That this isn't goodbye.

Ok...So this is a really really personal song written to the melody (well, most of it, I never learnt it properly) of Yui's Taiyou no Uta. I'm aware of about a gazillion flaws in this...but hey...I wanted to get this up. My voice/throat is pretty much gone, and I also have an ulcer on my tongue which made ennuciation hard. I'll probably re-record one day.

Why I wrote this? This is dedicated to my nii-san, my life, and my hamster. Yes, they are all one person, and that person has promised to comment on this song, so maybe you can draw your conclusions from that. I'll miss you like hell, even though all you're doing is leaving school. But this isn't goodbye...but i'm still hurting inside, because it means I won't see you as often.

I guess in a way, this is going to be the beginning of a sort of decline for me recording and posting songs here on soompi. I'm entering my last year of highschool, and it's been getting harder and harder to record. I've been kinda down about it lately, and when I do try to record, I've never been satisfied with the results. But yes, I will be busy, so after about 3 weeks, I probably will stop recording except for on very rare occasions. I'll still comment on other people's works though, that is probably what I enjoy most here.

Lyrics (believe me, you'll need them):
Time is fleeing
Memories seize them
When it's over...

Seasons passing changing
Tear drops falling raining
Seems that everything is breaking
It seems that everyday is getting closer to the end...but its not the end...

I tell myself that I will be alright
That I'll take care, and stand and fight

It's not goodbye, not the end
There are no broken hearts to mend
It's not farewell, No need to cry
We'll meet again, and then we'll fly
Those afternoons, that shining light
Those smiling days, and fearful nights
We'll meet again, it's not the end,
So don't say goodbye

In a way I guess this
is Me, my heart my mind
in pieces and I admit I'm scared
Too many words left unsaid
Will our story remain unread
And I'm not sure that I'm prepared

To throw caution to the winds
And let go of everything but you

It's not goodbye, not the end
There are no broken hearts to mend
It's not farewell, No need to cry
We'll meet again, and then we'll fly
Those afternoons, that shining light
Those smiling days, and fearful nights
We'll meet again, it's not the end,
So don't say goodbye

Goodbye...


Watching here, the clock's hands turning
Don't stop now forever yearning
say three words, let me know that they're true

One last kiss, one last farewell
Hit rewind, and tell me tell me...



So tell me that...
It's not goodbye
Wipe stray tears from my eyes
Tell me that we'll meet again
Tell me that, we've crossed the end
As seasons change, we'll go on
I'll watch your back, you'll keep me strong
Don't say goodbye, Watch me fly
we'll go on...

It's not goodbye, not the end
There are no broken hearts to mend
It's not farewell, No need to cry
We'll meet again, and then we'll fly
Those afternoons, that shining light
Those smiling days, and fearful nights
We'll meet again, it's not the end
So don't say...

goodbye but not the end
Not farewell, no need to cry
We'll meet again and then we'll fly away
Afternoons, shining light
Smiling days, now lonely nights
We'll meet again, it's not the end...
Goodbye.


Comments much appreciated, as are critiques. Just bear in mind...the song means a lot to me, k? And don't say anything about the letter "S" I'm quite *growl* about it, cos my tongue hurts and I kept biting it ><.
PS/ sb, I hope you don't mind that I also did an english version. I like your one better than mine if it means anything!

first comment? biggrin.gif

i like it, although yea the pronouciation is not as crisp, but its good. hell i couldnt understand half of what people sing in other songs anyways haha

its really nice and touching that you wrote this yourself, i actually felt the message and the emotions *sniff*

hey you shouldnt let school stop you from recording.. we all feel like we are going no where and not improving sometimes, in fact i feel like that all the time... plus in college now i can barely record with all the stupidity amount of work.

but anyways i like this because this is what most of me songs are about too, like the one i did with fantasii, just a bit varying in the details. but yo, i love this, the lyrics, singing, everything!

The lyrics are so sweet T_T

Mr. hamster better reply to this or I will poke him...virtually. Yes, I do know who it is rofl.

Keep singing or I'll poke YOU.

I don't really care about your enunciation in this. Since it's such a personal song. It's great.

The lyrics flow well with the melody and yeah, arrangement was good too.

You suit this ^^

My fave line: "There are no broken hearts to mend"

Btw, can't believe mikeZ took my first dry.gif *pokes him*
MATHMATICIOUS.

enunciation. you don't talk like that in real life, so don't in your recordings tongue.gif

as far as the lyrics goes...well I can't exactly type that up here, can I.

But it's a job well done.
Only now a sporadic visitor.

biggrin.gif


Aiya, soompi lost a couple posts here, but i'll shout out to the ones i remember

mikez:
I was going to comment on how rai didn't get first post, but looks like she's already found out. tongue.gif hehehe And i loved the one you did with fantasii <3
And haha usually when I can't understand what other people are singing, it's cos they're not singing in english sweatingbullets.gif

Oni, and the other person who I have totally forgotten the user name of, thankyou for commenting, and unfortunately, they've been lost. But yes, oni, I did try to fix some of the volumes, and I hope it's improved now!

Rai:
I poked him in real life about it until he did comment XD
And I will keep singing. I just don't know if I'll be recording as much, because my recordings can take ages and distract me from my hw...although this one was two nights staying up til like 2 to finish (then again, i ignored the pile of hw XD). ^^;;

Hmaster:
Hi biggrin.gif ! You finally commented on something of mine! And yeah, I know enunciation was hideous -______-" but I was sick and you know it tongue.gif *hug* Not goodbye, ne?
