Lyrics - Candle In The Wind '97 by Elton John

Goodbye
England`s rose ;may you ever grow in our hearts .
You were the grace that placed itselfwhere lifes were torn apart .
You called out to your contry ,and you whispered to those in pain .
Now you belong to heaven ,and the stars spell out your name .
And it seems to me you lifed your life like a candle in the wind
Never fading with the sunset when the rain set in
And your footsteps will always fall here
Along
Englands greenest hills ;
Your candle`s burnt out long before ,your legend ever will .
Loveliness we`ve lost these empty days without your smile .
This torch we`ll always carry for our
Nation`s golden child .
And even though we try , the truth brings us to tears ;
All our tears cannot express
The joy brought us through the years
REFRAINGoodbye
England`s rose
From the country lost without your soul who`ll miss the wingsof your compassion
More than you`ll ever know .
