Why Must it Be this Way?
Song "Lullaby" owned by Billy Joel
How? How could this happen?
How can you die and leave me here…here in this world to face reality?
Why?
Luna…why?
Goodnight my angel time to close your eyes
And save these questions for another day
I think I know what you’ve been asking me
I think you know what I’ve been trying to say
Why did you go to that stupid battle. Why did any of us go?
None of us wanted this…and yet we all must deal with this hell.
What about our future? We’ve been married for four years!
Are the Valar that cruel that they would take you from me after such a short time?
I promised I would never leave you
But you should always know
No matter where you go
No matter where you are
I never will be far away
WE promised each other that the eons we would have together would be full of laughter.
Now there are no eons…only pain filled days.
Good night my angel now its time to sleep
And still so many things I want to say
Remember all the songs you’ve sang to me
When we were sailing on an emerald bay
You were always the strong one…the one ready to fight. But this is one fight that you didn’t get to fight. You lost…and the price was one that maybe you were ready to pay, but none of us were.
And like a boat out on the ocean
I’m rocking you to sleep
The waters dark and deep inside this ancient heart
You’ll always be a part of me
Your being gone is like a wound that will never heal. Never! I hope the Valar realize that.
We all suffer, suffer because you’re gone.
I still remember that day. The day you died. It wasn’t so long ago. You were there in the healing wings, and we were sitting around your bedside, waiting for you to wake. And you did, you opened your silver eyes and you looked at me, and uttered two words…two. And the light was gone. The moon was gone.
Good night my angel, now it’s time to dream
And dream how wonderful your life will be
Someday your child will cry
And if you sing this lullaby
In every heart there will always be a part of me
Kerowyn cannot cope
Lindir grieves
Elenwe walks around in a daze
Elladan is angry
Legolas comforts others
Meahan weeps
Elrond Hides
Glorfindel leaves
Sanariam heals
Searyn denies
I…well…I talk to you Luna.
And you are gone.
Someday we’ll all be gone
But lullabies go on and on
They never die
That’s how you and I
Will be
Our love, no matter where we are, is the same. And one day, my Luna, I will join you…I will. Nothing can separate you from me.
You are what makes my heart beat, my soul awaken, and without you, the world is a cold place, a place of nothing but barren souls, and melancholy.
I will see you…
Never forget.
