Fingerprints
Five-hundred steps into a journey I wasn't ready for
down the path of twenty-something
no time to take a break, lose my way, have a day to myself
Each day I breathe and blink, sometimes blinded by brilliant skies
I'm stuck in traffic and I'm almost late
No time to hesitate on my way to my destiny
But you left your fingerprints left them on the life I live
and for the forty-millionth time I remember
Remember who I used to be and how you so lovingly
searched the deepest depths of me
yes you left your fingerprints
The morning sun shines through my window
and a new day calls my name
and though I wake up in the same room
nothing ever stays the same
Every single day I wonder
will I leave a legacy
with the same love and compassion
as the one you left for me?
'Cause you left your fingerprints
left them on the life I live
and for the forty-millionth time I remember
remember who I used to be and how you so lovingly
searched the deepest depths of me
yes you left your fingerprints...
you left your fingerprints...
