Lyrics
A LEGEND CARRIES ON, original by Tim Horne (LYRICS)
I will always remember, how we use to pick and sing
Like the song of I Saw The light, I hear your voice still ring
I never thought I'd live to see the day that you were gone
But as long as I'm still on this earth, A Legend Carries On
I will always remember, All those songs we use to play
Like your Cheating Heart, to my favorite part, of He Stopped Loving Her Today
All these songs of you, keep running through my mind, your part of my life
And as long as I'm still on this earth, Your memory never dies
Chorus:
Legends carry on Forever, and It's plain to see
Every time I hear your voice, I sing the harmony
I never thought I'd live to see the day that you were gone
But as long as i'm still on this earth, A Legend Carries On
I will always remember, the night we stood right by your side
As we sang those good ole Gospel songs, a tear fell from your eye
I can't believe I'll never see those times that were so real
But as long as i'm still on this earth, I'll show just how it feels
Chorus:
Legends carry on Forever, and It's plain to see
Every time I hear your voice, I sing the harmony
I never thought I'd live to see the day that you were gone
But as long as I'm still on this earth, A Legend Carries On
And as long as I'm still on this earth, A Legend Carries On.....
