My Water Version of Let It Go (Make A Wave)

posted by KataraLover

READ THIS FIRST
Before you read the lyrics, you should know that I'm doing this from the male perspective because I myself am a guy. Also, originally I had lyrics from Demi Lovato's version but I decided to edit those out and some parts that are a little wordy. Help with the wordy lyrics was done sa pamamagitan ng kristenfan10109. I hope you enjoy it!

The moon glows bright on the ocean tonight
Not a footprint in the sand
A whole world of isolation,
And it looks like I'm the king.

The waves are calm unlike this emotional storm inside
Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I tried!

Don't let them in, don't let them see
Be the good boy you always had to be
Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know
Well, it's time they knew!

Make a wave! Make a wave
I refuse to hide it anymore
Make a wave! Make a wave!
Let it go and ride the tide!

I don't care
What they're going to say
Let the sea rage on,
For once I can finally breath!

It's funny how some distance
Makes everything seem small
And the fears that once controlled me
Have forever disappeared!

It's time to see what I can do
To test the limits and break through
No right, no wrong, no rules for me
I'm free!

Make a wave! Make a wave!
My spirit is one with the sea!
Make a wave! Make a wave!
You'll never see me cry!

Here I'll shine
And be who I am
Let the sea rage on!

The water flies from the sea into my hands
My soul is dancing through the waves all around
And one thought can bend the ocean to my will
I'm never going back,
The future's all I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed!

Make a wave! Make a wave!
Ooh I will rise and never fall!
Make a wave! Make a wave!
That scared little boy is gone!

Here I'll shine
In the full-moon's glow
For once I can finally breeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeath!

audreybrooke I like the concept of this, but it's a [i]little[/i] rough. The rhyme scheme is off and it's a little too wordy. But I'm sure that with a teeny bit of tweaking, it'll be better than the original!

KataraLover Well, I think that this is mainly just a rough draft. I've only working on the lyrics for a few days, so it's obviously not perfect, since writing songs take a lot of time. Thanks for the constructive criticism.

kristenfan10109 It's good I like the lyrics but like Audrey said its a little to wordly and for me when I personally sang the song only I found that when it came Demi's parts it didn't flow because the way her song is written the tune is completely different so its blocking the flow of Elsa's which yours is mostly based on. So if it were me I'd take out Demis parts even though I love her version then I'd change "Here I'll shine and be who I am cause for once I can finally breath" to Here I'll shine and be who I am let the sea rage on!" And "Here I'll shine in the full moons glow for once I can finally breath let it go and the tide" to "Here I'll shine in the full moons glow and finally breath or let the sea rage on let it go and the tide or the water never bothered me anyway". Hope you don't mind the suggestions and what I said helps.

KataraLover Thanks, very helpful. I made those edits just now.

PrincessAyeka12 I've rewritten songs before to match different fandoms. My best one was Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Slayer Party to S Club 7's S Club Party. Yours needs work but with a few tweaks to rhyme more, it'll be better.

KataraLover Thanks. I edited it just now.

Renegade1765 Nice article :) About 2 months ago I made an analysis of Let It Go and you should see it.It's very good and I think you'll enjoy it.

Renegade1765 Just leave your thought and tell me what you think okay .

KataraLover Okay, I'll get to it as soon as I can.

shanyuisboss Hmm.. I love the bridge. And I really love the concept. However, I feel like something just isn't right about it. I feel like this song's structure fits better with rhymes. Maybe that's just me. I do think you are really good at song writing though, good job!

KataraLover I think the thing that bugs you is that it's not the original. There's nothing wrong with that. I mean, whenever I hear different element versions of Let It Go, while they're fantastic, just aren't as good as the original. Plus with just seeing the lyrics and not hearing music, you have to imagine it in your head and with different lyrics, it might be more difficult to imagine it flowing better. So I understand. I definitely wasn't trying to have this compare with the original because that's just a loss cause, it's mainly for fun. I find myself critiquing all the time, so I thought I'd just have fun, even though critically analyzing things is half the fun for me. But overall, I'm glad you like it and I do understand any problems anyone would have with it.

cruella Very nice. I really like the concept of this . I can even imagine this being a song in a real Disney movie.

PrincessAyeka12 Yeah, I'm the same. I know the original version pretty well. But Demi's version not so well. So when I'm reading the lyrics it's Elsa's version. So it doesn't sound right, still lacks rhyme. But to be fair I had this trouble myself with some songs. So I can see and understand you're reasoning too.

KataraLover Thanks everyone

dee389 Please sing it on Youtube!!!!! I would love to hear it!!

KataraLover I don't think I would be able to. I always get nervous and sing a little off key when I try to sing Let It Go. Maybe I will someday. Thank you.
