Mother (EarthBound 0) Song Lyrics 1.0 10/20/99 Writer: Andrew R Morozin (LoudKing@aol.com) To make note first I'd like to say I wrote this Song Lyric FAQ not the song's lyrics. Second I am a huge EarthBound fan and I see that Mother (EarthBound 0) is WAY better than Mother 2 (EarthBound for Super Nintendo). It has a better story, better characters, and WAY better music!!! ------------------------------------------------------------------ --------- Game Info Japanese Name: Mother American name: EarthBound 0 Type: Role Playing Game Japanese System: Nintendo or do they call it Famicon? American System: Nintendo Emulator (I recommend the new NESticle) Company: Shigesato Itoi/Nintendo Makers: Shigesato Itoi and Keiichi Suzuki Main Vocalist: Catherine Warwick For more info check out my review at gamefaqs.com! ------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------- Index 1.Something to Say 2.Eight Melodies 3.I believe 4.Bein' Friends 5.Wisdom of the World 6.The Flying Man 7.Paradise Line 8.All I Needed Was You 9.Catherine Warwick 10.Credits __________________________________________________________________ _____ {1} Something to Say This is not a song. I have something to say. If you like teh lyrics and want to hear the songs but can't I can help. As soon as I can I will put a small simple webpage just for downloading the seven songs from the Mother soundtrack with the lyrics for a small fee of nothing! Yep! You get all the songs that are worth buying the soundtrack for, for free! This will give me a better chance of gaining a Mother soundtrack CD for myself... But I will need an inspiration. If you're interested let me know. The songs come in Real Audio forms (like believe.ra). But they come in a zip with the lyrics attached. I just need to upload them somwhere... To find out who sings the songs, the people are listed before the lyrics in this FAQ. Nevermind! You don't ahve to wait. Get Mother or Mother 2, or in America EarthBound 0 and EarthBound 1 soundtracks here!!! http://www.earthbound.net/ebounding/sound/index.html Enjoy! And ignore the part where the guy says it has all Japanese lyrics. He's nuts. And my webpage is on if you still really want it and remember to get Real Audio!!! __________________________________________________________________ _____ {2} Eight Melodies Great song! Sung by Catherine Warwick. You hear this song after you get a tune and after you get.... Whatever it is you get in Mother 2 (EarthBound 1) EIGHT MELODIES Take a melody Simple as can be Give it some words And sweet harmony Raise your voices All day long now Love grows strong now Sing a melody of love, oh love (Tune differs here, is in game. Not in Mother 2 or EarthBound 1 for Americans) Love is the power Love is the glory Love is the beauty And the joy of spring Love is the magic Love is the story Love is the melody We all can sing __________________________________________________________________ _____ {3} I believe This song is also great...let's save time. They're all great. It's sung by Catherine Warwick. You hear it a lot. You can hear it outside of Ness's house and when Jack (leader of Bla-Bla Gang) says he believes before he passes out. I BELIEVE A.K.A POLLYANNA (I BELIEVE IN YOU) I believe in morning sun Always gonna shine again and I believe a pot of gold Waits at every rainbow's end, goes I believe in roses kissed with dew Why shouldn't I believe the same in you? I believe in make-believe Fairy tales and lucky charms, and I believe in promises Spoken as you cross your heart, oh I believe in skies forever blue Why shouldn't I believe the same in you? You may even say I'm a fool Feelin' the way that I do You can call me Pollyanna Say I'm crazy as a loon I believe in silver linings And that's why I believe in you I believe there'll come a day Maybe it will be tomorrow When the bluebird flies away All we have to do is follow I believe a dream can still come true Why shouldn't I believe the same in you? You may even say I'm a fool Feelin' the way that I do I believe in friends and laughter And the wonders love can do I believe in songs and magic And that's why I believe in you You may even say I'm a fool Feelin' this way about you There's not much I can do I'm gonna be this way my life through 'Cause I still believe in miracles I swear I've seen a few And the time will surely come When you can see my point of view I believe in second chances And that's why I believe in you __________________________________________________________________ _____ {4} Bein' Friends This is sung again by Catherine Warwick. You hear it after you get Jeff (the nerd) in the town he's from. You also hear it in other towns I believe. BEIN' FRIENDS When you are happy With laughter to spare Fun is twice as fun With someone to share When you are lonely And full of despair Things aren't half as bad When somebody cares Maybe now you have figured it out That's what bein' a friend is about When you're lookin' For someone you can rely on Won't you think about me When you're lookin' For someone you can rely on Don't you ever doubt me I'll be there someway, somehow That's what bein' friends is about When you are restless And want room to breathe I will give you all The space that you need And when you're ready For my company I will come around Just call on me Maybe now you have figured it out That's what bein' a friend is about When you need someone Who feels the way you do Won't you think about me Someone who can pick up you When you are blue Don't you ever doubt me I'll be there someway, somehow That's what bein' friends is about (Song differs here, not in game, just for oundtrack. Also gets freaky but this is indeed a friendly song) I'm your friend till the end Count On me In the sunshine and the rain Paradise and back again Count on me Let me be a friend in need*Repeat 3 times Let me be a friend indeed Count on me (Song differ ends here) And if you ask me You know that it's true There is not a thing That I wouldn't do I'd follow you To the ends of the earth That's how much I think Our friendship is worth Maybe now you have figured it out That's what bein' a friend is about When there's something That you just don't understand Won't you think about me I'll be more than glad To lend a helping hand Don't you ever doubt me I'll be there someway, somehow That's what bein' friends is about I'll be there someway, somehow That's what bein' friends is about (Song differs again, not in game, just for soundtrack) Tell me all your secrets I will swear to keep them Let me know your problems I will help you solve them When your heart is aching I will stop it breaking When you are in danger I am your guardian angel I will stand beside you Be the one to guide you When your dreams are crumblin' Call me I'll come runnin' That's what friends is all about __________________________________________________________________ _____ {5} Wisdom of the World This song is not sung by Catherine. It is sung by some woman. Sorry don't know 'er name. You hear it inside Queen Mary's castle in Magicant. WISDOM OF THE WORLD Through ice and through fire A wilderness of stone With dreams and desires I have come alone Seeking the answers Only you could know, oh * Show me the wisdom of the world Tell me the secrets of the heart And the sweet mysteries of love love Come fill my eyes with visions So that I may see Reveal the ancient powers Whisper them to me Here I stand before you Ready to receive (* Repeat) (Tune differ begins - Not in game, soundtrack only) Does a place called paradise Wait beyond the azure skies Bright as day? Look into your crystal ball Read the future in the stars Does it say? Will I give my heart in vain To a lover or a friend Come what may? Who to trust and where to turn There's so much I've yet to learn Show the way I am down on my knees Begging now hugging please (Tune differ ends) (* Repeat) __________________________________________________________________ _____ {6} The Flying Man The Flying Man is sung by some dude. Don't know his name either. It is heard inside The Flying Man's house. It is also heard after you die and in The Flying Man's house in Mother 2 (EarthBound 1). FLYING MAN Life is but a moment A single grain of sand That slips right through the hourglass And slips right through your hand You've shown me how To make each moment count And I know now What life is all about * Life is but a twinkle The winking of an eye A star that lights the universe A flash across the sky You came to me Just like a shooting star You gave to me The love that's in your heart * * When you live for love How precious life can be When you give your love I truly do believe If only for a moment It's a miracle to see So shine for all the world tonight And live for love Give your love to me (*Repeat) (**Repeat) (Song differs here, not in neither game, just for soundtrack) So shine for all the world tonight And live for love Give your love to me __________________________________________________________________ _____ {7} Paradise Line This whole song is basically a remix of the train song. Pretty much soundtrack only, a little recognizeable, basically a song just for the soundtrack, but it's great! It is sung by another dude who I don't know. THE PARADISE LINE The Paradise Special's Pullin' into the station Hurry up gotta get on board Adventure is the ticket To our destination Come on, now don't be slow Here we go, on down the track Paradise Special movin' down the track Half the fun of travel's Just the journey there lighten up and enjoy the show We're gonna make it now With hours to spare Hey don't you hear that whistle blow Moanin' low, the wheels talk back Raisin' a racket like a yakity yak Now we're goin' in style Let's start wearin' a smile Life keeps gettin' better all the time So much better Takin' the Paradise Line Now the locomotive's steamin' Like a runaway So come on, let's rock and roll And by this time tomorrow We'll be so far away If there's one thing that I know Then I know we won't be back Paradise Special never comin' back Just relax for a while Watch the world going by Just as long as we're together we'll be fine We'll be fine Takin' the Paradise Line (Chorus:) *Life is fine On the Paradise Line You and I On the Paradise Line (*Repeat) Wave your troubles goodbye Leave your sadness behind We can ride away forever you and I Yeah forever Takin' the Paradise Line Takin' the Paradise Line Takin' the Paradise Line __________________________________________________________________ _____ {8} All I Needed was You Surprisingly the whole song is in the game except the electric guitar parts and the beginning and end. This is the last song sung by Catherine Warwick. It is heard when Ness sings at the bar in Ellay. ALL THAT I NEEDED WAS YOU I used to think I was so smart I couldn't hide the hole in my heart Sad as it seems, none of my dreams Ever came true I used to walk the avenue All by myself with nothin' to do Kickin' at cans, half of a man Till I met you, and I knew (Tune differ begins) *I've looked for you all of my life Round every corner Wishin' on stars Like some kind of fool, ohh ohh But now I see the stars in your eyes Those days are over I took one look and I was hooked I found heaven in you, ooh ooh ooh (Tune differ ends) **And though my dream was overdue My prayer was answered out of the blue And now I know. I know it's true All that I needed was you (Chorus) You were all that I wanted You were all that I needed I was lost, anyone could tell Just tossing dimes in wishing wells Out of money and down on luck Was I surprised when lightnin' struck And suddenly, you were sent to me My destiny. it was meant to be I didn't know before What I was living for But now I know for sure I have been waiting for you I never knew what I had missed Until the moment that we kissed Angel divine, now you are mine I feel brand new And now at last, my life's complete Baby, your love's the missing piece Here in my arms, here in my heart All that I needed was you (*Repeat) (**Repeat) __________________________________________________________________ _____ {9} Catherine Warwick Catherine Warwick is a 14-year-old British girl who sang most of the Mother soundtrack songs.
