Songtexte How Will You Be Remembered - Gloria Estefan

It happens when you least expect it
Life distracts you with its song
You lose someone that you treasure
Time is up, they close the ledger
Like a comet, light your skies, and then they're gone
Right then when we might most need them
They disappear into the sun
To their loss you are a witness
There's awareness in the stillness
That we're all forever prisoners of the clock

Thanks for watching! I'd give anything to do it all again
Knowing what can make me falter so my journey I could alter
Make the most of every chance that I might get

How will you be remembered?
This life passes in a moment
Will you be proud of what you stood for
Gave your heart and soul and lived for?
Happy with what you leave behind you?
How will you be remembered?
Will you have known a love that blinds you
Believed in something without measure
Left behind your love forever?
Deserve the praise on the horizon
Will you be remembered?

I hope one day I could do something people would appreciate
All the love that I've been giving
Is what's helped me to envision
All the things that I felt lucky to create
I'd give anything to do it all again
But my choices I can't alter
No matter how fiercely I want to
Have made the most of every chance I got back then

How will you be remembered?
This life passes in a moment
Will you be proud of what you stood for?
Gave your heart and soul to live for?
Happy with what you leave behind you
How will you be remembered?
Will you have known a love that blinds you?
Believe in something without measure
Left behind, you're not forever
Please serve the praise on the horizon
How will you be remembered?
