Something Worth Leaving Behind Lyrics

Hey Mona Lisa, who was Leonardo?
Was he Andy Warhol?
You were Marilyn Monroe
Hey Mozart, what kind of name is Amadeus
It´s kinda like Elvis
You gotta die to be famous
I may not go down in history
I just want someone to remember me

I´ll probably never hold a brush
that paints a masterpeice
Probably never find a pen
that writes a symphony
But if I will love then I will find
That I have touched another life
And that´s something
Something worth leaving behind

Hey Midas you say you have the magic touch
That even all that shiny stuff
Someday is gonna turn to dust
Hey Jesus it must have been some Sunday morning
In a blaze of glory
We´re still tellin´ your story
I may not go down in history
I just want someone to remember me

I´ll probably never dream a dream
and watch it turn to gold
No, I´ll never lose my life
to save another soul
If I will love then I will find
That I have touched another life
And that´s something
Something worth leaving behind

Hey baby see the future that we´re building
Our love lives on in the lives of our children
And that´s something
Something worth leaving behind

I really like the story of Lee Ann's song. I haven't heard much of her music, but "Something Worth Leaving Behind" came on the radio and I just knew it was a great song.

After hearing this song, it like haunts me. Not in a bad way, but I just tend to think about what I'm doing right and wrong in my life.
