Verse 1:
I walked out the door
Feeling frustrated from inside
Took a step back into, the past
Did I leave anything behind?

Verse 2:
I thought back on life, and what my daddy
Used to, say to me
And then I heard a silent whisper and,
My daddy said to me

Chorus:
It’s not what you have, but what you leave behind
A legacy of compassion, hope and love and memories of all time
Now, just remember what I am saying to you, and
One day you’ll understand, that
It’s not what you have, but what you leave behind

Verse 3:
And then my daddy said to me,
Help others as they’ve helped you,
Live your life and your dreams that you, always wanted to pursue
Put the past behind you and, start fresh and new

Spoken words: And always remember
It’s not what you have, but what you leave behind

Chorus:
It’s not what you have, but what you leave behind
A legacy of compassion, hope and love and memories of all time
Now, just remember what I am saying to you, and
One Day you’ll understand, that
It’s not what you have, but what you leave behind

Verse 4:
Just remember what I am saying to you, and
One Day you’ll understand, that
It’s not what you have, but what you leave behind
No, it’s not what you have, but what you leave behind

Coda:
It’s what you leave behind…….FADE OUT…
