InuYasha was sitting in the big tree beside his and his Kagome's home. He had finally taken his peice of inheritence and they lived in a nice sized castle with a big iron gate and a huge yard, when I say huge I mean 200 acres of complete nature at it's finest. His father had really gone all out when he built it. There was a huge sapphire chandeliers and mirrors made out of silver and gold. There was plush furs and Western beds, so to say the least it was pretty much a dream.
it's a big estate
with wrought iron gates
and palm trees standin' tall
fancy mirrors and chandeliers
comfort wall to wall
He stared out on to the ocean, the sun was balancing on the horizone, deciding if it was time for him to sleep so the moon could rise or for him to stay awake. He had to admit the ocean air was, well nice, and Sango and Miroku always freaked out about how 'awosme' the veiw was. But InuYasha couldn't help but, well miss where he used to live. The woods in the InuYasha Forest was so soothing all the trees and the scent of timber and wild flowers. This place was great for someone like his brother, but not him the woods was for him. He knew Kagome loved him, but he loved Kikyo.
and the ocean air is so crisp and clean
and they rave about our view
but there ain't no mountian breeze
and there ain't no hickory trees
and this aint tenessee
and she ain't you
Kagome, she really was true, she really loved him. Everynight she would come to him and lay beside him. She would caress his face and whisper in his hair. He could smell the sweet scent of her love but. But he couldn't bring himself to forget Kikyo. Kikyo was his first love. He was the face he always saw when he talked to Kagome, when he looked at Kagome, even when he made love to Kagome. Somewhere deep inside he knew that she knew this. That was one of the things that really made him feel, well I guess acepted. For her to know that he didn't fully love her, but that she still stayed by his side. Leaving her friends, family, and pratcily her whole life. just for him. Even ignoring the fact that his brother loved her with all his heart, to stay with him. He knew he should be grateful, which he was, but he couldn't just forget Kikyo.
there's a bedroom suite
where she comes to me
and as her fingers touch my face
i close my eyes and fantasize
of another time and place
what she feels is so warm and real
and i know her love is true
she tires so hard to please
still i think sometimes she sees
that this ain't tennesse
and she ain't you
Yes the place was grand, maybe even to grand. No it wasn't that he could handle the responsilbites of his title, he just didn't want them. He wanted the things he loved, Kikyo and his forrest home.
it's not thats its not grand enough
and its not that im not man enough
theres just somthing easy going that I love
about you and tennesse
When the sun finally set, he mind was made up. He was going to do his duties, see to his mate and act as if everything is as it should be. But really who could he kid, maybe some people but he would always know, somewhere deep within himself, things weren't right. He missed his love, he missed his home, he just felt out of place. No matter how hard he'll ever try you can't just pull out all your roots and rip your heart out of love. He couldn't forget her. He couldn't never forget the preistess that stole his heart he could put another prietess one who he stole her heart. But he couldn't, he wouldn't, he wont forget the orginal.
so i made up my mind to learn my lines
and to try and play the part
but the part of me is in tennesse
and deep down in my heart
I miss my Smokey Mountian home
and i miss your loven'n too
and its deep inside of me
and it's always gonan be
'cause this ain't tennesse
and she aint you
