Lament of the mapmaker (Version 2)

I was dreaming of the city lights, Thought I’d never find my place, Stuck in this little town, feelin’ out of space, All I saw was empty streets, And the same old faces every day, Had my heart set on running far away. But time don’t move so fast, And I’ve come to learn at last… It’s a small town, but it’s all I need, The kind of place where you can really breathe, Where the world moves slow, but the love runs deep, You find yourself when you least expect to, Yeah, I’ve grown and I’ve learned the truth, That this small town’s got big roots. Used to laugh when they said "Don't go too far," "There's a place for you right where you are," But the years go by, and you start to see, All the things you missed when you were chasing dreams, The corner store, the diner booth, Neighbors who know your every move. I didn’t get it at first, But now it’s a blessing, not a curse… It’s a small town, but it’s all I need, The kind of place where you can breathe, Where the world moves slow, but the love runs deep, You find yourself when you least expect to, Yeah, I’ve grown and I’ve learned the truth, That this small town’s got big roots. Bridge: And every scar I’ve got, Is a story from these streets, Where they never let you fall, ‘Cause they’re always there to catch your dreams. It’s more than just a name on a map, It’s the heart that keeps you coming back. It’s a small town, but it’s all I need, The kind of place where you can breathe, Where the world moves slow, but the love runs deep, You find yourself when you least expect to, Yeah, I’ve grown and I’ve learned the truth, That this small town’s got big roots. So here I stand, and I’m proud to say, I wouldn't trade a single day… ‘Cause this small town’s got big roots. Oh yeah, small town’s got big roots.

Verse 1: I was dreaming of the city lights, Thought I’d never find my place, Stuck in this little town, feelin’ out of space, All I saw was empty streets, And the same old faces every day, Had my heart set on running far away. Pre-Chorus: But time don’t move so fast, And I’ve come to learn at last… Chorus: It’s a small town, but it’s all I need, The kind of place where you can really breathe, Where the world moves slow, but the love runs deep, You find yourself when you least expect to, Yeah, I’ve grown and I’ve learned the truth, That this small town’s got big roots. Verse 2: Used to laugh when they said "Don't go too far," "There's a place for you right where you are," But the years go by, and you start to see, All the things you missed when you were chasing dreams, The corner store, the diner booth, Neighbors who know your every move. Pre-Chorus: I didn’t get it at first, But now it’s a blessing, not a curse… Chorus: It’s a small town, but it’s all I need, The kind of place where you can breathe, Where the world moves slow, but the love runs deep, You find yourself when you least expect to, Yeah, I’ve grown and I’ve learned the truth, That this small town’s got big roots.

Outro: So here I stand, and I’m proud to say, I wouldn't trade a single day… ‘Cause this small town’s got big roots. Oh yeah, small town’s got big roots. (Oh, oh, oh...)

See pole mingi nali Ta armastab roosasid kassikostüüme Ja laupäevaseid jalutuskäike Ta sööb hommikuti kartulisalatit Ja laulab vannis ooperit Ja kõik kes teda tunnevad teavad et ta armastuse ikoon Mu vend on lesbi Ja see on tõsi Ta sõidab tööle triibulise tõukerattaga Ja sööb jäätist hommikul Armastus on armastus Isegi kui see on veidi hull Mu vend on lesbi Ja ta on meie perekonna superstaar Ta tantsib vihmas kannab vikerkaare sokke Ta armastab suhkruvatti ja mängib ukulelet toas Kõik kassid naabruskonnas tulevad tema juurde kui ta vilistab Ja iga pidu kus ta käib muutub kohe karnevaliks Mu vend on lesbiJa see on tõsi Ta sõidab tööle triibulise tõukеrattaga Ja sööb jäätist hommikul Armastus on armastus Isegi kui see on veidi hull Mu vend on lеsbi Ja ta on meie perekonna superstaar

Na manhã fria de geada Já me levanto cedinho Tomo meu mate sozinho Observando a madrugada A vida é assim passada Entre o gado e o galpão O trabalho é minha paixão Mas às vezes dói no peito Este destino que aceito De viver na solidão O cavalo é companheiro Das longas horas do dia Mas não traz a alegria De um abraço verdadeiro Sou um simples campeiro Cuidando do meu rincão Tenho orgulho da profissão Mas confesso com tristeza Que em meio a tanta beleza Falta calor de irmão Refrão: Ah, vida de peão É sina que carrego No campo encontro sossego Mas falta um aperto de mão O tempo vai e vem então Deixando marcas no rosto Entre tristeza e desgosto Sigo firme no meu posto FInal: As pessoas vêm e vão Como nuvens passageiras Deixam histórias ligeiras Mas nunca ficam então É difícil ter conexão Quando a vida é movimento Mas guardo cada momento No fundo do coração E sigo sendo peão Enfrentando vento e tempo

We fell in love at a young age Mama and daddy saw it straight I always wondered what it would take for us to get engaged We bought a house on 20 acres Big ol’ yard for the kids to play in Tennessee is where I had take you But we were only kids so it wouldn’t faze you Got stuck up by the Mason Dixon Windows down in the Silverado Country playing on the radio station I never knew what it would take to make you mine, We were only 800 miles from your boys back home They always told us we would never make it, Down the back roads of Tennessee But i look at you and say we did it baby We got a family now where we’re meant to be but it’ll never be the same Our family back in Pennsylvania fell to tears when we did it My mama wants to see her baby but it’s just not meant to be Maybe one day we’ll go back to visit but for now we’re down in Tennessee He’s got a big ol’ truck that we take down those back roads Windows down, speaker up on the way back home Kids in the back yelling daddy i see it The big farm house on the 20 acres with the wrap around porch that we always dreamed of I always wondered how we made it To the back streets of Tennessee But baby we made it Mama and daddy you see I’ll always love you and i want to come back home but it just ain’t meant to be Just ain’t meant to be I want to live with my babies on the back roads in Tennessee We never went to the mason Dixons but we’d seen those county lines on our final way back home In the Silverado, windows down and country on the radio Mama and daddy we made it I love you but it just wasn’t meant to be

[Verse 1] Oh, Mom and Dad, you’re the best around, You gave me the gift, a treasure I found, A Lenovo ThinkCentre, sturdy and true, I owe it all, my thanks to you. Clark’s on a journey, he’s walking the street, Knocking on doors with tired feet, He’s searching for work, he’s doing his best, To buy it back and lay your worries to rest. [Chorus] Mom and Dad, you’re my guiding light, Through the darkest days and the sleepless nights, I’m sorry for the lies, I’m sorry for the strain, But your love has helped me find my way again. [Verse 2] I know you might doubt the plans I’ve made, For the ThinkCentre’s power to be upgraded, But trust in me, I know what it needs, For 3D models and animation speed. I was rash, I was wrong, I won’t deny, Impatience got me tangled in a web of lies, Cash Converters was a tale I shouldn’t have spun, But I’ve learned my lesson; the damage is done. [Chorus] Mom and Dad, you’re my guiding light, Through the darkest days and the sleepless nights, I’m sorry for the lies, I’m sorry for the strain, But your love has helped me find my way again. [Bridge] Clark loves you more than words can say, He’s learning to change, to find his way, The weight of reliance, he understands, But with your support, he’ll make his stand. Soon you’ll see the man he can be, Independent, strong, living freely, Everything’s happened as it was meant, With every trial, his heart’s intent. [Outro] Oh, Mom and Dad, you’re the best around, No one else like you can be found. Through all my flaws, you’ve stood by me, Thank you for the ThinkCentre and your belief in me.

**Title: 'Houston Heart, Sweetwater Soul'** **(Verse 1)** In the shadow of the bayou, where the oaks sway low, A Texas boy with a heart, set on dreams to grow. He rolls down in his truck, where the stars shine bright, Just a Houston boy with a soul, ready to ignite. **(Chorus)** Two worlds collide under a southern sky, A Texas boy and a Tennessee girl, oh my! From the Lone Star State to the Smoky Mountains high, In the dance of love, they’re learning to fly. **(Verse 2)** She’s a sweet Tennessee girl, with a heart made of gold, From Sweetwater nights, where the stories unfold. With a laugh like a melody, and a spirit so free, She found a piece of home in his warm memory. **(Chorus)** Two worlds collide under a southern sky, A Texas boy and a Tennessee girl, oh my! From the Lone Star State to the Smoky Mountains high, In the dance of love, they’re learning to fly. **(Bridge)** He showed her the rodeos, the wild cowboy nights, She took him to the river where the fireflies light. With every sunset painted, they close the miles apart, A Texas boy and a Tennessee girl, one beating heart. **(Verse 3)** Through the storms and the sunshine, hand in hand they stand, Writing their own story in this beautiful land. From the fields of bluebonnets to the hills of green, Together they’ll conquer all, living out their dream. **(Chorus)** Two worlds collide under a southern sky, A Texas boy and a Tennessee girl, oh my! From the Lone Star State to the Smoky Mountains high, In the dance of love, they’re learning to fly. **(Outro)** So here’s to the nights when our laughter won’t fade, A Texas boy and a Tennessee heart that’s made. Through the whispers of the pines and the warm, sweet breeze, Together forever, with love’s sweetest ease.

**Title: Love Ain’t Lookin’ for Me** *Verse 1* I’ve been down every backroad, tried every bar, Talked to strangers under neon stars. Swiped through faces, said all the right lines, But every spark fades out in time. I’ve chased the sunset, waited on the rain, Searched for her in the joy and the pain. But love keeps slippin’ through my hands, Like water runnin’ through dry, cracked land. *Chorus* Love ain’t lookin’ for me, I’m a shadow it don’t see. I’ve been callin’ its name, but it won’t call back, Just a heart on the run down a one-way track. I’m a drifter in the desert, a sailor lost at sea, Guess love ain’t lookin’ for me. *Verse 2* I’ve heard it’s patient, I’ve heard it’s kind, But it feels more like a cruel state of mind. People say it’ll show up when you’re not aware, But I’ve been blind, and it’s still not there. Maybe it’s my boots, maybe it’s my scars, Maybe love don’t care for these old guitars. But every song I write feels the same, Just me and the echo of its name. *Chorus* Love ain’t lookin’ for me, I’m a shadow it don’t see. I’ve been callin’ its name, but it won’t call back, Just a heart on the run down a one-way track. I’m a drifter in the desert, a sailor lost at sea, Guess love ain’t lookin’ for me. *Bridge* Maybe it’s out there, somewhere tonight, In the arms of someone who holds it tight. But I can’t chase what I can’t find, So I’ll keep movin’ down this line. *Chorus* Love ain’t lookin’ for me, I’m a shadow it don’t see. I’ve been callin’ its name, but it won’t call back, Just a heart on the run down a one-way track. I’m a drifter in the desert, a sailor lost at sea, Guess love ain’t lookin’ for me. *Outro* So I’ll toast to the night and let it be, If love won’t look, it won’t find me.

Thanksgiving morn' 4am, momma's starting the fire birds all ready, bourbon's on get outta' bed, hungover and drink some more It's thankgiving day, and sober this time

The wind do blow a mournful tune, through branches stark and bare, November's grip be tightenin', a chill hangs in the air. But hearth fires glow with warmth within, and tables creak and groan, Beneath the weight of plenty, for blessings to be sown. (Chorus) Thanksgiving comes, a solemn feast, where shadows gather deep, And memories of loved ones lost, in silent vigil keep. We raise a glass to absent friends, to those beyond the veil, And give our thanks for simple joys, lest fleeting time should fail. (Verse 2) The turkey roasted brown and crisp, a sacrifice of old, Stuffing rich with herbs and spice, a story to be told. Cranberry sauce, a ruby gleam, like blood upon the snow, A reminder of the hardships past, that hungry souls did know. (Chorus) Thanksgiving comes, a solemn feast, where shadows gather deep, And memories of loved ones lost, in silent vigil keep. We raise a glass to absent friends, to those beyond the veil, And give our thanks for simple joys, lest fleeting time should fail. (Bridge) The pumpkin pie, a golden hue, a comfort to the soul, But every bite a fleeting taste, as years begin to roll. For time, like autumn leaves, descends, and fades to winter's sleep, And all that's left are memories, the harvest we shall reap. (Chorus) Thanksgiving comes, a solemn feast, where shadows gather deep, And memories of loved ones lost, in silent vigil keep. We raise a glass to absent friends, to those beyond the veil, And give our thanks for simple joys, lest fleeting time should fail. (Outro) So gather close, ye thankful hearts, and let the fire burn, For life's a gift, a fleeting spark, a lesson to be learned. Give thanks for love, for kith and kin, for all that makes life whole, And face the coming darkness, with strength within your soul.

The wind do blow a mournful tune, through branches stark and bare, November's grip be tightenin', a chill hangs in the air.

(Chorus) Thanksgiving comes, a solemn feast, where shadows gather deep, And memories of loved ones lost, in silent vigil keep. We raise a glass to absent friends, to those beyond the veil, And give our thanks for simple joys, lest fleeting time should fail.
