Goodbye England's rose
may you ever grow in our hearts.
CYou were the grace that placed itself
Fwhere lives were torn apart
You called out to our country,
Fand you whispered to those in pain
CNow you belong to heaven,
and the stars spell out your name
And it seems to me
you lived your life
like a candle in the wind
Cnever fading with the sunset
Gwhen the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here,
Amamong England's greenest hills
Gyour candle's burned out long before
your legend ever will.

Loveliness we've lost
these empty days without your smile
This torch we'll always carry
for our nation's golden child.
And even though we try,
the truth brings us to tears
all our words cannot express
the joy you've brought us through the years
And it seems to me
you lived your life
like a candle in the wind
Cnever fading with the sunset
Gwhen the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here,
Amamong England's greenest hills
Gyour candle's burned out long before
your legend ever will.
Goodbye England's rose
may you ever grow in our heart
You were the grace that placed itself
where lives were torn apart
Goodbye England's rose,
from a country lost without your soul
who'll miss the wings of your compassion
more than you'll ever know
And it seems to me
you lived your life
like a candle in the wind
Cnever fading with the sunset
Gwhen the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here,
Amamong England's greenest hills
Gyour candle's burned out long before
your legend ever will.
your candle's burned out long before
your legend ever will.

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 trademill
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
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 have known you
But I was just a kid
Your candle burned out long before
your legend ever did
