Elton John - Candle In The Wind - Original Elton John - Candle In The Wind - Original | *** Autor textu: Elton John *** Autor hudby: Elton John | 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.
And they made you change your name.
And it seems to me you 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 kid.
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did.
Loneliness was tough,
The toughest role you ever played.
Hollywood created a superstar
And the pain was the price you paid.
Even when you died
The press still hounded you.
All the papers had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude.
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 the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something more than sexual,
More than just our Marilyn Monroe.
