Lay a whisper on my pillow
Leave the winter on the ground
I wake up lonely, there’s air of silence
In the bedroom and all around
I smile sleepily as your fingers brush my face; the rough calluses on your fingers from the hours of fighting caressing my cheek. I think that you’re probably grinning, planning to flick my nose in a moment and then feign innocent sleep when I look at you. I pretend to be annoyed when you do that, but I like it really. I guess that’s why you do it.
I roll over, revelling in the freedom I have to cuddle up to you here where no one is watching. But something isn’t right. The sheet where you’ve been lying is cold and you aren’t within reach.
Then I remember.
Touch me now, I close my eyes
And dream away...
I dream of you every night. I dream of what could have been. It’s always the same dream - my life as it is, but with you still here. Every morning I think that you’re here with me, but the sun always brings the truth when it shines through the gap in the curtains.
It must have been love, but it's over now
It must have been good, but I lost it somehow
It must have been love, but it's over now
From the moment we touched till the time had run out
I just wish the dreams could be true. I remember the times on my pilgrimage when I was shivering by the campfire, and you insisted that I cuddle up to you to sleep. Everyone thought it was so funny, but I was so embarrassed because no matter how I thought of it, it was still sleeping with you and that made me wonder… but that never happened. Maybe if I hadn’t been so tentative, maybe if I were more like Lulu or Rikku… I loved loving you, but I didn’t know what to do.
Make believing we're together
That I'm sheltered by your heart
But in and outside I turn to water
Like a teardrop in your palm
And it's a hard winter's day
I dream away...
Rikku’s always telling me about her boyfriends. There was an Al Bhed that she liked, then there was a man from Kilika and one or two from Luca. Lulu tells me about Wakka, too, but thankfully she doesn’t tell me as much as Rikku does. I don’t really want to know, because it always reminds me what I don’t have, and that’s you.
It must have been love, but it's over now
It was all that I wanted, now I'm living without
It must have been love, but it's over now
It's where the water flows, it's where the wind blows
It must have been love, but it's over now
It must have been good, but I lost it somehow
It must have been love, but it's over now
From the moment we touched till the time had run out
I wish I hadn’t wasted so much time. I wish that you could come back, that you could be real instead of hidden inside my heart. And I wish that I had made you mine…
