Turtledove

LYRICS POSTED

A "Turtle Dove" duet performed by Jac and me. Shows the story of Tidus and Yuna, and how they'll always be together no matter what.

We would greatly appreciate any comments on the performance of the song.

LYRICS( A mixture of original/traditional)

Fare you well my dear I must be gone and leave you for awhile. Though I go away I'll come back again. Though I roam ten thousand miles my dear, though I roam ten thousand miles.

Ten thousand miles it is too far to leave me here alone. Your pain I cannot ease nor my tears you cannot see 'til your heart is all but home my love, 'til your heart is all but home.

So fair thou art my bonnie lass, so deep in love am I. But I never will prove false to the bonnie lass I love. 'Til the stars fall from the sky my dear, 'til the stars fall from the sky.

So far you dwell from me my love, and farther your heart will be. But your home is here and 'til you return, the more I wait for thee my dear, the more I wait for thee.

The seas will never run dry my dear nor the rocks ever melt in the sun, and I never will prove false to the bonnie lass I love. 'Til all those things be done my dear, 'til all those things be done.

Fare you well my dear, I must be gone and leave you for awhile. Though I go away I'll come back again, though I roam ten thousand miles my dear, though I roam ten thousand miles.

I love this song!

[blindaurora]

Constructive: Make sure the person with the melody is the more prominent voice. Some of the double entrances and cut-offs were not together. Also, you guys soud like you have some trouble with your "i" sound. I particularly noticed it with "my love," "while" and "miles," Make sure the first part of the dipthong is very bright and tall.

Yay: Did you guys do this arrangement? It's really lovely and so haunting. And I loved the folk sound your voices have. Beauty!

this song is for my beloved late husband jakob issayic grimm. may you rest in peace my sweet, sweet king.

[GremlinsAndGnomes]

This song is beautiful. I'm singing it in my choir right now.

[DFInside]

I really like the voices in the song. I think I'd like it a lot more if the tempo was a bit slower.

[MsLolKittehs]

omg my school choir is doing a version of this song... but its way shorter than this... the verses in this order start with: "Fare you well my dear i must be gone", "so fare thou art my bonny lad", and "the sea will never run dry my dear".

that is the only verses and at the end it has a few "fare you well my dear"s and then at the very end, 2 " farewell"s

and sorry to be so rambly, i just think you sung that song so very beautifully.

[cupcakekiller94]

[porkholt]

It's beautiful. Great performance. Do you have the sheet music for the piano backing?

[Digilolita]

Did u guys play the piano yourself???? oAo;

[HeartWithATear]

does anybody know where I can get the original folksong "The True Lover's Farewell"? I'm dying trying to find it =(

[Narut0NineTailed]

very good, best version of turtle dove I've heard yet. I remember when my middle school choir sang this song, ah the good times...

[BubblyShadow]

This song is one of my favorites, I cry when I listen to it, yet I'm strangely calm after. The vocals were amazing!!!
