I was young,he was old
|
We both, were the same age
|
Everyday, playing fetch
|
Shaking hands
|
He'd lick my face
|
And I was unaware, the day would come
|
And when he died, for the first time I knew what real pain was
|
And I never was the same again
|
From that moment on, real life began
|
Senior high, girlfriends
|
Football games, graduation
|
Summer break, spend my time
|
Filling out, applications
|
A few superficial years went by,
|
They were all a blur
|
And in the most unlikely situation,
|
There you were
|
Yeah.. and i never was the same again,
|
From that moment on real life, began
|
With you... with you...
|
By her side, scared to death,
|
Felt the pain, you were fighting
|
Placed my palm on your head
|
Spoke your name, just keep trying
|
And then you closed your eyes,and took.. one last breath,
|
And when it was over, you looked up,
|
Laid our baby accross your breast
|
I never was the same again. from that moment on, real life began...
