Candle In The Wind Meaning
| [[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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’ve liked to know you But I was just a kid Your candle burned out long before Your legend ever did [Verse 2] 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 , [Chorus] 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’ve liked to know you But I was just a kid Your candle burned out long before Your legend ever did [Verse 3] 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 twenty-second row Who sees you as something more than sexual More than just our Marilyn Monroe [Chorus] 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’ve liked to know you But I was just a kid Your candle burned out long before Your legend ever did , [Outro] Your candle burned out long before Your legend ever did] |
