The Boy From Class

AlphabetLyrics.com


I barely knew the boy from class
We didn't talk too much
'cause I was hiding in the back
And he sat in the front
He was always joking with his friends
A smile on his face
Out of everyone I never guessed
That it would end this way.

He was only seventeen
There's so much that he's missed
I just turned 21
And I've barely even lived
That's the hardest part 'cause
I still got my life ahead
And it hurts to think that his is really over
'cause I keep getting older.

I barely knew the boy from class
We spoke a word or two
But I could always hear him laugh
From way across the room
So when I heard the news
It really took me by surprise
How somebody as kind as him
Could hurt so much inside.

He was only seventeen
There's so much that he's missed
I just turned 21
And I've barely even lived
That's the hardest part 'cause
I still got my life ahead
And it hurts to think that his is really over
'cause I keep getting older.
