A/N: Phantom fanvids give you the funniest ideas. Here's an alternative to "You and I" to the tune of "If I Never Knew You" from "Pocahontas" based on the version by Hal Ketchum and Shelby Lynne (C) Disney etc. Enjoy! I would fix the spacing if I could
ANATOLY
If I'd never lost you,
If I'd never felt this pain
I would have no need to gain
some petty victory.
And if I never broke you,
I would never have a clue
how, at last, I found in you
the true way to be free.
In a lifetime of a year,
full of games and lies,
I betrayed the truth, so clear,
in your eyes, those shining eyes.
The world's so hateful to you.
I would live my whole life through
loved forever,
if I'd never lost you.
FLORENCE
If I'd never lost you,
I would fin'ly know I'm real
Fin'ly saying just what I feel:
this love, so strong and true.
The world's so hateful to you.
I would live my whole life through
loved forever,
if I'd never lost you.
ANATOLY
I thought that love could still be beautiful.
FLORENCE
Somehow the world seemed so bright.
TOGETHER
I never knew that worthless goals could be so wrong.
All they'd left us were these wond'rings in the night,
but still the pain can tell us we were right.
FLORENCE
If I'd never lost you,
ANATOLY
(There's no move that I regret…)
FLORENCE
if I'd never felt this pain,
ANATOLY
(since the moment that we met.)
FLORENCE
I would have no need to gain
ANATOLY
(If that moment fled too fast,)
FLORENCE
some petty victory.
ANATOLY
(we're loved at last.)
TOGETHER
I thought that love could still be beautiful.
Somehow the world seemed so bright.
I thought that love could still be beautiful.
We couldn't turn our darkness into light,
but still my heart is saying we are right.
And if I never lost you...
ANATOLY
I would live my whole life through,
FLORENCE
perfect till I die,
ANATOLY
no need to know why.
TOGETHER
Loved forever
if I'd never lost you.
