about

An anthem dedicated to my home town of Manchester, CT, USA - City Of Village Charm!

lyrics

At the height of the day
When the old church bells ring
At the top of the Main street in town
There’s a bustle of life
On the walk down below
In the City of Village Charm
The City of Village Charm

There’s a proud history
By the Old Cheney Mills
The Silk City we all once were known
Where the Union and Keeney Mills
Were clear across town
In the City of Village Charm
The City of Village Charm

(chorus)
From the top of Case Mountain
You’ll see ‘cross the land
Neighborhoods, commerce, clear open space, farms
Brooks, rivers, reservoirs
Lakes, hollows, ponds
In the City of Village Charm
The City of Village Charm

Hackmatack, Hockanum
Salters and Globe
Porter and Case Reservoir
Hop Brook and Folly
The Bigelow Brook
In the City of Village Charm
The City of Village Charm

(chorus)
Talk a walk through downtown
All the faces you’ll see
Eyes hopeful, determined to keep keeping on
I proudly hang my heart up by its string
In the City of Village Charm
The City of Village Charm
