TOO EARLY !

I remember the day was 22,
A plane takes off in a sky so blue.
She's up there running away
Whereas I had a lot to say.
But I know this is not new
You maybe know that story too
What can I do now that she's gone ?
I'll maybe try to live alone...

After a whole year in my life,
I didn't even try
To make her be my wife
That's why I'm here to cry

Chorus:
Why did you leave so early ?
Without asking what I want to be.
Why did you leave so early ?
Tell my heart how to be free.

I'm looking back to understand,
To learn what I did wrong.
I kept myself in my own land
Close minded for one year long.
She told me I had to smile
To joke and open my soul
You see, I do it right
Since I answered to your call.

After that year being so close
I was so near to try
To tell you're the one I've chosen
That's why I'm here to cry

Chorus:
Why did you leave so early ?
Come on, come back to me.
Why did you go that early ?
I'm here, don't you see ?

When I was loosing you
I realized what you were
And I looked for what to do
To make you the one I wouldn't share.
Now, bold, strong I'll do my best,
Don't let me go insane.
Tell me it's not too late,
Because I can't bear that pain.

You're not here anymore
I feel like I'm gonna die
Here too there's a world to explore
That's why I'm here to cry

Chorus:
Why did you leave so early ?
Come on, come back to me.
Why did you go that early ?
Oh baby, please marry me
