lyrics

LEGACY OF THE LIONHEART

I am the legacy of the lionheart
Of a brave man and his battle scars
For I hold a tale that will pierce the heart
I am the legacy of the lionheart

With a stout heart and a bold campaign
He faced the beasts in the lion's den
And thus alone he earned his fame
Oh lionheart I proclaim your name

Lionheart oh lionheart
Your bravery has touched my heart
Now I hold deep within my heart
The legacy of the lionheart

Alone he created such majesty
Which alone I could hear and alone I could see
He fought his cause so gallantly
A calm in the midst of an angry sea

Lionheart oh lionheart
What they did to you still breaks my heart
But I stayed true to my lionheart
And wept for my lionheart

Now I stand alone to revere his name
For I know my phoenix will rise again
Lionheart your deeds were not in vain
Through me your name and legend will remain

For I gave my heart to the lionheart
Though legends fade and glories depart
And I will treasure with all my heart
The legacy of the lionheart

(Gary Miller)
