I'm sitting in the kitchen
Watching my grandparents talk
I say hey mams what's the secret
She says never give up
And then she tells me a story
That I'll never forget
She says they were only two weeks in
She was packing her bags
Getting ready to leave him
He asked her why the suitcase was so full
He said there is no room for my clothes
Cause baby where you go I will follow
She said today we live in a throw away world
And love is work
It won't be easy so know what it's worth
And when push comes to shove
They were building a legacy of love
And you'll leave a legacy
That my own children will know
And I hope your aware of
All the love that you've helped grow
And I just wanted to say thank you
For all the wise words that you've shared
Through all the years it became clear
That love will always be there
Now I know that we live in a throw away world
And love is hard work
It won't be easy but know what it's worth
And when push comes to shove
I hope to follow in
Your legacy of love
And to the big man up above
Thank you for building
This legacy of love
