Jeff Carson - Real Life

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
