Like a Candle in The Wind
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
Along England's greenest hills
Your candles burned out 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 candles burned out long before
Your legend ever will
Lived your life like a candle in the wind
(Simile-Free and alive or maybe even fragile)
Your candle burned out long ago
(Metaphor- Someone died , it wasn’t an actual candle)
Goodbye England’s Rose
(Metaphor- a rose is beautiful.
Princess Diana was England’s beauty before she died.)
You were the grace that placed itself where lives were torn apart.
(Metaphor- people loved her)
Who will miss the wings of your companion
(Metaphor- not actual wings, just presence, angle or bird.)
Your candle burned out long before you legend every will
(Metaphor- it is not an actual candle. It is saying that even though she died, her memories still remain.
