Candle in the Wind 歌詞
Candle in the Wind - Howard Duncan
Goodbye norma jeane
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 set you on the treadmill
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
Inand I would have liked to
Have known you
I was just a 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 pain was the price you paid
Even when you died
Oh the press still hounded you
All the papers had to
Say
Was that marilyn
Was found in the nude
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 liked to
Known you
I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long
Before
Your legend ever did you
Goodbye norma jeane
Though I never
Knew you at all
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled
Goodbye norma jeane
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something more than sexual
More than just our
Marilyn monroe
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
Known you
I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long
Before
Your legend ever did you
I would have liked to have known you
I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did you
