Can you dance out onto the window ledge
And wipe my blood from the edge?
Calm me down, bring me inside
Pour me tea, and watch me cry

Cianna, Cianna
You’ve got to believe
The special man
I used to be
I used to smile
I used to dance
You’ve got to believe
That I’m worth the chance

Can you forgive the darkest sins
Of lost and lonely, drunken men?
Can you hold my hand and show the way?
Cos all I know are yesterdays

Cianna, Cianna
You’ve got to believe
The gentle soul
That I used to be
I’m always there
For all my friends
A loyalty strong
Until the end

This isn’t a joke, this isn’t a dream
This is one life for what that means
I don’t know if you understand
But if you don’t then I’m a marked man

Cianna, Cianna
You’ve got to believe
And pour your faith
Right into me
I know I’m asking
Far too much
But I swear I need
Your healing touch
 
Cianna, Cianna
You’ve got to believe
The special man
I used to be
I used to smile
How I use to dance
Please take my hand
And give me a chance

What’s your word?

Window Ledge Romances and Brown-Eyed Saviours

Thanks for visiting my profile. I enjoy creating tracks in any style that inspires me. Of course, I enjoy listening to everyone's tracks.

I play around with guitar, bass and keyboards, been writing lyrics and making music with computers since Commodore 64 days.    My dream is that a "real" artist will like one of my songs and perform it for a wider audience, someday.

barnap is a passionate musician who has loved making music since childhood. In 2023, he started producing his own tracks, combining elements from genres such as ambient, downtempo, experimental electronic, and spoken word. His goal is to create music that sparks meaningful conversations.
Follow his journey!

He is taking part in the ThinkingMusicFestival.

Gino Di Nunno is a 66 year old guy from Greensburg, Pennsylvania. He can't sing, but since starting writing and recording his songs in 2016, he is improving. He is obsessed with Rock Progressivo Italiano, Orchestral music (Beethoven, Mahler, Shostakovich), Jethro Tull, Mercyful Fate/King Diamond, and Philosopy. Gino started playing guitar in 1976, but two years later he suffered a left-hand accident and lost 3 and 2/3 fingers (He also started dabbling with piano in 2016, though he doesn't consider himself adept he knows enough to make it sound good). He did not start playing again (as a left-hander) until 1980, and with very long practice sessions, he was able to start a band, taking the hard road by writing original material with his brothers and a few vocalists, where they played everything from Punk, Blues, and a mix of Progressive Rock and Metal.

The band of brothers decided to end their music pursuit in the early 90's to catch up with life. Gino decided to give music another try in the early 2000's and didn't start recording and releasing music until 2016, releasing versions of albums on Soundcloud where he had no idea what he was doing; however, each album saw improvement (yes...even his vocals) by learning through trial and error experimentation. 

Gino said the best advice he ever received was when a guy told him, "if you can't sing, make sure your lyrics are good so people will focus on them instead of your singing." Gino writes deep lyrics dealing with life struggles and predicaments, yet always with a bit of hope. He prefers to write small symphonies within a song, with lots of changes, added dynamics, and a breaking away from familiar forms and structures. He realizes he is not unique in breaking new ground, and that aging and long practice sessions has given him (at times) an aching right wrist which has taken away the speed he once had, and even with his spotty vocals his only request is that you dive deep into the songs because he insists something beautiful can be discovered.  (Antonella Gaspari)

To celebrate 2000, I took a year off to write songs, novels, plays, and stories - and I've been doing that since. At the end of my first year, I won first prize in the USA Songwriting Contest in the Lyric Category for 'Drum Machines and Beauty Queens.' This led to co-writing songs with many excellent musicians, including those represented in songs posted here. 

More recently, I was one of seven finalists in the Crisis Lyric Category of the 2021 UK Songwriting Contest for 'Lockdown Blues,' and one of nine nominees in the 2021 International Song Awards with 'Didn't the River Know' and 'Blue and Gold.'

For the past two years, I've been collaborating with many talented musicians on Kompoz. I release many of these songs here and compile the best into albums released under Captain Stormfield's Trip on Spotify and other platforms (see links below).
