On the dawn of the seventeenth light
We stood where shadows meet the sky
What we saw no words could name
A silent call a shifting flame

In the whispers of that morning
Only I could see the warning
What it meant the secret stayed
Hidden in the fog we made

Seventeen steps through the veil
(through the veil)
The truth moved like shifting trails
(shifting trails)
We saw the form but not the sign
(not the sign)
The answer's buried deep in time
(deep in time)

Eyes met but the words were sealed
The moment stretched the stars revealed
A glimpse of what we couldn’t find
But still it lingered in my mind

Through the echoes through the glass
Only I could see the past
What we sought was never lost
Yet the silence held the cost

Seventeen steps through the veil
(oh through the veil)
The truth moved like shifting trails
(in shifting trails)
We saw the form but not the sign
(oh not the sign)
The answer's buried deep in time
(buried in time)

On that morning they turned away
But I held on to what it’d say
It wasn’t time to speak or claim
For what I knew could never change

Seventeen steps through the veil
(oh through the veil)
The truth moved like shifting trails
(in shifting trails)
We saw the form but not the sign
(oh not the sign)
The answer's buried deep in time
(buried in time)

On the 17th we saw the light
But only I know what’s in sight
Hidden paths a silent sign
The morning saved what's always mine

She blows into town on a street bike
With her hair done up in cornrows
Gets off the gas like a hot dam
Wearing all pink head to toe

She steps into the bar like a cannonball
All the folks turn around like an old saw
She orders three shots
Honey on the rocks
And a Manhattan in her straw

She ain't here for long but she still shows
People come and go but she always knows
She ain't one for crowds and she never bows
But she still sold every row

Said a bad word one time in a nightclub
Said "Oops
That's too far"
Always says thank you to the bartender
Always says "Please
" "Oops
That's too far"

She steps into the bar like a cannonball
All the folks turn around like an old saw
She orders three shots
Honey on the rocks
And a Manhattan in her straw

She ain't here for long but she still shows
People come and go but she always knows
She ain't one for crowds and she never bows
But she still sold every row

The summer nights
They call her name
The winter months
They call in vain
When she's there
People can't complain
The streets are flooded from the rain

She ain't here for long but she still shows
People come and go but she always knows
She ain't one for crowds and she never bows
But she still sold every row

In the quiet of the night I sit alone
Thinking of the place I used to call home
Every memory every scene
Stirs a longing deep within

From the roads I once wandered
To the faces I once pondered
In the distance I can hear
Echoes of my yesteryear

Oh how I miss my homeland
The scent of rain the touch of sand
Every corner holds a piece of me
In my heart it will always be

From the familiar paths I roamed
To the stories that were sown
In the tongue of my ancestors
I find comfort I find rest

Through the rush through the hum
Of the life I once knew I strum
The memories that used to play
In the land where I once lay

But now I'm far across the sea
Chasing dreams yet feeling free
But in my heart I'll always yearn
For the place where I'll return

Oh how I miss my homeland
The scent of rain the touch of sand
Every corner holds a piece of me
In my heart it will always be

So until the day I find my way
Back to the land where memories stay
I'll carry with me in every stride
The love for my homeland deep inside

Walking down these city streets
Memories dancing at my feet
Dreams fade in the morning sun
But tonight I’m on the run

I feel the rhythm calling out
Heartbeats racing no more doubt
Stars above they guide my way
Let’s turn the night into day

Let the music set us free
Find our own reality
Lost in melodies so sweet
Life's a tune let's feel the beat

Shadows moving feeling bold
Stories waiting to be told
Eyes that shine like the moon
Together we’ll find our tune

I feel the rhythm calling out
Heartbeats racing no more doubt
Stars above they guide my way
Let’s turn the night into day

Let the music set us free
Find our own reality
Lost in melodies so sweet
Life's a tune let's feel the beat

Hands up high voices rise
In this moment no disguise
Every note we come alive
Together we will thrive

I feel the rhythm calling out
Heartbeats racing no more doubt
Stars above they guide my way
Let’s turn the night into day

Let the music set us free
Find our own reality
Lost in melodies so sweet
Life's a tune let's feel the beat

Tonight we dance until the dawn
In this world we’re never gone

I've waited for so long
To find where I belong
Then you came into my life
Everything feels so right

Now my days are shining bright
You light up my darkest night
Every moment feels brand new
All because I found you

Found my love can't believe
Is it true? (Yes it is)
Hearts in sync we are free
Can you feel? (Oh I do)
Together now endlessly
Is it real? (Yes it's true)
(Dance with me!) All night long
Take my hand! (Hold it tight)
Fly with me! (To the stars)
(Shine so bright!) In your light)

Walking on air with you
Every dream has come true
Smiling every single day
You chase my blues away

Now that you are by my side
There's no need for me to hide
Every step we take is bold
In your arms I find my gold

Now my days are shining bright
You light up my darkest night
Every moment feels brand new
All because I found you

"Il n'est pas de sauveurs suprêmes
Ni Dieu ni César ni tribun"

An old song spoke of distant truths
Voices claimed in solemn hues
"There are no supreme saviors" they said
"Neither God nor Caesar nor tribune" they pled

But I hold a faith profound and deep
No grand savior no promises to keep
Just a belief in the divine
A presence vast a light that shines

"Il n'est pas de sauveurs suprêmes
Ni Dieu ni César ni tribun"

In this world of shifting sands
I find solace in unspoken lands
No tribune to raise a guiding hand
Just the whisper of a higher plan

But I hold a faith profound and deep
No grand savior no promises to keep
Just a belief in the divine
A presence vast a light that shines

"Il n'est pas de sauveurs suprêmes
Ni Dieu ni César ni tribun"

The lyrics of old still resonate
Yet in my heart I contemplate
No need for a figure to save the day
For I find my peace in another way

But I hold a faith profound and deep
No grand savior no promises to keep
Just a belief in the divine
A presence vast a light that shines

"Il n'est pas de sauveurs suprêmes
Ni Dieu ni César ni tribun"

Just the endless skies the stars above
And a quiet trust a boundless love

"Il n'est pas de sauveurs suprêmes
Ni Dieu ni César ni tribun"

Do do do do doooooo
Aaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaa
Do do do do doooooo
Oooo ooooooooooooo

Under the shade of an old oak tree
We shared our secrets and made history
Through the storms and the sunny days
We walked together come what may

Through thick and thin like waves we ride
In each other we confide

Friends forever side by side
No mountain high no ocean wide
(Oh oh)
Loyal hearts a bond so strong
Together we belong

Do do do do doooooo
Aaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaa
Do do do do doooooo
Oooo ooooooooooooo

In the dark we light the way
With a smile or a word to say
When the world turns cold and gray
We’re the warmth that never fades

Through thick and thin like waves we ride
In each other we confide

Friends forever side by side
No mountain high no ocean wide
(Oh oh)
Loyal hearts a bond so strong
Together we belong

Do do do do doooooo
Aaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaa
Do do do do doooooo
Oooo ooooooooooooo

In our eyes a timeless spark
Guiding through the dark

In this dance of life we stand
Hand in hand forever planned

Shadows stretch across the concrete plains
A symphony of strangers bound by threads and chains
Fingers tapping stories on a glass-lit screen
We’re caught between the moments and the in-between

The city's breathing it's alive in the haze
We’re just satellites circling the maze
Trading time for something we can’t name
It’s a fleeting game it’s a fleeting game

Tell me where do we go when the sky turns grey?
Will we burn through the night or fade away?
Carrying the weight of the words unsaid
Running from the echoes that fill our heads

Fading billboards tell of dreams misplaced
Lost among the towers in the hollowed space
Faces flash like ghosts through revolving doors
We’re chasing what was ours but it’s not ours anymore

The city's breathing it's alive in the haze
We’re just satellites circling the maze
Trading time for something we can’t name
It’s a fleeting game it’s a fleeting game

Tell me where do we go when the sky turns grey?
Will we burn through the night or fade away?
Carrying the weight of the words unsaid
Running from the echoes that fill our heads

Are we the dreamers or are we the dream?
Lost in the in-between
Are we the seekers or are we unseen?
Caught in the in-between

Time slips like water through my open hands
Leaving trails of meaning in the shifting sands
What if all we’re chasing is the here and now?
Can we stop the spiral? Do we even know how?

Tell me where do we go when the sky turns grey?
Will we burn through the night or fade away?
Carrying the weight of the words unsaid
Running from the echoes that fill our heads

Shadows stretch across the concrete plains
Bound by threads and chains still calling our names

I've been running through the fire feeling the heat of my own fears
Trying to catch that spark of desire after all these wasted years
I've got a compass in my hand no more following the blind
Gonna draw a brand new map and leave the past behind

No more chasing dreams
I'm finding what it means

I'm stepping out into the light
No more shadows in my sight
I've turned a page I’m on my way
To a brand new night and a brighter day

Yesterday's a faded book I don't need to read it twice
I've learned to walk on solid ground not afraid to roll the dice
There's a rhythm in my step a melody in my soul
I'm not looking back at what I lost I'm ready to feel whole

No more chasing dreams
I'm finding what it means

I'm stepping out into the light
No more shadows in my sight
I've turned a page I’m on my way
To a brand new night and a brighter day

Every breath is a new song
I’ve been waiting for so long

I'm stepping out into the light
No more shadows in my sight
I've turned a page I’m on my way
To a brand new night and a brighter day

I’m stepping out I’m on my way
To a brand new night and a brighter day

Woke up to a stormy day
The clouds are thick the sky's so gray
Feet feel heavy on this ground
Tough times keep on circling 'round

Lost in this endless maze
Feels like I'm running in place

The weight is pressing down
Deep
Sigh
But I'll find a way
Keep
Trying

When the world feels upside down
Rolling thunder can't you hear the sound?
Holding on through the darkest night
This too shall pass it's just a ride
Through the storm I'll find my light

The wind's howling blowing strong
But I know where I belong
Even when the road is rough
Gonna push through it's just tough

Facing shadows on my own
Still I'll find my way back home

The weight is pressing down
Deep
Sigh
But I'll find a way
Keep
Trying

When the world feels upside down
Rolling thunder can't you hear the sound?
Holding on through the darkest night
This too shall pass it's just a ride
Through the storm I'll find my light

Life's a wild ocean waves keep crashing
But I'll stay afloat keep on laughing

The weight is pressing down
Deep
Sigh
But I'll find a way
Keep
Trying

Saw you standing by the shore waves crashing at your feet
Your smile lit up the world made my heart skip a beat
With every glance you threw felt a spark ignite
Dancing in the summer sun everything felt right

Hearts beating faster lost in this chase
Together we can conquer any time or place

Love's a rhythm we can't deny
Underneath the starry sky
Feel the magic you and I
We'll keep dancing till the night says goodbye

Nights are getting warmer holding you so tight
Laughing till the morning comes everything feels light
Your touch is like a melody makes my spirit fly
Lost in every moment you’re my sweetest high

Together we'll go far riding on this wave
Every single heartbeat dancing love we crave

Love's a rhythm we can't deny
Underneath the starry sky
Feel the magic you and I
We'll keep dancing till the night says goodbye

Love's a rhythm we can't deny
Underneath the starry sky
Feel the magic you and I
We'll keep dancing till the night says goodbye
