Submit: Lyrics (I Love You Always Forever)
The theme for week 104 is a lyrical challenge, featuring the song I Love You Always Forever by Donna Lewis. You may submit one CLAMP icon as long as it features at least three consecutive words from the following lyrics.
I Love You Always Forever
Donna Lewis
Feels like I'm standing in a timeless dream
Of light mists of pale amber rose
Feels like I'm lost in a deep cloud of heavenly scent
Touching, discovering you
Those days of warm rains come rushing back to me
Miles of windless summer night air
Secret moments shared in the heat of the afternoon
Out of the stillness soft spoken words
Say say it again
I love you always forever
Near and far closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
(Say say it again)
I love you always forever
Near and far closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
You've got the most unbelievable blue eyes I've ever seen
You've got me almost melting away
As we lay there under a blue sky with pure white stars
Exotic sweetness a magical time
Say say it again
I love you always forever
Near and far closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
(Say say it again)
I love you always forever
Near and far closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
Say you'll love love me forever
Never stop never whatever
Near and far and always and everywhere and every
Say you'll love love me forever
Never stop never whatever
Near and far and always and everywhere and every
Say you'll love love me forever
Never stop never whatever
Near and far and always and everywhere and every
Say you'll love love me forever
Never stop never whatever
Near and far and always and everywhere and everything
I love you always forever
Near and far closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
I love you always forever
Near and far closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
I love you always forever
Near and far closer together
Everywhere I will be with you
Everything I will do for you
The order counts for the first three words but afterwards you can take a bit more liberty rearranging them so long as you don't misrepresent what the lyrics mean. It is not necessary to maintain punctuation and you may substitue alternate characters for words when appropriate (e.g. replacing and with &). You are not allowed to incorporate any external text into your icon, though you may use tinytext/brushes provided they're purely decorative and not legiable. Please try to keep the required text as readable as possible and do check your spelling/wording before submitting, it's easy to make an error.
Aside from that everything is up to you when it comes to selecting the perfect lyrics and matching it to your chosen series/character imagery. As always, be creative and have some fun.
Please submit your icon by uploading it to an outside host that allows direct linking, then leave a screened comment to this post with your icon's img src, url, series and character names. This information makes my job easier so please follow this example.
