Gone Forever

A New Zealand Reggae styled song of Love, close bonds, connection, kinship, and marriage, inspired by and dedicated to my beloved family Jana and Colin to commemorate their wedding! You are magnificent individuals whom I admire, and an exceptional couple whom I cherish, I Love You both! This song is for You, a celebratory token of our connection despite our distance from each other.

As backing vocalists we have Brenda and Glenn (Thank You both!)
With a heart-gushingly awesome cover art design by Em! (Thank You! www.emmascottdesign.co )
Thank You Cole for Your enthusiasm about the project,
And to everyone that has been keeping my spirit alive this year!

Half of the song is written in the beautiful Maori language (or my best attempt at writing and singing in Maori at least!), which turned out to be a really fun and edifying process - I thank the Maori culture for its depth and beauty that we have tried to honour in this piece.

There's also a cool colourful visualizer to go with the song that You can find over on Youtube ( https://youtu.be/74WxAAAMBxM )

Without further ado, and before my adieu, the Lyrics:

≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈≈

Marena (Marriage - Wedding)

You move dark clouds
With a motion so breezy
Make the rain-
Wanna end with a -bow
You're my Love
And the feeling is so easy
Where after-
Always ends with a -glow

What a beautiful day to say I do
What a wonderful way to say I Love You
There's no better pair to make it all come true
Nothing, Nowhere, No one compares...
Ka Mutu Koe! (You're Awesome!)

Haere mai, hokoi whanau (welcome beloved family/friends)
Ki tenei marena kanapa (to this gleaming wedding)
Me te rearea, ka mutu pea (how beautiful, how wonderful)
Tenei marena kanapa (this brilliant marriage)

What a beautiful day to say I do
What a wonderful way to say I Love You
There's no better pair to make it all come true
Nothing, Nowhere, No one compares...
Ka Mutu Koe! (You're Awesome!)

I roto i to Manawa
I te hau kainga ahau
(In Your heart I feel at home)

What a beautiful day to say I do
What a wonderful way to say I Love You
There's no better pair to make it all come true
Nothing, Nowhere, No one compares to You!
Ka Mutu Koe! (You're Awesome!)

Wake up and yawn a, Jana, yawn a little
Love is callin', Colin, callin', for us to fall in
Wait up cuz we're gonna wanna get our fill
Love is all in, all in, all in, raise a glass to the 'fall-in'
