Love in the Shadows

[Verse] I stood by the kitchen Knife in my hand Carrots and onions A culinary plan Your face blurred in my mind Like a summertime squall But I tripped on my words And then I lost it all [Verse 2] The soapy water glistened on your old blue car I scrubbed and I toiled Oh I meant to go far But the car turned into secrets All wrapped in despair I washed away not just dirt But the love we shared [Chorus] Stormy nights and star-crossed skies Promises tangled in whispered lies I meant to love you Forever and a day But now I chase shadows Trying to find a way [Verse 3] Bouquets in the sunshine Daisies and more I'd hand them to you But they fell to the floor Each petal a regret Tangled up in the blues Each stem a reminder of the love we’d lose [Bridge] It's not in my nature to break hearts in two I didn't mean to shatter the dream we drew Like a moth to a flame Reckless I flew I chased all the wrong stars and lost the one true [Verse 4] Sitting in the silence With echoes so loud Memories of your laughter in a gathering crowd I meant to cook To wash To cherish To mend But wound up holding ashes of what couldn't bend

[Verse] Marble steps echo time Whispers in the olive grove Gods and heroes in rhyme [Verse 2] Columns stand tall against the sky Legends etched in stone Listen to the past's sigh [Chorus] Ancient stories breathe Through Parthenon's gleam History weaves its wreath [Verse 3] Sun and shadow play On Athena's sacred ground Eternal as the day [Bridge] Past and present blend Myth and memory entwine To this wonderland we send [Chorus] Ancient stories breathe Through Parthenon's gleam History weaves its wreath

[Verse] Stretch wakes up at the break of dawn, Polishes his boots and yawns, Heads down to the store, his quiet stage, Fixing broken dreams in a tiny cage. [Verse 2] From six till three-thirty, he's the steady hand, Turning rusty metal into wedding bands, He knows each scratch, and each worn scar, Dreaming of his girls, but they're so far. [Chorus] All he wants is to be at home, Where love and laughter freely roam, With his girlfriend close and daughters three, He's a jeweler, but home's his real jewelry. [Verse 3] Through the worn glass, he sees a distant sky, Calendar pages marking days gone by, Customer smiles can't fill that hole, Longing for family is filling his soul. [Verse 4] His hands are deft, but his mind runs wild, Thinking of bedtime stories and his girls' sweet smiles, Counting down the minutes till he can leave, Rubbish rings and lonely days, a heart to grieve. [Chorus] All he wants is to be at home, Where love and laughter freely roam, With his girlfriend close and daughters three, He's a jeweler, but home's his real jewelry.

[Verse] In the morning mist We set our sail With the jolly sun rise bright Ne’er weak nor pale Twin lanterns gleamed In the captain's eyes We were bound to chart 'neath the endless skies [Chorus] Yo ho ho The jolly rancher crew With hearts of gold and skies so blue From port to port We rove and roam The seven seas Forever our home [Verse 2] With a trusty map and compass sure Our ship The Lollipop Of this we were secure Through waves we cut And tides unknown We made our way Where trade winds blown [Chorus] Yo ho ho The jolly rancher crew With hearts of gold and skies so blue From port to port We rove and roam The seven seas Forever our home [Bridge] We'd holler tales ‘round barrels stout Of candies sweet And treason about Of sugar spoils we plunder far We dreamed of lands where sweets did spar [Verse 3] With pirate flags a-fluttering high We spied the land where mountains lie Nary a storm nor tempest's might Could sway our path Nor dim our light

Verse 1: On a rainy day in this old town, The clouds are heavy, the sky’s turned brown, I sit alone by the window pane, Watching memories fall with the rain. Chorus: Rainy day sorrows, they come and go, Like the rivers that rise and overflow, But I’ll hold on, through the stormy night, 'Cause I know someday, I’ll see the light. Verse 2: The radio plays a lonesome tune, As I think of you and the love we knew, Your laughter echoes in the thunder’s roar, But you’re not here, not anymore. Chorus: Rainy day sorrows, they come and go, Like the rivers that rise and overflow, But I’ll hold on, through the stormy night, 'Cause I know someday, I’ll see the light. Verse 3: The rain will stop, the sun will shine, And I’ll find peace in this heart of mine, Though the pain is deep, and the nights are long, I’ll keep on singing this old country song. Bridge: In the quiet moments, when the rain subsides, I feel your presence, right by my side, Though you’re gone, your memory stays, Guiding me through these rainy days. Verse 4: The tears I’ve cried could fill a sea, Each drop a whisper of what used to be, The storm inside me rages on, In this empty house where you belong. Chorus: Rainy day sorrows, they come and go, Like the rivers that rise and overflow, But I’ll hold on, through the stormy night, 'Cause I know someday, I’ll see the light. Outro: As the rain fades and the night turns gray, I’ll keep your memory, come what may, In every drop, in every sigh, Your love remains, it won’t say goodbye.

[Verse] Il était une fois un garçon sauvage Vivant dans un monde étrange Toujours seul il errait Sous le ciel et les étoiles [Verse 2] Il parlait d'amour et de ce qu'il croyait De la montagne à la vallée Avec un cœur si pur et ouvert Il partageait son secret [Chorus] L'essentiel que tu apprends C'est d'aimer et d'être aimé en retour C'est la leçon que tu comprends Dans ce monde oui dans ce monde [Verse] Il a traversé des forêts sombres Cherchant la lumière du jour Avec des rêves en mémoire Dans ce voyage d'amour [Bridge] Entends le vent qui murmure Les secrets de la nature La vie est une aventure Que tu dois saisir oui maintenant [Chorus] L'essentiel que tu apprends C'est d'aimer et d'être aimé en retour C'est la leçon que tu comprends Dans ce monde oui dans ce monde

Verse 1: Driving down these old dirt roads, Dust flying high where the wildflowers grow, Radio's playing our favorite tunes, Underneath the southern moon. Pre-Chorus: We laughed, we loved, we lived so free, In those days, just you and me. Chorus: Backroads and memories, Whispered dreams under the trees, Every mile a story to tell, In that small town we knew so well. Backroads and memories, Echoes of you and me, In my heart, you'll always be, Part of these backroads and memories. Verse 2: Summer nights and fireflies, Holding hands, never saying goodbye, That old barn where we shared our first kiss, Moments like this, I still miss. Pre-Chorus: We laughed, we loved, we lived so free, In those days, just you and me. Chorus: Backroads and memories, Whispered dreams under the trees, Every mile a story to tell, In that small town we knew so well. Backroads and memories, Echoes of you and me, In my heart, you'll always be, Part of these backroads and memories. Bridge: Time moves on, but the past remains, In the rustling leaves and the summer rains, I'll keep you here, in this heart of mine, Forever young, in those simple times. Chorus: Backroads and memories, Whispered dreams under the trees, Every mile a story to tell, In that small town we knew so well. Backroads and memories, Echoes of you and me, In my heart, you'll always be, Part of these backroads and memories. Outro: Driving down these old dirt roads, Dust flying high where the wildflowers grow, Though you're gone, I still see, Our love in these backroads and memories.

[Verse 1] Well, I was born in a small town, rooted deep in Tennessee, Underneath the beaten skies, where the honeysuckle's free. But there's a part of me that’s always dreamin’ big and far, So I hitched my wagon to a shooting star. [Verse 2] I remember sittin' on the front porch, guitar in my hands, Strumming dreams of moonlight and vast astral lands. A simple country boy with a pocketful of tunes, I never thought someday I'd be howlin' at the moon. [Chorus] From the red clay roads to that silvery sea, A cowboy's journey, defying gravity. With my boots on the ground and my heart in the sky, Chasing moonbeams under the Tennessee night. [Verse 3] Mama cried when I left, but she understood, A dreamer's heart won’t idle, it’s born to see the good. I waved goodbye to fields of corn and old oak trees, Traded them for lunar rocks and zero gravity. [Verse 4] Folks back home gather 'round the radio, Listening to a broadcast, seeing how it goes. Little Johnny from the farm, now an astronaut, Bringing small-town wonder to places never thought. [Chorus] From the red clay roads to that silvery sea, A cowboy's journey, defying gravity. With my boots on the ground and my heart in the sky, Chasing moonbeams under the Tennessee night.

[Verse] In the heart of Karakoram's embrace Where snow-capped peaks touch the sky's face Lies a jewel so pure in time's own space Hunza's beauty leaves a trace [Chorus] Hunza echo hear it call Through the valley where the rivers fall Whispers in the mountain hall Hunza's echo takes us all [Verse 2] Fields of green and crystal streams A place where peace fulfills our dreams Silent nights and days serene Hunza in my heart it gleams [Chorus] Hunza echo hear it call Through the valley where the rivers fall Whispers in the mountain hall Hunza's echo takes us all [Bridge] In the valleys deep and wide Glaciers ancient side by side In Hunza's arms we all confide Nature's secrets long and wide [Chorus] Hunza echo hear it call Through the valley where the rivers fall Whispers in the mountain hall Hunza's echo takes us all

(Verse 1) I've walked the rugged path, seen both joy and strife, Across continents and oceans, I've roamed in life. Met countless souls, each with their unique story, Now I stand alone, no kin, no territory. **(Chorus)** I made my choices, forged my own way, Through storms and sunshine, night and day. No regrets, no tears, just memories to hold, A life well-lived, even when the nights were cold. (Verse 2) The road was rough, but I wore my scars with pride, Fought battles within, and sometimes outside. No riches, no fame, just the wind's whispered voice, Guiding me forward, leaving behind my choice. **(Chorus)** I made my choices, forged my own way, Through storms and sunshine, night and day. No regrets, no tears, just memories to hold, A life well-lived, even when the nights were cold. (Bridge) Now the twilight settles, shadows grow long, No friends, no kin—just the echoes of my song. The streets await, a harsh and bitter bed, Yet I'll face it bravely, for my choices led. **(Chorus)** I made my choices, forged my own way, Through storms and sunshine, night and day. No regrets, no tears, just memories to hold, A life well-lived, even when the nights were cold.
