Elton John - Candle In The Wind (The Best Of Elton John Vol. 2)
Elton John - Candle In The Wind (The Best Of Elton John Vol. 2)
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
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.
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
All 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.
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 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.
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.

"oh heavenly dog " had another beautiful song by Elton called "song for guy." Parts of it play throughout the movie but I especialy love when it plays in the scene where Benji jumps in Jane Seymor's red convertible and they drive through the french countryside.

This album marked the beginning
of a decade long swoon for Elton as an
artist. Nowhere near the brilliance of
previous albums, he began to comeback
upon reunion with Taupin culminating with
"Songs from the West Coast", considered
by most critics (and discerning music
fans) to be his best album since Goodbye
Yellow Brick road.
