The One That Got Away (Ymir & Historia Lyric Re-Write) || Cover by Reinaeiry

The interactions between Historia and Ymir were some of my favourite moments in the anime ( I miss Ymir so much *sobs* ) so you know what I do when I like WLW characters. I write stuff about them, HAHA!

I'm just a big nerd with too much time and a flair for music I suppose.

PS. The audio kinda ends abruptly because I felt like it was too draggy and I just wanted to write a lil something for my favourite AOT ship so *looks off-screen ashamedly like a crusty dog*

LYRICS:

Ymir:
Sometime after joining, when we were cadets
You made a first impression, I’d never forget
You showed me love and kindness, a stranger you just met.

Used to steal the captains’ liquor and climb to the roof
Talk about our future like we had a clue
Never planned that one day I'd be losing you

In another life
I would be your girl
We'd keep all our promises
Be us against the world
In another life
I would choose to stay
So I don't have to say you were
The one that got away
The one that got away

The one
The one
The one…

Historia:
I was always with you, a well-known fact
Never one without the other, we made a pact
Sometimes when I miss you, I act like you aren’t gone

Then someone says my name and I’m pulled from the past
The time we had together, it went by too fast
It’s time to face the music, we were never made to last

But in another life
I would be your girl
We'd keep all our promises
Be us against the world
And in another life
I would make you stay
So I don't have to say you were
The one that got away
The one that got away

All this money can't buy me a time machine, no
Can't replace you with a million rings, no
I never told you what you meant to me (whoa)
And now I pay the price

In another life…
I would be your girl…
We'd keep all our promises
Be us against the world.

that one dislike is the captain after he realized they stole his liquor

[reynaldacontreras]

I like the whole idea of how Ymir starts it and proclaims her love, and Historia is the one that sings the rest of it because Ymir died :(

[ymirswife]

without a doubt, in ymir’s last moments all she had on her mind was historia

[jna]

This hits harder knowing Ymir is dead and Historia turned into a depressing hollow ver of herself..

[floofygreenpanda]

oh god I'm having flashbacks to the time I cried when Ymir died and Historia read her letter and I- *starts aggressive sobbing*

[bobthet-rex]

Ymir's death was one of the worst in the show.
It proved how cruel the world of AoT really is.

[ember]

They deserved to be together, and just like in the song..in another life they're happy. No pain, no titans, just them and a peaceful life.

[BlitsAzalisDash]

To everyone who has a partner, a friend, a family member, or somebody else you care about; tell them what they mean to you. Life is fleeting, nobody knows what will happen tomorrow, so make today count. It's not worth it to worry about pointless things every day.


Reinaeiry, you really outdid yourself with this cover! From the music to the vocals, it's just amazing - thank you for making & sharing your content with the world.

[InMyDrive]

Imagine if the lyrics changed from "In another life…I would be your girl…" to "In another life…I would be your bride…"

[amandaalves]

Me when I saw the notification: OMG REINAEIRY COVERED THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY
Me when I read all the title: OH NO IT'S YUMIHISU I- *almost falls from the chair*

[pinkchan]

I seriously cried at this video, it's so sad that ymir died ..

[laurenmccauley]

I will never get over how Isayama did Ymir and Historia ✋🏻😔

[dannielleanneendrenal]

Oh no...
Who's cutting the onion again?!
My Mom: Why you crying?
*She don't know I'm gae*
Me: Oh someone just broke my heart ma.
My mom: Boyfriend lah?
Me: *Dying noises* No but close.

[irahdykeabueva]

I want to imagine that in another age and in another timeline. A timeline where Eldians, Marleyans, Titans, and Shifters cease to exist. A timeline where Marleyans didn't expressed hatred, racism, and paranoia towards Eldians and where Eldians didn't expressed vengeance, genocide, and malice towards Marleyans. There would be two young-women from different backgrounds living on a ranch together, no malice or hatred expressed to one another, just love and desire for one another. A timeline where they would run-away and escape from a meaningless war to a place that they would just be themselves living peacefully. But I suppose, even a timeline of that imagination ceases to exist.

[Nazoou_Neon]

Forget Eren. Historia and Ymir were made to be together, they’re a match made in heaven. I’m sad to see Ymir go. 🥲

[squirrelismanen]

Realising that if Historia never got Ymirs letter she would still be waiting for her to come back

[mihaelateneva]

Every gay version song is a masterpiece 👌✨

[lumitygobrrrhrh]

I... I-I'm not crying you are-! **dramatically sniffs and wipes tear**

[blackstar-nrds]

Yumir and historia was one of my fav ships T T
