Godot's orchestrated theme set to my original lyrics and sung by me. :)

=========================

DOWNLOAD AN MP3 OF THE SONG WITHOUT THE HARSH ECHO HERE: http://www.mediafire.com/?4y4uji56aaddjb6

=========================

I've always considered this song one of the most gorgeous musical pieces I've ever heard, so I wanted to try to write lyrics that reflected his story of pain and loss in an appropriate way. (I hope I succeeded!) I really do not do this beautiful song justice, but I hope you enjoy nonetheless.

Sidenote: This was recorded with my old mic before I got a good one, so quality isn't as great as I'd like...but if the echo bothers you, just pretend it's being sung in an open-mic jazz club. ;)

Gorgeous artwork by the talented Rem of www.blackmoontides.com. Please pay her art a visit!

[[LYRICS:]]

The fragrance is dark, bitter
I feel all the sadness of the world
In my soul as I drink down the pain
I close my eyes and hear your voice out in the distance
I see your sweet face out in the rain

Seems so real
I just want to reach out and embrace you
Only if for a while

I flee to a memory
Of your arms around me
Of your smile, your beauty, your love
Cling to me now
Murmur my name as we walk hand in hand and
Release this pain in me

Your smile gave me strength, splendor
Your voice filled my heart with warmth and joy
When I met you, you lit up my world
You changed my life, showed me the beauty living around me
Never had I known what love meant until you

But you're gone
And nothing's the same without your presence
The color has drained away

How I miss your innocence
How I long for your tenderness
How I yearn for my world to return
Oh if only I could go back and be there when you needed me
Maybe you'd be here

[piano break]

The bitterness burns
Oh how I yearn
Scalding... Haunting...

Oh, can you feel it burn?

Everything's so meaningless
All the world's full of emptiness
Life exists only there in my dreams

Now I stand here
Wishing you'd somehow return to my arms
But the silence brings me back

I must move ahead
Even though you're gone
Even though fate's thrown me into a world full of grey

  • I'm probably the only one to complain about the echo, and even the MP3 file still has the echo.

  • I personally think the echo makes the video better. It sounds nice... ^_^

  • i like the echo in the vid makes it sound nice but thats my opinion :)

  • These lyrics express Godot perfectly.

  • your music is so beautiful your voice is amazing and your lyrics are perfect!!!! keep it up girl you have a whole world full of talent! also if you feel like it maybe gumshoe's theme gotta love the underdogs right?

  • @blaaaaakeee Well, the coffee is often used as a parallel to the dark truth of the world as seen through his visor. In once case, he takes a sip of coffee and remarks "the brew is bitter today... like my destiny". When he gives Pearl a cup, he says to Phoenix that he "added plenty of milk and sugar" to hide the bitterness from such a young child. The coffee symbolizes Godot himself: smooth, fragrant, sophisticated... but bitter, and strong. It's all metaphorical, really.

  • godot is best belmont

  • Wow. Just wow. That's some brilliant work.

  • Ace Attorney 5 Announced! FUCKYEA!

  • @steun91 The first pun is in reference to the coffee, how Godot likes his bitter, not sweet.
