So Close

So Close

A story based on the song So Close by Jon McLaughlin from the movie Enchanted.

Lily walked into a beautiful ballroom. She was wearing a beautiful emerald dress, her hair in curls and her eyes glowing. She walked down the stairs. James turned to see a beautiful jewel shine before him. " May I have this dance?" asked James. Lily smiled and nodded.

You're in my arms
And all the world is calm
The music playing on for only two
So close together
And when I'm with you
So close to feeling alive

James grabbed Lily. They looked into each other's eyes. They twirled around and it was only them too.

A life goes by
Romantic dreams will stop
So I bid mine goodbye and never knew
So close was waiting, waiting here with you
And now forever I know
All that I wanted to hold you
So close

The spotlight was on them. James felt that this was the perfect moment. He felt even stronger than ever for his feelings towards Lily.

So close to reaching that famous happy end
Almost believing this was not pretend
And now you're beside me and look how far we've come
So far we are so close

Lily felt his grip tighter and she spin. She felt like a princess. Has she found her prince? Is the happy ending?

James holds her tighter and sang to her.

How could I face the faceless days
If I should lose you now?
We're so close
To reaching that famous happy end
And almost believing this was not pretend
Let's go on dreaming for we know we are
So close
So close
And still so far

The moment will last forever. "I love you" James said. " Me too" Lily answered. They kissed. They had found their ending. They had found each other.
