The Gift (Jim Breckman) Winter snow is falling down
Children laughing all around
Lights are turning on
like a fairy tale come true. Sitting by the fire we made
You're the answer when I prayed
I would find someone
and baby I found you. All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
from being broken apart
You gave your love away
and I'm thankful every day
for the gift. Watching as you softly sleep
What I'd give if I could keep
Just this moment
if only time stood still. But the colors fade away
And the years will make us grey
But baby in my eyes
You'll still be beautiful. All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
from being broken apart
You gave your love away
And I'm thankful every day
for the gift.
All I want is to hold you forever
All I need is you more every day
You saved my heart
from being broken apart
You gave your love away
I can't find the words to say
That I'm thankful every day
for the gift.
Days had passed, Sango lay out on the grass on her stomach her head resting in her arms her eyes were closed but she was not asleep. She was thinking. "How had this come to be? She was in love with InuYasha, InuYasha was in love with her, and it all seemed so right." She sighed and opened her eyes and stood up and looked up seeing InuYasha not to far from her, she stepped over towards him silently.
"Hey" InuYasha looked up to her and responded with a smile, it seemed so true and pure, a smile he hadn't shown in a long time. "Hey" Sango sat down beside him. "Are you happy?" She asked him. For a moment, he looked confused by the question. "I am...why do you ask?" Sango shook her head, "No reason I just wondered what makes you happy all of a sudden." InuYasha didn't have a problem responding, "I'm happy because of me and because of you and the way things are...are you happy?" Sango smiled too. "Happier than I've been in a long...long time." She leaned over and put her head against his shoulder. InuYasha smiled. "Kagome and Kikyou are not the same...yet they do have a connection, every time I'm with Kagome Id think about Kikyou, I cant live my life like that. Kikyou is gone...I can accept it just never forget it." He looked down to Sango. "There are more important things to think about." Sango was in the same frame of mind. "I was in love with Miroku, for a time, but now...I don't want to cause him pain because of my misfortune. InuYasha and I have both lost something dear to us besides...this has never felt so right before."
