Legend In Your Own Time Lyrics - Songs From The Trees: A Musical Memoir Collection - Carly Simon

Well I have known you 

Since you were a small boy 

And your mama used to say 

"My boy is gonna grow up and be 

Some kind of leader some day" 

 

Then you'd turn on the radio 

And sing with the singer in the band 

Your mama would say to you 

"This isn't exactly what we had planned"

But you're a legend in your own time 

A hero in the footlights 

Playin' tunes to fit your rhyme 

But a legend's only a lonely boy 

When he goes home alone. 

 

And though I know you 

Still have the heart of that small boy 

Well, you lend it out far too much 

And no one woman lovin' you 

Can ever feel that she's been really touched 

 

Then you turn on the radio 

And sing with the singer in the band 

Think kind of sadly to yourself 

This isn't exactly what you had planned

But you're a legend in your own time 

A hero in the footlights 

Playin' tunes to fit your rhyme 

But a legend's only a lonely boy 

When he goes home alone 

 

Well a legend's only a lonely boy 

When he goes home alone
