Candle In The Wind - Goodbye Norma Jean by Elton John

Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I (1)__________ knew you at all
You had the grace to uphold yourself
While those (2)____________ you crawled
They (3)______________ out of the woodwork
And they whispered into (4)________ 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 (5)__________ to
When the rain set in
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was (6)________ a kid
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend (7)________ 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 (8)____________ 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
Goodbye Norma Jean
From the young man in the twenty-second row
Who sees you as something 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
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
Goodbye Norma Jean
Goodbye
Goodbye Norma Jean
