Painted Legacy
[Verse 1]
You can't go yet
There's so much left unsaid I need to say
You don't know it
But you made me who I am today
[Pre-Chorus]
Do you remember when you had to learn to braid our hair?
It was a mess but you made the best of what was there
[Verse 2]
You can't go yet
I wanna tell you how the girls have been
And they don't know yet
I need to call them, how do I begin?
[Pre-Chorus]
What would I do to try to make them understand?
I wonder if you'd pretend you'd flown to Neverland
[Chorus]
The way you painted legacy
Brings alive my memories
Of how you spun pure gold out of the dust
I can't bare to see you go
Somewhere far where I can't follow
Oh, but I'll hold them how you held us
Close and safe and unafraid of love
And that's enough
