about

From Disc 2 of Extra-Ordinary

lyrics

There’s feelings all around that I can’t explain
Just to have you near me, your friendship again
I never knew how much I’d miss you, but there must be a way
To get through the rest of the day

The times we shared together just weren’t enough
To ease the pain I feel now, I miss you so much
The laughter and the music will always be in me
I’ll think about the way you used to be

You were a natural, they’re so hard to find
A natural, so caring and kind
You gave so much so easily
Oh tell me why, tell me why, the good must always die

So now I must go on pretending each day
And always think about what others might say
You showed such sensitivity to people and their cares
Sometimes it’s much more than I can bear

You were a natural, they’re so hard to find
A natural, I’m out of my mind
You gave so much so easily
Oh tell me why, tell me why, you had to go and die
