Sayonara [Another Anime Con 2008 Best Romance]

*New* You can download this video (high quality) here: http://www.a-m-v.org/video/155931 However, please do not repost it on YouTube. I'd really appreciate it a lot if no one does that! ^^ There is also a very detailed description describing the lyrics and creation of this AMV at that link since all of it won't fit in the YouTube description.

If you don't want to download the video but want higher quality, make sure to add &fmt=18 at the end of my video's url to see it in higher quality. Like this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtIQ73x_Vnc&fmt=18
Adding the &fmt=18 sometimes seems to make it a little jumpy and slightly off sync though. Make sure you let it load up all the way if you want to view it in high quality on YouTube or it will not play well at all.

Song Lyrics:
Of all the things I've believed in
I just want to get it over with
Tears form behind my eyes
But I do not cry
Counting the days that pass me by

I've been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing are starting to get old
It feels like I'm starting all over again
The last three years were just pretend
And I said,

Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to

I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems that I can't live a day without you
Closing my eyes and you chase my thoughts away
To a place where I am blinded by the light
But it's not right

Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to

And it hurts to want everything and nothing at the same time
I want what's yours and I want what's mine
I want you
But I'm not giving in this time

Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
The one thing that I tried to hold on to

And when the stars fall
I will lie awake
You're my shooting star

I hope anyone who watches this video likes it and can see that I put a lot of effort into it. ^_^

i haven't even watched this anime and im just as angry at the ending as everyone else!

[Hrumkiller]

It is very rare for me to cry while watching an amv, and even rarer if I've never seen the anime. However, this superb work of art that you have created has released a flood the likes of which I have never seen from behind my eyes The mark of the best amvs is that while you're watching, you stop hearing the song. The video blends seemlessly with the music, and the creator's feelings and intentions flow through you in an angelic harmony with the core of your being. This is one of those. Thank you

[Legorocksable1]

[ECZKID]

[ECZKID]

I actually ended up watching this anime and

S P O I L E R

I am actually glad that Haruka does not get Taka because she's TOO good for him! He's a little bitch and he needs to be with the blue bitch Mitsuki.

[MissCreativeWriter]

TT.TT *shocked* I thought this was going to be one of those classic they're-saying-goodbye-because­-one-of-them-is-leaving-for-Am­erica scenarios but then....wow. I've never seen it but I was on the verge of tears anyway. Thank you for uploading. I don't think I'll watch the anime though, I would cry too much.
