Jump Little Children - Words Of Wisdom lyrics

All my father's legacy is handed down on angel wings

A bittersweet melody is now mine to sing

Every precious memory

And broken-hearted tragedy

Will walk into eternity

but not fade away

If you will go and not return

Leave me some words of wisdom

If I cannot follow anymore

I promise to teach what I have learned

If you will go and not return

How do years so far away

so suddenly evaporate?

Fortune smiles with teeth of jade

and the greediest eyes

How I long for that embrace

The strongest arms and troubled face

Smokey air and awkward grace

that made me feel safe

If you will go and not return

Leave me some words of wisdom

If I cannot follow anymore

I promise to teach what I have learned

If you will go and not return

Who was it that said to me

that heroes will live forever?

And where are the now

now that I'm standing alone?

If you will go and not return

Leave me some words of wisdom

If I cannot follow anymore

I promise to teach what I have learned

If you will go and not return

Leave me some words of wisdom

If I cannot follow where you go

I promise to teach what I have learned

If you will go and not return
