Gerard

Gerard (/ˈɛrəd/ or US /əˈrɑːrd/; Old French: [dʒerɑrd]) is a male forename of Old Germanic origin, variations of which exist in many Germanic and Romance languages. Like many other early Germanic names, it is dithematic, consisting of two meaningful constituents put together. In this case, those constituents are gari > ger- (meaning 'spear') and -hard (meaning 'hard/strong/brave').

Common forms of the name are Gerard (English, Scottish, Irish, Dutch, Polish and Catalan); Gerrard (English, Scottish, Irish); Gerardo (Italian, Portuguese and Spanish); Gherardo (Italian); Gherardi (Northern Italian, now only a surname); Gérard (variant forms Girard and Guérard, now only surnames, French); Gearóid (Irish); Gerhardt and Gerhart/Gerhard/Gerhardus (Afrikaans, Dutch, and German); Gellért (Hungarian); Gerardas (Lithuanian) and Gerards/Ģirts (Latvian). A few abbreviated forms are Gerry and Jerry (English); Gerd (German) and Gert (Afrikaans and Dutch); Gerrit (Afrikaans and Dutch); Gertjie (Afrikaans); Geert (Dutch), Γεράρδης (Greece) and Жоро (Bulgarian).

    92 Days Of Rain

    by: Corey Hart

    [Oo-o]
    [Oo-o]
    Devastation in the gardens
    A virgin beast betrayed cries out in need
    What have you done to my existence?
    Where evolution now evolves from greed
    When the moon above the jungle
    Wipes the final tear from heaven's eyes
    Who will save the children? The children cry
    (92 days of rain) falling down on me
    There will be
    (92 days of rain) driving us to our knees
    (Wash away the hunger)
    Baby won't you heel our souls
    (God looks back in anger at the roads we've chose)
    O, I will always believe in the light
    Sun's gonna shine
    I know it will one day, I know
    From the bible like Noah before us
    Where today march all the prophet's men?
    Selfish my compassion
    All my reasons, all my ambivalence
    Tell me why I turn my face
    For shelter by the easy shore?
    Tell my why all this crying I ignore?
    (92 days of rain) falling down on me
    There will be
    (92 days of rain) driving us to our knees
    (Wash away the hunger)
    Baby won't you heal our souls
    God looks back in anger at the roads we've chose
    (92 days of rain) falling down on me
