The Gateway (Poem)

As the sky changes in colour
and the sun falls behind a silky veil,
golden rays break through
the parting marbled clouds,
like spotlights onto a stage,
enticing and exposing the listless sea below.
The light still constantly changes,
as a crowd gathers to wait by the water's edge.

Filled with excitement and expectancy
in the dusky stillness.
Then, rapid flashes of brilliance
push back, even further, the parted clouds,
soon followed by the sound of a distant drone
and the beating of wings,
as the wind begins to ruffle the lifeless sea.
Now, slowly descending
on dazzling rays of light,
Now, slowly descending
on dazzling rays of light,
the time has come
for the return of
the heavenly mortals.

Heavenly, so heavenly, heavenly, so heavenly
Heavenly, so heavenly, heavenly, so heavenly.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 




Heavenly Mortals

Words and music Kevan Koya

 

Verse

You don't want much, you always give more
You don't like cruelty, and to hell with war
You believe in peace, and you march for love
You look to the sun, and to your god above
Now we stand amazed, as you ascend the burning sky
You know we love you, and we know you'll really try

Chorus

We believe in you, heavenly mortals
We can touch you now, so heavenly mortal
Tell me is your god a god of love?
Tell me is there heaven up above?

Verse

You fill our lives, with only good things
Your voices carry, on ancient winds
Your world is vast, there's no boundaries
You cast your shadows, over land and seas
On dazzling rays, you come pushing through the clouds
You know we love you, so please take away our doubt

Chorus

We believe in you, heavenly mortals
We can touch you now, so heavenly mortal
Tell me is there something we can do?
Tell me is there more for me and you?

Mid 8

Everytime we close our eyes
We move a little closer
To those things we try to find and believe
Save me..........

Chorus

We believe in you, heavenly mortals
We can touch you now, so heavenly mortal
Do you have a secret we can share?
Do you have a plan or don't you care?
We can touch you now, so heavenly mortals
We believe in you, so heavenly mortal
Tell me is your god a god of love?
Tell me is there heaven up above?
Heavenly mortals, heavenly mortals
Heavenly mortals, heavenly mortals.

 




Burning Shore

Words and music Kevan Koya

Verse

The waters peaceful 'n' so calm
It glistens and sparkles
The day is coming to an end
It looks so beautiful
People climb the highest cliffs
'n' dive into a crimson sea
Lovers embrace the golden rays
an end to a perfect day

Chorus

I'm standing on a burning shore
Standing on a burning shore
Looking out to sea
Covered by a light
I'm covered in a sunset sky
The colours changing as the sunlight fades
A little more
The sky is changing while I'm standing here
On a burning shore

Verse

There's still a warmth to the evening sun
Now slowly descending
'n' shadows stretch across the bay
It looks so heavenly
Seaguls skim the blood red seas
Then rise up to catch the breeze
The sunset bows in final display
An end to a perfect day

Chorus

I'm standing on a burning shore
Standing on a burning shore
Looking out to sea
Covered by a light
I'm covered in a sunset sky
Standing on a burning shore
I'm standing on a burning shore
Looking out to sea
Covered by a light
I'm covered in a sunset sky
The colours changing as the sunlight fades
A little more
The sky is changing while I'm standing here
On a burning shore

Burning Shore

 

 

Space Girl

Words and music Kevan Koya

Space girl

 

Verse

She's got a smile in her eyes
She's got a light in her soul
She has rhythm and grace
My girl from outer space
Coloured gems in her hair
That fall down to her waist
She has a love in her heart
My girl from outer space

Chorus

You're my space girl
Dance the cosmic sky
You're my space girl
With moon glitter on your eyes
You're my space girl
Shining through the night
You're my space girl
My only star that shines so bright
You're my space, space girl

Verse

She can calm any storm
By the gesture of face
She's got a beauty inside
My girl from outer space
She can raise all the love
Like the rise of the sea
With her hand on my heart
I love my space face girl

Chorus

Mid 8

As the day light slowly fades
And the moon hangs low in the sky
Oh here she come now
My girl from outer space
'n' out of all the stars that shine
She's the one that shines the brightest
Makes her way through the night with ease
She makes her way to me

Chorus

You're my space girl
Dance the cosmic sky
You're my space girl
With moon glitter on your eyes
You're my space girl
Shining through the night
You're my space girl
My only star that shines so bright
You're my space, space girl
You're my space, space girl
You're my space, space, space, space girl
My girl
