Oceans apart
Day after day
And I slowly go insane.
I hear your voice
On the line
But it doesn't stop the pain.
A young teenage girl, only seventeen, sits atop the bars of a swing set at the local park, one of her haunts as a young child. She looks to the satiny, clear blue sky and begins to swing her legs. She is wearing pale brown tights, thin and transparent, and a small pleated white skirt, even in the cool Autumn winds.
If I see you next to never
Then how can we say 'forever'?
Wherever you go,
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you.
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you.
She seems to be waiting. She sighs and lets herself fall off, landing perfectly on her feet due to her cheerleading training. She stretches her arms to the air, subsequently bringing her top up which shows her abdomen, but she shrieks as she feels someone behind her poke her belly gently. She falls into his arms in a ticklish heap. "Syaoran!" she scolds, stroking her hand over his cheek.
I took for granted
All the times
That I thought would last somehow.
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
But I can't get near you now.
"Do you have to go soon?" the girl asks, pushing her fawn hair away from her jade eyes, and yells in delight, wrapping her arms around his neck as he shakes his head.
"I love you Sakura," Syaoran says gently, cupping her face and kissing her. Sakura collapses to her knees and lets happy tears wash over her face, sweeping away any doubts of her love for Syaoran.
"I love you too," she smiles, shakily getting to her feet.
Oh can't you see it baby?
You've go me going crazy.
Syaoran smiles and brings Sakura closer for another kiss, and as their lips meet a strong breeze sweeps over them and ruffles their hair, pushes against them and whips Sakura's skirt around her thighs. Overhead, the tree they are standing under gives way to Winter and lets its last three leaves fly away.
Wherever you go,
Whatever you do,
I will be right here waiting for you.
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you.
This time, the cherry blossom trees are all in bloom and the delicate, pale pink petals swoop down and land on a young woman of twenty with shoulder-length beige hair and a long, pale pink dress, so pale it is almost white. By her side is a man, age also age 20, in a dark suit with his arm around the girl's waist, and to the side of them is another woman with long lavender hair twisted into many braids around her head, wearing a short blue dress, filming the newlyweds.
I wonder how we can survive
This romance?
But in the end,
If I'm with you
I'll take the chance.
Sakura, the woman, waves and threw the bouquet into the crowd, which Tomoyo caught. Sakura squealed in delight and hugged her friend, breaking away from her as she was swept off her feet by her new husband.
"How could I have ever waited for this?" she murmured, curling up next to him in the car that was taking them to the hotel.
Oh can't you see it baby?
You've got me going crazy.
Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you.
Waiting for you.
About twelve, almost thirteen, years later, Sakura sits on the floor with her children, almost-teenager Shizuka and 4 year old Lei-Fang, talking to Shizuka and holding Lei-Fang, who is sleeping in her arms.
'I'm so glad I waited for him… Syaoran, I'll always be waiting for you…'
