Favorites Die

The moment I saw it, I knew why I was alive
And I still remember how long I was waiting outside
And it breaks my heart inside
To watch all my favorites die
But I’ll still keep them all alive,
We’re singing your songs 'til we die
Why, oh, why, do all my favorites die?
Thinking back to when I heard you singing, «Please don’t leave»
I remember seeing you sing, «Gonna get ready»
I just hope that I can give them all what you gave me
If it wasn’t for you, I don’t know…
Tired of watching these money men push it aside
Yeah, it’s funny to think of how much we are really alike
I see that we’re in the same boat,
Floating through all the mirrors and smoke
The smoke has been stinging my eyes,
And hiding what I shouldn’t find
Why, oh, why, do all my favorites die?
Thinking back to when I heard you singing, «Please don’t leave»
I remember seeing you sing, «Gonna get ready»
I just hope that I can give them all what you gave me
If it wasn’t for you, I don’t know…
Why, oh, why, do all my favorites die?
Thinking back to when I heard you singing, «Please don’t leave»
I remember seeing you sing, «Gonna get ready»
I just hope that I can give them all what you gave me
If it wasn’t for you, I don’t know…
