Gantt Chart Blues

[Verse] In the green fields of Éire, where the shamrocks grow wild, We fought for our freedom, every woman, man, and child. From Dublin to Cork, in every heart and hand, We raised the flag of freedom, took a stand. [Verse 2] By the Liffey River, where Easter blooms in spring, We proclaimed our rights, let the bells of freedom ring. Through the streets of Dublin, with courage in our veins, Michael Collins led us, through the blood and the chains. [Chorus] Oh, Éire, we've risen, our voices loud and clear, In Gaelic and in English, we cast off the fear. For every freedom fighter, who stood so bold and true, The Republic of our fathers, we reclaimed anew. [Verse 3] In the shadows of Kilmainham, where heroes met their fate, We carved our own destiny, though the price was great. And in every pub and cottage, from Sligo to Kildare, The tales of liberation hung heavy in the air. [Verse 4] From the peaks of Connor Pass, to the wild Donegal shores, Our culture and our language, they could never ignore. For each word of Irish spoken, for each song sung with pride, We honored our forefathers, who for freedom died. [Chorus] Oh, Éire, we've risen, our voices loud and clear, In Gaelic and in English, we cast off the fear. For every freedom fighter, who stood so bold and true, The Republic of our fathers, we reclaimed anew.

[Verse] City lights fade away Through the silent night Dreams of a better day In the heart of the fight [Verse 2] Desert winds whisper here Stories of old We hold memories dear Priceless and bold [Chorus] Oh homeland calling loud Underneath the same sky Raise our voices proud For the hills we cry [Verse 3] Children laugh in the lane Hope in their eyes Though there's endless pain We will rise high [Verse 4] Olive trees stand so still Roots running deep We will climb every hill Promises to keep [Chorus] Oh homeland calling loud Underneath the same sky Raise our voices proud For the hills we cry

[Verse] The bonfire blazed high on the eve of the march, With flames lickin' the sky, and the moon as a watch, The flutes played their tune, a callin' the band, As the Ulster Orange men took their stand. [Verse 2] Murals painted tales on the walls of the street, Flags fluttered high, 'neath the drum’s steady beat, In their sashes so bright, they walked with pride, Through the heart of the town, they marched side by side. [Chorus] Oh, the Orange men, with their banners so bold, In the quiet of dawn, traditions unfold, With a song in their hearts, and a step so grand, They parade through the town, united they stand. [Verse 3] The streets they were lined, with folks lookin’ on, As the marchers kept time with an age-old song, Their footsteps a’echoed on the cobblestone gray, On this bright July morn, they came to display. [Verse 4] The bonfire’s embers still glowed in the night, As the bands played on, till the first rays of light, With their flutes and their drums, they heralded the day, Proclaiming their lore in their own special way. [Chorus] Oh, the Orange men, with their banners so bold, In the quiet of dawn, traditions unfold, With a song in their hearts, and a step so grand, They parade through the town, united they stand.

[Verse] Nights from nights into dreams Whisper quiet lullabies Calming every child's cries [Verse 2] Moon above watches close Stars in their cosmic dance Guardians of a strong heart [Chorus] Sweet dreams take you far Soft whispers protect Into the night we go [Verse 3] Harp strings pluck through the air Murmurs of tender love Lullabies from above [Bridge] Dreams flow like gentle streams Waves of peace in the night Safe 'neath the moon’s glow [Chorus] Sweet dreams take you far Soft whispers protect Into the night we go

[Instrumental]

[Verse] Johanna te amé por siempre No supe cómo perderte Cada día fue un regalo Ahora solo queda el halo [Verse 2] Tus ojos eran mi cielo Tus abrazos mi consuelo Ahora el silencio duele Mi corazón se desvanece [Chorus] Adiós mi amor adiós No sé vivir sin tu voz Johanna se fue el sol En la tormenta estoy yo [Bridge] Recuerdos de noches sueños Tus besos de dulce dueño Ahora solo quedan restas En mi alma mil protestas [Verse 3] Aquellas promesas viejas Se pierden cual hojas secas Johanna mi amor eterno Hoy me abrazan los inviernos [Chorus] Adiós mi amor adiós No sé vivir sin tu voz Johanna se fue el sol En la tormenta estoy yo

[Verse] A Celia Maria Pereira da Silva Dirige uma grande Caminhoneta rosa [Verse 2] Pela cidade Ela passa sorrindo Com seu brilho Encantando todo mundo [Chorus] Caminhoneta rosa Ela brilha na estrada Caminhoneta rosa Celia é animada [Verse 3] Nas tardes de sol Ela adora viajar Pela praia Pela serra Sempre a nos alegrar [Bridge] Caminhoneta rosa Nunca vai parar Celia Celia Sempre a rodar [Chorus] Caminhoneta rosa Ela brilha na estrada Caminhoneta rosa Celia é animada

[Instrumental]

In the quiet moments left unsaid, Where your silence wraps around my heart, I search for words in the threads, Of love that pulls us close, then parts. Each trigger casts a shadow long, A chasm where our voices fade, And I stand here, feeling wronged, By the silence in the space you've made. I know your storms are not by choice, And yet they leave me feeling small, Lost in the echo of your voice, A distant whisper, barely called. When the dates we planned fall away, I’m left with ghosts of where you’d be, A lonely night, a wistful day, In the places meant for you and me. Still, I hold on to the moments sweet, When laughter lines our fragile world, Dreams of when our souls would meet, Before the tempest was unfurled. I ache for your touch, your eyes, To find me in the darkened room, To bring back light to love’s disguise, And chase away this endless gloom. So, I wait with a heart that's true, Hoping for the calm after the storm, For the love that breaks through, To make us whole, to keep us warm.

[Verse] In the quiet times when she cries Whisper words to soothe those sighs [Verse 2] Every tear that falls I am near Show her love and take her fear [Chorus] When the world feels cold and the light won’t show Hold her close don’t let her go I’m the warmth she needs I’ll be Shine on her and set her free [Verse 3] When her spirit dips down low Hold her hand don’t let it go [Verse 4] See her smile through the tears Brush away what she fears [Bridge] World outside may seem so tough But together we are enough

[Verse] Down a dirt road off Route 9, Where the old oak trees still shine, There's a diner with a neon sign, And a heart that's always mine. [Verse 2] Jimmy's got a truck parked out back, Sippin' coffee from a borrowed flask. Life moves slow, and that's a fact, Underneath our small town mask. [Chorus] Oh, small town lights, they burn so bright, Guiding us through every night. We'll dance till dawn, hold on tight, In the glow of small town lights. [Verse 3] Miss Sally's baking pies again, Sweet apple, make you forget the rain. Stories shared around the windmill vane, In this place where love remains. [Verse 4] Fields of gold, open air, Hands held tight, no need to care. Whispers soft, promises fair, In the twilight's final glare. [Chorus] Oh, small town lights, they burn so bright, Guiding us through every night. We'll dance till dawn, hold on tight, In the glow of small town lights.
