Lyrics

The Legacy I Leave

From the moment of my birth
I've tried everything for all it's worth
And love's the only thing on earth
That moved me heart and soul

So I'm workin' hard to leave behind
The greatest gift to all mankind
To family and ties that bind
And I pray they come to know

Time it waits for no one
So here's to all that will receive
I'm gonna give all the love a man can give
This will be The Legacy I Leave

Some things we keep and some we lose
Sometimes it's not ours to choose
Like this love I have for you
Sweet as cherry wine

Fortune, fame and dollar bills
Can catch our eyes and tempt our wills
Daring us to drink our fill
But we all come to find...that

(CHORUS)

Rainbows come and rainbows fade
Oh the fortunes that I never made
The best-laid plans that got mislaid
Down this road of life

When I've reached the days of last sunsets
I'll be looking back with no regrets
To memories made and not made yet
With my children and my wife

(CHORUS)
