Gotta Be You
"What are you saying, Jayden? That you rather be doing anything else but be with your girlfriend? Is that it?"Emily yelled.
"That's not it at all, baby, "Jayden tried to defend himself.
"I can't do this anymore, Jayden, we're done. "Emily said, storming away before Jayden could say anything else.
Jayden just sadly walked back to his room and shut the door.
A few minutes into his self-pity party, Antonio knocked on the door.
"Hey, buddy, I heard what happened. You okay?"Antonio asked.
"No, "Jayden says, "A part of me just died. "
"Ouch, anything I can do?"Anotonio asked.
"Try to think of a way to help me win her back, "Jayden said.
"Ummm. . . what about trying to sing her a song?"Antonio suggested.
"That might work, "Jayden said, getting up and grabbing his guitar, "And I've got just the song in mind. "
So, Jayden got up and went outside Emily's bedroom window. He stood there and started to play.
Girl I see it in your eyes
You're disappointed
Cause I'm the foolish one
That you annointed with your heart
I tore it apart
And girl what a mess I made
Upon your innocence
And no woman in the world deserves this
But here I am asking you for one chance
Can we fall
One more time?
Stop in our tracks
And rewind
Oh and if you walk away
I know I'll fade
Cause theirs nobody else
It's gotta be you
Only you
It's gotta be you
Only you
Now girl I hear it in your voice
How it trembles
When you speak to me
I don't resemble
Who I was
You've almost had enough
And you actions speak louder than words
And you're about to break from all you've heard
Don't be scared
I ain't goin' no where
I'll be here
By your side
No more fears
No more cryin'
But if you walk away
I know I'll fade
Cause their's nobody else
It's gotta be you
Only you
It's gotta be you
Oh only you
Oh girl
Can we try
One more
One more time
One more
One more
Can we try
One more
One more
I'll make it better
One more
One more time
One more
One more
Can we try one more time
To make it all better
Cause it's gotta be you
It's gotta be you
Only you
Only you
It's gotta be you
Only you
It's gotta be you
Only you
After Jayden finished with his song, he waited for a reaction.
He didn't have one. Emily had enough and Jayden really blew it. And there was no going back.
But it had to be her.
