Verse 1 In the heart of Hill Valley, under blue and gray skies, The clock hasn’t ticked since the lightning’s surprise. The hands are frozen, but the people still say, “Keep it standing proud — don’t let it fade away.” From the courthouse steps to the diner’s glow, We’ve watched that tower through rain and snow. It’s a symbol of who we used to be — A snapshot of our history. Chorus Save the clock tower! Don’t let it fall. It’s more than gears and more than walls. Time stood still that fateful night, But it still keeps our hope alight. Save the clock tower, let it stay, To remind us time can slip away. Verse 2 Some say “tear it down, build something new,” But I remember what that thunderstorm drew. It’s where love began, where courage grew, Where destiny changed for me and you. So drop a coin in the donation jar, The past ain’t gone — it’s never that far. ‘Cause when the future calls our name, The clock still rings just the same. Chorus Save the clock tower! Don’t let it fall. It’s more than gears and more than walls. Time stood still that fateful night, But it still keeps our hope alight. Save the clock tower, let it stay, To remind us time can slip away. Bridge (soft, reflective) The storm came down, the wires burned bright, A flash of fate in the heart of the night. But miracles hide in a spark and a scream — And time, my friend, is never what it seems. Final Chorus (soaring) Save the clock tower! Keep it true. For all that’s lost, and all we’ll do. Let it stand through every age, Our town’s unwritten, timeless page. Save the clock tower — come what may, ‘Cause time’s the one thing we can’t repay. Outro (gentle) So here’s to Hill Valley, forever, free, and more… And the clock that stopped at ten-oh-four.
