Lyrics

When you lose someone so young
How do you start again?
You can't run and hide from the world outside
And you lock yourself in, wonder where to begin
It multiplies the pain

When you lose someone so young
How do you start again?
As time goes by and tears run dry
And hope appears in place of fears
It takes away the pain

You must walk right out in the sunshine
Gotta try not to hide in the shade
Shake yourself loose from the chip on your shoulder
And forget the price you paid
I said "put your grief behind you
All the sad songs have been sung"
Yes, I know how it feels, it just don't seem real
When you lose someone so young

When you lose someone so young
How do you start again?
You need friends at hand who can understand
If you start to cry, they'll wipe the tears from your eye
Will you ever be the same?
When you lose someone so young
How do you start again?
Start life anew, stop feeling blue
The world's standing still because it knows
That you will forget your tears and pain

You must walk right out in the sunshine
Gotta try not to hide in the shade
Shake yourself, loose from the chip on your shoulder
And forget the price you paid
I said "put your grief behind you
All the sad songs have been sung"
Well, I know how it feels, it just don't seem real
When you lose someone so young

You must walk right out in the sunshine
Gotta try not to hide in the shade
Shake yourself loose from the chip on your shoulder
And forget the price you paid
I said "put your grief behind you
All the sad songs have been sung"
Yes, I know how it feels, it just don't seem real
When you lose someone so young

Put your grief behind you
All the sad songs have been sung
Well, I know how it feels, it just don't seem real
When you lose someone so young
