A hand above the water

An angel reaching for the sky

Is it raining in heaven

Do you want us to cry

And everywhere the broken hearted

On every lonely avenue

No-one could reach them

No-one but you

One by one

Only the good die young

They're only flying too close to the sun

And life goes on

Without you

Another tricky situation

I get to drowning in the blues

And I find myself thinking

Well what will you do

Yes it was such an operation

Forever paying every due

You made a sensation

Ohh you found a way through

One by one

Only the good die young

They're only flying too close to the sun

And we'll remember

Forever

And now the party must be over

I guess we'll never understand

The sense of your leaving

Was it the way it was planned

And so we grace another table

And raise our glasses one more time

There's a face at the window

And I ain't never ever saying goodbye

Oh one by one

Only the good die young

They're only flying too close to the sun

Crying for nothing

Crying for no-one

No-one but you

You
