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.
Noone could reach them,
Noone but you.

One by one
Only the Good die young.
They're only flying to 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 would you do?

Yes! - it was such an operation,
Forever paying every due.
 [bad word]  you made a sensation
(sensation),
You found a way through - and
(You found a way through)!

One by one
Only the Good die young.
They're only flying to close to the sun,
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, never saying goodbye...

One by one
Only the Good die young.
They're only flying to close to the sun.
Crying for nothing,
Crying for noone,
Noone but you..
