Jeff Carson - Real Life lyrics

rate me

I was young, he was old

we both were the same age

Everyday playing fetch, shaking hands

he'd lick my face

I wasn't aware

The day would come

Then he died

For the first I knew what real pain was

I was 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

In the most unlikely situation

There you were

I never was the same again

From that moment on

Real life began

With you

By your side, scared to death

Felt the pain, you were fighting

Placed my palm on your head

Spoke your name, just keep trying

Then you closed your eyes and took one last breath

When it was over you looked up

Laid our baby across your breast

And I never was the same again

From that moment on

Real life began
