~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Is that you?
Lying there in the arms of the Doi
Is that you?
A breathing corpse, almost.
Freeze and stop, I watch the clock
Where are you? No, forget that I know where you are. Off after that magical jewel.
Another day
Not yet dawn but you're still not back.
The light goes on, the light goes off
Mere hours after you'd left I woke, still dark, your damn cat glows, did you know that?
And still you're away
Sun's up, are you still alive?
I sleep alone, eat on my own
The other's are no help, Coram's drunk stupid, even you're horse was going crazy, just like me.
'Most every night
Thankfully Thayet and Buri keep their distance too, you witched them, just as you witched me.
And now you've come home,
They brought you back, slung across a pony. You might as well been dead.
You're here with me tonight
But do I still dare?
Is that you?
The girl I loved
Is that somebody I used to know?
My love, my destiny
Are you the same girl?
Strong, determined, innocent.
That I used to kiss long ago?
That I fell in love with.
Are you the true love?
A lover, an equal
That left me and ran away with my soul?
You took my heart the moment I looked into your eyes, did you know? You're silent plea caught me for eternity.
Is that you?
I want it to be.
I never thought I'd ever see the girl again
I sat here wondering if you were dead, whether you were dying out there in the snow. Alone. Even here lying in your bed you could still die, you're so close as it is.
Its funny how over the years
I know you were only gone for one night, but it seemed like years. Waiting for you to awake feels like a lifetime.
You've still been my friend
In my heart I know that you love me, you never wanted to hurt me.
How can I resist you when I need you so?
Knowing that only makes me ache to forgive you.
There's no time for tears,
And yet I cried; as much as I care for you, I believed you'd die that night for that stupid jewel.
There's nowhere to go.
Can't you see you've trapped me into this?
Is that you?
The girl I lost to a magical jewel, and her far-away prince.
Is that somebody I used to know?
My destiny, my death.
Are you the same girl?
Headstrong, a puppet, devious.
That I used to kiss long ago?
The reason I fell apart.
Are you the true love?
A lover, a foe?
That left me and ran away with my soul?
'Cause that's what you did, snatched my soul with you magic, leaving me unclean, contaminated forever.
Is that you?
I think so.
Are you the same girl?
The redheaded flame that rekindled my Dragon heart.
Are you the right one for me?
Or are you meant for the prince, or maybe your thief?
Baby, baby is it you?
I thought so, I want so, but maybe not.
Is that you?
The one I'm walking away from, for both our sakes.
Somebody I used to know?
The kitten that, would play and love, was mine.
Are you the same girl?
A past lover, now just a friend,
Are you the same girl that I used to know?
That's how it has to be, it just has to…
Are you the true love?
The one I'll stay with for the rest of my life, until my time comes for me to die.
Is that you?
Not anymore
Is it you?
The cause I have to give my life for.
Is it you?
My life for yours?
Is that you?
Willingly I would.
Are you the same girl?
My kitten, my love.
Are you the true love?
It doesn't matter anymore
Is it you?
The one I left.
Baby is that you?
The one I loved, and will always.
