Character Songs
I have chosen the following two songs to represent Dove, because they each capture a part of her personality. "How Can I Keep From Singing?" is a serene, gentle song perfectly matching Dove, especially when she's in Druspa Tau, newly imbued with the title "Lady Dove" by the remaining followers of Terataya (whose powers she bears). "Telescope," by contrast, is a spunky, upbeat little tune, something I could imagine Dove humming while in battle, because she comes up with the best sassy one-liners while effortlessly whooping butt!

How Can I Keep From Singing? - Enya (lyrics)
My life goes on in endless song
Above earth's lamentations;
I hear the real, though far-off hymn
That hails a new creation.
Through all the tumult and the strife
I hear its music ringing;
It sounds an echo in my soul.
How can I keep from singing?
While though the tempest loudly roars,
I hear the truth, it liveth.
And though the darkness 'round me close,
Songs in the night it giveth.
No storm can shake my inmost calm
While to that rock I'm clinging;
Since love is lord of heaven and earth,
How can I keep from singing?
When tyrants tremble in their fear
And hear their death knell ringing,
When friends rejoice both far and near
How can I keep from singing?
In prison cell and dungeon vile
Our thoughts to them are winging;
When friends by shame are undefiled,
How can I keep from singing?
Telescope - Hayden Panettiere (lyrics)
Won't do no good, if you run from me
There ain't no cheatin', schemin' my heart don't see
You left your troubles in my head, in my head
You left your secrets in my bed, in my bed
You're like the cover of a book that's been read, baby
I know what line is coming next, coming next
[Chorus:]
You can't hide from me,
There ain't no tricks that you can try on me
I know your every move before you even breathe, baby
Thinking you know something I don't know
But my eyes, my eyes, my eyes are like a telescope...
You're kissing her when my head is turned
You must be crazy, baby, haven’t you learned?
You can't deceive me, silly child, silly child
I don't believe that pretty smile, pretty smile
My intuition can see for miles and miles, baby
Every little sin, and everywhere you've been
[Chorus]
You left your troubles in my head, in my head
You left your secrets in my bed...
[Chorus x2]
