LEGENDS
THE LEGENDHUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF YEARS AGO
HUNDREDS OF LEGENDS WE KNOW
PEOPLE WITH SMALL INTEREST
PEOPLE WITH SMALL DREAMS
MANY, MANY YEARS AGO
MEN WOULD LAY A JACKET TO THE GROUND
JUST TO LET A LADY CROSS THE STREET
AND NOT GET HER PRETTY FEET WET
SO THE TOWNS PEOPLE WOULD NOTICE
AND HAVE THEIR OWN LEGEND
TIME HAS CONSUMED MOST LEGENDS
WHICH SEEM VERY HARD TO FIND
SOME LEGENDS TODAY ARE THOSE
WITH MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
YET NOT THE TYPE OF LEGEND IN OUR MINDS
WHERE ARE THE LEGENDS WE NEED
THE ONES WITH NO SENSE OF GREED
HISTORY HAS CREATED AN EXTREME POWER
A POWER BEYOND OUR CONTROL
A POWER FOR A LEGEND
NOT A PERSON WITHOUT ANY SOUL
SOMEONE LIKE YOU OR I
SOMEONE WHO’LL STOP THE CRYING
TODAY I REALIZE ONLY ONE LEGEND
SOMEONE WHO REALY CARES
THIS IS NOT A MYTH
BUT, FROM WORDS HE BARES
HE IS JEHOVAH
HE, WHO NEVER TELLS ANY LIE’S
THE LEGEND
