No-one But You (only The Good Die Young)

Words and music by brian may



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 drowin' 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

You found a way through - and



One by one

Only the good die young

They're only flyin' too 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 sayin' 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
