I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you go on
I could feel her emotions every time I sang. Sometimes, even when I wasn’t singing, my mind would suddenly be flooded with Lenne’s feelings and memories, and words would come tumbling out of my mouth. Words that weren’t mine, words that were Lenne’s.
Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on
They were trapped here for a thousand years, seperated and alone. But when we fell into the Farplane - there wasn’t so much me, or Lenne, we were too closely connected by then - Shuyin came for her. It was… weird, but somehow lovely… I can’t really tell which. Lenne’s feelings were powerful, and part of me was Lenne as Shuyin hugged me - us - but part of me knew I wasn’t part of that hug.
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you’re here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we’re gone
They were together for such a short time. Death cut their lives so short, but the strength of their love kept their feelings locked in Spira for a thousand years. They had a whirlwind romance, it was so short that if their feelings hadn’t been so powerful, it would barely have existed at all.
Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we’ll always go on
Lenne and Shuyin… they held on, just for that one last moment. “This moment’s enough,” she said. I guess… that’s all you need. One last moment with the one you love. It was so good to see them finally reunited, even though I wished it could be me and Tidus in their positions.
Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you’re here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
It felt so strange when Lenne walked away from me, when the feeling of her familiar presence in me vanished. It felt sad, but good. I could never be truly at home with myself when someone else was inhabiting my body. “Let’s end this. Let’s go home,” she said. I wished… I wished I could go home too. I was so happy to see them finally at peace, but I felt so alone.
You’re here, there’s nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We’ll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
Tidus, as you stand with me one last time, here in the Farplane, I realise that you’re always here with me. I wish we could hold each other forever, our arms wrapped around each other in a fierce embrace as your lips search out mine… but although that can’t happen, we’ll never be apart. It’s been a long journey for me, leading up to this moment here and now, but I’ve finally reached home.
