Chapter 10: The Meaning Of A Song
He looks at Kagome, and sees that he loves the way she works so hard on her assignments and other documents. "Do you need any help, Kagome?" he asks as he comes to her. "Maybe, the thing is for our assignment. We had to sing one of our favorite songs to the class. I was wondering for which song would be best for me to sing?" Inuyasha browses the music, finding something good. "How about this one?" He points to 'Laura Paulsini-The Extra Mile.' Kagome turns to him, "Have you ever heard this one before?" Inuyasha shakes his head. "No, but I would like to hear it though." He said politely. She clicks the mp3 then the music begins to play
Countless eyes are watching i'm gonna freeze this space and time straight as the arrow flies i know it won't be easy cos you're the light that makes me shine straight as the arrow flies (go the extra mile) in the end straight as the arrow flies i will scale the heights if i believe Knowin' it would be worthwhile
in this our finest hour
it's time to realize the dream
and who we really are
rise to meet the call
seize the moment, make it mine
and through it all
i'll run toward the finish line
with all the strength i've found
my feet won't touch the ground
i will scale the heights if i believe
your wings of faith will carry me
i'll go the distance just to reach
the arms i'm running to
i'll go the extra mile for you
to make you understand
i wanna take the glory
and put it in your hands
you're the hero in my eyes
win or lose, do or die
i'm aimin' high
i'll run toward the finish line
with all the strength i've found
my feet won't touch the ground
i will scale the heights if i believe
your wings of faith will carry me
i'll go the distance just to reach
the arms i'm running to
i'll go the extra mile for you
(go the extra mile) i wanna be able to say
i gave all of me for the world to see
and i would do it all again
i'd go the extra mile for you
i'll run toward the finish line
with all the strength i've found
my feet won't touch the ground
your wings of faith will carry me
i'll go the distance just to reach
the arms i'm running to
i'll go the extra mile for you
I would go the extra mile for you
After the song, Inuyasha understands what the song was about. "This is one of my favorite songs in my life. It's about going the distance no matter how far it is." Kagome explains. "Okay it's my turn now." Inuyasha said. Kagome passes the mouse to him. He double clicks of his iTunes app. "I want you to close your eyes for this one." Kagome did what she was told. 'I have to find a love song that she can like, expressing my feelings to her.' He thought to himself as he keeps on browses through the list. He finally finds one, double clicks it, and then it starts playing.
Nickelback-Far Away
This time, This place [CHORUS] On my knees, I'll ask [CHORUS] So far away I wanted
Misused, Mistakes
Too long, Too late
Who was I to make you wait
Just one chance
Just one breath
Just in case there's just one left
'Cause you know, you know, you know
I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore
Last chance for one last dance
Cause with you, I'd withstand
All of hell to hold your hand
I'd give it all
I'd give for us
Give anything but I won't give up
Cause you know, you know, you know
I love you
I have loved you all along
And I miss you
Been far away for far too long
I keep dreaming you'll be with me
and you'll never go
Stop breathing if
I don't see you anymore
(So far away)
Been far away for far too long
So far away
(So far away)
been far away for far too long
But you know, you know, you know
I wanted you to stay
Cause I needed
I need to hear you say:
I love you
(I love you)
I have loved you all along
And I forgive you
(and I forgive you)
For being away for far too long
So keep breathing
Cause I'm not leaving you anymore
Believe in
Hold on to me and never let me go
Keep breathing
Hold on to me...never let me go
(Keep breathing)
Hold on to me...never let me go
Kagome begins to cry in the end of the song, realizing how much Inuyasha has been feeling about. "Kagome?" Inuyasha asks as she calms down. "Are you okay?" Kagome looks to him, feeling the same way as him. She stands up, and walks to his window. "Inuyasha, while I was at school, I was never loved from anyone there. I was left alone, no protection, no care, none whatsoever. All I did to get through was to get my years over with, and get out of the hellish school." As she place her fingers on the glass, and looks down to the streets below. Inuyasha comes to her, and holds her tightly around her waist, turning her around. "Kagome, I was just like you. Nothing but an outcast, not accepted to anything at my school, not being looked after when getting blamed for anything I didn't do. Always held after school for detention. People didn't even believe what I say to them." Kagome couldn't take it anymore, and buries herself into him. "I believe you, in everything you say. I'm not like them. I didn't want to be like them." Inuyasha loosens his grip, and holds her chin up to look into her chocolate eyes, wiping her tears off her face. "Kagome, when you were unconscious, I vowed myself to protect you from now on." Kagome nodded. Couldn't handle the depression anymore, they kiss, passionately.
