[00:06.00]
[00:10.44]There was a guy at my school when i was in high school
[00:14.39]We'd ride side by side in the morning on our bicycles
[00:16.87]Never even spoken or faced each other
[00:19.56]But on the last hill we'd race each other
[00:22.52]When we reached the racks we'd each go our own way
[00:25.21]I wasn't in his classes, didn't know his name
[00:27.71]When we finally got to speak he just stared at his feet
[00:30.75]And mumbled a sentence that ended with 'James'
[00:35.66]
[00:39.04]I was young and caught in the crowd
[00:42.40]I didn't know then what I know now
[00:45.17]I was dumb and I was proud
[00:47.87]And I'm sorry
[00:50.80]If I could go back do it again
[00:53.64]I'd be someone you could call friend
[00:56.52]Please please believe that I'm sorry
[01:00.53]
[01:01.47]Well he was quite a big guy, kinda shy and quiet
[01:04.72]When the kids called him weird he didn't try and deny it
[01:07.51]Every lunchtime he'd spend walking by himself
[01:10.20]Round the boundary of the grounds til he heard the bell
[01:12.95]Well one day I found him, joined him on his walk
[01:15.61]We were silent for a while until we started to talk
[01:18.62]I told him my family were fighting in court
[01:21.73]He said his step-dad and him always fought
[01:24.24]We talked about music - he was into punk
[01:27.33]He told me all the bands that I liked were junk
[01:30.10]I said I'd never heard the songs the Sex Pistols sang
[01:32.91]I laughed back at him and then the ball rang
[01:39.93]
[01:41.70]I was young and caught in the crowd
[01:44.60]I didn't know then what I know now
[01:47.31]I was dumb and I was proud
[01:49.86]And I'm sorry
[01:52.71]If I could go back do it again
[01:55.89]I'd be someone you could call friend
[01:58.58]Please please believe that I'm sorry
[02:04.79]
[02:14.42]It was after school in the afternoon
[02:17.98]The corridors were crowded as we came out of the rooms
[02:20.70]Three guys I knew pushed him into the cement
[02:23.64]Threw away his bag and said he had no friends
[02:26.50]He yelled that he did and he looked around
[02:29.21]Tried getting up but they pushed him on down
[02:32.23]That's when he saw me, called out my name
[02:36.79]And I turned my back, and just walked away
[02:42.92]And I turned my back, and just walked away
[02:48.53]
[02:49.43]I was young and caught in the crowd
[02:52.46]I didn't know then what I know now
[02:55.24]I was dumb and I was proud
[02:57.37]And I'm sorry
[03:00.34]If I could go back do it again
[03:03.31]I'd be someone you could call friend
[03:06.56]Please please believe that I'm sorry
[03:12.57]
[03:17.11]Please please believe that I'm sorry
