[00:00.54]...
[00:45.26]Young and strong Hollywood son
[00:49.67]In the early morning light
[00:53.07]This star fell down
[00:57.82]On Sunset Boulevard
[01:02.86]Young and strong beautiful one
[01:07.61]We embraced so close
[01:10.88]Is gone
[01:12.93]Was torn away
[01:19.22]Let the youth of America mourn
[01:24.04]Include him in their prayers
[01:28.29]Let his image linger on
[01:32.95]Repeat it everywhere
[01:36.50]...
[01:45.77]With candles, with flowers
[01:54.84]He was one of ours
[02:07.27]One of ours
[02:10.84]
[02:12.99]Why don't you let him be?
[02:16.86]He's gone
[02:18.93]We know
[02:21.39]Give his mother and his father peace
[02:26.06]Your vulture's candor
[02:28.16]Your casual slander
[02:30.31]You murder his memory
[02:34.29]He's gone
[02:36.40]We know
[02:39.30]It's nothing but a tragedy
[02:41.86]
[02:44.63]Lay to rest your soul and body
[02:48.18]Lay beside your name
[02:53.36]Lay to rest your rage
[02:55.77]Your hunger and amazing grace
[02:59.97]...
[03:10.00]With candles, with flowers
[03:18.47]You were one of ours
[03:31.94]One of ours
[03:33.18]
[03:36.52]I saw cameras expose your life
[03:45.25]I heard rumors explode with lies
[03:53.90]I saw children in tears
[03:59.02]Cry and crowd around the sight
[04:05.20]Of where you had collapsed that day
[04:11.40]Where your last breath and word
[04:15.96]Had been sighed
[04:20.54]Where your heart had burst
[04:24.40]Where you had died
[04:30.13]Where you had died
[04:34.46]Where you had died
[04:38.79]I saw how they were lost in grieving
[04:41.35]All half believing you were gone
[04:48.02]The loss and pain of it
[04:50.48]Crime and shame of it
[04:52.98]You were gone
[04:56.44]It was such a nightmare raving,
[04:59.44]"how could we save him from himself?"
[05:05.17]I saw how they were lost in grieving
[05:08.05]All half believing you were gone
[05:14.37]The loss and pain of it
[05:17.00]Crime and shame of it
[05:19.30]You were gone
[05:20.96]...
