Taylor Swift - Tim McGraw Lyrics Meaning

Her and her boyfriend in high school, Brandon Borello, used to listen to this singer together. She was a freshman and he was a senior, so she wrote this song because she knew at the end of the year, he'd go to college and they would have to break up, and she just wanted to say that whenever he hears a Tim McGraw song, he should think of her and the good times they had together. She says "When you think Tim McGraw, I hope you think of me."
