I come back to this, among other songs, and realize how long i have been a fan/subscribed. I remember i was a freshman in high school going full weeb and one night wondered if someone made a crossing field cover because I loved SAO sooo soo much at the time and found this gem. I remember listening to it non stop and thought to myself you had an awesome voice. I took a break from anime and well that side of my life but when i came back to anime this was the first thing i searched up and made me so happy to hear it and see how far you went over 3 years. I doubt you'll see this and other commenters won't care but you are awesome and i hope you keep making more covers and original music!

Remember when Asuna used to be a badass warrior-woman instead of a pansy healer with a branch?

"It's tempting to close your eyes and turn from the world, but it's bittersweet, like you've somehow missed a beat, with no restart..."

The most beautiful line I've ever heard in any song that I heard in my life. SAO might not be perfect, but Oh God the soundtracks are just amazing.

........
I was never right for the hero type of role - I admit it
With my heart shivering in fear,
I can see today's reflected in each past tear
Even so, it has been calling the heavens to me
But I cannot hide
All the emptiness inside
My fleeting heart

Once in my dreams, I rose and soared
No matter how I'm knocked around or beaten down
I will stand up, restored
All of my love has yet to wake
I know your strength is what I lack
You've got my back and now that I've got yours
I have you to thank for lighting up the dark
Because you're here with me our dreams will soar free
Forever

I wanna always be with you
I'll give you everything I have

I could never find the light to guide me through the night
And with one touch, I'd recall every memory
All too precious to not hold them all close to me
It's tempting to close your eyes and turn from the world
But it's bittersweet
Like you've somehow missed a beat with no restart

When every wish has overlapped
You'll realize if you carry on with every dawn
Your hesitation fades
All of your scars will disappear
I will become your sword and shield
This crossing field's the path that we select
The promise we made will last for all our days
If it's our bonds we live by I will put my
Faith in you

(Instrumental) 

I only need one miracle
Can you not hear me call at all?
Until that day I'll keep screaming your name

Once in my dreams, I rose and soared
No matter how I'm knocked around or beaten down
I will stand up, restored
All of my love has yet to wake
I know your strength is what I lack
You've got my back and now that I've got yours
I have you to thank for lighting up the dark
Because you're here with me our dreams will soar free
Forever

I wanna always be with you
I wanna hold you tight right now
I swear that I'll be who you choose
I'll give you everything I have

Kirito and Asuna's love and relationship is one of the main reasons I love the show
