Disclaimer: Mutant Enemy and Twentieth Century Fox own Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, not me. This takes place, well… sometime during the musical episode S6-07, "Once More, with Feeling." I was listening to the CD one day and thought about how this tune would have made for a great Angel/Buffy angst duet, though sadly, that was not to be (sniff), so I took matters into my own hands. Sing it to the tune of “Walk Though the Fire” from OMwF.
BUFFY:
I touch the fire and it freezes me
I look into it and it’s black
Why can't I deal?
My wounds will never heal
I want my lover back
ANGEL:
Now through the smoke she calls to me
To take her hand; to kiss her face
Wish I could go
Make my love to her known
But I can’t be in that place
ANGEL/BUFFY:
So I will walk through the fire
To you I would return
But I must walk through the fire
And let it—
ANGEL:
The sins I’ve borne, they burden me
My victims haunt me every night
Wish I could love,
’Cause then I’d rise above
But then we both would die
BUFFY:
So we are drawn to the fire
From whence we can’t return
ANGEL/BUFFY:
We have walked through the fire
And it doth—
ANGEL:
Has this done a thing to help you?
Now that I’m gone, will you pull through?
Is my Buffy sliding off her cup?
BUFFY:
Angel, dear, you did it for me
And although my tears are pouring
I know you love me, ’cause you gave me up
ANGEL/BUFFY:
No easy feat,
Though, ’cause now, I feel incomplete
As we have walked through the fire
BUFFY:
So there we stood; you turned from me
Taking with you half my soul
And what I feel,
I feel this can’t be real
And now my heart is cold
ANGEL:
So there we stood; I turned from you
You know it ripped my up inside
But I had to leave,
To leave you without me
So you yourself could find
BUFFY:
I walk through life
Now wanting to fall on a knife
ANGEL/BUFFY:
’Cause we have walked through the fire
For long ago we learned
That we must walk through the fire
Although it burns
Though it burns
Though it burns
Though it burns
