That record she did with Peter Gabriel saved my life. That record helped me get sober. So she played a big part in my actual downfall and kind of "rebirth'" as it were. That record helped me so much. I never told her that, but it did.

Elton John

I hope you don't mind,
I hope you don't mind,
that I put into words,
how wonderful life is,
now you're in the world.

Elton John

They crawled out of the woodwork And they whispered into your brain. They set you on a treadmill And they made you change your name. And it seems to me you lived your life Like a candle in the wind.

Elton John

Goodbye Norma Jean…
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.
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid
The candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did.

Of Marilyn Monroe

Elton John

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
On England's greenest hills;
Your candle's burned out long before
Your legend ever will.

Elton John
