Candle In The Wind (Live) Lyrics
The song Candle In The Wind (Live) is performed by Elton John .
Send Candle In The Wind (Live) Ringtone to your Cell
Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
They crawled out of the woodwork
And they whispered into your brain
They said you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name
It seems to me you've lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend never did
Loneliness was tough
The toughest role you ever played
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh, the press still hounded you
All that papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
It seems to me you've lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
Goodbye Norma Jean
From a young man in the twenty second row
Who sees you as something more than s*xual
More than just our Marilyn Monroe
It seems to me you've lived your life
Like a candle in the wind
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
I would have liked to have known you
Oh, but I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did
