Story behind the song
This was my first Internet collaboration on Tonos which has since gone defunct. Lyricist is very talented from Medesto, CA and the two singers come from the Seattle (male) and Detroit (female) areas.
Lyrics
In a mem'ry grandma told me I first heard his name, Then later that night, on moonlit wings he came. And I knew then that my life would never be the same. For adventures now await My golden-winged phoenix and me. In dreamy clouds we drifted to save each maiden fair, Wherever storms grew dark, my magic bird was there, And I knew then that my life would never be as rare As adventures that await My golden-winged phoenix and me. Soaring through skies On each mystic day, Foiling all villianous schemes, We became heroes Of legend's might. My golden-winged phoenix and me. Lost in the stars On each silv'ry night, Armored with fabrics of dreams, We saved strange worlds And set planets right. My golden-winged phoenix and me. On every road we travel'd, I grew more bold and brave, No peril that existed was one I couldn't save, For faith in my own courage was what he always gave, And life's adventures await My golden-winged phoenix and me. Now that I am older my phoenix bird has flown Far off to other heroes who need him for their own, But his strength inside me tells me that I am not alone, And adventures still await My golden-winged phoenix and me. Soaring through skies On each mystic day, Foiling all villianous schemes, We became heroes Of legend's might. My golden-winged phoenix and me. Lost in the stars On each silv'ry night, Armored with fabrics of dreams, We saved strange worlds And set planets right. My golden-winged phoenix and me.
