Testo 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 like



Chorus:

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



Chorus:

And I never was the same again

From that moment on, real life began

With you, with you



By your side

Scared to death

Felt the pain that 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

I laid our baby across your breast



Chorus:

And I never was the same again

From that moment on, real life began
