An exuberant young lady of free spirit and honest heart, Rinoa, is the emotional centerpiece of Final Fantasy VIII. It is she and Squall that develop a endearing love for each other and capture one of the quintessential emotional focal points of the game. Perhaps it is her natural beauty that captivates us, or it is that embodiement of what true love is - that desire to share our hopes and dreams with someone who cares for us, and to include as a inseperable ally in our lives. Maybe it is she that will bring happiness in the form of a feather riding on the wind of passionate attraction to the young man that is Squall and warm his heart with hope for internal peace.

Hello!


Where am I going?  Who will be there for Me?


Gazing toward the Horizon I wonder...


___
"Eyes On Me"


Whenever sang my songs
On the stage, on my own
Whenever said my words
Wishing they would be heard
I saw you smiling at me
Was it real or just my fantasy
You'd always be there in the corner
Of this tiny little bar

My last night here for you
Same old songs, just once more
My last night here with you?
Maybe yes, maybe no
I kind of liked it your way
How you shyly placed your eyes on me
Oh, did you ever know?
That I had mine on you

*Darling, so there you are
With that look on your face
As if you're never hurt
As if you're never down
Shall I be the one for you
Who pinches you softly but sure
If frown is shown then
I will know that you are no dreamer

So let me come to you
Close as I wanted to be
Close enough for me
To feel your heart beating fast
And stay there as I whisper

How I loved your peaceful eyes on me
did you ever know
That I had mine on you

Darling, so share with me
Your love if you have enough
Your tears if your're holding back
Or pain if that's what it is
How can I let you know
I'm more than the dress and the voice
Just reach me out then
You will know that you're not dreaming
