Meaning of the song<\/u><\/b><\/div>\n

“We kind of came up with the song around the time when a lot of great, talented, young artists or actresses or musicians were dying all over the place because of drugs and suicides and we just thought it was so sad to see that. So much talent kind of being wasted like that. That was the inspiration. And also obviously, in our families, through-out the years, we’ve lost a lot of great people and great friends, so the song is like a combination of all that. It’s a very simple song about missing someone who’s gone.”<\/b><\/i><\/p>\n

Song lyrics<\/u><\/b><\/div>\n


\nHey there now
\nWhere’d you go?
\nYou left me here
\nSo unexpected<\/center><\/p>\n

You changed my life
\nI hope you know
\nCause now I’m lost
\nSo unprotected<\/p>\n

In a blink of an eye
\nI never got to say goodbye<\/p>\n

Like a shooting star
\nFlying across the room
\nSo fast, so far
\nYou were gone too soon<\/p>\n

You are a part of me
\nAnd now I’ll never be the same
\nHere without you
\nYou were gone too soon<\/p>\n

You were always there
\nLike a shining light
\nOn my darkest days
\nYou were there to guide me
\nOh I miss you now
\nI wish you could see
\nJust how much your memory
\nWill always mean to me<\/p>\n

In a blink of an eye
\nI never got to say goodbye<\/p>\n

Like a shooting star
\nFlying across the room
\nSo fast, so far
\nYou were gone too soon<\/p>\n

You are a part of me
\nAnd now I’ll never be the same
\nHere without you
\nYou were gone too soon<\/p>\n

Shine on
\nShine on
\nOnto a better place<\/p>\n

Shine on
\nShine on
\nWe’ll never be the same<\/p>\n

Like a shooting star
\nFlying across the room
\nSo fast, so far
\nYou were gone too soon<\/p>\n

You are a part of me
\nAnd now I’ll never be the same
\nHere without you
\nYou were gone too soon<\/p>\n

Shine on
\nShine on
\nYou were gone too soon<\/p>\n

Shine on
\nShine on
\nYou were gone too soon<\/p>\n

Shine on
\nShine on
\nYou were gone too soon<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
