Inu Yasha
"I'm Dreaming of You Tonight"
(Kagome is laying on her stomach on her bed and gazing out the window at the stars)
/Late at night when all the world is sleeping I stay up and think of you/
(Close-up of Kagome's somewhat entranced face)
/And I wish on a star, that somewhere you are thinking of me too/
(View of the window, a shooting star flies by; the scene descends and Inu Yasha is seen from the backside sitting in a tree, legs crossed, stargazing)
/'Cause I'm dreaming of you tonight/
(Inu Yasha's view of the sky shows Kagome holding a small pillow)
/Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight/
(Sky view turns into actual Kagome, who hugs her pillow and looks lonely)
/And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be/
(Kagome sprawls out on her back and stares at the ceiling)
/Than here in my room, dreaming about you and me/
(Kagome smiles and closes her eyes)
/Wonder if you've ever seen me, and I/
(Flashback of Kagome and Inu Yasha sitting together, but Inu Yasha is looking the other way on purpose)
/Wonder if you know I'm there/
(Flashback of Inu Yasha being seduced by Kikyou while Kagome, trapped, fruitlessly tries to get his attention.)
/If you looked in my eyes, and you see what's inside would you even care?/
(Flashback of Inu Yasha and Kagome looking into each others eyes [you know, right before the Kikyou stuff happened])
/I just wanna hold you close, but so far/
(Back to Kagome on her bed, but now she's frowning)
/All I have are dreams of you/
(Flashback of a dream where Inu Yasha holds Kagome in his arms and just as their lips meet, the scene wavers like water ripples and Inu Yasha suddenly disappears.)
/So I wait for the day, for the courage to say how much I love you/
(The dream Kagome looks out sadly, somewhat downward, the background reverts to her room)
/Yes I do/
(Kagome looks up a little, suddenly)
/I'll be dreaming of you tonight/
(Kagome turns over onto her side, blink dreamily, and falls asleep)
/Till tomorrow, I'll be holding you tight./
(Scene changes to Inu Yasha in the tree, only this time from the side. He is gazing upwards, seemingly lonely; close-up of his crossed arms show them tighten, as if hugging himself)
/And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be/
(Scene changes to Shippo, sleeping curled up at the base of the tree. Something shiny falls on his face and he twitches awake. He wipes off a water droplet and looks up, as if expecting rain)
/Than here in my room, dreaming about you and me./
(Close-up of Inu Yasha's face, now teary-eyed, with a shiny streak down his face)
/Coragao/
(Inu Yasha is seen from the backside, watching a shooting star go by)
/Can't stop dreaming of you/
(Scene reverts to Kagome sleeping, but now there are tears in her eyes)
/Nco pode de parar de pensar em ti/
(Kagome dreams of her and Inu Yasha, smiling, and Inu Yasha is hugging her from behind)
/Como que nessisito/
(Inu Yasha is asleep in the tree, but still sitting up, his head bowed forward; in his dream, Kagome is smiling at him)
/Mi amor
Late at night when all the world is sleeping/
(Inu Yasha suddenly wakes up and jumps out of the tree)
/I stay up and think of you/
(On her bed, Kagome opens her eyes, there is a shadow over her)
/I still can't believe/
(Kagome's eyes suddenly pop wide open)
/That you came up to me and said "I love you"/
(Inu Yasha is standing over her, smiling, then lip syncs 'I love you' with music)
/I love you too/
(Kagome's face lights up with joy and she lip syncs 'I love you too')
/Now I'm dreaming of you tonight/
(Kagome rolls over quick and kneels up on her bed to hug Inu Yasha)
/Till tomorrow and for all of my life/
(They embrace tightly)
/And there's nowhere in the world I'd rather be./
(They gaze into one another's eyes)
/Than here in my room, dreaming with you here with me!/
(Slowly, they lean in and kiss deeply)
(Scene slowly backs away from them; view of the window shows Shippo poke his head quietly over the sill, see them and smile, wagging his tail; scene slowly goes out the window behind Shippo and to the night sky, where a shooting star goes by)
