He is Mr Piano Man, I am Miss Piano Man. - Elton John

In the instant that you love someone,
In the second that the hammer hits,
Reality runs up your spine,
And the pieces finally fit.

I think Jesus was a compassionate, super-intelligent gay man who understood human problems. On the cross, he forgave the people who crucified him. Jesus wanted us to be loving and forgiving. I don't know what makes people so cruel. Try being a gay woman in the Middle East — you're as good as dead.

Candle In the Wind

Author: Bernie Tauplin

Goodbye Norma Jeane.
Though I never knew you at all.
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled.
And they crawled out of the woodwork,
And they whispered into your brain,
They set you on the treadmill
And they made you change your name.

And it seems to me you lived your life
Like a candle in the wind,
Never knowing who to cling to
When the rain set in.
And I would have liked to have known you
But I was just a kid,
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever did.

Loneliness was tough.
The toughest role you ever played.
Hollywood created a superstar
And pain was the price you paid.
Even when you died
The press still hounded you-
All the paper had to say
Was that Marilyn was found in the nude.

Goodbye Norma Jeane.
Though I never knew you at all.
You had the grace to hold yourself
While those around you crawled.

Goodbye Norma Jeane.
From the young man in the 22nd row
Who sees you as something more than sexual,
More than just our Marilyn Monroe.
