I heard that you were dead, dead before you hit the ground. I heard that you were taken, and your body was never found. I heard that you were blistered by the suns burning rays I know that somethings wrong you've not been round for days I heard a vicious rumour that you'd gone and lost you head. someone said that your brain was sick some said that it was dead You've always been so fragile brittle to the touch and though i never knew ya I miss you oh so much I heard that you were dead dead before you hit the floor It came as no surprise to me you've done this kind of thing before It was over in a moment you passed without a sound Know that you were shackled but know you are unbound I heard that you were dead dead before you hit the ground chorus: I never said goodbye and now i'm left to think about why why you left me on the line I called you up but no reply I heard that you were dead dead before you hit the ground chorus2: I never said goodbye and now i'm left to think about why why i should've let you know I've never seen an angel fly so low (repeat)
