# Candle In The Wind (Text)
Author: Axna

_(Skriven Elton John. Det är texten som han skrev till Prinsessan Dianas begravning.)_

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

Såg begravningen och jag har den vita kransen med texten mom framför mig än idag. Tyckte prins Charles var lite kall mot sönerna. Denna fina vackra kvinna som england än idag sörjer.
