Eyes on Me

Just finished playing FFVIII not too long ago. The storyline is awesome, though there are some flaws in it.

There is this song that I like; it was composed by Nobuo Uematsu, with lyrics by Kako Someya. Quite an old song, but still in the minds of many.

Eyes on Me

I never sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
I never said my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real, or just my fantasy?
You'd always be in the corner
Of this tiny little bar

My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
Oh, did you ever know
That I had my mine on you?

Darling, so there you are
With that look in your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure?
If frown is shown, then
I will know that you are no dreamer

So let me come to you
Close as I wanted to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper
How I loved your peaceful eyes on me
Did you ever know
That I had mine on you?

Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if you're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How I can tell you
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach out to me, then
You will know that you are not dreaming

Darling, so there you are
With that look in your face
As if you're hurt
As if you're down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly, but sure?
If frown is shown, then
I will know you are no dreamer

Here’s the ending scene after you defeat Sorceress Ultimecia. A very nice one I'd say; you will only understand it after you played this game...

- Part II -
