Theme song? - SkyeFire - 06-04-2012
Well, I've never thought of a power for it. But for whatever reason, this song has struck me as a passable overall theme for Doug's entire involuntary walkabout. Unfortunately, I've never been able to find lyrics for it, so I'll have to settle for a YT video....

I found this site with the basic lyrics: www.maxilyrics.com/adrenalin-road-of-th ... -0b2d.htmlThere were a few of errors (missed lyrics, wrong word, etc) that I changed. Bold is added/changed and strikethrough are deletions. It's a quick job and I didn't have the time to add in the backing vocals so please excuse any mistakes.
Road of the Gypsy Lyricsby Adrenalin
[Marc Gilbert/Michael "Flash" Haggerty/Michael Romeo/Jimmy Romeo/Mark Pastoria/Bruce Schafer/Brian Pastoria]
Out on my own, since I was a young, young boy
Gonna live and die, in the streets I'd cry, when I was alone
It's been twenty long years
The fire's still burning
The wax on the candle, it melts like tears
You know it don't come easy
The road of the gypsy
Well I'm holding tight
Cause I know this dream's gonna carry me home
It's been a long hard fight
Many sleepless nights
For something to call my own
It's been twenty long years
And my heart is raging
Something to believe, in spite of the tears
You know it don't come easy
The road of the gypsy
Ooh, road of, The road of the gypsy.... Yeah
You know the streets have made me an angry man, oh no
I've got to go on
And give it all I can
Yeah, yeah, yeah
It's been twenty long years
The fire's is still burning
The wax on the candle, it melts like tears
You Know it Don't Come Easy
Hearts of stone
Are hearts that are cut but won't sting ???????
Blood's sings through the young man's hands
With the will to live
Or the right to be free
The road of the gypsy, yeah
Ro...oad, The road of the gypsy, mmm
Like an eagle I fly with this dream rushing through my hair
On the streets that I ride
With a feelin' of pride
And a life I will never regret
You know this dream's gonna carry me home
Down, down the road of the gypsy

Thanks.
I suppose I should note that I have had a theme song in mind for quite a number of years already -- Supertramp's "Take The Long Way Home".

Oh, it's just my thematically-appropriate song for the Walk. I hardly expected it to be taken up officially, or anything -- I was certain you must already have had one of your own by this point (heck, you may have mentioned it before and I just forgot). But I figured "Gypsy" resonated well enough that some would find it interesting.

Oh, it does, it does.
