Candle In The Wind by Kate Bush


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 set you on a 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 in

And I would have liked to have known you

But I was just a kid

The 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

Well I would have liked to have known you

But I was just a kid

The candle burned out long before

Your legend ever did

 

Goodbye Norma Jean

Though I never knew you at all

Goodbye Norma Jean

From the young man in the 22nd row

Who sees you as something as more than sexual

More than just 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

Well I would have liked to have known you

But I was just a kid

The candle burned out long before

Your legend ever did

 

Goodbye Norma Jean

Goodbye Norma Jean

Goodbye

Goodbye Norma Jean
