Lyrics by June Carter
---------------------------------------------
'I've got to return the Jewel Shards. But that means...I won't...ever be able to see InuYasha again...' Kagome thought as she sobbed uncontrollably in her room after seeing InuYasha swear to go to hell with Kikyo. 'But wait, why I do want to see InuYasha again?'
Love, is a burning thing.
And it makes, a fiery ring.
Bound, by wild desire,
I fell into a Ring of Fire.
I fell into a burning Ring of Fire.
I went down, down, down,
And the flames went higher.
And it burns, burns, burns,
The Ring of Fire
The Ring of Fire
I fell into a burning Ring of Fire.
I went down, down, down,
And the flames went higher.
And it burns, burns, burns,
The Ring of Fire
The Ring of Fire
'Why do I want to see him again? I shouldn't want to. He's ignorant, he's rude, he's full of selfish pride, he's full of everything I don't want in a boyfriend, yet I want to see him all the time. It can't be, it can't be, but it is. I do love him. Why? He's done this sort of thing to me before, but yet I can't live without him. Why? Why? Oh, InuYasha, I NEED YOU!' Kagome then got up and ran out of her room, back to the well and jumped in, still sobbing. She climbed back up to the top of the well, and waited, her tears drying up as she did. Eventually she saw InuYasha approach.
"Kagome, will you please stay here and continue to be with me, even though I've acted the way I have? I feel at peace when you're near. I don't feel like an outcast when you're close." InuYasha asked. Kagome slowly turned and looked at him.
"Yes, I will. I feel safe and at peace when I'm with you. I feel I can stand up to anything in the world when you're by my side, InuYasha." She got up, and took his hand, and they started to walk away from the well.
"InuYasha, I know Kikyo means a lot to you, and that you can't ever forget about her, but try, please try to not do something like that again." Kagome said as they continued to walk.
"You have my word Kagome that I will, and I don't break my word." InuYasha replied.
"Please don't, and do your best to keep it for me."
The taste, of love is sweet
When hearts, like ours meet.
I fell for you like a child.
Oh, but the fire went wild.
I fell into a burning Ring of Fire.
I went down, down, down,
And the flames went higher.
And it burns, burns, burns,
The Ring of Fire
The Ring of Fire
I fell into a burning Ring of Fire.
I went down, down, down,
And the flames went higher.
And it burns, burns, burns,
The Ring of Fire
The Ring of Fire

Sorry I haven't put up a new chapter to 'Green-clothed Warrior' in so long, but the fire to write kind of went out again in me. I've got a new chapter for 'Green-clothed Warrior' in the works, and it's about halfway to three-quarters of a way finished. You want to see it, I highly suggest you guys start hounding mevia email to finish it, but NO FLAMING PLEASE.Keep it limited to positive encouragement. Maybe that will help to get the writing fire going again.
Anyway, GOOD NEWS! My chemotherapy is now over and done with! And hopefully next month I'll get the good news from the docs that the Hodgkin's Disease is in remission! I had a birthday this month too! I turned 23 on December 12, and what I did on that day helped eventually to inspire this fanfic: I went to go see the movie 'Walk The Line' with my mother, and I'm now a huge Johnny Cash fan because of it, and that's what turned me on to this song we have here in this songfic.
