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 watch 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 is gonna leave in the fall
Some might ask how he stands so tall
His life was changed with a telephone call
Not even he understands it all
I watch my son, shovel in hand
Go from bulletproof boy to a broken 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 watch 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
Well, goodbye two boys
Yeah, goodbye two boys
Oh, goodbye my boy
