You're a memory of love I've been unable to leave behind
As the hurt that don't ease up the way I hoped it would given time
It slowly been so long, I'm not surprised to find
That you're a legend in my mind

You're a picture of yesterday and a shadow that hides the sun
Lonely words that still echo when the echo should be gone
You're the livin' part of me, the only part death leaves behind
And you're a legend in my mind

If I had a way to close every door that you ever opened wide
And I walked through with you
I could put the world on my back
And carry it away and never turn back to you

I wished that I could close my eyes and see you gone
I'm not blind, I'm not blind
And you're a legend in my mind

I wished that I could close my eyes and see you gone
I'm not blind, no, I'm not blind
And you're a legend in my mind
