Elton John "Candle In The Wind 1997" lyrics

Candle In The Wind 1997

Goodbye England's roseMay you ever grow in our heartsYou were the grace that placed itselfWhere lives were torn apartYou called out to our countryAnd you whispered to those in painNow you belong to heavenAnd the stars spell out your name

And it seems to me you lived your lifeLike a candle in the windNever fading with the sunsetWhen the rain set inAnd your footsteps will always fall hereAlong England's greenest hillsYour candle's burned out long beforeYour legend never will

Loveliness we've lostThese empty days without your smileThis torch we'll always carryFor our nation's golden childAnd even though we tryThe truth brings us to tearsAll our words cannot expressThe joy you brought us through the years

And it seems to me you lived your lifeLike a candle in the windNever fading with the sunsetWhen the rain set inAnd your footsteps will always fall hereAlong England's greenest hillsYour candle's burned out long beforeYour legend never will

Goodbye England's roseMay you ever grow in our heartsYou were the grace that placed itselfWhere lives were torn apartGoodbye England's roseFrom a country lost without your soulWho'll miss the wings of your compassionMore than you'll ever know

And it seems to me you lived your lifeLike a candle in the windNever fading with the sunsetWhen the rain set inAnd you footsteps will always fall hereAlong England's greenest hillsYour candle's burned out long beforeYour legend never will
