Vibes Web3 Music Competition (Week 5) — Soledad

Hello Vibes community members, I'm excited to participate in the Week 6 of Vibes Web3 Music Competition.

Pondering on the song to present this week, several amazing songs came to mind. However, I decided to go for "SOLEDAD" by Westlife as it reminds me of a lot of great people I have lost in life.

The sober and emotional blues, particularly, recalls the memories of my late mother and brother @dantommy, who passed away in 2017 and 2022, respectively. Thus, this cover is dedicated to them.

To you who may have lost any loved one, I hope you find comfort in the good memories and times you shared with them.

Likewise, this is a reminder to all of us to choose love over hate because life is ephemeral. Moreover, let your loved ones know you love and value them while they are still alive. Give people their flowers while they are still breathing.

Selah!

Song lyrics
[Verse 1]
If only you could see the tears
In the world you left behind
If only you could heal my heart just one more time
Even when I close my eyes
There's an image of your face
And once again I come to realise
You're a loss I can't replace

[Chorus]
Soledad
It's the keeping for the lonely
Since the day that you were gone
Why did you leave me?
Soledad
In my heart, you were the only
And your memory lives on
Why did you leave me?
Soledad

[Verse 2]
Walking down the streets of Nothingville
Where our love was young and free
Can't believe just what an empty place it has come to be
I would give my life away
If that could only be the same
'Cause I can't still the voice inside of me
That is calling out your name (Calling out your name

[Bridge]
Time will never change the things you told me
But after all, we're meant to be
Love will bring us back to you and me
If only you could see
