Life can change in the blink of an eye
|
You don't know when and you don't know why
|
"Forever Young" is a big fat lie
|
For the one who lives and the one who dies
|
|
I watched my son - shovel in hand
|
Go from bulletproof boy to a full-grown man
|
The cool dark dirt on the casket lands
|
Nineteen years old and he's buryin' a friend
|
Goodbye two boys, hello one man
|
|
This son of mine will leave in the fall
|
New friends might ask why he stand so tall
|
His life was changed with a telephone call
|
Not even he understands it all
|
|
I watched my son - shovel in hand
|
Go from bulletproof boy to a full-grown man
|
The cool dark dirt on the casket lands
|
Nineteen years old and he's buryin' a friend
|
Goodbye two boys, hello one man
|
|
I watched my son - shovel in hand
|
Go from bulletproof boy to a full-grown man
|
