The Bonny
Build Your Bonny: A Song of Love, Loss, and Life
Lyrics
I dreamed a dream of the bonny
I had a dream about someone or something called "the bonny."
A bonfire, big and high
There was a large and tall bonfire in my dream.
A fire so big
The fire was so massive that its flames illuminated the entire sky.
That the flames light up the sky
I dreamed a dream of the bonny
I had another dream about "the bonny."
In a vision in the back of my eye
This time, it was a vision in the back of my eye.
And when the walls came down
When certain barriers or obstacles fell apart,
It was the only thing that kept me alive
"The bonny" was the only thing that kept me alive.
You can build the bonny
You have the ability to create or achieve something beautiful and special.
I can tell by the look in your eye
I can see it in your eyes.
For the people that you loved and lost
This is for the people you loved and lost, but couldn't say goodbye to.
That you never got to tell goodbye
Believe and build your bonny
Have faith and create your own "bonny."
Gonna never know unless you try
You won't know unless you make an effort.
One life is a short time
Life is short,
And no one knows where you go when you die
and the destination after death is unknown.
Go on and build the bonny
Continue to build and create your own beautiful thing.
Build the bonfire big and high
Make the bonfire large and tall.
A fire so big
The fire should be so grand that its flames light up the sky.
That the flames light up the sky
Believe and build your bonny
Keep believing and building your own "bonny."
Gonna never know unless you try
You won't know unless you try.
One life is a short time
Life is short,
And no one knows where you go when you die
and the destination after death is unknown.
Go on and build the bonny
Continue to build and create your own beautiful thing.
Build the bonfire big and high
Make the bonfire large and tall.
A fire so big
The fire should be so grand that its flames light up the sky.
That the flames light up the sky
Believe and build your bonny
Keep believing and building your own "bonny."
Gonna never know unless you try
You won't know unless you try.
One life is a short time
Life is short,
And no one knows where you go when you die
and the destination after death is unknown.
For the people that you loved and lost
This is for the people you loved and lost, but couldn't say goodbye to.
That you never got to tell goodbye
Stand tall while the walls fall down
Stand strong while facing challenges, even if it brings a mix of joy and sorrow.
With a smile and a tear in your eye
Do so with a smile and tears in your eyes.
