"Hey Eric!" I heard Arlene yelling at me in her screeching voice, geez that woman's voice is annoying. I look up to make an annoyed face at her. Ha! Nobody scowls like Eric Northman! I am Viking, see me scowl!

"Yeah Arelene! What is it?" I try to screech back at her and sound as equally annoying.

"Some girl is here, asking bout a job. You want me to send her away?" Who does Arelene Fowler think she is to decide who get a job here or not. She knows I'm looking for new dishwasher. The chick looking for a job must be better looking than Arlene. She hates it when I hire women prettier her. (which is pretty much everyone. Hell! Even Lafayette is prettier than she is. Don't get me wrong, I am sure Arelene was a beauty queen, back in her time. Now she just looks... wore out. And she knows it too). I decide who gets a job around here. I bought this bar from Sam Merlotte 3 years ago. Guess she needs a reminder of who signs the paychecks around here.

"Now Arlene," I say in the most athoritive voice I have,"Could you please tell me what the sign on the door says?"

"Eric J. Northman, Bar Owner and Manager!" she says, clearly pissed.

"Good, Now that we are clear on who is the boss around hear, you can send the girl in and then get back to YOUR job." I say sarcastically.

Arlene turned around to leave and a about a minute later, the most beautiful young lady I have ever seen comes into my office, and I am in complete shock. She looks almost identical to Sookie Stackhouse. Long blonde hair pulled back in a ponytail, big blue eyes and wearing the same "I'm Beautiful and I know it" smile, Sookie Stackhouse used to have. She looks so much like Sookie, all I can do is stare at her for a moment and try and figure out who she could be. She's taller than Sookie for sure. This has to be the tallest teenage girl I have ever seen in person, next to my sister pam that is. Sookie was about 5'6, this girl is at least 5'9. Her nose is different than Sookie's nose, more defined, like mine. Her face is longer than Sookie's, Sookie always had one of those round faces with the cute chubby cheeks.

OMG! Listen to myself! Still thinking about Sookie Stackhouse like a lovesick teenager. The girl notices me staring at her, clearly making her feel uncomfortable. "ummmhmmm" I clear my throat.

" I'm so sorrry miss, I know you caught me staring at you, but it's just that, well, you look like someone I used to know. Anyways, I am sorry to seem so rude. What can I do for you? Arlene said you were looking for a job." I say as apologetically as I can.

"Yeah, I am looking for a part time job. I just moved here to live with my cousin. I will be getting my drivers license soon and my cousin said she would match me dollar for dollar if I get a job to help pay for me to buy a new car." she states nervously.

"Well tell me about yourself, I can't really hire a total stanger now can I. Do you have any experience? and what exactly is your name?" I ask her. Really, I don't know if I could see this kid everyday, she looks so much like Sookie it is making my heart hurt thinking about her. I don't know if I could look at her all the time only to be reminded of my first and only love. If I hire her it will only be part-time and never when I have to work.

"Well I don't exactly have any experience, I'm only 15, but my uncle told me that the owner of this place, which I am assuming is you, was a very nice man and will give everyone a chance to prove them selves." she tells me and seems to be apologising for lack of experience. I wonder who her uncle is. She seems very well mannered to be related to any of the wild rednecks around here.

"And who exactly is your uncle?"

"O, I am so sorry. My uncle's name is Lafayette, I believe he is your head chef or cook, whatever you call them out here in the boonies." She states as I am staring at her surprisingly."He's not my real uncle of course, he is just my cousins good friend and I have always called him an uncle. My name is Adele by the way, Adele Delahoussaye, pleasure to meet you Mr. Northman." she tells me as she is giving me one of the strongest handshakes I have ever received. Strong handshake, must mean she is confident. I like confidence in a person. Delahoussaye, that sounds familiar. Can't put my finger on it though.

"Well Adele, please call me Eric. Lafayette is right, I am a nice man and willing to give anyone a chance. But the problem is you are only 15 and I can't legally hire you until you are 16. Now I take it you will be 16 soon so here is what I can do for you, If you have your mother or father come down here and sign a wavier, I can hire you as a dishwasher and pay you under the table until you turn 16."I let her know. I wouldn't normally do that for any other 15 yr old kid, but something about this kid is screaming at me to help her out.

"Well Eric, I don't have a daddy, never have, and my mama just past away. That is why I am living here with my cousin. My cousin is my legal guardian now. Would it be okay if she came down to sign the papers?" she asks nervously. First job jitters, aahhh, to be young again.

"Of course, that would be perfectly acceptable. I am leaving work shortly but I will be back tomorrow. Have your cousin stop by tomorrow between 2-5pm, that's our slow hours, we can get you started training as soon as she signs the papers." I let her know grinning at her. I am grinning at her because she is smiling the most adorable smile, from ear to ear. I thought only Sookie Stackhouse could smile that big.

"OMG! Thank you so much Eric! I can't wait! I will make sure she is here right at 2. And please call me Addie, everyone does. The only time I hear Adele is when Sookie gets mad.'Adele Catherine Delahoussaye!' she will scream at me when I am in trouble. Please just call me Addie, otherwise I may always think you are out to ground me." she tells while cackling her head off. Awww, she even has Sookie's cackle. Sookie! Did she say Sookie? She did she said "The only time I hear Adele is when Sookie gets mad" That is what she said right? OMG am I going crazy? O shit! she is leaving, I need to get her to clarify before she leaves.

"Did you say Sookie? I am sorry I must be hearing things, there ain't but one Sookie and she is living it up in Hollywood. I just must have misunderstood you." I ask her.

"Nope, you didn't misunderstand. Sookie, the one and only, Sookie Stackhouse, is my guardian. When my mom died, Sookie's aunt Linda, Sookie decided that we should move back here so she can raise me "proper". She didn't want me growing up in L.A. She said it was too much violence and drugs and stuff for me to live there with her. So she fixed up her gran's old house and we moved back about a week ago. She said she was ready to retire anyways, maybe just stick to song writing, instead of singing and touring an all. She said she wrote all her best songs right here in this town, so she is just gonna be a backwoods hillbilly songwriter now. No more glitz and glam popstar for miss Sookie Stackhouse. Now that she is raising me she wouldn't want to expose me to a life of fame and fortune. HAHA! I might actually get to have fun then! Nope, she wants me raised the old fashion way, away from civilization and paparazzi, and she said you don't get no further away from civilization than Bon Temps, ! is it okay if she comes here tomorrow, she is pretty famous, I wouldn't want her to have your bar in an uproar, having customers asking for autographs and pictures. I didn't even think about that!" She seems to be very annoyed with Sookie's fame.

"Adele, I'm sorry, Addie, I am sure that she will be fine coming here. Most people here already know her. We just haven't seen her since your namesake passed away about 16 or 17 years ago. I for one, am looking forward to seeing her. I used to know her pretty well. Anyways, please don't worry about making a scene, if for some reason, her presence here causes a riot, we can just bring our meeting to this office. So you should not worry. I will see you tomorrow and we can start training you as soon as Sookie signs the papers saying you can work. all right." I assure her all will be fine. I am ready for her to leave and come back tomorrow with my Sookie. MY SOOKIE? O crap! I still want her just has badly now, at 33 than I did when I was 17.

"Okay Eric, see ya tomorrow." She turns around and leave me sitting in my office chair with alot on my mind.

No wonder Addie looks so much like Sookie, it's her little cousin. Her Aunt Linda must have got knocked up by a giant not too long after Gran died. So Linda named Addie after Gran, and did she say her middle name was Catherine, I guess that is just a coincidence that my mother's name was Catherine.

Sitting alone in my office, thinking of Sookie, I recall the words to the song Sookie sold to the group Lyrics couldn't have been written by anyone else. They were some of the exact same words I had said to Sookie the night before she was leaving for New Orleans to live with her aunt Linda.

16 years earlier

"Sing to me Lover." I always loved to hear Sookie could sing anything, original songs that she had written or our favorite songs written by our favorite singers. She could sing any song in the world and make me weak in the knees.

"Lover? Just when exactly did I become 'Lover'?"

"Tonight. Tonight you became Lover. My Lover. Please, sing for me." I tell her. She was leaving tomorrow to go live with her aunt Linda in New Orleans. She wanted to stay with me, but she was only 15 and didn't really have a choice. And even though we had made plans for me to move to New Orleans as soon as I could afford, or for her to come back here when she turned 18, I couldn't help but feel like this may be our last night together. I know she felt that way too and that is why she decided that tonight we should have sex for the first time.

I was 17 and a bit more experienced sexually than Sookie, she was only 15, I tried not to love her, and then when I knew I loved her, I tried to get her to wait to she was a little older till we had sex together for the first time, her first time period. I loved her so much, I just wanted her to be sure, and tonight, she was sure. She slipped her aunt Linda a sleeping pill and then snuck out to meet me for what could possibly be our last night together.( It was certainly gonna be the last time we saw each other for a long while, with her moving to New Orleans. It was a good 4 hour drive from Bon Temps, so we both knew that we would see each other rarely.) She was so beautiful, I couldn't resist her anymore. So we spread a blanket out on the bank of the lake, and even though we were just 15 and 17,( her no experience, me very little experience) we made love. And it felt so right. I could tell from her moans that is was good for her too. So after we did it, we stayed on the blanket all night watching the stars, listening to the crickets, and talking and holding each other.

"Okay, Lover, what pray tell, shall I sing for you?" she asks me with an english accent.

"No, No, No...YOU are Lover. You may call me...ummm... Master...Or perhaps God, you were calling me God earlier and I quite enjoyed it. Yes, God of Love and Sex will do." I reply in my most seductive voice I could imagine. She is cackling so hard she is convulsing at this point. "Lover, I love the way you laugh...or cackle. That is what it is. It is a cackle. But I love it none the less and I am going to miss it." O no. Now she is crying."Please don't cry Lover. Sing for me. Don't shhh." I tell her and hold her to me as tightly as possible without squishing her. She begins to sing the song she always picks to sing to me.

"The strands in your eyes that color them wonderful
Stop me and steal my breath." she slowly and nervously sings...I kiss her gently and then she begins to sing a little more calmly.

"And emeralds from mountains thrust toward the sky
Never revealing their depth." she sounds like an angel. I kiss her again, this time a little roughly, and she sings the next lines very loudly and full of confidence.

"Tell me that we belong together,
Dress it up with the trappings of love.
I'll be captivated,
I'll hang from your lips,
Instead of the gallows of heartache that hang from above."before she can even start the chorus I am attacking her lips and neck like some sort of wild animal. Licking and sucking, I began to massage her slit, still wet from our previous love making.

"oh Eric, Please...I want you again so much. Please, I want you inside of me now." she says so seductively and with so much want in her voice.

"O Lover I want you too." I assure and a keep thrusting my middle finger inside of her, and rubbing her little bundle of nerves with my thumb. "Shit! Sookie, we already used the only condom I brought. I never imagined you would want to do it twice."

"I don't care" she tells me between kisses, as she begins to stroke my severely throbbing member. "You can pull out of me when the time comes, but I need to feel your cock inside me, now!" She is begging me as she pushes me onto my back and slowly begins to swallow my cock with her tight pussy, until she can go no further, and I am fully inside of her. I had no power over her. She was holding me and my cock hostage with that sweet little pussy of hers. She rode me slowly up and down, then she found her perfect rythym and began riding me faster and faster. As soon as I looked into her eyes and heard her cry out " OH GOD ERIC! YES YES! HARDER!" I was gonner. I could feel her orgasm milking me of my own.

"O fuck Sookie! I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to come inside you. Fuck, it just felt so good." I was half sorry and the other half of me didn't give a Fuck. She was spectacular. I would not have traded that feeling for anything in the world.

"It's okay Eric. I'll be fine. We'll not ruin this perfect moment by worring about something that is most likely not to happen. I love you too much to let you worry over something that is highly unlikely. Okay?" she reassures me.

"Okay Lover, You're right, Let's stay here a little while, hold each other tight. And talk about our future. So, how long exactly is it until you turn 18, by that time I'll be 20 and surely I will have my own place by then, and you can come live with me." I am counting the minutes until she turns 18, but when I look at she doesn't seem happy about this.

"Eric, I love you so much, more than I thought possible at 15, and I know you feel the same about me, but I don't want to come back to Bon Temps. I want to go somewhere and try to make it being a singer or songwriter. I can't give up that dream until I have at least tried to make it. I don't want to have any regrets Eric. When I graduate I'm gonna move to Nashville, give music a shot. If it doesn't work then IDK. But I know I am NOT coming back to Bon Temps before I have tried. Will you come with me?"she asked me looking so full of hope and happiness.

"Sookie...I don't know if I can. It's not that I don't want to, it's just, I have to help take care of Pam. I love my mother, but she can't pay the bills and send Pam to college. The whole reason I took that job with the road crew was so I could help her out with bills. I helped with bills last month and we still can barely afford to keep the lights on. IDK Sookie. I think that's a bridge we will have to cross when we get there." i let her know that I love her but I still have obligations.

"Okay Eric, I understand. Let's just stay here and hold each other a little while longer. Aunt Linda wants to leave by noon tomorrow."she looked like the saddest person to ever walk the earth when she reminded herself of that. She laid with her head on my chest, I could tell from her breathing she was beginning to fall asleep.

"Sookie" I whispered to her."Sookie."

"Eric! Just go to sleep yourself!" she does not like someone to come between her and her sleep.

"Sookie, did you know you smile while you're sleeping?" i say while laughing to myself. "Come on Sookie. I don't wanna close my eyes, caused I'd miss you Lover. And I don't wanna miss another moment with you." She jerked herself awake suddenly and was grinning from ear to ear. "What is it Lover? Why are you smiling?"

"Because Eric, you just inspired me to write a song. Quick. Gimmie a pen and something to write on. I don't wanna forget . It is gonna be the one that makes me famous!" she screamed happily. So I ran to my truck grabbed a pen and an old napkin and she wrote down her song. That I inspired.

Sookie left for New Orleans the day after that, then a month later my mom lost her job. The economy was so bad the only other job she could find wasn't paying her near as much as her old job. So I took I took a second job working nights as a cook at Merlotte's. I knew I was gonna have to help out Mom and Pam, at least until Pam left for college. And that meant I would never be able to go to Nashville with Sookie. At least not in the Next 5 or 6 years, and I couldn't do that to her. I couldn't make her wait on me that long. She shouldn't have to put her dreams on hold to wait for me to be available to her. If I wasn't sure she would make it in the music business, I would have been selfish and asked her to wait for me. The problem was, she was good, and I knew it. I knew she could make it with very little effort. So I knew what I had to do. Sookie was coming down the next weekend to get some more of her things and told me she really needed to see me also. When she showed up I told her we shouldn't be together, she tried to tell me it would all be fine that waiting for me 1 or 2 more years wouldn't make a difference. But I knew it would, So I told her I couldn't wait for her while she was in New Orleans. I missed her too much and I was tired of being lonely. That I needed to have someone who could actually be with me and not 4 hrs away. I told her, I was already tired of waiting on her and I wanted to see other people. Which was a lie. I loved her, I would have waited for her forever, but I couldn't justify her setting her dreams aside while she waited on me. So she left. And I didn't see her again until after her high school graduation about 2 1/2 years later.

I knew Sookie's brother Jason would tell her about Dawn. He was so pissed when he found out I had been seeing Dawn. But Dawn was easy, and I was lonely. So I started seeing her, well, I guess our relationship would be better described as fuck buddies. But a couple of months after we started fucking, Dawn told me she was pregnant. So I did the honorable thing and married her. About a week after me and Dawn got married I was working nights at Merlottes and I went to take the trash out back to the dumpster, that is when I saw her, Sookie Stackhouse, looking more like a woman than I could have imagined. She was Sitting at the table everybody used for smoke breaks. My heart felt like it was gonna jump out of my chest and run over and grab her and drag her back to my cave and keep her with me forever. But my brain was reminding me of my pregnant wife who was waiting tables, at the same restaurant I worked at, at that very moment Dawn could show up, and she probably would.

"So...it's true? You married Dawn Greene?" She asked me nervously. I have never known Sookie to be so nervous, or was she sad. IDK. But she looked very uncomfortable.

"What are you doing here Sookie? Shouldn't you be in Nashville by now." I mention Nashvile with a sarcastic tone but never answer her question.

"Actually, I am leaving for L.A. in the morning. I was passing through to tell Jason goodbye. I sold a song." She tells me but doesn't really seem to want to tell me more."I sold a song I wrote to Aerosmith! Can you believe it? They recorded it last month so it should be coming out soon. Anyways, I won this songwriter contest I entered and they loved the song so much, they asked me for more. So I am going to L.A. to work with Aerosmith."her face was so bright and happy as she was telling me her news even her eyes were smiling.

"That's great Sookie! I always knew you would make it. You were too good not too." I tell her. and I am really as excited for her as she is for herself. I am looking at her and I know she knows I still love her. But damn it! ughhh! I could be going with her if I hadn't been so stupid! Remember your pregnant wife Eric? You are suppose to love her. Not your teenage sweetheart. Teenage love isn't real love. Right? Sookie spoke at the moment I was contemplating leaving my wife and following her like a lovesick puppy across the country.

"Do you love her Eric?" she ask me. She really wanted to know. Why did she want to know? Does she still love me? Does she want me to go with her still? God, I wish I could. But I have obligations and responsibilities. Fuck! Fuck my life! Uggghh!

"How do you know if you really love a woman Sookie? She is pregnant with my child, I am obligated to her." She doesn't look surprised with my answer.

"Your right Eric. I thought you loved me once upon a time, but I guess I was just...15. All 15 yrold girls want to believe in Fairy Tale love and it's just not realistic is it. All love really is...is obligation I guess." She looked down at the ground and kick the dirt,"I gotta go Eric, I have an early flight. Congratulations on your... obligations." Then she turned around and left. Off to her fabulous new life without me and it's all my fault.

I heard the open at that moment and Dawn came out looking as pissed as I have ever seen a woman. Fuck, was she standing there the whole time?

"Dawn, I didn't see you there." I tell her nervously.

"Well I guess you didn't, did you. Otherwise I might not have heard about what I am to you! A fucking obligation! You know what, fuck this! I don't get attached to men and I certainly ain't gonna be nobodies obligation! Hell, this obligation I'm pregnant with probably ain't even yours anyways!" WHAT DID SHE SAY? "That's right! you heard me Eric Northman. The baby is NOT yours. We always used a rubber, that means it is probably Jason's" OMG! This bitch conned me into marrying her because she knew Jason Stackhouse wouldn't.

I am not sure what to do or say. I am stunned. First she's pregnant, then I marry her, then Sookie show's up, and now I am most likely not the father of Dawn's baby, and I married her for no reason at all."Dawn, I am moving back to my mother's. We can get an anulment and when the baby is born we will have a DNA test done. I cannot be around you right now. I can't believe you would omit the fact that I may not be the babies father, nevermind the fact that you were obviously still fucking Jason Stackhouse!"

So I left Merlotte's that night without even clocking out. I went home and explained what happen to my mom and Pam and took off work for the week to re-evaluate my life. After being home for 4 days Pam was starting to get on my nerves with her constant talking about useless shit. She was a junior in HS this year and kept wanting to know my opinion on every topic high school related, she just wouldn't shut up.

"Pamela! Shut the fuck up! I can't think with you constantly yammering on about useless bullshit!" I went to my room slammed the door and turned up my stereo as loud as I could. That's when I heard it.

"This is DJ Shady with KFXY radio, and I am here with the legendary band Aerosmith, and they are here to tell us about the brand new song we are about to debut. Please, Steven Tyler, tell us about it" OMG! are they talking about the song Sookie wrote. It's gotta be.

"Well DJ shady, we had decided to start a new album, we had most of it written, but we were stuck with writing a really good Power ballad. Ya know, a really powerful love song. So we decided to host an 'I write love songs' contest. The winning song would be our first single on our new album. We had thousands of songs to pick through but when we came across this one song inparticular, we knew that it was it. It is gonna be epic, I promise. Everyone is gonna love it. It was so good we got in touch with the writer to see if she had written anything else. She has written so much wonderful music,, and then we learn that not only does she write but she can sing. So we are producing her first album and she is gonna be the singer/songerwriter for the entire album. She is truely amazing, and sweet. She is the sweetest little southern girl I have ever met. Anyways, she is here with us today. DJ Shady, you can do her first interview as soon as we get our new song aired. So let me introduce the song:All right America debuting our new single written by a lovely up and coming artist, miss Sookie Stackhouse, and sang by your favorite rock band in the world here it is, it's called 'I don't wanna miss a thing' " Steven fucking Tyler says. OMG! Sookie is gonna be famous! I always knew she could do it, but dang, that is still just too surreal. I can't wait to hear it. and then it starts. And I can't even hear Steven Tyler singing...I just keep imagining that Sookie is still right beside me Singing to me like she always used to...

I could stay awake just to hear you breathing
Watch you smile while you are sleeping
While you're far away and dreaming
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment forever
Where every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure

Don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
Cause I'd miss you babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you babe
And I don't want to miss a thing

Lying close to you feeling your heart beating
And I'm wondering what you're dreaming
Wondering if it's me you're seeing
Then I kiss your eyes
And thank God we're together
I just want to stay with you in this moment forever
Forever and ever

I don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
Cause I'd miss you babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you babe
And I don't want to miss a thing

I don't want to miss one smile
I don't want to miss one kiss
I just want to be with you
Right here with you, just like this
I just want to hold you close
Feel your heart so close to mine
And just stay here in this moment
For all the rest of time Yeah yeah yeah

I don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
Cause I'd miss you babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you babe
And I don't want to miss a thing

I Don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
Cause I'd miss you babe
And I don't want to miss a thing
Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream will never do
I'd still miss you babe
And I don't want to miss a thing

Don't want to close my eyes
I don't want to fall asleep
And I don't want to miss a thing

As the song ends, the DJ comes back on "Okay boys and girls out there in radio land, DJ Shady here with aerosmith and the soon to be famous miss Sookie Stackhouse. So Sookie, those were some pretty incredible lyrics. What inspired that song?"

"Well, DJ Shady, the same thing that inspires all great songs. LOVE. It was pure and innocent 'first love' kinda love."she said 'first love' like it wasn't a real thing.

"Well miss Sookie, care to elaborate on what happened to that 'first love' love?" he asked. Yes, Sookie please tell the whole world what happened between us.

"The same thing that happens to all first loves DJ. We grew up, and grew apart, but it was an awesome and inspiring adventure. And actually my debut album that will be out in about 6 months, is dedicated to that first love. The entire album, he inspired every heartfelt lyric.I really need to thank him and aerosmith over here. Without those guys, this woudn't be possible. So thanks aerosmith, and thanks first love. Thanks for having me, DJ." she sounds honest in her appreciation.

I notice I am not really breathing, so I take a deep breathe and release. Wow! I know that is the song she wrote the night we first made love. Even if she hadn't said it, I would hav known. The song that I inspired, hell, I actually said some of the words to her. Maybe our relationship wasn't a total disappointment to her. She just said I inspired the whole album that is gonna make her famous. I decide in that moment that I am going to make something of myself, somehow. I want to be worthy of Sookie Stackhouse. She will come back to Bon Temps sooner or later, and when she does. I'm gonna be here waiting for her. And I will get her back, and show her how much she means to me.

So I spent the next 6 months working my ass off, saving every penny possible. I didn't know what I was gonna do, but I knew I would need money to do it. I was driving home from work one day listening to a random radio station when I heard the DJ mention Sookie's name, so I turned up the volume "Here it is, the new hit single by Sookie Stackhouse, It is our most requested song of the day and soon to be week, here it is, Sookie Stackhouse singing 'someone like you':

"I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl and you're married now.
I heard that your dreams came true.
Guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.

Old friend, why are you so shy?
Ain't like you to hold back or hide from the light.

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I begged
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, "
Yeah

You'd know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited
But I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it.
I'd hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded
That for me it isn't over.

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I begged
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."
Yeah

Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes
They are memories made.
Who would have known how bittersweet this would taste?

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don't forget me, I begged
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."

Never mind, I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you too
Don't forget me, I begged
I remember you said,
"Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead,
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead."

"Wow! What a haunting and soulful song. That was 'someone like you' by the new young artist Sookie Stackhouse. Guys I just heard that Sookie Stackhouse will be Starting her first tour next month. They anticipate that she is just gonna blow up the radio waves and be the next big thing. So she will be kicking off the first part of the tour for her debut album, in New Orleans. Thats right Tickets will be on sale next friday. I suggest you get in line, cause i would be willing to bet they go fast." The DJ announces.
