Song information
This song is a true story of a love that I found many years ago and the internal conflict within my first toxic on-off marriage.
During one of the many separations of that marriage, I was captivated by a Finnish woman named 'Taina', whose presence had a profound effect on me. Taina was a vibrant, free-spirited individual with 'Fire in her Soul' who brought unexpected joy and connection to my life at a time that I desperately wanted..



‘Oh Taina’ is a melancholic yet beautiful exploration of unexpected love, cultural connection, and the difficult choices we sometimes face in relationships.

The song concludes with a verse in Finnish, in my attempt to connect with her culture. This final verse seems to express gratitude for the love shared and suggests that the memories will endure, even if the relationship didn't.

OH TAINA
Lyrics - Gerald G
©Copyright 2024

Verse 1:
Northern lights in her eyes
Taina, she took me by surprise
A Finn with fire in her soul
Making me feel so whole

Verse 2: 
Forward thinking, free and bold
Her touch leaves me out in the cold
Trapped between what could be
And the vows binding me

Chorus:
Chemistry like I've never known
A connection to the bone
But the ring on my hand
And the past making demands
Taina, why'd you have to come along?

Bridge:
My past is calling, wanting me back
Present and future under attack
Taina's love, a bittersweet dream
Nothing's simple as it seems

Repeat Chorus

Outro
Kiitos rakkaudesta, jonka saimme jakaa 

Muistot kestavat, eivat koskaan lakaa 

Sydamessani kannan sua aina 

Yhteinen tarina, ikuisesti vaikka haina

(Rough English translation)
Thank you for the love we got to share 

Memories endure, they'll never fade 

I'll carry you in my heart always 

Our story together, eternal even if apart

I have been through something similar.
I like the story telling in your music. And nice vocals too.
Is that a picture of her? She looks stunning. Mo

Love it.  Brilliantly written and played. I'm a rocker at heart but let me tell you when this music came on my radio i always turned it up nor did I stay away from bars that played it.  Beautiful story

Always enjoy your unique brand of story-telling in combination with 80s vibed power rock.
They DO "come along" don't they? The ultimate test of our character when they do...
Another good one Gerald!
