Soon

Soon baby I will cry my last tear
Soon I will be over you
Soon darling all these tears won't be here
Soon you know that I will be over you
Soon

All these people whom I grew up with.  I shared with them everything.  And
now I share with them the worst pain I have ever felt.  How could this
happen, it's all my fault, he was protecting me

One night baby you won't be in my dreams
One night I'll finally make it through
A night darling I won't call out your name
I'll be in this place
I will be over you
Soon

"HEERO!" I hate waking up like this.  I'm so sweaty and cold.  I've never
been this alone.  I dreamed about that day again.  In the gardens behind my
house.  I smiled at him, and he smiled back at me, one of those rare smiles
that could only be seen when we were truly alone.  Then the shots range out,
I screamed.  Oh how I wish I could have screamed just a little bit louder,
maybe then someone would have heard me.  I could still feel his warm blood on
my hands as I stroked his face.  He was crying

Soon as the mountains turn to rivers
Soon as sea turns into sand
Soon as the sun comes up at midnight
That's how soon that
All the hurt will end
But 'til then I'll just pretend
It will be over
Over
I keep telling myself I'll forget you someday soon
Soon

I remember what he said to me, as he drew is last precious breaths.  "Relena,
I have no regrets.  My life for a time was not empty.  It's okay, because I
got to have you.  I love you."

Soon as the mountains turn to rivers
Soon as sea turns into sand
Soon as the sun comes up at midnight
That's how soon that
All the hurt will end
But 'til then I'll just pretend
It will be over
Over
I keep telling myself I'll forget you someday
Soon

I sat there with him in my arms as he closed his eyes, took in one last
jagged breath and went limp.  That is when I started to cry.  Holding him
closer to me.  He was still so warm.  But soon that warmth faded.  As people
scurried about us.  Checking to see if at least I was okay.  But, no matter
how hard they tried; they could not separate me and Heero.  I blatantly
refused to let go.

Soon baby I will cry my last tear
Soon you know that I will be over you
Soon darling I won't call out your name
I'll be in this place
I'll be over you soon
I'll be over you soon baby
I'll be over you soon
Soon
I'll be over you soon

Here I am now.  With my brother's hand on my shoulder, staring at his
gravestone.  I put my hand below my stomach, stroking lightly my unborn
child.  As night falls I am the only one still here, now I am alone with him,
I speak.  "Heero, I love you.  I'm sorry I never got a chance to tell you
that I was pregnant." I smile weakly, "You would have been a great father." I
give in to my sorrow and fall to the ground, holding the cold stone with all
the strength I have left.  "You would have be the greatest father"
