Kolleen`s A Cup Of Music - 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
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

Loneliness was tough
The toughest role
you ever played Holly
wood 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 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 the young man in the
22nd row
Who sees you as something
as 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
have 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
