MY LEGACY

MY LEGACY

My legacy to you

Is what I say is true

Never will I lie

Nor intentionally make you cry

I give you my heart and all that I possess

And bathe you in love and all it's sweet caress

For you I'd lose a limb

And give up my life in a whim

But most of all I'd sell

My soul for within you dwell

And if you said goodbye

My heart it would break, wither and die

But I wouldn't hold you back nor you would I imprison

For I'd hold you tight in my memory, till I'm old, frail and wizened

For my legacy to you and I say this quite intentionally

I love you enough to let you go for I love you so unconditionally

No matter where you roam as the years now drift by

Nothing will ever change as long as the sun shines in the sky

I hope one day I'll gaze

In your eyes and touch your face

I know I do in my sleep

Within my dreams and the secrets they hold deep

Perhaps one night you'll dream of me

And one last time I'll say, I love you, this is my legacy
