cTell Me You Didn't Say Goodbye/c

Disclaimer: I'm a B/S shipper writing a pro-B/A story. A very odd situation…Anyways I don't own any of these characters or the song. The characters belong to the God Joss, and the song to a man named Travis Tritt.

Authors Note: This is set right after Surprise. Angel's soul is gone.

It isn't right. Someone with such a good heart, a good soul, all to have it taken away. Or he left it, I made him leave it… He lost his soul because of me.

I When I woke up this mornin', wiped the sleep from my eyes, I felt a new day dawning, and suddenly I realize, you're gone/I

He was cruel to me, I didn't think a soul made that much a difference, but he was mean. He said he didn't love me. I think I'm gonna die if he says anything else like that. It's killing me. It makes it even worse when he blames me….

I Tell Me I was dreaming, that you didn't leave me here to cry, you didn't say you don't love me anymore, it was just my imagination telling lies, tell me that you didn't say goodbye./I

I woke up and he was gone. I didn't understand at first but now I do. It's gone, the thing that made him human has left the building. I think I know what I have to do, he's not Ihim/I anymore. He just looks like him. My Angel has hit the ground.

I I'm in a state of confusion, I hope things aren't what they seem. If this is really happening, just let me go back to dreaming, you're home/I

I dream about him. He didn't go bad in these dreams. Instead he just stayed my Angel. My protector. And now I am helpless amongst the sea of demons in my head. It's getting to the point where I want to dream all the time and let Willow or Giles handle it. But he'd kill them and mom and every single person I knew and loved until I was insane like Dru. But he wouldn't save me like he did her. He'll let me live.

I Tell me I was dreaming, that you didn't leave me here to cry, you didn't say you don't love me anymore, it was just my imagination telling lies, tell me that you didn't say goodbye, don't tell me, you didn't say, goodbye./I
