Twin Flame

Written by multi award winning songwriter; Connie Kis Andersen, GONE WISHIN' is a poignant track with a powerful message for peace.  

Simplistic in its production and delivery but complicated in its aspiration, given today’s turbulent world.  

"After thinking long and hard about what song to release, I thought it timely to put this song out to radio, especially with the turmoil our society currently faces.  I am acutely aware of how this present-day unrest will affect our children and future generations, so I wanted to say something through song”, says Connie Kis.

This stand out acoustic track needs no bells and whistles in its production to portray a commanding message that needs to be heard. 
GONE WISHIN’ is track 12 on Connie Kis's album; Naked Under the Radar.

Gone Wishin’


Saw a little girl
Sitting all alone
In another world
That was all her own
A saddened look
Was in her distant eyes
And when I asked her what was wrong
She looked at me and then began to cry

She said…

	I’ve gone wishin’
	For my Mother
	I’ve gone wishin’
	That God will ease her pain
	I’ve gone wishin’
	For my Brother
	I’ve gone wishin’
	That we will see his face again

Saw a young boy
Throwing sticks and stones
Looking to destroy
What was not his own
A hopeless look
Showed through his angry eyes
And when I asked him what was wrong
He turned to me and then began to cry

He said…

	I’ve gone wishin’
	For my Father
	I’ve gone wishin’
	That God will ease his pain
	I’ve gone wishin’
	For all my brothers
	I’ve gone wishin’
	That we will see them once again






        	And as he walked away
		I recalled the days
		We used to sing and chant
		About giving peace a chance
		But now I’m sad to say, oh so sad to say
		That song aint sung today

So …
	I’ve gone wishin’
	For all our mothers
	I’ve gone wishin’
	That God will ease their pain
	I’ve gone wishin’
	For all our fathers
	I’ve gone wishin’
	That they will see their sons again
	

And I’ve gone wishin’
For each other
And for a new world 
A world that is free
From tears and tyranny…
