Maker's Mark Songtext
von Anne Wilson

I used to want my name in lights
I was driven by the drive
Not knowing where the lonely road was leading
More money in the bank account
To buy things I could brag about
Didn′t like the mark that these old boots were leaving
So I'm getting on a better path, and as for my next half

I′ll do my best, hope it's enough
To leave a legacy of loving people
Like the One who built this heart (who built this heart)
Be a welcome sign, be an open door
I want to be remembered for
The times I was the light in someone's dark (in someone′s dark)

I hope my rights outweigh my wrongs
Hope I get back that time I lost
Even though I got a later start (ooh)
And long after I′m dead and gone
I hope I'm looking down upon
A million times I left my Maker′s mark


I want to leave a long trail behind that
Full of Jesus, full of kindness
Try to be the change I won't see (change I won′t see), whoa
I want to plant that kind of seed that lives long after me

Oh-oh, I'll do my best hope it′s enough
To leave a legacy of loving people
Like the One who built this heart (who built this heart)
Be a welcome sign, be an open door
I want to be remembered for
The times I was the light in someone's dark
(Wanna be a light in the dark)

Yeah, I hope my rights outweigh my wrongs
Hope I get back that time I lost
Even though I got a later start (yeah, yeah)
Long after I'm dead and gone
I hope I′m looking down upon
A million times I left my Maker′s mark

Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh (I wanna leave my Maker's mark)
Whoa-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh (oh-oh-oh)


Yeah, I hope my rights outweigh my wrongs
Hope I get back that time I lost
Even though I got a later start (oh, got a later start)
And long after I′m dead and gone
I hope I'm looking down upon
A million times I left my Maker′s mark, yeah

Yeah, I just wanna leave my Maker's mark
