Lyrics For Final Fantasy X-2 Songs, English Version Performed by Jade from Sweetbox Provided By Agent0042 and MANDYKYEYE (real Emotion) real Emotion What can I do for you What can I do for you What can I do for you What can I do for you I can hear you What can I do for you What can I do for you What can I do for you Far beyond the hazy borders of my heart I can see a place It's something like this Every now and then I don't know what to do Still I know that I can never go back All the things I've seen In those hazy dreams Can't compare to what I'm seeing now Everything's so different That it brings me to my knees And though, I know, the world of real Emotion Has surrounded me I won't give into it Now, I know, that forward Is the only way my heart Can go I hear your voice calling out to me You'll never be alone What can I do for you What can I do for you What can I do for you What can I do for you I can hear you And if I find the real without emotion Has surrounded me And I can't go on And you are there The moment that I close my eyes You comfort me We are connected for all of time I'll never be alone And oh, I know, the world of real Emotion Has surrounded me I won't give into it Now, I know, that forward Is the only way my heart Can go I hear your voice calling out to me You'll never be alone What can I do for you What can I do for you What can I do for you I can hear you I can hear you Final Fantasy X-2 Concert Version I know that you're hiding things Using gentle words to shelter me Your words were like a dream But dreams could never fool me, not that easily. I acted so distant then Didn't say goodbye before you left But I was listening You'll fight your battles far from me, far too easily. "Save your tears, 'cause I'll come back" I could hear that you whispered as you walked through that door But still I swore To hide the pain I when turned back the pages Shouting might have been the answer What if I'd cried my eyes out and begged you not to depart? But now I'm not afraid to say what's in my heart! 'Cause a thousand words Called out through the ages They'll fly to you Even though I can't see I know they're reaching you Suspended on silver wings Oh, a thousand words, 1000 embraces Will cradle you, making all of Your weary days seem far away They'll hold you foreverrrrrrrrr! Oh, a thousand words (a thousand words) Have never been spoken (oh yeah) They'll fly to you They'll carry you home (carry you home) And back into my arms Suspended on silver wings (on silver wings!) And a thousand words (oh!) Called out through the ages (called through the ages!) They'll cradle you (oh yeah!) Turning all of the loneliness to only days (holy days!) They'll hold you foreverrrrrrrrr! Ohhhhhhhh, a thousand words. Orchestrated Version I know that you're hiding things Using gentle words to shelter me Your words were like a dream But dreams could never fool me, not that easily. I acted so distant then Didn't say goodbye before you left But I was listening You'll fight your battles far from me, far too easily. "Save your tears, 'cause I'll come back" I could hear that you whispered as you walked through that door But still I swore To hide the pain when I turned back the pages Shouting might have been the answer What if I'd cried my eyes out and begged you not to depart? But now I'm not afraid to say what's in my heart! Though a thousand words Have never been spoken They'll fly to you Crossing over the time and distance holding you Suspended on silver wings And a thousand words, 1000 confessions Will cradle you, making all of the pain You feel seem far away They'll hold you foreverrrrrrrrr! The dream isn't over yet Though I often say I can't forget I still relive that day You've been there with me all the way I still hear you say: "Wait for me, I'll write you letters." I could see how you stammered with your eyes to the floor But still I swore To hide the doubt when I turned back the pages Anger might have been the answer What if I'd hung my head and said that I couldn't wait? But now I'm strong enough to know, it's not too late. 'Cause a thousand words Called out through the ages They'll fly to you Even though we can't see I know they're reaching you Suspended on silver wings Oh, a thousand words, 1000 embraces Will cradle you, making all of Your weary days seem far away They'll hold you foreverrrrrrrrr! Oh, a thousand words Have never been spoken They'll fly to you They'll carry you home And back into my arms Suspended on silver wings, ohhhhhh! And a thousand words Called out through the ages They'll cradle you Turning all of the loneliness to only days They'll hold you foreverrrrrrrrr! Confusing Lyrics Notes: 1. "Shouting might have been the answer" - I had this line written as "Shadow might have been the answer" because that's what it sounded like to me and also because of what the Fayth said about Shuyin being "just a shadow," but I've received a number of e-mails now that the PAL version is out that the captioning says differently and after listening some more, I'm willing to go with that. 2. On the second-to-last line, the one before the final "They'll hold you foreverrrrrrrr!," I had "only days" as "holy days" because that's what it sounded like to me, but apparently the PAL version differs with me on this as well. I still think in the concert version, when it's echoed, it definitely sounds like holy days, so I'm leaving the echo as that but changing the rest to "only days." With the PAL version updates in place and two recent corrections for "real Emotion," I don't think that there are any more mistakes. So this is the final version, really, really this time. Updates: May 14, 2004 - shades26 corrected the "stared" error. April 23, 2004 - I added two corrections to "real Emotion," courtesy of ayanamirei928 - thanks! April 18, 2004 - I finally added lyrics for real Emotion. Thanks to MANDYKYEYE for these lyrics. February 28, 2004 - Made corrections based on the PAL version of the game. No, I'm not listing everyone here who e-mailed me about this, but thanks for your help. February 17, 2004 - Document released.
