[Verse] In a town where the mountains touch the sky, An old man works, where the dead lie. With hammer and chisel, he carves each name, In silence, he's known, never seeking fame. [Verse 2] His hands are worn, from years gone by, Blue eyes dim but they never lie. Each tombstone tells a story, etched in stone, Of love and loss, and lives unknown. [Chorus] The undertaker's tale, whispered on the breeze, Of folks who lived and dreamt 'neath the trees. He’s the keeper of the past, with a heart so true, In that small-town graveyard, he’ll see you through. [Verse 3] Every morning with the rising sun, He starts his work till the day is done. He knows each family, their joys and pains, And in his quiet way, he shares their gains. [Verse 4] His cabin's nestled by the rolling hills, Where the night-time air is calm and still. By candlelight he writes in a leather book, Recording every soul, their life he took. [Chorus] The undertaker's tale, whispered on the breeze, Of folks who lived and dreamt 'neath the trees. He’s the keeper of the past, with a heart so true, In that small-town graveyard, he’ll see you through.

**Verse 1:** In the quiet of the morning, when the sun begins to rise, I hear your voice a-whispering, like a prayer that never dies. You taught me how to stand tall, when the world tried to bring me down, With every word you spoke, Dad, I found my solid ground. **Chorus:** Oh Jakob, my heart's reflection, you’re my strength through stormy skies. Like a lighthouse in the darkness, shining hope with every sigh. Your love is a river flowing, washing troubles far away; Jakob, my guiding light—forever here to stay. **Verse 2:** When I stumbled on my journey and lost sight of where to go, You held me close beside you and whispered truth I needed most. With hands so strong yet gentle and a smile that breaks the night, You showed me faith can move mountains; you ignited all my fight. **Chorus:** Oh Jakob, my heart's reflection, you’re my strength through stormy skies. Like a lighthouse in the darkness, shining hope with every sigh. Your love is a river flowing, washing troubles far away; Jakob, my guiding light—forever here to stay. **Bridge:** Through laughter and through tears shared across these winding roads— Every moment made us richer as our bond forever grows. In every lesson learned from you lies grace that won’t depart— Jakob’s spirit lives within me; he’s forever in my heart. **Chorus:** Oh Jakob, my heart's reflection—you’re my strength through stormy skies. Like a lighthouse in the darkness—shining hope with every sigh. Your love is a river flowing—washing troubles far away; Jakob, my guiding light—forever here to stay. **Outro:** So I lift this song up high for all the world to see: A tribute to your kindness and your endless love for me. In each note there’s celebration of the man who gave his life— My dad named Jakob—the anchor in this life!
He caught you, in his orbit Your feet off the floor, you didn’t mind it You circled there, around his sun A solar flare, and now it’s done We’ve all been there before When you need, give me a call I’ll catch you, before you fall You can cry about, what you lost Your fated love, star crossed You hold your breath, i’ll hold your hand

I hear your voice in the wind, Whispering softly in my ear Carrying your words to me A message of love, so pure and dear I feel your presence all around A comforting embrace As the breeze gently touches my skin I can almost see your face I hear your voice in the breeze, A gentle murmur in the trees, Speaking to me of calm and peace, A reminder of our cherished memories. The rustling leaves echo your words, Carrying them to my heart, Filling me with warmth and comfort, A feeling that will never depart. I hear your voice in the rain, A symphony that soothes my pain. Whispering secrets of the universe, Filling my soul with a heavenly verse. As the rain washes away my tears, I feel you near again, A balm to soothe my weary soul, A love that will never end. I hear your voice in the howling storm Your voice speaks to me, loud and clear And in the quiet before the dawn, It washes away my doubts and fears. For the days we spent together, In laughter and in sweet songs, In moments divine and tender Every breath I take is filled with you, So I listen for your voice, In every whisper, every plea, Everything that I hold dear In every sound that surrounds me, For I know you’re always near.

Verse 1 I never told you how much I cared, Took you for granted, I was unaware. You gave it all, but I didn't see, The sacrifices you made for me. You tried to make us happy, tried to heal, Told us to forget the hurt we used to feel. But now the years have passed, and all I know, I wish I never let you go. Chorus Thank you for the love you gave, For every tear, for every brave face. I didn’t say what I should have said, Now you're gone, and I’m left here instead. I miss you more than words can say, Hope you're smiling where you lay. I love you still, despite the fight, And I hope you're giving Heaven hell tonight. Verse 2 You took us far from her, from all the pain, But in the process, we lost so much again. I know you did it all for us, But still, some scars just don't adjust. And though the years were full of tears, I don't blame you, not all these years. The things we said, the things we never knew, I wish I could take them back to you. Chorus Thank you for the love you gave, For every tear, for every brave face. I didn’t say what I should have said, Now you're gone, and I’m left here instead. I miss you more than words can say, Hope you're smiling where you lay. I love you still, despite the fight, And I hope you're giving Heaven hell tonight. Bridge I never thought I’d have to say goodbye, Not like this, not with this much inside. But now you're free, I know you’re at peace, Even though our hearts still grieve. Chorus Thank you for the love you gave, For every tear, for every brave face. I didn’t say what I should have said, Now you're gone, and I’m left here instead. I miss you more than words can say, Hope you're smiling where you lay. I love you still, despite the fight, And I hope you're giving Heaven hell tonight. Outro I hope you're giving Heaven hell tonight, And I’ll carry you with me, in every fight. I’ll love you still, through the endless years, Even though you're gone, you’re always here.
(MALE ) In the cradle of dawn, where the river's song flows, A child sits in her garden, where the marigold grows. Her dreams are like stars, untouched by night, Her laughter like birds, in their innocent flight. Yet the wind whispers tales, of a shadowed fate, A bride in the bud, her childhood's gate. The bindis, the bangles, the red of her veil, Cover the spark that no words can unveil. Why must the bloom be plucked from its stem, Before the morning has whispered to them? Why must the anklet, so heavy and cold, Bind the young feet, before they are old? O Mother, O Father, why hasten the day, When the blossoms of youth are stolen away? Let the river of time in its own course flow, Let the child in her garden, in her innocence, grow. And one day, the world will be hers to embrace, And the shadows of the past, she will then erase. But for now, let her be, in her garden so wild, Let her live, let her breathe, for she is still a child.
