Nobody Knows His Name
Unsung Hero's Journey: A Tale of Love, Sacrifice, and Dreams
Lyrics
Nobody knows his name
Nobody is aware of his identity.
Starting it over is never the same
Repeating a fresh start doesn't replicate the past.
Nobody knows his name
His name remains unknown to others.
They just might someday
There's a possibility that people might learn about him in the future.
Pullin' up stakes 1893
In 1893, he uprooted and left his place of origin.
County Cork in Ireland way across the sea
He moved to County Cork in Ireland, far away.
Future made of dreams, wishes and a prayer
His future is built on aspirations, dreams, and prayers.
Knowing soon the one he loves will join him there
He anticipates the arrival of the one he loves.
Over and over now he dreams of his bride to be
Repeatedly, he dreams of his future bride.
Over and over he prays that the life they find is what he hoped it would be.
He prays for the life they envision together.
Through the good and bad he stayed to make a stand
Despite challenges, he perseveres to take a stand.
Things are never easy in a virgin land
Living in a new, undeveloped territory is never easy.
Gettin' every day proud as he can be
Every day, he takes pride in his accomplishments.
Caring and providing for his family
He cares for and provides for his family.
Year after year he works to give them everything he can
Year after year, he works hard to give them the best.
Year after year he works so he'll never have to be someone else's man.
His labor is to ensure he remains independent.
Nobody knows his name
His identity continues to be unknown.
Starting it over is never the same
Commencing anew doesn't recreate the past experiences.
Nobody knows his name
People may eventually become aware of his name.
They just might someday
There's a chance that his identity may be revealed in the future.
