Prague Under Moonlight

[Intro] Swaying with the overnight bus, I crossed the night without sleep. Morning light began to fill the streets, And my Prague journey came to life. [Verse 1] Soon after arriving in Prague, I stopped at McDonald’s for a break. I went to use the restroom, But was surprised they accepted cash only. This country used a currency I had never seen before. After leaving my luggage at the hostel, I set out into the stylish city. [Pre-Chorus] Elegant trams rolled through the streets, Passing red rooftops along the way. I walked beneath the Powder Tower And touched a world from long ago. The hands of the Astronomical Clock Held centuries of stories. Quietly marking the passing time, It watched over everyone below. [Chorus] Prague, Prague, beautiful city, The city I loved more than any before. Wrapped in music and golden light, You colored my heart with grace. [Verse 2] A giant metronome Kept time above the hill. The long shadow of Prague Castle Watched over the city’s history. The spire of St. Vitus Cathedral Reached into the blue sky. A city loved by travelers from Japan, Where I heard my own language far from home. [Instrumental Interlude I] The violin dissolved into the wind, While the piano illuminated the streets. With the cello’s quiet, lower voice, Prague grew deeper in the night. [Verse 3] A breeze crossed Charles Bridge, And city lights trembled on the river. The silent statues of the saints Seemed to watch us as we walked. I stood before Kafka’s statue, Looking at the border between dreams and reality. The National Theatre was glowing, And the Dancing House floated in the night. [Chorus] Prague, Prague, city of music, The violin colors the night. Beneath the light of the moon, Everything becomes a painting. [Verse 4] A Trdelník covered in cinnamon, Its sweet aroma made me stop. Crisp and warm on the outside, Soft within, a taste I won’t forget. The world’s greatest beer-drinking nation, So I raised a glass that night. Laughing that beer was cheaper than water, I watched the golden foam disappear. The city bells rang through the square, And voices melted into the night. The flavors I discovered on the road Became part of Prague’s memory. [Instrumental Interlude II] The piano brushed across the water, The violin danced beneath the moon. A noble classical melody Awakened memories of the old city. [Bridge] I walked through Prague at night, Under the light of the moon. On quiet streets where I felt safe, My heart beat louder than my fears. From Prague Castle, the rooftops Rolled like waves below. In the middle of this beautiful city, I found a view that felt like mine. [Instrumental Interlude III] The violin left a lingering echo, The piano breathed softly on. As the sound of the tram faded away, Night settled over Prague. [Final Chorus] Prague, Prague, beautiful city, The city I loved more than any before. Wrapped in music and golden light, You colored my heart with grace. Prague, Prague, beneath the moon, A breeze moved across Charles Bridge. I’ll carry every scene I saw As I travel on to the next country. [Outro] I looked back at Prague that night, As the tram lights faded away. The Powder Tower and Prague Castle Remain as a quiet song within me. The Astronomical Clock kept time, Melting into the moonlit air. Carried by the violin’s fading echo, My journey continues into the next chapter.
