Geraldine and John

See the bright red sportscar, see the happy couple,

See their clothes so white and their skin so pink,

See them playin’ squash, gotta keep their bodies supple,

Now they kiss goodnight, but tomorrow they’ll be thinkin’,

all day long, all day long,

Chorus

Geraldine and John, see the happy couple, so inseparable,

and the beat goes on, and for better or for worse,

they are married but of course, not to each other…

2

Geraldine and John gotta keep it under cover,

see they scheme and sweat, but it’s all worthwhile,

now he goes back home to a wife who’s not a lover,

now her eyes are wet, but tomorrow she’ll be smilin’,

all day long, all day long…

Chorus

Geraldine and John, see the happy couple, so insuperable,

and the beat goes on, and for better or for worse,

they are married but of course, not to each other…

and the feeling’s getting stronger,

that they can’t go on much longer,

somewhere down the track, something has to crack…

3

Geraldine just packed all her things and went to mother,

but Johnny seems okay, happy wife, happy home,

see the scar on his face from the day he met her brother,

but nothing hurts no more, nothing more than being lonely,

all day long, all day long…

Chorus

This song is about my view on Friendship…

Real Friendship is about loving someone for their intrinsic value.

When I think about friendship, I feel togetherness in soul’s caress,

When I think about friendship, I feel security,

When I think about friendship, I see someone who’ll stay, even if I radically change my way,

Someone loyal like a knight, someone warm like a fire on a winter’s night,

Someone who’ll stay, even if I radically change my way,

someone loving you in spite of strife, beyond the border of this earthly life,

Maybe you’re busy right now
goin’after you goals…

Maybe you’re feelin’ so low
and there’s no one around…

Maybe you’re thinkin’ and thinkin’ and
you can’t find a way out…

but whatever you do, whatever you feel, whatever you think,
just remember to embody the transcendant, is why we’re here.(2x)

So focus on your breath and watch the thoughts on the screen of your mind,
in order to find, the silent observer, who is already kind.(2x)

This song is purely about enlightenment: because nothing outside can ever give you, what you’re lookin’ for. IT IS ALREADY THERE INSIDE OF YOU, THE SILENT OBSERVER WATCHING THE THOUGHTS ON YOUR MIND GO BY, LIKE CLOUDS AGAINST A BLUE SKY.
I’m NOT saying that thinking is not important, it is: to solve problems, BUT IT IS NOT WHAT WE ARE.
I can really feel a sense of transcendence. Can you feel it?

My way to happiness? stay true and loyal to yourself

The church said a soul is worth more than the whole wide world,

with my brothers and my sisters one big family,

I thought we’d stay together for eternity,

But when I didn’t fit into society, always ruled by fear and insecurity,

cause they taught me to see, feelings as a part of my souls identity,

and with the lack of insight and bigotry,

they just turned their back on me,

at first I took it just quietly, before I started to fight back intellectually,

keeping my integrity…

so I stayed loyal to myself, loyal to myself, caus’ I knew I was worth it,

learned to listen to myself, instead of everyone else, had the power to decide it… (2x)

Lonely and Betrayed (GerBard)

A song about about old convictions…

I felt lonely and betrayed, even after I’d regained real consciousness;

kept thinkin’ I just wasn’t heard, although I had sincerely prayed;

listening at the altar to a word, that didn’t come from God.

So this was not enough, I still feel the anger and I’m about to get rough,

but if you are a Father, then why did you let me go astray?

So this was not enough, to get through to you,

but if you are a Father or is this not even true?

Although I had been thinkin’ in, found consciousness within,

my mind wants to hold on,

to views that have proved wrong…

This is in my view one of Gordon’s best and most spiritual songs…
