Story Behind The Song

Tribute to Jim Fowler. "JF"

Lyrics

Verse 1
He walked in quiet, the room stood still
Had a way of makin' folks feel seen and real
Firm handshake, a story and a smile
The kind you'd wanna sit with for a while
Built a business with his two bare hands
But he'd stop the world for a friend in a jam
Never needed credit, never chased the praise
He just showed up and gave it all away

Chorus
He was a legend, bigger than the name
A heart like thunder in a gentle rain
Strong as the oak, soft as a prayer
If you needed somethin', he was there
He led with grace, he loved with pride
He's gone, but his fire still lights our lives
Yeah, the man we lost was more than just a man
He was the kind the world won't see again
He was a legend

Verse 2
Treated every worker like a CEO
Taught 'em how to lead, and go with the flow
Could solve a problem, man was he smart
Knew every end was just a brand-new start
Sunday dinner, laughin' 'round the table
Grandkids climbin' up to sit with strong and stable
Taught 'em how to rise, how to stand up tall
How to give your word, and give your all

Chorus
He was a legend, bigger than the name
A heart like thunder in a gentle rain
Strong as the oak, soft as a prayer
If you needed somethin', he was there
He led with grace, he loved with pride
He's gone, but his fire still lights our lives
Yeah, the man we lost was more than just a man
He was the kind the world won't see again
He was a legend

Bridge
Now we raise a glass, we tip our hat
Try to live a little more like that
In every good deed and every hand we lend
That's where his story never ends

Final Chorus
He was a legend, and legends never die
They live on in the hearts they leave behind
He was the rock, he was the flame
He gave more than he ever claimed
We feel his strength in the love he gave
In every life he helped to change
Yeah, the man we lost was more than just a man
He was the kind the world won't see again
He was a legend
