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
A get to drownin' in the Blues
And I find myself thinkin'
Well - what would you do?
Yes! - it was such an operation
Forever paying every due
Hell! You made a sensation!
Oh! You found a way through!
One by one
Only the good die young
They're only flyin' 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 in 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, never saying goodbye...
One by one
Only the good die young
They're only flyin' too close to the sun
Cryin' for nothing...
Cryin' for no one...
No one but you.
