This is a song I wrote for Gia Carangi. She was a top model in the late 70s who lived hard and died young. She had so much heart!

Gia

 

Sultry, pouting, smiling.

Oh what a pretty face

Wild, untamed at seventeen

Hiding under your veil of lace.

 

Oh Oh Oh Gia Gia

Why did you have to leave?

Oh Oh Oh Gia Gia

What were you hiding

            under your sleeve?

 

Sadness flowing from your eyes

Tears rolling down your cheeks

Cameras flashing all around

Sensuous body for all to see.

 

Oh Oh Oh, Gia, Gia

Love, just a fleeting touch.

Oh Oh Oh Gia, Gia

Life was such a rush.

 

You gave us such happiness

While your heart was broke

Darkness and light followed you

As your own hand wrote.

 

Oh Oh Oh, Gia, Gia

You kept your heart locked up

Oh Oh Oh Gia, Gia

You were already on top.

 

Oh Oh Oh, Gia, Gia

Spread your wings and fly

Oh Oh Oh Gia, Gia

The stars are on your side.

 

Oh Oh Oh, Gia, Gia

Oh Oh Oh Gia, Gia

I saw the movie Gia based on Gia...why did things go so wrong for the beauty? Well she's with the angels now spinning threads from her hair to keep Hollywood together...it'll take a lot of thread, for it is such a mess...lovely tribute, Dayvid...

Love and Spiritual Fame,
Sage

A nice tribute, Dayvid. I can think of a few others that your sentiments could apply to. Thanks for sharing. Love and peace,

A lovely tribute in song. I started to feel like weeping nearing the end; as though, as long as you kept her alive in song, she would be fine. Thank you for sharing this one, Dayvid.

I am looking for the voice file Dayvid
...her photo is beautiful & your song is too.
it is a weighted condition when sorrow
fills any heart with it's darkness...

She sure had that alluring look that would make your heart spin. Great song for a gal that took the wrong road. Sad.

I could imagine this set to the tune of "ah Leah" by Donny Iris. Great song that was. Cool lyrics here David.
