Lyrics
[instrumental intro] [verse 1] I still remember that look in your eyes,
When you told me you were leaving for the very last time.
I begged and pleaded 'til my tears ran dry.
But this was the end for you and your life.
[pre-chorus] You weren't here for very long.
I still can't believe you're gone!
[chorus 1] Why do the good always die young?
How is it fair they only get a short run?
O! Why do the good always die young?
How can I remain strong....
When it's way too early to mourn?!
[verse 2] You should have outlived me.
Do you now know what I mean?
When I say that it's too early?
O! It's way too early to mourn!
[instrumental] [chorus 2] Why do the good always die young?
How is it fair they only get a short
Why do the good always die young?
How can I remain strong....
When you got taken by the storm...
[hook] I wish I had all the answers.
Instead I'm left with a bunch of questions.
Repeating them over and over again without hearing a damn thing!
[chorus 3] Why do the good always die young?
How is it fair they only get a short run?
O! Why do the good always die young?
How can I remain strong....
When my heart can't move on?
[outro] Why do the good always die young?
I wish I had the answer...
It's just not fair.
Why do the good always die young?
