I can remember taking walks by the lake with her by my side,
I was maybe 11 or 12 at the time,
We were inseparable, but strictly a platonic thing
She was a bit of a tomboy, just trying to hang
So we traveled everywhere as a duo,
I go you go, if I know you know,
I was her best friend, and of course, she was mine,
So when we snuck off on that path past Nibelheim
I knew we weren't supposed to but I did it,
Knowing full well that our parents would probably kill us,
But, she was wit it, still she let us continue,
Never was the type to pass on a good adventure,
When we saw the mountain I don't recall who decided
That it might be fun if we both tried to climb it,
So inch by inch, till we almost made it top side,
Then she grabbed my hand when she felt a rock slide,
I yelled, It might've sounded like I cried
We both crashed down on the rock floor,
A 12 foot drop, but felt like a lot more,
I black out, till the ambulance shows up
I was on crutches, but she was in a coma,
And yeah I was hurt, but I was worried bout Tifa
Her dad starts tripping, telling me I can't see her
Man, crushed like red pepper
Think I felt tears forming when he told me to forget her
Apologized forever I told him that I'd do better,
But he never ever approved of us being together
She was mad strong that was inevitable,
If you love her try lettin her go,
Pain, it felt like somebody was kickin me
Words can't express what that conversation did to me
All because of one childish mistake
I might not ever again see her beautiful face
I think I love her though
mic check 1, 2, 1-2, mic check 1, 2, 1-2
a 1-2, a 1-2, a 1-2, babygirl I want you, I want you
something about her got me so excited, I can't fight it, baby i think i like it..
I met a girl, they call her Tifa Lockheart
she came in and she stole a piece of my heart
Tell me what I need to do,
So I can tell the world about me and you,
I met a girl, they call her Tifa Lockheart
she came in and she stole a piece of my heart
Tell me what I need to do,
Ya got me its true All I need is you now
Every day for a week i went to Tifa's crib,
Brought flowers, bought soup, and whatever we could give
I used to leave em at the gate,
Cuz I know pop tired of me being at his place
Eventually Tifa recovered
And I had to tell her something I could no longer keep under cover
She was forgiving and luckily she still wanted to see me
Tell me when and where, I come through early like a preemie
You might have to sit down and brace yourself for this next thing
But I'm leaving town for Midgar next spring
And the difference is this isn't for enjoyment,
I'm not even going to find employment,
I wanna join SOLDIER and be all I can be,
Then later I'll come back for all y'all to see
Who knows? Maybe I'll be the next Sephiroth
She promised me she would be around just to see me off
Fought tears, and said she ain't want me to leave at all
She joked and said that I'd be famous
She'd read about my adventures in the daily papers
I couldn't tell her why I did it to be honest,
I wanted to be strong and prove her father wrong
So right before I left she made me make a promise,
I told her I would do it
If she ever was in bind, do you got us? Ill come to the rescue.
I couldn't let you down girl, you're just too special
Thought this talk would be the last time, I'd see her face,
But when I looked up a shooting star passed by
I closed my eyes and made a wish,
Clenched my fists and dreamt of eternal bliss,
Then was time to split,
Didn't see her till some years passed,
She needed my help, all she had to is ask. And she did.
Still beautiful like when we were kids, still love her though
