You were something
I was not
You were cool, you were hot
You had talent, you had style
And you had a killer smile!
Mercurial, impolite, a giant, a rebel
A work in progress, an unpolished pebble
A dreamer, a charmer, a restless soul
How much we loved you, you'll never know
You were gone before you had the chance
To prove your worth, to dance the dance
Yes, you were something, everything
Still, time has not erased the sting
The years crawled by
We lived, we cried (some committed suicide)
And I was something you were not
I was 25
I was not
You were cool, you were hot
You had talent, you had style
And you had a killer smile!
Mercurial, impolite, a giant, a rebel
A work in progress, an unpolished pebble
A dreamer, a charmer, a restless soul
How much we loved you, you'll never know
You were gone before you had the chance
To prove your worth, to dance the dance
Yes, you were something, everything
Still, time has not erased the sting
The years crawled by
We lived, we cried (some committed suicide)
And I was something you were not
I was 25
