Alex, aww thats so sweet of you! Thank you! The thread might not have made sense otherwise. It is too beautiful not to have been read
Anyway, final recommendation- more for protection of the song than anything else.

I’m a big fan of A-ha as well as Roxette - I think it would be very interesting to see Marie and Morten do a duet together. ;) - especially a love song!

Alex hun, it sounds fucking fantastic on paper- just need a killer melody now!

@whateveriam.
Thank you for your post!!!! :-)
Actually, I got an idea on how could the melody be... but I can’t play any instrument... So, I’m looking for a musician to create a melody for these lyrics...
@crashroxer,
You must be kidding...
... that’s why I’m LOL!!!

Alex, you’re very welcome- I can’t play anything very well, so I can’t help - but someone might have a tune in their head to put with it...

If you have an idea, tape it NOW before you forget it. Then get someone musical to transcribe it for you into proper notation, then see how it goes from there

I like Morten’s vocals also.... and like “Hunting High and low” album, one of my 80’s faves :-)

Hmmm, not sure if they would sound good together...
But I like the album “Scoundrel Days”!

Well, who else could duet with Marie, Galadriel? Any suggestions? I think they would sound pretty darn good together. Scoundrels Days is a cool album, but Hunting High And Low is still my favourite.

@whateveriam,
I posted the lyrics again, in respect of you and the other ones who spent their time replying to this thread...
Sorry...

I have no idea about copyright info for Brazil though, but I assume it is similar to the info on this site.

Hi, folks!
I would like to show you the lyrics I made for a song that it’s intended to be sung by Marie Fredriksson and Morten Harket (at least in my imagination... ;-) ). It’s entitled “Precious Love”, it’s a ballad. Any comments will be very welcome!!!

P.S.: Sorry for any grammar mistakes!!
PRECIOUS LOVE
Marie Fredriksson
Verse 1
I’m lonely, yes,
I never felt so sad
I’ve tried to live my life
Without you
Verse 2
My days were blessed
But they have changed so fast
I’m not that girl I used to be
Beside you
Pre-chorus
All my thoughts
They’re about the love you gave
That made my dreams come true
But the words that we said
And the scars that they left
Just made all those living dreams get through
Chorus 1
For all those times you made me smile
For all this wave of tears away
I need you, not just for a while
I need you here, with me to stay
Cause it’s you that set my heart
To show the best there is in me
That’s all I’m waiting for
For your so precious love
Morten Harket
Verse 3
Hold me close
Fill my heart and soul
With that love I used to feel
Around you
Verse 4
Need me there
To share your dreams, I swear
I’ll be the man you always wished
To love you
Pre-chorus
All my thoughts
They’re about the love and grace
That once embraced we two
Cause the break of our ties
Just brought tears to my eyes
Turned my days into this maze I’m through
Chorus 2
For all the joy I had before
For all these endless days of pain
I need you now to bring the cure
I need the chance to live again
Cause it’s you that set my life
To be the way it has to be
That’s all I’ve wanted more
All your so precious love
So shine it like the stars above
All your so precious love
(Instrumental)
Morten Harket
Pre-chorus
All my thoughts
They’re about what can’t be erased
The sweetest things I knew
Marie Fredriksson
Cause the world that I’ve found
Since you left, brings me down
I lost my shelter from the days of blue
