I Was Here

I want to leave my footprints

On the sands of time

Know there was something that

And something that I left behind

When I leave this world

I'll leave no regrets

Leave something to remember

So they won't forget

I was here

I lived, I loved

I was here

I did, I've done everything that I wanted

And it was more than I thought it would be

I will leave my mark so everyone will know

I was here

I want to say I'll live each day

Until I die

And know that I had something

In somebody's life

The hearts that I have touched

Will be the proof that I leave

That I made a difference

And this world will see

I just want them to know

That I gave my all

Did my best

Brought someone to happiness

Left this world a little better

Just because

I was here
