Gone Too Soon


Remember the lovely words that Michael Jackson sang for Ryan White (December 6, 1971 – April 8, 1990) the Indiana boy who died of AIDS, back when it was still so misunderstood? Michael was a friend and advocate for Ryan, who had endured so much prejudice in his short life. What a sad time it was for the State, with all the flags flying at half - mast.

You can listen to "Gone Too Soon" on Jackson's CD, Dangerous; and also on the Diana, Princess Of Wales Tribute CD:

Like A Comet Blazing 'Cross The Evening Sky
Gone Too Soon

Like A Rainbow Fading In The Twinkling Of An Eye
Gone Too Soon

Shiny And Sparkly And Splendidly Bright
Here One Day Gone One Night

Like The Loss Of Sunlight On A Cloudy Afternoon
Gone Too Soon

Like A Castle Built Upon A Sandy Beach
Gone Too Soon

Like A Perfect Flower That Is Just Beyond Your Reach
Gone Too Soon

Born To Amuse, To Inspire, To Delight
Here One Day Gone One Night

Like A Sunset Dying With The Rising Of The Moon
Gone Too Soon
Gone Too Soon


~ music: Larry Grossman

Michael Jackson
