All my father's legacy is handed down on angel wings
|
A bittersweet melody is now mine to sing
|
Every precious memory
|
And broken-hearted tragedy
|
Will walk into eternity
|
but not fade away
|
|
If you will go and not return
|
Leave me some words of wisdom
|
If I cannot follow anymore
|
I promise to teach what I have learned
|
If you will go and not return
|
|
How do years so far away
|
so suddenly evaporate?
|
Fortune smiles with teeth of jade
|
and the greediest eyes
|
|
How I long for that embrace
|
The strongest arms and troubled face
|
Smokey air and awkward grace
|
that made me feel safe
|
|
If you will go and not return
|
Leave me some words of wisdom
|
If I cannot follow anymore
|
I promise to teach what I have learned
|
If you will go and not return
|
|
Who was it that said to me
|
that heroes will live forever?
|
And where are they now
|
now that I'm standing alone?
|
|
If you will go and not return
|
Leave me some words of wisdom
|
If I cannot follow anymore
|
I promise to teach what I have learned
|
If you will go and not return
|
Leave me some words of wisdom
|
If I cannot follow where you go
|
I promise to teach what I have learned
|
If you will go and not return
|
