Everyone fell in love with the heart-wrenching tune, and it quickly became one of Garth’s signature songs. “If Tomorrow Never Comes” was also his first single to hit #1 on the Billboard Country Singles chart and named the Favorite Country Single at the 1991 AMAs.

He wrote it with Kent Blazy, who is also responsible for the songs Patty Loveless’ “Can’t Get Enough,” Brooks’ “Ain’t Goin’ Down (‘Til The Sun Comes Up),” and Chris Young’s “Gettin’ You Home,” to name a few.

With all that being said, the song is definitely a favorite for many.

When he sings the lyrics “‘Cause I’ve lost loved ones in my life/Who never knew how much I loved them/Now I live with the regret/That my true feelings for them never were revealed” you can really feel the passion and emotion Brooks sings with.
