Tempest

12-5-05

Chloe after Clark leaves to save Lana from the twisters in episode 1-21.

And no, I'm not making money off of this . . . .

---

He's left me here, this friend of mine

For whom I've grown to care.

It was for him I wore a dress,

I even did my hair.

-

But when he'd heard the twisters came

Then he was gone again.

Who is this guy? Where is he now—

This boy I call just friend?

-

He promised me tonight would be

A night I won't forget.

Whaddaya know—his words were true.

It's one that I'll regret.

-

It seems that he's taken on himself

To be the hero in town.

Regardless of all who've been saved,

He always lets me down.

-

While all around the music plays,

I'm surrounded, yet alone.

I never wanted to be "just friends"—

I wanted his love to own.

-

I'll remember from this glad night

His eyes, our dance, each tear.

Now I've no doubt he loves her most

Just as I've always feared.

-

He's left me here to save a friend

(Forgive my solemn tone)

He's left me here to save our friend—

Now I must dance alone.
