Karaoké Candle in the Wind 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

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 in

I would have liked to known you but I was just a kid

Your candle burned out long before your legend ever did

Loneliness was tough 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 have liked to 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 the young man in the twenty-second 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 but I was just a kid

Your candle burned out long before

Your legend ever did

Your candle burned out long before

Your legend ever did
