I think I' right in assuming that plenty of us here love the original pokemon games. Me too. So I ended up writing my own lyrics to the Lavender Town theme song. Unfortunately, the source material is not conducive to vocal accompaniment for obvious reasons, so I had the great idea to make a mix for the song!
Then I remembered I can't compose.
So I'm posting here in the hopes that someone can help me out here. MangaMan is also on board. I really don't have a vision for the accompaniment other than it needs to sound creepy as hell to match my lyrics, so if you're interested, send me a PM and we can talk about mixing it up. The lyrics are as follows:
Welcome, Welcome
To the town of Sorrows
Have you come to
Say hello to old friends?
Lavender, Lavender
Such a lovely, sweet scent
Wafts around us
Comforting the ill heart
Here they lie now
Bodies rest below you
Friends, companions
Find eternal slumber
Rain falls slowly
Sky grows darker
In the distance
Stormclouds shed their cold tears
Lavender, Lavender
Such a gentle color
Soothing, ghostly
Color of the dead
Here they rise now
Say hello to old friends
They have missed you
Endless years of waiting
Lavender, Lavender
We won't be forgotten
You will join us
You'll always remember
