Another Country Song

(Verse 1) Well, the rain’s fallin’ down, like tears from the sky, On this old dirt road, where memories lie. I’m sittin’ on my porch, strummin’ my guitar, Singin’ 'bout love lost, and how far we’ve come. (Chorus) These rainy day sorrows, they haunt my soul, Like a lonesome coyote, howlin’ in the cold. I remember your smile, the touch of your hand, But now you’re gone, and I’m just a broken man. (Verse 2) The creek’s overflowin’, just like my heart, And the lightning cracks, tearin’ us apart. I used to believe in forever and a day, But now all I’ve got are these words to say: (Chorus) These rainy day sorrows, they haunt my soul, Like a lonesome coyote, howlin’ in the cold. I remember your smile, the touch of your hand, But now you’re gone, and I’m just a broken man. (Bridge) I’ll sit here and strum, watch the raindrops fall, Wonderin’ if you ever think of me at all. The thunder rolls, echoes of our love, Fadin’ away like the stars above. (Chorus) These rainy day sorrows, they haunt my soul, Like a lonesome coyote, howlin’ in the cold. I remember your smile, the touch of your hand, But now you’re gone, and I’m just a broken man. (Outro) So I’ll keep playin’ my heartache, singin’ my pain, In this little ol’ town, where the memories remain.

Verse 1: Woke up this morning, sky so gray, In the land of Khrona, where the old tales stay. Got a heavy heart, and a mind full of fight, Walking the path in the dim twilight. Chorus: Khrona’s lament, in the cold, dark night, Searching for the truth, under the pale moonlight. With every step, the shadows grow long, Singing the blues of where we belong. Verse 2: The river’s deep, and the hills are high, In this ancient place, where heroes lie. Echoes of battles, lost to time, Carrying the weight of a world in rhyme. Chorus: Khrona’s lament, in the cold, dark night, Searching for the truth, under the pale moonlight. With every step, the shadows grow long, Singing the blues of where we belong. Bridge: Stars above, they speak to me, Of the past, and what’s meant to be. In their light, I find my way, Through the darkness, to a brighter day. Chorus: Khrona’s lament, in the cold, dark night, Searching for the truth, under the pale moonlight. With every step, the shadows grow long, Singing the blues of where we belong. Outro: So I’ll keep on walking, through the storm, With a heart that’s battered, but still warm. Khrona’s song, it leads me home, In this ancient land, we’re never alone.

Verse 1: Ego ambulans, per vias solitudo, Cordis mei, tristitia profunda. In tenebris, anima mea clamat, Amor amissus, in memoria manet. Chorus: Tristitia animae, dolor cordis mei, Amor perditus, in aeternum manet. Canta, canta tristitiae, In corde meo, numquam desinet. Verse 2: Flumina lacrimarum, per genae fluunt, Anima mea, desiderio torquetur. In umbris, solitudo regnat, Amor amissus, numquam reviviscit. Bridge: Ad astra specto, in spe tenui, Sed amor meus, numquam revertitur. Chorus: Tristitia animae, dolor cordis mei, Amor perditus, in aeternum manet. Canta, canta tristitiae, In corde meo, numquam desinet. Verse 3: Memoriae, sicut flammae ardent, Anima mea, semper torquetur. In nocte, solus ploro, Amor perditus, dolor infinitus. Chorus: Tristitia animae, dolor cordis mei, Amor perditus, in aeternum manet. Canta, canta tristitiae, In corde meo, numquam desinet. Outro: Tristitia animae, mea fortuna, In aeternum, cantabo doloris mei.

[Verse] Well, the sun's settin' slow on a dusty old road, Tractor's parked in the barn, done carrying its load, Grandpa's on the porch swing, whistlin' a tune, To the song of the crickets and the rise of the moon. [Verse 2] Mama's cookin' supper, smell of cornbread in the air, Daddy's tellin' stories in his worn-out rocking chair, Kids runnin' barefoot, chasin' fireflies, It's the simple things in life that make it all worthwhile. [Chorus] On these backroads and memories, it's where I want to be, Livin' life slowly, under the old oak tree, Where love is pure and hearts are free, On these backroads and memories, it’s all I’ll ever need. [Verse 3] The church bell's ringing on a Sunday afternoon, Gather in the chapel, playin' that old gospel tune, Hands held together, heads bowed in prayer, In this little country town, Love is everywhere. [Verse 4] Fishing down by the creek, grandkid on my knee, Passing down stories, like my daddy did for me, We talked about the war, and how he met Grandma, It's these tales of old times, that bind us all. [Chorus] On these backroads and memories, it's where I want to be, Livin' life slowly, under the old oak tree, Where love is pure and hearts are free, On these backroads and memories, it’s all I’ll ever need.

(Verse 1) I see you standing there, a light in the dark, A spark of something special, deep within your heart, But every time I reach out, you're just out of grasp, In a world of your own, where the moments never last. (Chorus) I love you, but you're not ready, Caught in the storm, your heart's unsteady, I'll wait in the shadows, till you see, That you're the one, meant for me. (Verse 2) Your eyes, they tell a story, of a love that's been and gone, A melody that's broken, like a half-forgotten song, I try to find the rhythm, in the spaces in between, But you keep on dancing to a dream I've never seen. (Chorus) I love you, but you're not ready, Caught in the storm, your heart's unsteady, I'll wait in the shadows, till you see, That you're the one, meant for me. (Bridge) I know you've been through fire, burned by the flame, But I'm here to show you, love isn't just a game, Take your time to heal, I'll be here, waiting still, With a heart that's full of love, and a never-ending will. (Chorus) I love you, but you're not ready, Caught in the storm, your heart's unsteady, I'll wait in the shadows, till you see, That you're the one, meant for me. (Outro) And maybe someday soon, you'll find your way to me, We'll write a brand-new story, for the world to see, Until that day comes, I'll keep my love true, For no one else, just you.

[Verse 1] Woke up this morning, sun's startin' to rise Grabbed a cold one from the fridge, put on my Levis It's a small-town kind of Saturday, don’t have much to do Just me and my worn-out jeans and a cooler full of brew. [Verse 2] Headed down to the creek, the fellas follow near Toss some cans in the water, wearin' just our gear Got my favorite flannel, rolled sleeves up to there Feelin' pretty free in my beers and underwear. [Chorus] Beers and underwear, ain't got a single care Laughin' with good friends, feet up in the air Life's just a little sweeter when you’re livin’ without fear Out by the creek in my beers and underwear. [Verse 3] Neighbors wave from tractors, they're used to our ways We share a joke or two, in that summer haze Watch the fishin’ lines dance, floatin' in the summer glare Sippin’ ice-cold beer, loungin’ in my underwear. [Verse 4] Life's a simple melody, in this rural town Where troubles seem to vanish, when the sun goes down We got country tunes and moonshine, glowin' everywhere Livin' life unfiltered in our beers and underwear. [Chorus] Beers and underwear, ain't got a single care Laughin' with good friends, feet up in the air Life's just a little sweeter when you’re livin’ without fear Out by the creek in my beers and underwear.

**Title:** "Last Memories" **Verse 1:** My grandfather, born in '46, December 6th, a life so bold Parents cared for him, but soon, his siblings took the hold He went to war, sent by family's hand Came back alive, but years later, dementia took its stand **Chorus:** Oh, grandpa, I miss you so, your memories I hold tight Wish I could turn back time, spend more nights with you tonight You may be gone, but in my heart, you'll always shine Rest in peace, grandpa, fly high, I'll be fine **Verse 2:** My mom was young, and you were there, through her secondary days Though your health was failing, you still found ways to amaze My sister wrote a message, on a card, so pure and bright "Grandpa, get well soon, let's go play, I love you, day and night" **Chorus:** Oh, grandpa, I miss you so, your memories I hold tight Wish I could turn back time, spend more nights with you tonight You may be gone, but in my heart, you'll always shine Rest in peace, grandpa, fly high, I'll be fine **Bridge:** We went to the beach, that one last time You fished, though not so well, but your smile was still divine It was a fantastic day, one I'll always adore Little did I know, it was the last time we'd explore **Chorus:** Oh, grandpa, I miss you so, your memories I hold tight Wish I could turn back time, spend more nights with you tonight You may be gone, but in my heart, you'll always shine Rest in peace, grandpa, fly high, I'll be fine **Outro:** July 12th, 2022, the day you left us behind I'll always cry for you, but your love will be my guide In my dreams, I'll see you smile, and I'll be okay Grandpa, I love you, rest in peace, every day.

[Verse] You packed up your suitcase, left on a Friday, Took off without looking back, Your shadow still lingers, that old photograph, You left me with a heart that's cracked. [Verse 2] Now you're calling and confessing regrets, Saying you didn't know what to say, But I've counted the nights, the tears that I've cried, I've learned how to find my own way. [Chorus] It's too late to stay, I've moved on from yesterday, You can't mend what's torn apart, Though you'll forever have a piece of my heart, We're on different roads, gone too far. [Verse 3] I've been walking these backroads, finding my peace, With the stars lighting up my nights, Your voice in the wind, a faint memory, But I'm feeling strong in my fights. [Verse 4] What we had was a fire, a bright roaring flame, But it burned out, and left just the ashes, Now I know my worth, the joy and the pain, I'm moving on as time passes. [Chorus] It's too late to stay, I've moved on from yesterday, You can't mend what's torn apart, Though you'll forever have a piece of my heart, We're on different roads, gone too far.

Yes I guess we can meet again Talk like we are just old friends Isn’t that how it always begins When a marriage dies we decide how to divide our things Like couches and beds and wedding rings Memories fade as the fat lady sings. When a marriage dies One side might win. new love might begin God forgives the sin. But I never will I never will I set alone at this table waiting You enter with your latest mating Isn’t that how it always ends. When a marriage dies One side might win. new love might begin God forgives the sin But I never will. I never will

Well, my little girl’s bringin’ home a boy tonight, Says he’s the one who makes her heart take flight. I’ll greet him at the door with a big ol’ grin, But I’ve got a few warnings before he steps in. (Chorus) If you break her heart, I’ll break your truck, Pop all the tires and bring you bad luck. Cut those brake lines, watch you slip and slide, Better treat her right or you’ll take a wild ride. (Verse 2) I’ll be nice at dinner, pass the mashed potatoes, But I’m sizing up his smile and those slick tomatoes. When the night is over and you say goodbye, Just remember, son, this ain’t no lullaby. (Chorus) If you break her heart, I’ll break your truck, Pop all the tires and bring you bad luck. Cut those brake lines, watch you slip and slide, Better treat her right or you’ll take a wild ride. (Bridge) I’ve got a shotgun and a big ol’ dog, A chainsaw too, and a mean ol’ hog. So think twice, boy, before you make her cry, Or you’ll be packin’ up and sayin’ bye-bye. (Chorus) If you break her heart, I’ll break your truck, Pop all the tires and bring you bad luck. Cut those brake lines, watch you slip and slide, Better treat her right or you’ll take a wild ride. (Outro) So hold her close, boy, and treat her kind, Remember her daddy’s got a crazy mind. You hurt my girl, you’ll be outta luck, ‘Cause if you break her heart, I’ll break your truck.

(Verse 1) First kiss in autumn season, Leaves fall, colors changin’, Hearts beatin’ in unison, Whispers soft, not complainin’. (Verse 2) First date, holdin’ me tight, Underneath the pale moonlight, Summer days, we became a year, Hand in hand, no fear. (Chorus) Wanting a kiss on July night, Fireworks burstin’ so bright, You wrote love songs, made me cry, Thinking ‘bout our sweet sky. (Bridge) Dreamin’ of marryin’ you, Every word, you sway me too, Promises in each line, Hoping you’ll be mine. (Verse 3) Your tunes, they made me feel, Every note was so real, Dancin’ under starlit skies, Love reflecting in our eyes. (Chorus) Wanting a kiss on July night, Fireworks burstin’ so bright, You wrote love songs, made me cry, Thinking ‘bout our sweet sky. (Outro) First kiss in autumn's glow, Love’s warmth, we’ll always know, Seasons change, but love remains, In your arms, I’ll sustain.
