Lyrics
[Intro: Instrumental]
[A gentle, reflective piano melody sets the tone, gradually building into a hopeful soundscape]
[Verse 1]
There's an old man, with eyes like the winter sky,
Had a scare that shook him, made him realize.
It’s springtime, and the cherry blossoms call,
He wants to see the world, not ready to fall.
[Chorus]
Heart, keep beating strong,
Through the streets where I belong.
I’ve got dreams that can’t wait,
I'm standing at the gate,
Ready to fly, not saying goodbye.
[Verse 2]
Each step slower, each breath a bit more dear,
Walking through the city, fighting back the fear.
The blossoms bloom, as pink as the morning glow,
Reminding him of strength, he’s not letting go.
[Bridge]
Surgery looms like a storm on a clear day,
But he’s a fighter, won’t just fade away.
Plans and dreams, they swirl through his mind,
A testament to the life he’s yet to find.
[Chorus]
Heart, keep beating strong,
Through the streets where I belong.
I’ve got dreams that can’t wait,
I'm standing at the gate,
Ready to fly, not saying goodbye.
[Verse 3]
Reflections of a life, in the mirror of time,
But he’s not done yet, still climbing his prime.
With every beat, his resolve grows,
To see another spring, as his heart knows.
[Verse 3]
Reflections of a life, in the mirror of time,
But he’s not done yet, still climbing his prime.
With every beat, his resolve grows,
To see another spring, as his heart knows.
[Outro with Chorus Crescendo]
Oh, my heart, race with the breeze,
Carry me through cities, over seas.
With every blossom, every sight,
I’ll find my strength, my will to fight.
[Chorus repeats with a full orchestral swell, lifting the song to a powerful, emotional peak, before softly fading out.]
