Clary's Song
Taylor Swift: Mary's Song
This is my first fan-fic so I hope you like it.
She said, I was seven and you were nine
I looked at you like the stars that shined,
In the sky, the pretty lights
I stared after you when you went to get the lemonade from the porch at your house. I was the little red headed girl with the big green eyes that was your very best friend, even though you ere two years older than me. I sat on the swing and watched your blonde hair bounce around your face as you ran, the sun glinting off your eyes. It reminded me of the stars.
Our daddies use to joke about the two of us
Growing up and falling in love
And our mamas' smiled
And rolled their eyes
And said oh my, my, my
You came running back with both our lemonades and our mamas' and daddies' watched from your houses window as I asked you to push me higher and higher. They'd joke about us being sweethearts when we grew up but we just laughed and said, "Why grow up when you have right now?" Our mamas' rolled their eyes when we'd come in at night with bruises and scrapes.
Took me back to the house and the backyard tree
Said you'd beat me up you were bigger than me
You never did, you never did
One day I was sitting on the swing in your backyard drawing when you picked me up and slung me over your shoulders, saying that you'd beat me up. I squealed in protest that you were bigger than me so you put me down again. Then you proceeded to chase me around the yard.
Took me back when our world was one block wide
I dared you to kiss me and ran when you tried
Just two kids, you and I
Oh my, my, my, my,
Our houses were a block apart with the playground in between so I never had to go far to see you. We would always play at the park and that was the first time I asked you to kiss me. We were under the monkey bars when it happened, you leaned in and just as we were about to kiss, I turned and ran away. You chased me around all day after that, and you were mad at me afterwards. I walked up to you the next day and kissed you on the cheek in front of all your friends. You blushed like my hair and I teased you about it all the time.
Well, I was sixteen when suddenly
I wasn't that little girl you use see
But your eyes still shined like pretty lights
I remember the day I started high school. I was all grown up and ready to face the world, and when I saw you in the hallway, our eyes lit up like the stars. It made the cheerleaders jealous. We were still best friends, we always would be, and now we had other friends to add to that. We were happy.
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
They never believed we'd really fall in love
And our mamas' smiled
And rolled their eyes
And said oh my, my, my
I was sitting in your yard one evening with you, your arm rapped around me as we watched the stars and talked about everything. I snuggled closer to you and kissed your cheek. Our parents watched from the window once again, our daddies were dumbfounded. They never thought we'd fall in love and our mamas' rolled their eyes at that. They'd always known…
Took me back to the reek beds we turned up
Two a.m. riding in your truck
And all I need is you next to me
We ran through creeks, splashing mud everywhere, laughing as we went. It was two in the morning and we'd been caught kissing at the hay farm by our school. We hopped in your truck and sped away, your arm around me and me laughing into your chest. I felt content.
Took me back to the time we had our very first fight
Slamming doors instead of kissing goodnight
You stayed outside, till the morning light
Oh my, my, my, my
I slammed the door in your face, your golden eyes pleading, but mine had tears in them. I had heard that you'd cheated on me with the head cheerleader Aline. I ran up to my room and sobbed my eyes out into my pillow. Around five in the morning I looked out my window to see you sleeping on the porch. I forgave you after that.
A few years had gone and come around
We were sitting at our favorite spot in town
And you looked at me
And got down on one knee
We sat in the park where we'd basically spent our childhood. You were now twenty-two and me twenty. The last time we'd played here had been almost fifteen years ago. I caught you glancing in my direction and when I looked at you. You got down on one knee. In your hand was the most beautiful thing I had ever seen. I had said yes instantly.
Took me back to the time when we walked down the isle
Our whole town came and our mamas' cried
You said I do, and I did too
I nervously walked down the long isle, the whole town staring at me, but I was looking at you. I heard our mamas' cries from where I was and I smiled as I reached you. "I do," You said, "I do" I mimicked like when we were younger. I threw it and it landed in the eager hands of Isabelle.
Took me home where we met so many years before
We'll rock our babies on that very front porch
After all this time, you and I
As we stood on the porch watching our children run around while holding another one, I couldn't help but laugh as it reminded me s much of us when we were that age.
And I'll be eighty-seven; you'll be eighty-nine
I'll still look at you like the stars that shine
In the sky
Oh my, my, my
Sitting by you in that old house we grew up in, I look in your golden eyes, still young among your wrinkled face and silver hair. My hair has whited out too, though and my face withered. I smile at you when I see the sparkle in your eye from when we were young.
