Additional lyrics

2. Loneliness was tough, the toughest role you ever played.


Hollywood created a superstar and pain was the price you paid.
And even when you died, oh, the press still hounded you.
All the papers had to say was that Marilyn was found in the nude.

3. Goodbye, Norma Jean. Though I never knew you at all,


You had the grace to hold yourself while those around you crawled.
Goodbye, Norma Jean, from a young man in the twenty-second row,
Who sees you as something more than sexual, more than just our Marilyn Monroe.
