Now I assume that's something from Aquaria.  And I assume that anybody with the ability to give you what you want would know what you're talking about.  But if you give us a little more information somebody might be able to help you find it perhaps.

What more informations? I think it's clear.

"Lost to the waves" is a song from the Aquaria Soundtrack. It is not instrumental as most others but somebody (Jenna?) is singing. cl1786 now wants to know the lyrics.
 
Alas, I don't have them.

"Lost at the heart of sea
Memories drift away
The past but a shade
Lost to the waves

My journey here
A lifetime ago
And all that I was
Was lost to the waves"

I didn't know that.  That's what I was asking.  I'm not a music person.

Well, I have to admit that I had to listen to it again to remember that there are indeed tracks which aren't instrumental. It is a very good singing which adds much to the athmosphere. You should listen to it again. :)

Thanks for the lyrics Alec, it differs slightly to what I understood. :)

So Alec, did you write this?

Who performs it by the way?

Understandable if you can't disclose that at this time, but it is an awesome piece of music. 

It's like Aquaria as a whole.
Fleeting, beautiful, meaningful, and it leaves you wishing there was more to hear.

Lol, if you managed to hear it and missed the credits saying the voice acting was Jenna and the composer was Alec then maybe you just weren't paying enough attention. XD

Jenna did the singing, which is reaaaally cool. How many games have the main character / voice actress also singing a song? She worked really hard on it and I think she sounds great.  ^-^

The words were written by my now ex girlfriend and myself. She wrote one draft for me that was pretty wordy and lumpy, so I reworked them a bunch. But the song started with the words, the music was written after.

Anyway, paying more attention to the art than the credits, but I thought I saw them all...must have missed some...

Still, it's a great piece.  If they did another PLAY Concert I would hope they'd put it in there, it is really beautiful.

If this song is on the soundtrack then I'm definitely picking it up when it comes out.

Great work on the music Alec, and Jenna is an amazing singer.

Right now I'm waiting on Derek to polish up the packaging art. :D

I also want to write a bonus track.

Actually, I never do check the news.  In other forums I visit all the news posts also get a thread on the forums (sometimes locked, sometimes not).  It would be a nice way to let us know (and discuss) goings on.

What, pray tell, might be on said bonus track? 

Will it be awesome?

I bet it will be awesome.
