Verse 1 Marvin: Back at Tecún Umán, just a couple of kids, Four patojos dreaming bigger than the life we lived. Carlos and Gerber sitting right by our side, Talking rock and roll through every lunchtime. Balbino: We'd fill our notebooks with logos and names, Imagining spotlights and crowds chanting our fame. KISS, Queen, and the Beatles showed us the way, And we swore we'd be up there someday. Pre-Chorus Marvin: We didn't have guitars, Balbino: We didn't have a stage, Both: But we had a fire nobody could tame. Chorus Both: Whoa-oh-oh, we were Sphinx forever! Four young dreamers believing together. Whoa-oh-oh, hear the crowd roar loud, Ten thousand voices singing now. From the streets of our city to the stadium lights, We carried those dreams through every night. Whoa-oh-oh, and we'll always be, Those four patojos chasing destiny. Verse 2 Balbino: After school we'd wander all over town, Looking for adventures wherever they were found. Past San Vicente we'd slow our pace, Trying to act cool with a smile on our face. Marvin: Kermeses and dances every weekend we'd go, The whole city became our own rock-and-roll show. Every sidewalk was a stage in our minds, Leaving ordinary days far behind. Pre-Chorus Balbino: Air guitars on our shoulders, Marvin: Invisible microphones, Both: The city was our stadium before we got home. Chorus Both: Whoa-oh-oh, we were Sphinx forever! Four young dreamers believing together. Whoa-oh-oh, hear the crowd roar loud, Ten thousand voices singing now. From the streets of our city to the stadium lights, We carried those dreams through every night. Whoa-oh-oh, and we'll always be, Those four patojos chasing destiny. Verse 3 – The First Concert Marvin: Then came the night of our very first show, Nervous as hell but we wouldn't let it show. The crowd wasn't huge, the stage wasn't grand, But it was the first time we stood as a band. Balbino: Carlos found the rhythm, Gerber joined the sound, And suddenly our dream was standing on solid ground. For a few shining moments under those lights, We were living what we'd imagined every night. Pre-Chorus Marvin: It wasn't Wembley, Balbino: It wasn't Shea, Both: But to us it felt like the world that day. Chorus Both: Whoa-oh-oh, we were Sphinx forever! Four young dreamers believing together. Whoa-oh-oh, hear the crowd roar loud, Ten thousand voices singing now. From the streets of our city to the stadium lights, We carried those dreams through every night. Whoa-oh-oh, and we'll always be, Those four patojos chasing destiny. Verse 4 – The Biggest Challenge (Call & Response) Marvin: Then the years started pulling us different ways... Balbino: Did we think the dream was over? Crowd: No way! No way! Marvin: Life got busy, jobs and families came... Balbino: Did we ever forget our name? Crowd: SPHINX! SPHINX! Marvin: The guitars got quiet for a little while... Balbino: Did the fire ever die? Crowd: Never! Never! Marvin: The road got hard and the nights got long... Balbino: What kept us moving on? Crowd: The dream! The dream! Build Marvin: Who were we? Crowd: Four patojos! Balbino: Where did it start? Crowd: Tecún Umán! Marvin: What was our name? Crowd: SPHINX! Balbino: And what did we believe? Crowd: Anything was possible! Bridge Marvin: Can you remember those long walks home? Balbino: Talking about the places we'd go? Marvin: The stadium lights we could almost see— Balbino: Just over the horizon waiting for me. Both: Marvin! Carlos! Gerber! Balbino! The dream was bigger than the town we'd known. Marvin! Carlos! Gerber! Balbino! And somehow those days still feel like home. Crowd Sing-Along Marvin: Do you remember those streets? Crowd: Those streets! Those streets! Balbino: Do you remember the dreams? Crowd: The dreams! The dreams! Marvin: Back at Tecún Umán! Crowd: Tecún Umán! Tecún Umán! Balbino: And the band called Sphinx! Crowd: SPHINX! SPHINX! SPHINX! Final Chorus Both: Whoa-oh-oh, we were Sphinx forever! Crowd: SPHINX FOREVER!

Crowd: Marvin! Carlos! Gerber! Balbino! Both & Crowd: Whoa-oh-oh, though the years rolled by, Those memories never die. Back at Tecún Umán where it all began, Four boys with impossible plans. Whoa-oh-oh, if you close your eyes, You can still see Sphinx beneath the lights. Outro Marvin: Four boys... Balbino: One city... Marvin: One dream... Both: And somewhere in our hearts, Sphinx is still playing to a sold-out crowd. Crowd (fading): SPHINX FOREVER... SPHINX FOREVER... Marvin... Carlos... Gerber... Balbino... Whoa-oh-oh... Whoa-oh-oh... SPHINX FOREVER... 🎸🏟️🎤 Provide your feedback on BizChat
