Candle in the wind

Goodbye
England's rose

May
you ever grow in our hearts

You
were the grace that placed itself

Where
lives were torn apart

You
called out to our country

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 lived 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
England's greenest hills

Your
candle's burned 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 words cannot express

The
joy you brought us through the years

And
it seems to me you lived 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
England's greenest hills

Your
candle's burned our long before

Your
legend ever will

Goodbye
England's rose

May
you ever grow in our hearts

You
were the grace that placed itself

Where
lives were torn apart

Goodbye
England's rose

From
a country lost without your soul

Who'll
miss the wings of your compassion

More
than you'll ever know

And
it seems to me you lived your life

Like
a candle in the wind

Never
fading with the sunset

When
the rain set in

And
you footsteps will always fall here

Along
England's greenest hills

Your
candle's burned out long before

Your
legend ever will
