Most good people don't die young; witness, for example, Mother Theresa or the biblical Noah.
As a culture, we tend to remember those who have, in part for the unfulfilled potential that is a consequence of a premature death. Nobody likes to be reminded that death rarely announces its presence beforehand, and that for any of us (no matter how young we are) it could be one heartbeat away.
There's also the related idea that a young person is less likely to have done evil, for the simple reason that a shortened lifespan leaves one with less time to have done anything significant or substantial.

What does 'Only the good die young' mean?
It means that if you haven't lived your life fast paced and done some crazy things, then you haven't lived life to its fullest. Dying young in this notation would imply not dying young of age, but young in experience. Young is used as a metaphor. It is to say, in essence, that if you live safely and don't get around you won't know what life is about.
