Gone Too Soon

[Instrumental intro] Deh dee dee, deh deh, deh dee dee Doo ooo doo doo doo Deh dee dee, deh deh, deh dee dee Doo ooo doo doo doo [Chorus] Even in your simplest moments you were meant to shine [Verse 1] the dust you weave in the air like ghosts from a cloud above Pittering pattern slathering light to the figures below that show no remorse of the passage of time [Chorus] Even in your simplest moments you were meant to shine Even in your simplest moments you were meant to shine [Verse 2] All the other vultures stung All the other creatures ring out their naked intentions of limestone resolve So the dance begins and ends when the shore line reveals the cost. [Bridge] The night knows no mercy when it reveals your eyes The night knows no fealty to the power you think you're hiding The night knows it all And you will submit even unwillingly [Chorus] Even in your simplest moments you were meant to shine Even in your simplest moments you were meant to shine All there's left to say Even in your simplest moments you were meant to shine Even in your simplest moments you were meant to shine Even in your simplest moments you were meant to shine All there's left to say Even in your simplest moments you were meant to shine my friend my lover my enemy and brother Even in your simplest moments you were meant to shine my friend my lover my enemy and brother you were meant to shine my friend my lover my enemy and brother
