Stratovarius - Forever BG
Yeah, it kinda happened again. This time the original is in English (but I also did a Norwegian version :D )
Maybe it's the music. It does strange things to my brain. Sometimes the melody just makes things appear. If I'm lucky, they are (somewhat) sensible XD
Also, this isn't really perfect.... but I kinda like some parts a lot. Also, it's much more rhymed than the original. That's how I write poems. I'm physically unable to do it in any other way, I just cannot bring myself to it (even if often I don't write a verse the best way I can just because I want it to rhyme, my literature teacher tried to teach me out of it - quite unsuccessfully, obviously). Also, it's quite literal in some places (it just sounded quite good), in others it's not. Also, it's 100% singable. Because this is how I do stuff.
Original:
I stand alone in the darkness
The winter of my life came so fast
Memories go back to childhood
To days I still recall
Oh, how happy I was then
There was no sorrow, there was no pain
Walking through the green fields
Sunshine in my eyes
I'm still there, everywhere
I'm the dust in the wind
I'm the star in the northern sky
I never stayed anywhere
I'm the wind in the trees
Would you wait for me forever
Will you wait for me forever
"Forever" by Stratovarius
Yeah. So I may be doing this every now and then. When the melody calls for it :)
