Gone Too Soon Songtext
von Chris Quintrell

News of another soul lost
A tragic death today
Celebrate the exceptional
In their talented way

Remembering the loss of our heroes
Influential in history
Stars of film or music
And the way they used to be

Like ice cream melting in the sun
Can only last so long
A taste for more, another tune
They are gone too soon
Gone too soon
Gone too soon
They are gone too soon
Gone too soon
Gone too soon
They are gone too soon


Only so much self to give
A piece of burning soul
The life that′s got to leave
Won't fulfil another goal

Fragile lives of our idols
A reflection of who we assume
Inspiring and filling us with hope
While the pressures of fame, consume

Like a flower wilting in the sun
Roots are dry and it′s begun
Surely it's a fated doom?
That they are gone too soon
Gone too soon
Gone too soon
They are gone too soon
Gone too soon
Gone too soon
They are gone too soon

Accident or intention
The passing of a time
Changed now forever more
Going down a different line


We will never know the story
And never really know the truth
What was going on in that mind
And who really has the proof?
