Me singing "Find the Way" from Gundam Seed (Original ENG)

I've always loved this song so I thought I would write my own version of the lyrics using the original translation as a basis.

I sing everything in this including the high harmonies. =)

Original song sung by Mika Nakashima.

Here are my lyrics. Feel free to use them if you would like, I have no problem with it.

Find the Way
From Gundam Seed
English lyric adaptation by Ruzena Thibault (Mirialiah)

Why do you stand there, with small hands at your side?
You know it's not your job to bear the weight of the world.
Every action's not for one single soul; for all mankind we play this role.
Why am I still standing? Why am I so scared?
Is it that hard to stand and face my fears head-on?
I'm waiting for the rays to beam from the sun, and light the way...

Find the way
Though from the world we live in, our hands can't reach stars
Instead we find ourselves just clinging to this love of ours.
Traveling near and far to find the light; somehow we know we'll find it in the end.
You'll find the way.

One day you told me, "I dreamt the longest dream..."
"It was the type that makes you feel the urge to cry..."
"What I saw was clear as light through the glass; unfading visions by and by."
I said, "I'm here, don't worry. I understand your pain. I'll stay beside you through the storm and the rain."
But way deep down inside, our hopes were the same. We yearned for peace...

Find the way
Without words we can go on. Without wings we can fly.
We'll stand our ground and just look up towards the sky.
Even if we are the chosen ones, to shoulder all this pain we must go on...

We only hope, answers aren't all, surely there's something else to be said
I'll stay patient always, It's all okay...you'll be okay...
.
Find the way
Though from the world we live in, our hands can't reach the stars
Instead we find ourselves just clinging to this love of ours
Traveling near and far to find the light; somehow we know we'll find it in the end.

Find the way
Without words we can go on. Without wings we can fly.
We'll stand our ground and just look up towards the sky.
We know the path we've traveled can't be wrong; we see the light is shining at the end.
You'll find the way.

Can I be your Kira?

[Mirialiah]

@EienMiku

I think I've already got a Kira. :P Not sure my husband would be okay with me taking on another.

You know the cover version is good if your heart trembles and tears form in your eyes as if you're listening to the original.

The only problem I see is the lack of power in the chorus section, and the "toward" part which is sung in a single beat, but other than that: cheers.

In the spirit of "Youtube's got talent": A definite Like from me.

Good luck with your future endeavors.

@Rondart

Thank you very much.

I agree whole-heartedly with your comment as well as your constructive criticism. That's been one of the things I've regretted not fixing when I made this originally (and there are quite a few things). If I ever re-do it, I will definitely be improving that. :) Thank you very much for your input.

@Mirialiah OMG THAT WOULD MEAN SO MUCH TO ME. AND UR RIGHT. U R SOOO CONSIDERATE... UM EMAIL ME AT firehead710@hotmail.com or firehead710@gmail.com ur choice thx

[Mirialiah]

@IHEARTPI710

I prefer not to post the MP3 anywhere since I'd really like to be in charge of who wants/receives it. Places where you post MP3s don't seem very safe to me. A lot of them give people viruses as well and I don't want to be responsible for that. I hope you understand. :)

If you would still like it, feel free to message me your email and I can send it right over. :)
