Legacy of Legends
(c) Mark Horning 2017
Another year goes by,
Another hero fades away.
Another Living Legend,
from a brighter future day.
--When hope rose up on flaming wing
--and dreams were forged of steel
--And the men who strode the heavens
--Were very, very, real...
So we bid Godspeed, again,
and wind behind the sail
and a hope of new adventure
as they pass beyond the veil.
--To that Undiscovered Country
--from the Glory or the past,
--and a Legacy of wonder
--and a dream that couldn't last.
Another year goes by
Another memory starts to fade
A toast to all the heroes
Who fell along the way.
--Building hope on flaming wing
--And dreaming dreams of steel
--When the men who strode the heavens
--Were very, very real...
--And the Legacy of Legends
--Is very, very real.
