"A Legend In Its Own Time" lyrics

Ah oh
Mmhmm
Mmhmm

In the past, there have been
Many loves, many men
Have written about, oh yeah
(Have written about, have written about) Oh

But by the time those loves were recognised
By the time somebody realised
Most of them had gone and faded on

But this love that I'm pledgin'
Will surely be a legend in its own time
Be a legend in its own time
Ah oh
Lord, have mercy

If a thousand years from now
They know of our love somehow
What do we care, I wanna know

Well, we've got to do our best, right here today
To make everybody come right out and say
This love that we share
Is a love beyond compare

Yes, this love that I'm pledgin'
Will surely be a legend in its own time
Will be a legend in its own time

Hoo, hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo
Hoo hoo hoo, baby baby, hey
Hmm hmm
Oh oh oh oh
Mmm

In your life, throughout eternity
You might as well reserve a place for me

Let it be said and heard (Said and heard)
Let's go and spread the word

Let this love that I'm pledgin'
Will surely be a legend in its own time
This love will be a legend in its own time
Wow, yeah
Ooh, baby

Oh yeah, a legend in its own time
Yeah yeah yeah, a legend in its own time
Ah
