The Legend of My Life
Words and Lyrics by Samantha Schultz
© 2010 Samantha Schultz SOCAN

There once was a girl
Who would get wrapped up in any romantic world
She fell in love for the first time
But let me tell you ‘bout this guy
He was all about the “me, myself and I”

After him she began a quest for a man that was just right
And all those years she swam through the tears that ran from her tired eyes
And she was black blue from all that she’d been through and was ready to give up the fight
But then she opened a door on a fateful night

And I’ve been looking in all the wrong places for the right thing
And I did it all wrong with how I went along with everything
I’m gonna take the pain from back in the day and let it lie
‘Cause you make me feel like I’m gonna be alright
Baby, you’re the legend of my life

Now he was only a friend
But we all know how stories like this end
She fell in love, but in good time
And let me tell you ‘bout this guy
He was all about treating each other right

And for him she began a love for this man that was just right
And all those years she spent with broken men seemed worth the fight
And you could hear her say how she loved the way that he loved her with all of his might
And she would thank her lucky stars for him each night

CHORUS

Yeah you’ve slayed my evil dragons and you’ve freed me from this tower
Yeah I have no doubt that you’ve gone all out and you hold me with this power
This flower of love
It’s the power of love

CHORUS

There once was a girl who was wrapped up in a lovely little world
