slide show tribute of Princess Diana. Candle In the Wind was originally written for Marilyn Monroe after her death, but was re-written for The Princess of Wales after her car accident in '97.

*i've removed a stanza toward the end of this song in the editing process for pacing purposes in case you're wondering why it's missing.



LYRICS:

Goodbye England's rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed yourselves
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've 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 englands greenest hills
Your candles burned out long before
Your legend ever will

Loveliness weve lost
Those empty days without your smile
This torch we'll always carry
For our nations golden child
And even though we tried
The truth brings us to tears
All our words cannot express
The joy you've brought us through the years

Goodbye England's rose
May you ever grow in our hearts
You were the grace that placed yourselves
Where lives were torn apart
Goodbye England's rose
From the country lost without your soul
We'll miss the wings of your compassion
More than you will ever know

And it seems to me you've 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 candles burned out long before
Your legend ever will
