So I wrote a Hey There Delilah filk for Doctor Who, and this awesome, awesome guy did a cover of it for me because he can sing and I cannot.

So please go give him love. 

Lyrics:

Hey there Rose Tyler, what’s it like with Doctor Two?
I’m on adventures with the Ponds,
But, girl, you know I’m missing you; you know I do.
No stars can shine as bright as you.
I swear it’s true.

Hey Martha Jones, I hope you’re happy with your Mickey.
Promise I’ll come visit you as soon as we fix this doohickey 
That we’re in. I know you’re happy now with him.
Sounds like you win.

Oh, it’s how you all left me,
Oh, and left me so lonely.
Oh, but now you’re all so free,
Oh, you deserve to be happy.
You can’t have been with me.

Hey Donna Noble, I did everything I could,
You know that forgetting my face, well, it was all for your own good.
This was for you. Everything I did was all for you.
My word is true.

Hey there Jack Harkness, there was much I meant to say.
Never meant to leave you back there, 
And if you forgive me then one day, I’ll come for you.
I never meant to be so cruel, leave you so blue.

Oh, it’s how you all left me,
Oh, and left me so lonely.
Oh, but now you’re all so free,
Oh, you deserve to be happy.
You can’t have been with me.

And now hope is like a distant star,
But this blue box can go so far,
And I’d die for you if I had no other way.
I’ve never felt this old before, 
My soul is worn, my hearts are sore,
And it’s because of you I feel this way.

Companions, I can promise you
That by the time my life is through,
The universe will never be the same.
Guess I’m to blame.

Hey there Amelia, 
Now it’s over, please don’t miss me.
You have Rory here who loves you,
And I’ll be off and changing history, like I do.

You know I did it all for you.
You can do whatever you want to.
Hey there Amelia, here’s to you.
It’s all for you.

Oh, it’s how you all left me,
Oh, and left me so lonely.
Oh, but now you’re all so free,
Oh, you deserve to be happy.
You can’t have been with me.

The Hanging Tree – Paola Bennet

The Hanging Tree (Mockingjay) - acapella cover by Paola Bennet  

I’ve been asked and meaning to cover this for a while — in my head I heard it with such a Southern Gothic vibe that I just took it there. Really is best with headphones for the harmonies. Listen, share, come to the tree. xo

Darkness – Julia Ecklar


There’s a (Am)darkness out bet(E)ween the stars that (Am)any eye can see
There’s a (G)deeper dark with(Am)in me, where no (F)light will ever (Am)be
There’s an (C)empty place be(G)side me where my (F)lover ought to (E)stand
And there’s a (Am)burning sun be(G)fore me, and the (Am)throttle’s (E)in my (Am)hand
“Darkness,” by Jordin Kare, sung by Julia Ecklar

Mary O'Meara – Windbourne


(C) Mary O’Meara, the stars and the dewfall
Have covered your hilltop with (G) light.
The (F) wind in the lilies that (C) blossom around you
Goes (F) bearing your name from the (G) height;
My (F) girl, you are all of the (C) night.

“Mary O’Meara,” from the novel World Without Stars by Poul Anderson, performed by Windbourne.  Chords transcribed by me!  I’m very proud.
Music is sometimes accredited to Anne Passoway, and sometimes to a Swedish folk tune.  Full lyrics and more information here.
