In this heartrending ballad, Cinnamon serves up a poignant metaphor of life and loss. The 'bonny' is a grand bonfire, symbolizing one's existence - it's bright, fleeting, and can be seen by all. It's built for those we've lost and never got to bid farewell to. The song urges us to embrace the brevity of life and take risks ('you'll never know unless you try'). It also touches upon the mystery of death - nobody knows what happens post-expiry! So, while we're here, let's build our bonfires high and bright. Let them light up the night sky with our stories. And when life knocks us down? Stand tall with a smile on your face and a tear in your eye because that's what makes you human!
The Bonny
Lyrics
I dreamed a dream of the bonny
A bonfire, big and high
A fire so big
That the flames light up the sky
I dreamed a dream of the bonny
In a vision in the back of my eye
And when the walls came down
It was the only thing that kept me alive
You can build the bonny
I can tell by the look in your eye
For the people that you loved and lost
That you never got to tell goodbye
Believe and build your bonny
Gonna never know unless you try
One life is a short time
And no one knows where you go when you die
Go on and build the bonny
Build the bonfire big and high
A fire so big
That the flames light up the sky
Believe and build your bonny
Gonna never know unless you try
One life is a short time
And no one knows where you go when you die
Go on and build the bonny
Build the bonfire big and high
A fire so big
That the flames light up the sky
Believe and build your bonny
Gonna never know unless you try
One life is a short time
And no one knows where you go when you die
For the people that you loved and lost
That you never got to tell goodbye
Stand tall while the walls fall down
With a smile and a tear in your eye
