Legacy of Love

[Verse] When the last chapter is finally told In a weathered book marred by countless tears and folds What legacy will be left for the world to behold? When they see the footprints in the sand In the countless places I once stood Will the passage of time be the only thing to fill these shoes Since no one else could? [Chorus] Well the earth and sky, they seem to have no end But this shell I wear will soon return to dust While I was here, would you have called me "friend"? Or is everything I built destined to rust? With every word I spoke With every touch I gave I hope it made it better This world I helped pave [Verse 2] The last time my name is spoken I will finally fade away But the love I've shared will hopefully stay Through the hands I've held The hearts I've embraced Maybe the mark I leave will not be erased [Chorus] Well the earth and sky, they seem to have no end But this shell I wear will soon return to dust While I was here, would you have called me "friend"? Or is everything I built destined to rust? With every word I spoke With every touch I gave I hope it made it better This world I helped pave [Verse 2] The last time my name leaves a person's lips This old soul will finally fade away But the love I've shared will surely persist Through the hands I've held The hearts I've embraced The mark I leave still may not be erased [Chorus] Well the earth and sky, they seem to have no end But this shell I wear will soon return to dust While I was here, would you have called me "friend"? Or is everything I built destined to rust? With every word I spoke With every touch I gave I hope it made it better This world I helped pave [Chorus] Well the earth and sky, they seem to have no end But this shell I wear will soon return to dust While I was here, would you have called me "friend"? Or is everything I built destined to rust? With every word I spoke With every touch I gave I hope it made it better This world I helped pave
