Terrible Things - Mayday Parade
By the time I was your age, I'd give anything
To fall in love truly, was all I could think
That's when I met your mother, the girl of my dreams
The most beautiful woman, that I'd ever seen
She said, "Boy can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I can't help but notice, you're staring at me.
I know I shouldn't say this, but I really believe
I can tell by your eyes that you're in love with me"
Now son, I'm only telling you this...
Because life, can do terrible things
Now most of the time, we'd had too much to drink
And we'd laugh at the stars and we'd share everything
Too young to notice, and too dumb to care
Love was a story, that couldn't compare
I said, "Girl, can I tell you a wonderful thing?
I made you a present with paper and string.
Open with care now, I'm asking you, please.
You know that I love you, will you marry me?"
Now son, I'm only telling you this...
Because life, can do terrible things
You'll learn, one day, I'll hope and I'll pray
That God, shows you differently
She said, "Boy can I tell you, a terrible thing?
It seems that I'm sick and I've only got weeks.
Please, don't be sad now, I really believe
You were the greatest thing that ever happened to me"
Slow, so slow
I fell to the ground, on my knees
So don't fall in love, there's just too much to lose
If given the choice, then, I'm begging you, choose
To walk away, walk away, don't let her get you.
I can't bear to see the same happen to you.
Now son, I'm only telling you this...
...Because life, can do terrible things

Timer is 100% accurate. Started this at 11PM last night, worked on it til 2AM, woke up this morning and added the finishing touches. Now I gotta head for work, but I'm glad to have it done.
My character Kaitou, with his father Toichi.
The lyrics pretty much describe the entire scene; Yoria, Kaitou's mother, died of an illness when he was really young. His father never quite recovered from the loss, and was always warning Kaitou never to fall in love because there was to much chance of it ending badly.
As we know Kaitou didn't listen and ended up pursuing Aoko, which ended badly. However, unlike his father, he didn't let that ruin his heart forever, and later went on to fall in love with Hakuba, with a much happier ending.
