I don't have the words. I leave it to Si.
WHAT WILL I LEAVE
Words and music by Si Kahn
Late in the evening as light fades away In silence we gather together Searching the faces of those who are here For those who have left us forever.
Chorus: What will I leave What will I leave What will I leave behind When I am gone Who'll carry on What will I leave behind.
Where are the ones who caught flame in the night Fired up by the heat of devotion Measuring their lives by the light of the truth They burned like a lamp on the ocean.
Who will remember the words of the brave That lifted us higher and higher Who will remember the price that they paid For lives lived too close to the fire.
Hearts of the ones who inherit your lives Will rest in the truth you have spoken Memory will echo the trust that you kept Like you it will never be broken.
