Note: These are five songs from "Notre-Dame de Paris" that I rewrote after an epiphany I'd had while driving, a very dangerous thing for a writer... ("Notre-Dame de Paris" is the musical based on Victor Hugo's The Hunchback of Notre Dame.) I couldn't help but think how much the musical reminded me of my book DBZ: And the Greatest of These, and so, with a little work, I rewrote the songs to reflect the characters (Piccolo, Vegeta, and Goku, with Kami as the narrator). I'm working on the sixth, which is a song for Kurenai.
This song is based on "Moon."
STARS
Kami
Stars
You who shine your light
Bright on the world tonight
See how this poor Namek yearns to love
Clear solitary stars so far
Will the day yet come
When he will understand what it means to feel
Please hear the cry
Of a heart in pain
For whom all you million stars
Don't shine like those violet eyes he loves
A forbidden love
Stars
Stars
Please don't disappear
Because he's consumed with fear
Please hear how cries the heart within Piccolo
Please hear his cry
Yes, a Namek cries
He cries for his heart's desire, his voice over mountains flies
So high that I know it flies to you
Stars
See how he now desires to love that poor fallen angel
Stars
You who shine your light
For lovers in the night
See how this poor Namek yearns for love
For love
