This is not my best video. Its fairly anti climatic, yet it flows rather well. In fact, its kinda rubbish but the song is OH SO FITTING. A very hard song to do, more so with the lack of Zerith clips. The Zerith art at the end belongs to respective owners.

Aerith waits in vain for her love, Zack Fair, to return to her, his letters the only indication that he is alive. When the letters stop coming, Aerith fears the worst.

Two days past eighteen
He was waiting for the bus in his army green
Sat down in a booth in a cafe there
Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
He's a little shy so she gives him a smile
And he said would you mind sittin' down for a while
And talking to me,
I'm feeling a little low
She said I'm off in an hour and I know where we can go

So they went down and they sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
I got no one to send a letter to
Would you mind if I sent one back here to you

Chorus: I cried
Never gonna hold the hand of another guy
Too young for him they told her
Waitin' for the love of a travelin' soldier
Our love will never end
Waitin' for the soldier to come back again
Never more to be alone when the letter said
A soldier's coming home

So the letters came from an army camp
In California then Vietnam
And he told her of his heart
It might be love and all of the things he was so scared of
He said when it's getting kinda rough over here
I think of that day sittin' down at the pier
And I close my eyes and see your pretty smile
Don't worry but I won't be able to write for awhile

[Chorus]

One Friday night at a football game
The Lord's Prayer said and the Anthem sang
A man said folks would you bow your heads
For a list of local Vietnam dead
Crying all alone under the stands
Was a piccolo player in the marching band
And one name read and nobody really cared
But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair

[Chorus x2]

  • Ne, I started crying when I heard and watched this. This fits this pairing so completely. But yea..... I have ta agree with lonelymiracle: this sond sounds like it was made for them. I have not found a song that fit a pairing as well as this one did for Zack and Aerith. Good job.

  • i love this song

  • This song sums up Zack and Aerith so well!

    Their story in a song.

    I almost cryed.

    5/5

  • Sob. This is really good. I am almost crying right now.

  • Where could i get this AMV? I love it i want to play it on my PSP, please

  • I was listening to this song in the car a couple of hours ago and heard this song thinking it would be PERFECT with this couple! Yay for ZackXAeris!

  • sadly i don't know who Zack is but i think this AMV is really good, perfectly timed. 5/5

  • I vote that you redo this video with the new Crisis Core footage. I'm sure it will be ten thousand times better.
