Everyday I try to play another game
But my heart can't take it
I try to find another boy
But all the while I can't face it
Why do I miss you so much?
I wanna stop to turn inside
oh baby please
give us one more try
"Just forget about it, Mitchie!" Caitlyn commanded. "You need to learn how to let stuff go and move on!" She was worried her friend was obsessing over the whole thing with her secret.
Mitchie paced around her cabin. "I can't do it, Caitlyn. I try, I really do, but I just can't!"
Caitlyn watched her friend from her position on Mitchie's bed. "Yes, you can! You don't need him, Mitch. He's not worth it."
But I do need him, Mitchie thought, And he needs me...
See you out with all your friends
Laughin' it up as you pretend
to have a good time
I know cause I'm living the same life
so one of us has got to say
we can't keep living this same way
so I'll be the one
yeah I'll say it, I'll say it, I'll say it, I'll say it again
Shane paced his around cabin. It's like she doesn't care, he thought, She just goes around acting all normal, like nothing happened!
But something had happened; he had ruined everything with Mitchie. Every chance they could even be friends was gone. And it was all his fault. Mitchie had tried to explain, but he wouldn't listen; he had been so angry. Now he was regretting it.
Baby come back to me
in my heart I still believe
we were meant to be
together so whatever it takes
Baby come back to me
I should've never set you free
love baby
come back
Mitchie stopped pacing. "I want him back, I need him back."
Caitlyn shook her head. "Why? So he can break your heart again?"
Mitchie thought back to that day. It had only been two days since, but to Mitchie it felt like months. Shane had crushed her, said it was over between them. Mitchie had cried herself to sleep that night. She muttered, "Oh, you're probably right."
I wanna call, but then I stall
cause after all, I just couldn't take it
cause if your play was to push me away
you know that day, my heart you'd break it
I should talk to her; apologize, Shane thought suddenly. But then again, she'll probably just tell me to go away.
I know we made a mistake
can't you stop your foolish pride
And come back to me
Let's try, let's try, let's try, let's try again
Mitchie thought, Maybe if I talk to him I can make him understand... She looked at Caitlyn. "I should at least try to talk to him."
Caitlyn shrugged. "If you really want to. I won't stop you."
Mitchie continued walking around the room, lost in her thoughts.
Baby come back to me
in my heart I still believe
we were meant to be
together so whatever it takes
Shane wished he could be sure Mitchie would listen. He really needed to explain things to her. Shane sat down on the edge of his bed. His head was spinning. He decided to walk down to the lake to think.
Baby come back to me
I should have never set you free
love baby
come back
Mitchie nodded. "I have to talk to him."
Caitlyn called, "Good luck!" as Mitchie hurried out the door.
You know you miss your Baby V
And I can see that you think about me
so why do you act like you don't care
like all this love between us isn't there
I know that you're upset
I know I did you wrong
I know that you want me to pay for all the pain I've caused
but in the end it all comes down to just one thing
it's you and me
so I sing
Shane sat down on the dock. The water on front of him rippled in the breeze. It was so peaceful, quite unlike his frantic brain. He recalled the events of the past few days...
Mitchie had lied to everyone. Somehow, Tess found out and told the whole camp. Shane hadn't known what to do. He had just been so angry! So he had told her off. And he hadn't talked to her since.
Baby come back to me
in my heart I still believe
we were meant to be
together so whatever it takes
Mitchie walked around the camp, looking for Shane. She couldn't find him anywhere. Mitchie felt tears rising in her eyes. I blew it, she thought.
Mitchie walked toward the lake, collecting her thoughts.
Baby come back to me
I should've never set you free
love baby
come back
Mitchie slowed as she approached the water; someone was sitting on the dock. As she drew closer, Mitchie recognized the person as Shane. Now's my chance, she thought, I can talk to him alone.
Shane stared down at his hands. He sighed.
Mitchie watched Shane lift his head. She froze, afraid he had heard her.
Then Shane whispered to no one in particular, "Mitchie, please come back to me."
