Lyrics - Back At The Start and Burnished Gold
cheynne murphy
Back at the Start
There’s a wind racing through the depths of your soul, tearing away the debris so old,
And you can’t understand your identity has blown away
Moving through the night we sleep all alone,
memories like stitches, in dreams they are sewn,
clothes so worn, underneath you are naked and cold
Though the walls are made of stone, there’s a fire inside,
we gather round the flames like the bugs to the light,
its comforting to know that we’re out of the cold tonight
Tonight, so where to begin?
We’ll cry, sharing meaning,
And if it comes from the heart,
We’ll be back at the start again
Song-lines we walk leading us home,
Tracks undefined but they’re feeding our souls,
Hoping to find, a grace that is kind and free
Tonight, so where to begin?
We cry, sharing meaning,
And if it comes from the heart,
We’ll be back at the start again
Though the walls are made of stone, there’s a fire inside,
We gather round the flames like the bugs to the light,
Its comforting to know that we’re out of the cold tonight
Tonight, so where to begin
So cry, and share the meaning
And we’ll die, and come back again
If it comes from the heart,
We’ll be back at the start again
Burnished Gold
Burnished gold, burnished gold eyes like fire, marking my soul
There’s an echo in the canyon, from a time long ago,
Down by the river, where the old stories flowed,
Plants were the medicine, and the animals know,
Signs like a roadmap always showing where to go
Burnished gold, burnished gold eyes like fire, marking my soul
Burnished gold, burnished gold, runs through the valleys, carries me home, burnished gold
She sits by the water, her raven hair flows,
He sits down beside her with his feathers and his bow,
They ride on the wild horse, across prairies they roam,
Seduced by a great spirit,
A connection that grows
A connection that grows
Burnished gold, burnished gold eyes like fire, marking my soul
Burnished gold, burnished gold, runs through the valleys, carries me home, burnished gold
