Legacy (Owed to Mama)



I thought I heard you whisper
Just before the daylight broke
That voice that's gone forever
Disappeared when I awoke
They say you're always with me
But I always feel alone
You were always my foundation
Now I'm building on my own
Yet, still somehow you guide me
With those lessons that you taught
Your life's shining example
Was a wealth that can't be bought
You always stopped to help a pilgrim
Never passed a soul in need
A love that shined inside you
Burned in every thought and deed
I can never fill those small shoes
I could never be so strong
Never have your special wisdom
But I'll always sing your song
I'll try to carry on your kindness
A legacy I proudly share
So your spirit lives forever
In the hearts of those who care
