[Verse 1]
I was a little boy of nine years old
The whole world in my hands
Tryin' to toss that ball across the yard
A game of catch with my old man
He would always say, "I'm sorry"
Every time he had to leave
And I was much to young to understand
When he would say to me
[Chorus]
When you're young you always think
The sun is gonna shine
There'll come a day
You'll have to say hello to goodbye
Sit down, son, come take my hand
Look me in the eye
Take these words, promise me
You'll live before you die
[Verse 2]
I was barely seventeen, summer of seven-nine
Already, I was feelin' like I was runnin' out of time
I had this girl, we fell in love
Should I say that she had me?
Then one fateful night, it changed our lives
And made a memory
I was a little boy of nine years old
The whole world in my hands
Tryin' to toss that ball across the yard
A game of catch with my old man
He would always say, "I'm sorry"
Every time he had to leave
And I was much to young to understand
When he would say to me
[Chorus]
When you're young you always think
The sun is gonna shine
There'll come a day
You'll have to say hello to goodbye
Sit down, son, come take my hand
Look me in the eye
Take these words, promise me
You'll live before you die
[Verse 2]
I was barely seventeen, summer of seven-nine
Already, I was feelin' like I was runnin' out of time
I had this girl, we fell in love
Should I say that she had me?
Then one fateful night, it changed our lives
And made a memory
