Gone Too Soon

Like a comet
Blazing 'cross the evening sky
Gone Too Soon

Like a rainbow
Fading in the twinkling of an eye
Gone Too Soon

Shiny and sparkly
Spendidly bright
Here one day
Gone one night

Like the loss of sunlight
On a cloudy afternoon
Gone Too Soon

Like a castle
Built upon a sandy beach
Gone Too Soon

Like a perfect love
That is just beyond your reach
Gone Too Soon

Born to amuse,
To admire
And delight
Here one day
Gone one night

Like the sunset,
Dying with the rising of the moon
Gone Too Soon

Gone Too Soon

Gone Too Soon
