Underneath the wide open skies, Where the river bends and the wildflowers rise, I’ve wandered many roads, both high and low, Through the laughter and the heartaches, I’ve come to know. Wherever you go, leave only footprints, In the soft, warm earth where your heart's been, Take only memories, let the moments stay, In the stories of love that won’t fade away. I’ve stood by the fire, watched the embers glow, Shared my dreams with the stars in the night’s gentle flow, Every mile that I've traveled, every tear that I've cried, Is a chapter in this book where my spirit resides. Wherever you go, leave only footprints, In the soft, warm earth where your heart's been, Take only memories, let the moments stay, In the stories of love that won’t fade away. Through the seasons of life, we gather the days, Like leaves on the wind, they dance in a blaze, But the love that we give, and the joy that we share, Will linger like the scent of sweet summer air. So when the sun sets low on this winding road, And the shadows of twilight begin to unfold, I’ll remember the laughter, the love that we made, In the footprints we left, where our hearts once played. Wherever you go, leave only footprints, In the soft, warm earth where your heart's been, Take only memories, let the moments stay, In the stories of love that won’t fade away.
