Why'd you leave so soon?
I sit here with bitter gloom.
You always understood my fears.
Youl always stopped my pouring tears.
We'd laugh and talk and live it up
And now I wait for death to come.
I cry my shallow tears
And give voice to all new fears.

A whisper told me to stay strong,
When everything was going wrong.
I miss your touch from duck to dawn,
I'll try to keep my spirit strong,
But for just how long?
Tell me,
Why'd you leave so soon?

You knew it would come.
Too young.
Too young to die,
But somehow he took your life.
I can still see you smile,
Shine bright like a star.
A little whisper in my heart.
Why'd you leave so soon?

I wish I could have felt your ease,
When your pain seized.
To exist in such glory as yours.
I'll wait and hold my pillow tight
And kiss your shortened life goodnight.
As I cry my sacred tears.
Too many friends lost in young years.
Why'd you leave so soon?
