What We Leave Behind Lyrics - Singles - Jeremy And Rebecca

VERSE 1 

Once upon a time 

A dark, dreamless night 

Covered a kingdom filled with the sound of its human cry 

Then one came along 

With a different song 

And many were touched by the beautiful sound of his melody 

Then one multiplied 

And growing in size 

The song, now an anthem, had filled the land with great harmony 

Could this be said of you 

Could it be said of me 

CHORUS 

What will we leave behind 

What story will be read of our lives 

Will it be marked in the pages of time 

That the world is better 

Because of what we leave behind 

VERSE 2 

Just look around 

At where we are now 

Will posterity thank us or blame us for what we are passing on 

There's a new song to sing 

A new story to read 

Will we be the ones with courage enough 

To leave this world better than when we arrived 

CHORUS 

What will we leave behind 

What story will be read of our lives 

Will it be marked in the pages of time 

That the world is better 

Because of what we leave behind 

What story will be told of our lives 

Will it be marked in the pages of time 

That the world is better, so much better 

Because of what we leave behind 

What will we leave behind 

Life, love, and happiness 

A soul spent with no regrets 

Life, love, and happiness 

Leavin' with no regrets 

What will we leave behind (repeat)
