Only the Good Die Young - Billy Joel

The demon in your mind will rape you in your bed at night The wisdom of ages, the lies and outrages concealed Time, it waits for no man, my future it is revealed Time, it waits for no man, my fate is sealed If I cancel tomorrow the undead will thank me today Fly in the face of your prophets, I mock your morality plays The moon is red and bleeding, the sun is burned and black The book of life is silent, no turning back Only the good die young All the evil seem to live forever Only the good die young All the evil seem to live forever Only the good die young Only the good die young Mystery madman, a victim of cruel charade Some innocent pawn in an end game, one more stalemate Is death another birthday, a way to kiss your dreams good-bye? Do the undead live within us and look through our eyes? Walking on water are miracles all you can trust Measure your coffin, does it measure up to your lust? So I think I'll leave you with your bishops and your guilt So until the next time, have a good sin Only the good die young All the evil seem to live forever Only the good die young All the evil seem to live forever Only the good die young Only the good die young Seven deadly sins Seven ways to win Seven holy paths to Hell Seven downward slopes Seven bloodied hopes Seven are your burning fires Seven your desires

Vet du att hon är good die young Ta din chans nu before it's gone Gå och lev ditt liv till ditt sista andetag Only good die young Kanske var det sista gången, som jag såg dig Men du fick mig att vakna Det var som om du va fången i dig själv Kommer alltid sakna Vi kanske ses snart, min vän Önskar jag kunde säga Vet du att hon är good die young Ta din chans nu before it's gone Gå och lev ditt liv till ditt sista andetag Only good die young Vet du att hon är good die young Så ta din chans nu before it's gone Gå och lev ditt liv till ditt sista andetag Only good die young Tiden var din största ovän Varje timme, räknar du sekunder Önskar jag kunde gå tillbaka Till våra bästa stunder Det var allt för länge sen Men du kommer aldrig mer igen Vi kanske ses snart, min vän Önskar jag kunde säga Vet du att hon är good die young Ta din chans nu before it's gone Gå och lev ditt liv till ditt sista andetag Only good die young Vet du att hon är good die young Så ta din chans nu before it's gone Gå och lev ditt liv till ditt sista andetag Only good die young Only good die young Only good die young Kanske ses vi långt där borta, min vän Ja, vi möts ju säkert nån gång igen Jag tar chansen nu och fångar den before it's gone Only good die young

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 brokenhearted, 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, 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, Hell, you made a sensation! You found a way through. One by one, only the good die young. They're only flying 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, Or 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 aint ever, ever saying goodbye. And one by one, only the good die young, They're only flying too close to the sun, Crying for nothing, Crying for no-one, No-one but you.

Come out, Virginia, don't let me wait You Catholic girls start much too late Oh, but sooner or later, it comes down to fate I might as well be the one Well, they showed you a statue, told you to pray They built you a temple and locked you away Oh, but they never told you the price that you'd pay For things that you might have done Only the good die young That's what I said Only the good die young Only the good die young You might've heard I run with a dangerous crowd We ain't too pretty, we ain't too proud We might be laughing a bit too loud Oh, but that never hurt no one So come on, Virginia, show me a sign Send up a signal, I'll throw you the line The stained-glass curtain you're hiding behind Never lets in the sun Darlin', only the good die young, whoa I tell, you only the good die young Only the good die young You got a nice white dress and a party on your confirmation You got a brand new soul Ooh, and a cross of gold But, Virginia, they didn't give you quite enough information You didn't count on me When you were counting on your rosary, woah, oh, oh And they say there's a heaven for those who will wait Some say it's better, but I say it ain't I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints The sinners are much more fun You know that only the good die young Oh oh oh, baby I tell ya, only the good die young Only the good die young You said your mother told you all that I could give you was a reputation Oh, she never cared for me But did she ever say a prayer for me? Woah, oh, oh Come out, come out, come out Virginia, don't let me wait You Catholic girls start much too late But sooner or later, it comes down to fate I might as well be the one You know that only the good die young Tell ya, baby You know that only the good die young Only the good die young Only the good... Only the good die young Ooh, ooh Ooh hoo, ooh hoo Ooh hoo!

I've been drunk all night You keep calling Are they happy now? Watchin' us falling Secret we should hide Don't know if I can It's who we are This is who I am Oh tonight they are up for love But our world Isn't ready To Understand us Remember I would be with you Even though we're letting go Guess I need to find someone like you If this is what I have to do 'Cause the Odds are against us Driving to the hills Chasing the sun We are just two boys Don't know why we run If we end it now Heavens got no tears We can fly so high Far away from here Find some light They are up for love But our world Isn't ready If there's open scars Remember I would be with you Even though we're letting go Guess I need to find someone like you If this is what I have to do 'Cause the Odds are against us Let them going You know we should try Oh you know we should try If this what we want You know in our lives It happens just one time There's only one chance Remember I would be with you Even though we're letting go Guess I need to find someone like you If this is what I have to do 'Cause the Odds are against us

I'm tired of fightin' It really messed me up this time Tired of tryin' I'm ready to leave it all behind I don't wanna lose my other me Am I really still right here? I wanna drown with it, I, I... Let the rain come You can never leave the soul unguided I'm still crawling, I can't see no sky yet But sometimes love can come from nothing But love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me This place reminds me I keep my eyes wide shut to hide Denying you're gone now And I am down here all alone Some say that time will heal me I need to get to higher ground But I wanna feel it, I, I... Let the pain come You can never leave the soul unguided I'm still crawling, I can't see no sky yet On broken wings I'm barely flyin' But love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me I need to get home But I keep on holding on, holding on Love don't break me I need to get home But I keep on holding on, holding on Love don't break me Love don't break me You can never leave the soul unguided I'm still crawling, I can't see no sky yet On broken wings I'm barely flyin' But love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me Love don't break me

I can't forget All of the memories, baby I'm wonderin' Do you still want me, baby? I medicate my mind Come iluminate my night I'm all alone I can't face my broken heart So tell me what you wanna do Tell me what you won't do I close my eyes and all that I see is you I can't escape I can't erase You, you I can't forget, it's not the same without You, you You I'm not over You, you, you You I'm not over You, you, you Stuck here I am, burning for love again I'm lost somehow Cannot come out to you I medicate my mind Come iluminate my night I'm all alone, I can't face my broken heart So tell me what you wanna do Tell me what you won't do I close my eyes and all that I see is you I can't escape, I can't erase You, you I can't forget, it's not the same without you You I'm not over You, you, you You I'm not over You, you, you I'm sick of fighting this Acting like I'm okay Here I am Still wondering No, I'm not okay Here I am Still wondering I can't escape, I can't erase You, you I can't forget, it's not the same without you You I'm not over You, you, you You I'm not over You, you, you
