Song information
Ive visited this place twice.
In communist times and in recent years.
The town is still mysterious but the people have changed.
This song is about the first time I went there as a 23 year old.
What I observed and the 'nice' ordeal as well :)

Lyrics
THE OLD STREETS OF PRAGUE
by Gerald G ©2024

Verse 1:
Gray socialist squares under winter-dark skies
Walking past statues with watchful stone eyes
Far from my Melbourne home, twenty-three and alone
Through the mist of my breath, watching stories unfold

Chorus:
In the old streets of Prague
Where the past meets today
Where the shadows hold secrets
And strangers don't stay.

Verse 2:
Met an old vendor selling wooden dolls
His weathered hands told tales of Berlin's walls
Shared bitter coffee in a basement café
While outside Trabants rolled slowly away

Chorus:

Verse 3:
Then in a doorway, her smile caught my eye
Red lips and dark hair against twilight sky
No common language, just glances and touch
One night of freedom that meant so much

Chorus:

End
