Faded Dreams

"This is the last time we fight together."

Those were the words I said

"When we beat Yevon, I'll disappear,"

Because I'm already dead

If I had my way I'd never leave

I want to be on Spira with you

Zanarkand can wait forever

Because our love is right and true

But as the last strike of the sword

Crosses Yu Yevon's chest

The time for me to leave is sooner

To be put to eternal rest

I can feel myself fading away

Turning into a distant memory

But one last hug from you is all I want

One last kiss, one last breath will satisfy me

You shake your head for me to stay

But we both know that can not be

But I want you to know that I love you

For all of eternity

"I have to go," I say

My voice catching in my throat

I walk towards the edge of the Airship

To be remembered by Yuna is my only hope

A scurry of hurried footsteps

are racing towards me

I turn around and hold out my arms

But touch is an absent certainty

You fall helplessly through my arms

And my emotions are showing through

Then you whisper three words that changed me forever

Those three words were "I love you."

I turn and walk towards you

Hoping to change fate

I wrap my arms around you

So that neither of us can escape

For an instant I was whole again

As our hearts were intertwined

But slowly I walked through you again

And I couldn't waste anymore time

As I jumped off the ship

And soared through the air

I knew you knew that I loved you

And that I would always be there

Auron, Braska, and Jecht

I can see them through the brilliant blue

And then I realized something, Yuna

I'm happy I died instead of you.
