Lyrics A Legacy - Marillion

A Legacy

When I leave you
I will leave you
Things that might not help you
Things that might
Problems that I never solved
Dreams to keep you up at night
As I leave you
I will leave you
Things that stick for ever
Things that slide
Mysteries I swallowed whole
Happiness I couldn’t share (I will leave you)
Promises I never kept (I will leave you)
Stories that I never told
Principles betrayed or sold
Love I tried to spread too wide (I will leave you)
Muscles you can grow in hate (I will leave you)
Summer darkness
Winter light
Young mans shame and
Old mans pride
When I leave you
I will hate to leave you
That’s the heat that grows
With growing old
So never let me leave you
Never let me leave you
Cold
