Matthew jay you're always going too soon lyrics

It's been a long time since we hung around together in the street

And I miss those days, when the world would wait for us

With our crowd of friends we'd sit along the pavement near your house

'Till the sun came down and we brought the stars out



When I heard it for the first time I could only stand and cry

You were just a boy, we were all so innocent

Oh we never thought this kind of thing would happen in our lives

But it broke our hearts and we won't forget no



All this time has fallen through me since you've been gone

And I wonder where you are

'Cos you've never let me know

Oh no no



You're always going too soon

I'm always left on my own



It's OK I understand, sometimes life can hold you down



I can see your face as clearly now, today, as I could then

And it doesn't fade, but the times have changed so much

I would like to tell you all about the things that we have done

And we're doing fine, but I think you know that
