LEGENDS
The appreciation of the spotlight
The acclaim as they'd walk away
No compromise ever shown
In the things that they’d have to say.
The swagger in the walk,
The confidence in their talk;
Such are the legends of our time
The acclaim as they'd walk away
No compromise ever shown
In the things that they’d have to say.
The swagger in the walk,
The confidence in their talk;
Such are the legends of our time
Perhaps it’s the allure of their life
That captivates us so
Or the thinking that they’ll live on
Beyond 'the normal' …yes and no
Never seen as one to 'cut and run’,
‘Fact and fiction’ blurred into one;
Such are the legends of our time
That captivates us so
Or the thinking that they’ll live on
Beyond 'the normal' …yes and no
Never seen as one to 'cut and run’,
‘Fact and fiction’ blurred into one;
Such are the legends of our time
No turning up for work each day
With a lunch-box in the hand
No buses, trains, waiting
In endless traffic jams.
Yet, no re-birthing of the star,
But staying ‘exactly’ who you are;
Such are the legends of our time
With a lunch-box in the hand
No buses, trains, waiting
In endless traffic jams.
Yet, no re-birthing of the star,
But staying ‘exactly’ who you are;
Such are the legends of our time
Perhaps it’s our perception that
They always knew where they wanted to go
No hunger for second…
Just in 'being the best' …so
It’s the will, the myth, the glory,
To add to our ‘own’ life’s story;
Such are the legends of our time
No hunger for second…
Just in 'being the best' …so
It’s the will, the myth, the glory,
To add to our ‘own’ life’s story;
Such are the legends of our time
