It's my third cup of coffee
The fifth time I said I'm sorry
The sun slowly peakin' through the glass
Says we've been up all night
Takato yawned. He was on his third cup of coffee and rubbing his temples to relieve the stress. "How did it come to this?" he thought. He and Jerri had another fight which lasted most of the night. Sadness quickly overcame him. Where did it all go wrong?
We all know where this is going
It's been a long time coming
Is it really over
Is this really goodbye
Maybe I should say something
Maybe you'd change your mind
Maybe maybe
Buy a little more time
A 2 year relationship over in what seemed like an instant. Takato couldn't believe it. "Maybe it's not too late. Maybe I can say something. Maybe I can do something. I could by more time." But he knew those thoughts were in vain. There was nothing he could say. No magic words that would make her fall back into his arms. This brought a tear to his eye.
But I got nothing
No magic words
To stop your leaving
To end this hurt
I'm just blank
I'm staring into space
Praying please please let me think of something
'Cause I got nothing
He stared off into space lost for words. He prayed that they would come, but they did not. No matter how he begged and pleaded to God for the right words to say and still nothing came. "Maybe it's for the best. Maybe I should just let her go."
I watch you pack your things
You look down at your ring
Slowly slip off and then lay it on our bed
Maybe I should pick it up
And get down on my knees
Tell you what you want to hear
And give you what you need
He moved into the other room and watched her slowly pack her things. There were tears in her eyes. She slowly slipped off the promise ring he gave her and laid it on their bed. "No I have to stop this! I could pick it up and get down on my knees. I could tell her how much she means to me. How much I care. I could do that one last grand romantic gesture to win her back!" But deep in his aching heart he knew this wasn't true. They just didn't love each other like before. Nothing he could do or say would change that. He hated to admit it but this was the end.
But I got nothing
No magic words
To stop your leaving
To end this hurt
I'm just blank
I'm staring into space
Praying please please let me think of something
'Cause I got nothing
You're almost at the door
And you stop and turn around
You're eyes are begging me
Please say something right now
She went to the door. Before grabbing the door she looked back at him. It was almost as if her eyes were begging him to say something. To stop her from leaving. He tried hard but nothing came to him. He was blank. Then finally he broke the silence as the words finally came to him. "Jerri, I'm sorry it ended this way. I want you to know that I still care about you. I hope you can forgive me. I know things can't go back to the way they were, but I hope we can still be friends. Because without our your friendship…. I'll have nothing." Tears streamed down his face as he said this.
But I got nothing
No magic words
To stop your leaving
I can't end this hurt
I'm just blank
I'm staring into space
Praying please please let me think of something
'Cause if you go
I got nothing
She turned away again. Tears stained her cheeks as she smiled a half -hearted smile. "Of course we can still be friends. I…. wouldn't have it any other way.I wouldn't want to lose your friendship either Takato." "Do you need money? I can get you a cab or bus fare?" he asked with genuine concern. She turned around one last time and shook her head. "No, I'll be fine Takato." She paused a moment before leaving and said "Thank you." As she slipped out the door Guillmon came up. "Takato, where is Jerri going?" "She's going away guillmon." He said "Why?" Tears were in Takato's eyes. "It's complicated." "Will we see her again?" he asked. "Sure boy, sure." He smiled all though he wasn't sure. All he knew now was that everything was going to change.
