"The Love We Leave" lyrics

"The Love We Leave"

The love we leave may be forever
Only time can tell
Every memory's a treasure
Waiting on the shelf

A bright bouquet for rainy days
When we've got time to dream
Never know just who we touch
With the love we leave

The hand you hold in time of trouble
Never will forget
And when that hand no longer trembles
It will pay the debt

'Til every hand of every man
Is held a hundred fold
Never know just who you touch
With the hand you hold

I wish the love I leave could be forever
In my children's song
And in the sparkle of their children's laughter
Long after I'm gone

Through goodbye tears and we lived heres
That make up memories
We never know just who we touch
With the love we leave
With the love we leave
