Note: I do not own Cowboy Bebop in any way, shape or form, even if it is
the best anime in the whole world
Stargazing Dreamaker
Now look what you've done.
Back where I come from,
This'd be called heartache,
A headache,
A hard choice to make.
Before you, I was alright
Just winging it out of sight;
No one to care about,
Just play the roundabout,
Living life in and out.
Now, look what you've done
I thought I'd come here to have fun
And now look where I am?
In a real jam
When we met I thought
We'd have always fought
With you being a real jerk
And all your dirty work
Down where the lowlifes lurk.
I was just along for the ride
Take it all in stride
Make a quick buck,
And with a little luck,
Wouldn't get too moonstruck.
And now look at me.
Nothing ever comes for free.
At first I'd thought it would go away;
All these words I wanted to say
When I woke up each day
And found you weren't here;
That unconquerable fear,
That one day I'd lose you;
One I'd gotten so used to,
One who could see true.
And can't you imagine
How terribly tragic
It was when I realized
You were already tied,
Had another woman for your side?
I could see from the start
If you'd have been smart
You'd forget about her
Stop being a dreamer
Or a stargazing philosopher.
But you couldn't let go
Just had to be a Romeo
Keep searching for a fantasy,
Where you could be free.
Because I can see through the veil
Down to where you're frail
Where you're lonely and scared
Where you wish someone cared
And the world isn't fair.
I wasn't going to get involved,
It wasn't for me to solve.
And now look at me.
Just another jaded beauty
Who ran in independently
And got tangled in despair
Far beyond repair.
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me?
I don't want to see you die
Because no tears I cry
Can make the dead alive.
And yet I see you every day
Just wasting your life away
Looking for a sign
Of your lost sunshine;
Are you blind?
Why can't you see the truth
That I'm the one meant for you?
I feel your heart so close to me
I'm afraid to breathe
In case it's a dream.
If I could have just one chance
I'd take you from this fatal dance.
We'd fly away into the stars
Go so far
We'd heal the scars;
Find a place for you and me
Where we could live happily
And start a new life
One without sorrow and strife
(Maybe even husband and wife?)
But you wouldn't let go.
Even then, I know
You'd still sit and wait
For a forgotten fate
Until it's too late.
You could have paradise,
But it would never suffice.
So I guess I'll continue this pantomime
Until there is a place and time
When I can be your Valentine.
-Faye
