[Verse] Some get to burn out slowly Some get to take their time The ones that shine the brightest Are the first to lose their light Some get to fly for miles And some get to dance all night The ones that burn the hottest Are the first to lose their fire [Prechorus] Ooh Ooh [Chorus] Ooh Ooh Why do the good ones Why do the good ones Why do the good ones Why do the good ones Ooh Ooh [Verse] The ones that shine the brightest Are the first to lose their light Their flames burn so intense Their stars blaze so bright I guess that's what makes them special Their colors fade And they fall into shade [Chorus] The ones that shine the brightest Are the first to lose their light The ones that shine the brightest Are the first to lose their light The ones that shine the brightest Are the first to lose their light [Verse] Some say their spark's eternal In the memories of us all Some say they watch us from the heavens Like a gentle Guiding star And when the world grows dark We look to the skies And they catch our eyes [Chorus] The ones that shine the brightest Are the first to lose their light The ones that shine the brightest Are the first to lose their light The ones that shine the brightest Are the first to lose their light
