Legacy

Lyrics

Does it get lonely in the day
 All by yourself in this big old place
 Do you ever come out and play
 Scream out loud or walk the stage
 And maybe you are looking down tonight
 Maybe you can see
 Burning like an old spotlight
 Shining down on me
 Oh it must be great
 To have this enormous estate
 Rebecca, do you think it's fate
 That brought me here onto your stage
 And you always played it by heart
 Like a patron saint, a patron of the arts
 Was it ever hard to justify it
 To someone else, or to yourself
 Rebecca, I know you understand
 Why I write these songs
 Rebecca, I overheard the plan
 But I don't know what happens when you're gone
 And whether I write three chords
 Or a symphony
 At least I'm gonna try to leave behind
 Some kind of legacy
 So Rebecca, if you're looking down tonight
 Then maybe you can see
 Burning like an old spot light
 This legacy left behind
 And maybe you are looking down tonight
 Maybe you can see
 Burning like an old spotlight
 Shining down, on me
