Only the Good Songtext
von Control

Only the good die young
For Sting, for Liam, for Bry, for Col

When you′re young and growing up and you need someone to trust
Most of the people that you meet you won't see again for dust
Some try too hard to be your friend, your instinct just says no
It won′t last for two minutes before you come to blows
The moment that I saw him, it cut me like a knife
I knew without a word was said that we'd be friends for life
I saw the twinkle in his eye, I knew he'd have the crack
When I was causing chaos, he′d always have my back

Only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good die young

We′ll never see his cheeky face or hear his awful jokes
We'll never have a sneaky beer or see another show
He′s gone upstairs before his time, he's left a massive hole
He′s still with us everywhere, he's in our heart and soul


Only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good die young

Nothing′s ever gonna be the same
Nothing's ever gonna be the same
Nothing's ever gonna be the same now you′re gone
Nothing′s ever gonna be the same
Nothing's ever gonna be the same
Nothing′s ever gonna be the same now you're gone
Nothing′s ever gonna be the same
Nothing's ever gonna be the same
Nothing′s ever gonna be the same now you're gone
Nothing's ever gonna be the same
Nothing′s ever gonna be the same
Nothing′s ever gonna be the same now you're gone


Only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good die young
Only the good die young

They shall grow not old as we that are left grow old
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn
The going down of the sun in the morning
The going down of the sun in the morning
