AUTHOR's NOTE: Yaa, minna-san! Just a li'l something I wrote before
I go back to school this June. Well, as you would see, I am a die-hard
Utena-Touga fan-- so for all of you out there who likes Utena with
Himemiya or Akio... GO TO... umm... ah, go to another fanfic! Yeah,
that's what I was supposed to say. Well, I hope you enjoy reading this.
Ja!
DISCLAIMER: The characters used in this fanfic are properties of
whoever wrote Utena, made the anime, the producers, etc., etc.

I'll Be --- Edwin McCain
The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath
Touga stops in his path down the corridor only to gaze at
Utena walking in the school grounds
Emeralds from mountains thrust towards the sky
Never revealing their depth
Somebody calls Utena from behind. She turns and greets
Akio with one of her warmest smiles.
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
Touga's smile melts as he shook his head in regret. He sighed
and continued on his way, finally deciding to do what he
should have done a long time ago.
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
Touga warns Utena about the real Akio. Utena nods, saying
she already knows but is ready to face him no matter what the
cause so that she could free Himemiya.
I'll Be your cryin' shoulder
Touga tells Utena he loves her. She is taken aback by his
sincerity.
I'll Be love suicide
He asks if he could be her prince even for just that single
night. Utena agrees.
I'll Be better when I'm older
Touga takes her hand and the two of them take a stroll
towards the arena.
I'll Be the greatest fan of your life
Touga and Utena sit by a ledge and look up at the stars.
Utena, for the first time, leans on Touga, trusting, caring and
understanding.
Rain falls angry on the tin roof
As we lie awake in my bed
Touga challenges Utena to their final duel, hoping to stop
her from fighting Akio.
You're My Survival, You're My Living Proof
My love is alive and not dead
He fights with all his might, but Utena still defeats him.
Tell me that we belong together
Dress it up with the trappings of love
Utena bid him and Saionji her goodbye. The two watch as
she leave to face Akio.
I'll be captivated, I'll hang from your lips
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above
Touga turns around, stopping himself from chasing after her
-- his hands clenched into fists beside him.
I'll Be your cryin' shoulder
Touga looks up the sky and remembers when Utena first
enters Ohtori University.
I'll Be love suicide
He remembers when she arrived at the ball wearing the dress
he sent her, and how beautiful she was that night.
I'll Be better when I'm older
He remembers when he had once found her inside a coffin
and gave her the ring she was wearing at present.
I'll Be the greatest fan of your life
He thinks... he should've been her prince. He was the one who
was there in the past, not Akio, yet he still chose not to
point that out.
I've dropped out, burned up, fought my way back from the dead
Utena begins the duel with Akio. She recalls the night before
she spent with Touga and what a fool she was for not seeing
what the real Akio is like.
Tuned in, turned on, remembered the things you said
Akio slashes the rose off Utena's chest. As it fell, Utena fell
as well, looking up at the sky.
I'll Be your cryin' shoulder
Touga closes his eyes and whispers, "Farewell, my Utena."
I'll Be love suicide
Utena sees Touga's face just before she completely
disappears and smiles.
I'll Be better when I'm older
Touga sits by the porch watching Nanami and Saionji as the
two play go-fish, and looks up at the sky again.
I'll Be the greatest fan of your life
He felt a void in his heart, but immediately puts aside the
idea, leaving it in the past as where his heart once belonged
to a girl who wanted to be a prince. And the girl disappears
from his thoughts forever...
