Personal Legend

Lyrics

My Personal Legend I ran into an old friend, Downtown yesterday We said all the same things, Old friends always say He said I heard you been happy, I said I heard life's been good And I'd keep in touch better if only I could Then we smiled when we talked about Jesse And we cried when we thought how it ended And we laughed when we saw how we'd screwed up the way That our personal legends were made My personal legend, Lives on every day In the words that I've written, And the things people say I wish that I could see, The road that's ahead As clearly as I see this life that I've led Lead Break He fired up his old car,, I got into my truck He said we could be famous, With the right kind of luck We agreed on a new name, And some new songs to play And we promised to start a new legend that day Then we smiled when we talked about Jesse And we cried when we thought how it ended And we laughed when we saw how we'd screwed up the way That our personal legends were made My personal legend, Lives on every day In these words that I've written, And those things people say I wish that I could see, The road that's ahead As clearly as I see this life that I've led
