So I have this idea for a band fanfic kinda thing, where I take a song from a band, and turn it into a fanfic based on the lyrics. This thread features Nightwish, my favorite band ever. If you have a request for a Nightwish Song Story, feel free to request! I'll do my best to turn it into a story 
Our Decades in the Sun
I climbed off your back
Not so long ago
To a blooming meadow
To a path you'd made for the lightest feet
Mother
I am always close to you
I will be waving every time you leave
Oh, I am you
The care, the love, the memories
We are the story of one
Father
I am always close to you
I will be waving every time you leave
Oh, I am you
The care, the love, the memories
You are forever in me
This verse we wrote
On a road home
For you
All this for you
All this for you
Our walk has been sublime
A soaring ride and gentle lead
You have the heart of a true friend
One day we'll meet on that shore again
Mother
I am always close to you
I will be waving every time you leave
Oh, I am you
The care, the love, the memories
We are the story of one
Father
I am always close to you
I will be waving every time you leave
Oh, I am you
The care, the love, the memories
You are forever in me
The little girl was named Jade, for she was a gemstone in her parents eyes.
The little family had made it to a small clearing in the deepest part of the woods. The little girl looked at it in awe, for it was a blooming meadow. Jade's father kneeled, letting his four year old daughter climb off his back. The little girl walked along the path, careful not to crush the beautiful wild flowers.
The mother and father watched their daughter, smiling. She was always so gentle, so caring towards wildlife. Despite having had her a little young, they wouldn't want it any other way.
Years and years later, a woman sat at the bedside of her parents. They were elderly and sick, and the woman knew she would lose them within a couple days. If not tonight. This was Jade, now 40, with a family of her own. However, she left them for several months in order to care for her sickly parents. Jade knew they would die soon, and wanted to be there for them. Her parents held hands, even in their coma state, and Jade knew nothing could break them a part. Even death. Jade watched the heart monitor as it flat lined, and knew that they had finally passed on. But despite their death, they lived on in Jade and her family, and all the care, the love, and the memories they shared.
Turn Loose The Mermaids
A kite above a graveyard grey
At the end of the line far far away
A child holding on to the magic of birth and awe
Oh, how beautiful it used to be
Just you and me far beyond the sea
The waters, scarce in motion
Quivering still
At the end of the river the sundown beams
All the relics of a life long lived
Here, weary traveler rest your wand
Sleep the journey from your eyes
Good journey, love, time to go
I checked your teeth and warmed your toes
In the horizon I see them coming for you
The mermaid grace, the forever call
Beauty in spyglass on an old man's porch
The mermaids you turned loose brought back your tears
An old man sits on his porch, rocking in his rocking chair. His time, he knew, was about to come to an end. Not that he minded, he had lived a long, fruitful life, full of happiness. Though his hair had long since turned a silvery gray, and his wife had long since passed, and his children had gone on with their own lives, he knew he had done well in his life. He gazed once more upon his life, memories flooding through his mind.
He was a child, thriving and ecstatic. His mother had recently gone to the hospital, and all he knew was that he was going to have a baby brother soon. He ran out into the fields with his kite, flying it to pass the time until his mother and brother came home. Hours later, his father called him from the fields and the young boy eagerly came.
"Rayne.." The father spoke softly. "Meet your baby brother. His name is Cody."
The young boy, Rayne, approached his exhausted mother, who held a bundle in her arms. He peered into the blanket and gasped, seeing his brother for the first time. He was so tiny and helpless. Rayne reached tentatively, touching his soft cheek with his fingers.
His twin sister Chasity came from their room, rubbing her eyes sleepily. "What's going on?" She yawned. Rayne looked over to her, grinning.
"It's our baby brother." He remembered last second to whisper. Chasity gasped and hurried over. The two four year olds watched their baby brother sleep peacefully. This was Rayne's earliest childhood memory.
As he grew older, so did his temper. He began getting angrier and hateful, and bullied his sister Chasity. Then, he found out about his heritage, how his father was never really his father. His real father forced himself on his mother, and the man who raised him wasn't anything, not in Rayne's eyes, anyways. He ran away from home after finding out about this. He was devastated that his existence was a mistake. Despite being 17, and not having a penny to his name, he ran out of town so his mother wouldn't try tracking him down. He didn't blame her, but he felt his being in her life hurt her. He would miss his younger brother, Cody, but he didn't think he could stay. One day, when he was sleeping on a bench, a young lady, about his age, came up to him.
"Do you need a place to stay?" She asked, looking sympathetic.
Rayne looked at her suspiciously, but nodded. He followed her to her home. Her parents were at first suspcious, but soon started to understand his plight. They allowed him to stay. He stayed for a year, he and the girl getting closer and closer. Her name was Allie, and she was a beautful blue-eyed girl. He vowed to protect her forever. Allie one day encouraged him to return to his family. He reluctantly agreed, and when he went to his childhood home, he expected to be shunned. But it was the opposite. His mother nearly strangled him in a hug, sobbing. The man who raised him... no... his father, put a hand on his shoulder.
"Welcome home, son." He too had tears in his eyes.
His twin sister and younger brother tackled him, squealing in happiness. Rayne introduced Allie, and the small family welcomed her as a part of it.
When Rayne and Allie were 20, they were full on love birds. They were inseperable, but one day, Allie found out she was pregnant. She told Rayne, fearing he would betray and abandon her, but when she told him he picked her up, swinging her around in a circle in excitement. He then kissed her passionately, and put his hand to her belly. He vowed to protect his son or daughter, as well as Allie, forever.
They were 21 the day of the delivery. Rayne stayed by Allie's side, holding her hand firmly yet gently. When a cry filled the air, everyone rejoiced.
"Congratulations, it's a boy."
Rayne couldn't be more thrilled. At that moment, he got down on one knee, taking Allie's hand in his. He proposed in front of the doctors, and Allie accepted, tears in her eyes.
That was just the beginning of Rayne's life, and it just got more grand from there on out. He ended up with a total of three children, two boys, and the youngest being a girl. While happiness doesn't last forever, as he was crushed when he lost his wife, Allie, to cancer. But he kept on going for the sake of his family, and now, he knew, it was time to reunite with his love.
The chair stopped rocking.
