We say a lifetime seems so long,
But before you know it the years havee gone,
We can't relive one single day
Of what we do, or what we say.
And good intentions can be just talk,
With ev'ry choice a path is walked,
One day we'll turn and look behind
To see that in the sands of time

chorus:
We're leavin' footprints,
We're leavin' footpinrts.
With ev'ry step all that'll be left
Will be our footprints.
And someone will follow them you know,
We're leavin' footprints wherever we go.

We'll sit and think when we're alone,
Of all the faces that we've known,
Our children sleep with a goodnight kiss
But not a thing we've done have they ever missed.
Here I know, inside I know,
When all is quiet and the lights are low,
I still have so much to learn,
The weeks go by, the pages turn,

(chorus)

I wake up in middle of the night,
Prayin', "O Lord, help me to do what is right."
To know God's love,
And walk in His light, to be an example,
I hope that I might.

(chorus)

Footprints, we're leavin' footprints.
Wherever we go, whoever we know,
We're leavin' footprints.
Footprints, we're leavin' foorprints.
Wherever we go, whoever we know,
We're leavin' footprints.
