Yet another possible Gate song... - robkelk - 06-14-2006
been a long road to follow
been there and gone tomorrow
without saying goodbye to yesterday
are the memories i hold still valid?
or have the tears deluded them?
maybe this time tomorrow
the rain will cease to follow
and the mist will fade into one more today
something somewhere out there keeps calling
am i going home?
will i hear someone singing solace to the silent moon?
zero gravity what's it like?
am i alone?
is somebody there beyond these heavy aching feet
still the road keeps on telling me to go on
something is pulling me
i feel the gravity of it all
gravity, performed by Maaya Sakamoto, lyrics by troy, music by Yoko Kanno, from the album Nikopachi, copyright (c) 2003 Victor Entertainment Inc., Japan.
(One can buy the album here.)
Yes, it's supposed to be in all lower-case.
Yes, it's a Kanno/Sakamoto song that's in English.
Yes, it's yet another possible gate song ("been a long road to follow / ... / still the road keeps on telling me to go on")... but I'm thinking it's either to reach the Sailor Moon Step ("will i hear someone singing solace to the silent moon?"), or to leave a Step that brings Doug to despair ("are the memories i hold still valid?").
Edit: Come to think of it, this would be a good one for Doug to use to leave the Sailor Moon Step - "will i hear someone singing solace to the silent moon?" and "are the memories i hold still valid?" are both good lines for leaving that world, if canon holds and Doug's memories go the way of everyone else's...

You know, I like the idea of that as Doug's exit from the Sailor Moon world. I'm going to paste that into the file right now.
