Golden Cage                                                                                                                          G.Burda

 

She always dreamt her heartfelt fairytale

 

Built crystal castles into cloudy skies

 

Followed the rainbow towards wonderland

 

Her gloried prince she there would find

 

 

He was always meant to be peculiar

 

A heroes life he had in mind

 

In shining armor, what a prince he’d give

 

So bright, so handsome, noble breed

 

Ref.

 

Nightingale sing, take to the sky

 

Force open the bars of your golden cage

 

Nightingale sing, take to the sky

 

Remember the charms, you just ought to fly

 

 

Their journeys met like they would be destined

 

Such ardent longing, they called it love

 

Sweet little children and a house called home

 

She felt protected but never warm

Ref.

 

Nightingale sing, take to the sky

 

Force open the bars of your golden cage

 

Nightingale sing, take to the sky

 

Remember the charms, you just ought to fly

4  Letter Word                                                                                            G.Burda

 

 

What is love, what are they telling us about it
Is it just  shivers of lust, I doubt it
Is it physical, a hasty bang,
Just score, chalk up, then hit and run
What is love and can we live without it
 

Have you ever seen your daughter smile
At the phone call of a friend who  has’nt called a while
Have you ever smelled the ocean mist
The prickle of a salty kiss
What is love and can we live without it

Ref.
 

A 4 letter word beyond all words
A 4 letter word beyond all meaning

 

What is love, what are they telling us about it
Is it just  shivers of lust, I doubt it
Is it suggestive, is it constraint,
Is it a must have, Is it a game
What is love and can we live without it

 

Did you ever see a sunrise through the mist
From a summit that you climbed
Did you ever feel the joy and bliss
Of a child fulfilled its greatest wish
What is love and can we live without it
 

Ref.
 

Just a 4 letter word beyond all words
A 4 letter word beyond all meaning ……

Providence 7

City of Dreams                                                                                    G.Burda

City of Dreams, City of Providence
Gate to a better world, land of the free

They came from a darker place, searching for shelter here
Freedom of faith, they  found it with you

Ref.

Choked by the English throne, denouncing allegiance, you always rebound
Emerging from civil war, renouncing the slavery, you always rebound

City of Dreams, City of the Rennaisance
Set on the ocean shores bridging both worlds
They escaped poverty, in Ireland and Italy
Their hopes for prosperity not always came true

 

City of Dreams, City of Providence
Gate to a better world, land of the free
City of Dreams, City of the Rennaisance
Set on the ocean shores, bridging both worlds
 

Ref.
 

Flourished with diamonds, abandoned by the industry, you always rebound
Home to the family, suburban hypocrisy, but you always rebound !

Playing my Guitar                                                                                                                G.Burda

Here it is again, it stems from deep within my brain
This strange and longing kind of sound, it comes from nowhere
Though it’s always been around

It sprang from fear and hope and pain
Has been compagnion, muse and friend
For all these years of near insanity it stayed around
Remaining source of my humanity

Ref.
                                                                           

Gate to a brighter world, which opens up on its own terms
Got no key, no code, no word, all it takes is
Playing my guitar
                                                                             

Gate to a brighter world, which opens up on its own terms
Got no key, no code, no word, all it takes is
Playing my guitar

 

Playing my guitar clears up the air, can see so far
Feels like the rainbow after rain, trenched by a sunbeam
Drying teardrops of a friend

 

We keep on trying it again
Just common people, lovers, friends
Treating our self- inflicted scars, which for some moments fade
While playing my guitar
