Candle In The Wind (Goodbye Englands Rose version)
By Elton John
[02:41][00:08]Goodbye Englands rose;
[02:43][00:11]may you ever grow in our hearts.
[02:47][00:14]You were the grace that placed itself
[02:51][00:18]where lives were torn apart.
[00:23]You called out to our country,
[00:27]and you whispered to those in pain.
[00:31]Now you belong to heaven,
[00:34]and the stars spell out your name.
[03:12][01:56][00:40]And it seems to me you lived your life
[03:16][02:00][00:44]like a candle in the wind:
[03:20][02:03][00:48]never fading with the sunset
[03:23][02:07][00:51]when the rain set in.
[03:27][02:11][00:55]And your footsteps will always fall here,
[03:31][02:15][00:59]along Englands greenest hills;
[03:36][02:19][01:03]your candles burned out long before
[03:41][02:24][01:08]your legend ever will.
[01:24]Loveliness weve lost;
[01:28]these empty days without your smile.
[01:31]This torch well always carry
[01:34]for our nations golden child.
[01:39]And even though we try,
[01:44]the truth brings us to tears;
[01:46]all our words cannot express
[01:50]the joy you brought us through the years.
[02:57]Goodbye Englands rose,
[02:59]from a country lost without your soul,
[03:03]wholl miss the wings of your compassion
[03:06]more than youll ever know.
