歌词
Goodbye Norma Jean
Though I never knew you at all
尽管我从未与你相知，
You had the grace to hold yourself
你是这样高贵而自持，
While those around you crawled
当喧嚣将你围绕。
They crawled out of the woodwork
他们像蛀虫一样腐朽，
And they whispered into your brain
在你耳边细语，
They set you on the treadmill
让你的天才在琐碎中消耗
And they made you change your name
他们让你改名叫梦露。
And it seems to me you lived your life
而在我眼中，你的生活，
Like a candle in the wind
就像风中的蜡烛飘摇。
Never knowing who to cling to
当大雨将至，
When the rain set in
不知谁可予依靠。
And I would have liked to have known you
我本愿与你相知，
But I was just a kid
但那时我只是个孩子。
Your candle burned out long before
你的生命之火早已熄灭，
Your legend ever did
而传奇永续。
Loneliness was tough
孤独之苦，
The toughest role you ever played
生活的真实最难扮演。
Hollywood created a superstar
好莱坞造了一个超级明星，
And pain was the price you paid
苦痛是你光华的倒影。
Even when you died
即便你死了，
Oh the press still hounded you
传媒的阴影依旧笼罩，
All the papers had to say
那些报道写着：
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude
玛丽莲一丝不挂的躺在床上。
And it seems to me you lived your life
而在我看来，你的一生，
like a candle in the wind
就好像风中的烛火。
Never knowing who to cling to
当大雨将至，
When the rain set in
却无人可依。
And I would have liked to have known you
我本愿与你相知，
But I was just a kid
但那时我只是个孩子
Your candle burned out long before
你的生命之火久已熄灭
Your legend ever did
而传奇不死。

Though I never knew you at all

Goodbye Norma Jean
再见了诺玛·珍，
From the young man in the 22nd row
这是一个在看台远方的年轻人与你道别。
Who sees you as something as more than ***ual
他视你远多于一个性感符号，
More than just our Marilyn Monroe
远多于人们眼中的玛丽莲·梦露。
And it seems to me you lived your life
而在我眼中，你的生活，
like a candle in the wind
就像风中的蜡烛飘摇。
Never knowing who to cling to

But I was just a kid

Your candle burned out long before
你的生命之火久已熄灭，
Your legend ever did

Your legend ever did
而你的传奇永恒。
