The song is called We Are One by Westlife.
I didn't want to lose her. Eve though we had been miles
apart through out the majority of her stay I still felt a connection with her.
With her parents God knows where to! Even though I had important classes
involving my passing or failing college, I came home for a visit. To see her.
To tell Annie good-bye.
Two very different people
Too scared to get along
Till two hearts beat together
One very special moment
Can turn a destiny
And what some would say
Could never change
Has changed for you and me
I told no one of my visit that would ruin the surprise. I
knew the Thelen's were back in town arriving two days before and to be leaving
with Annie tomorrow morning. A short stay but Kevin had to get to his new
location soon so three days were all that was spariable. Just one night to tell
Annie I loved her. And to ask if she felt the same. Climbing out of the taxi I
hear the sounds of a miniature party going on through the Phillips door. I ring
the bell and wait. And the heavens must have been smiling on me because Annie
answered.
Cos it's all, it's all in the way you look through your
eyes
And when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies are
Not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it
That makes you strong
We were two
Now we are one
Her eyes, the most beautiful eyes in the world become large
and she explodes into giggles. While throwing her arms around me. I held her to
me, treasuring this moment that could end any second and never return. I wanted
to scope her up and take her with me. I had no destination but if I was with
her all would be OK. She asks me what I'm doing here. Without thinking I
blurred out I love you. No response but no screaming or running away either.
Then I see it! A smile.
We are two very different people
So much to overcome
So why care for one another
When there's so much to be done
Did she? Did she feel the same way? Or was that smile just to
be polite for the boy making a fool of himself? Annie reaches up and sets her
hand on my shoulder, oh no here it comes I think. But it doesn't. No telling me
sorry I don't feel the same way. Instead she confessed she loved me too. Annie
Thelen loved me! All my dreams and wishes for the past year since she entered
our lives nearly a year ago were answered. Then there shattered when I see her
mother approaching us from inside with a welcoming smile and cracker in hand.
Cos sometimes it's necessary
Just look how far we've come
You could say my friend that
It's the end
Or a new tale has begun
In a few hours we would be apart again. I had secretly loved
her at a distance, couldn't I publicly love her at a distance as well? No, I
couldn't. My heart won't allow it, it would be suicide. I could transfer
schools to be close to her, I could quit school all together. Anything! Annie
and I are to be together forever I just know it. And the only way for our
destiny to begin is if were together.
Cos it's all, it's all in the way you look through your
eyes
And when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies are
Not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it
That makes you strong
We were two
Now we are one
Annie holds my hand like on the movies the fingers
interlocked into each other. I can feel into her soul, she's having the same fears
and anxiety of leaving like me. If she feels this way too maybe we can persuade
her folks not to take her away. Our love would shine through our eyes and
they'd understand. Who was I getting!? No parent would allow their 16 year old
daughter to stay with a college kid!
One moment in time
Is all the time we need
Just to make a difference
To make it better for you and for me
It you just believe
Oh yeah
Just open your eyes
Knowing now was our only time to be together and God only
knows how long I wanted it be perfect. Ignoring the waiting guests inside who
were surely gathered to wish Annie good-bye; I take her off the porch and onto
the driveway. Wrapping my arms around her waist as if we had been a couple for
months. I point up to the stars and tell her to find a star to call ours and to
make a wish.
Cos it's all, it's all in the way you look through your
eyes
And when all is said and done
All of the fear and all of the lies are
Not hard to overcome
It's all in the way you look at it
That makes you strong
We were two
Now we are one
I spy Jack standing in the doorway watching us. Not rudely
but out of coursity. I had told him my feelings for Annie, he's the only one I
had told until now. I wish I had taken his advice and let my open much sooner
now. Fear of reaction can really do a number on a person.
Oh yeah, oh yeah
We were two
Now we are one
A few moments become apart of history then she opens them. A single tear falls down, gently I wipe it away and tell her its OK. I'm willing to die for her, kill anyone who would even consider harming her. So of course I'm more then willing to make sure she's always happy. She tells me her wish was for this to last forever but realized it couldn't. With a solom heart agree but tell her whenever we missed each other to find our star and all would be ok.
