how many young couples don't even make it past five anymore.
seriously..this song makes me cry!! i love it!
Such a beautiful song. I love you Lauren!
I love this song. Chills every time
This song remind me of my great grandma. She lived all her life with my great grandpa and now that he's gone shes confuzed and is very forgetful of memories they had :(
this song is so sad... i sang this to my grandama and made her cry.... ILY grandma!
Wow! Great song, incredible performance by a really talented singer who shows how good she is on this very difficult song to sing.
what a wonderful story line in this song..sang beautifully!
I always cry to when I hear this song to my mom and dad and brother and one of my real good friends and I love this song I was 16 when my mom passed and then I was 8 when my dad passed 15 when my foster dad passed and then just born when my brother died and now I'm 19 and still can't take it all in anymore don't know why
+Olivia Creech Sorry hun, just stay strong I am 17 and 8 months ago I lost my 2 day old daughter. My dad has been gone for 1 year
beautiful, heartfelt and meaningful. lovely song.
this song reminds me of my mom and daddy ! lord i sure wish my mom was still here with me i have to much i want to tell her !!! never know what you have loss until ur mother is gone !
Makes me think of my "grandparents" They had a great love that will never die even when he did.
Beautiful........if only wishes came true
why cant i stop crying
this song made me cry :')
i listened to this song for the first time right now. i cried.
this is one of the best songs on Lauren's CD but it is unlikely her record label will release it or will country radio play it due to its length. If they did it would go right to #1 on the charts because it tugs on the heart strings and people will talk about it. Dirt road prayer has a better chance of making her first big hit as the third release from her album will likely be a slow song. Just one big hit will make Lauren a break out star!
I just love this song!!! Reminds of my Grampy and Nana!
almost made me cry.. -_- This song is awesome! ♥
I love this song it's beautiful
this is the first time i heard it, it made me cry it reminds me of my granddaddy i miss you papaw!!

wow... crying.
This song is her Grandma's story. It talks about 1941 and 1943. And I'm assuming the brown-eyed boy is her Grandpa.
Sweet story.

@VictoriaBatarseh for broader search, go to Google image search. I type in specific 'theme' e.g: locket or couple/sweet couple. Remember always put 'photography' (e.g sweet couple photography) so you can get beautiful photos. Most of the host was Tumblr and WeHeartIt that's why I told you.
almost made me cry
love this song :)
....That's the saddest song I've ever heard!! :'(
omg this is so sad i cried but its a good song....
Heard it wasn't actually written by Lauren, but she also teared up and something about the song reminding her about the Notebook.
This is my favorite song. its amaing and she is so pretty and had my vote all through amreican idol and her and scotty were hard to choose from
