[Verse 1]
I found God
On the corner of First and Amistad
Where the west
Was all but won
All alone
Smoking his last cigarette
I said, "Where you been?"
He said, "Ask anything".
[Verse 2]
Where were you
When everything was falling apart?
All my days
Were spent by the telephone
That never rang
And all I needed was a call
That never came
To the corner of First and Amistad
[Chorus 1]
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me
[Verse 3]
In the end
Everyone ends up alone
Losing him
The only one who's ever known
Who I am
Who I'm not, who I wanna be
No way to know
How long he will be next to me
[Chorus 2]
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me
[Bridge]
Early morning
The city breaks
I've been callin'
For years and years and years and years
And you never left me no messages
Ya never send me no letters
You got some kinda nerve
Taking all I want
[Chorus 3 and outro]
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Where were you? Where were you?
Lost and insecure
You found me, you found me
Lyin' on the floor
Surrounded, surrounded
Why'd you have to wait?
Where were you? Where were you?
Just a little late
You found me, you found me
Why'd you have to wait?
To find me, to find me
Gently Halt pulled the ale glass from the sleeping Alyss' hand from where it had been glued for the night and passed it to his wife, Pauline. She poured it down the sink and then put it in the sink to be washed later the hidden along with the ale. In the meantime Halt lifted Alyss and started to walk her to her room at the back of the cabin. Going in here brought many memories to Halt's mind but he refused to allow them to take over his mind. He dropped her off in the room and walked out again before it completely took over his being. Halt sat down on the couch in the lounge room of the cabin.
'What's the bet that she didn't just come out here in the early morning?' he asked Pauline with a tired worried face. He couldn't keep on doing this until the day that he died. Crowley might expect a report soonish.
'A huge one. She probably didn't even make it to her room,' Pauline replied grimly and laid back further into the couch, doing something she rarely ever did, slouching.
Halt sighed. 'We are going to lose her before too long, if nothing changes,' he said and lovingly wiped the fallen tears away from Pauline's red eyes.
'We came in too late,' she said and looked up as a thud echoed through the house. 'I will go and help her.'
Pauline walked in to see Alyss lying on the floor sobbing her heart out. She was beating her fists against the floor asking it who gave it permission to take Will away from her. The emotion emanating from the poor girl broke her heart and gently she picked her up off the floor and brushed her hair away from her face.
At once Alyss leaned away and threw up. Hiding her disgust at the sight and smell, Pauline carried her protégé into the bathroom and cleaned her up. Sure she wasn't completely respectable, but it was something. Slowly she led Alyss out to the man room where Halt was sitting.
They ran into a problem though for as soon as Alyss saw Will's old things hanging in the exact way that he would have left them she started sobbing all over again. Halt stood up and reached out to remove the offending items but couldn't find it in himself to do so. They would just have to stay there.
I don't know… I changed 2 words in the song and if you really love it then you will notice. I don't know about the thud. I was going to have her falling out of the bed but now I am starting to lean more towards her running into a door or something as she tried to get out of the house.
