»Songbird With A Broken Wing«

by Andreas Buchholz

Songbird in the skies above,
Roaming underneath the one
Burning, bearing, blessing sun,
Sing your songs of loss and love,
Tunes of seas, dear, dark and deep,
Magic lights that we can't keep,
Tragic nights that make us weep.

Songbird in the skies above,
You're the first and you're the last
Bird of future, bird of past.
Sing your songs of loss and love,
Tunes of glory, tunes of pain,
Shining ray and driving rain.
We just wait and we'll sustain.

Songbird in the skies above,
Bliss is resting in your heart.
Holy spirits shall not part,
Sing your songs of loss and love.
We adore you, pray for you,
May these streaming dreams come true
In your heaven bright and blue.

  •  John Paragreen: "Hi Andreas, good title, for me I'd rework this and end each verse on your title, this would make it more song like,the drawing point here is (broken wing)yet it hardly gets a mentioned,wing is a great word to rhyme. I try to get the strongest lines to open with,these are great Magic lights that we can't keep, Tragic nights that make us weep. good luck,john"
