The song plays and she starts to fall apart
But you can't blame it for breaking her heart
No, that fault is mine
She sits on her stool listening to the song
She tells her lies like she's done for so long
She's not really fine
__
By the second verse
Thought I heard her curse
Can't lie anymore
She heads for the door
__
But when the bridge hit you could see her crack
She killed the jukebox with a mighty whack
It put up no fight
She stood there a moment holding back tears
But soon she broke down, gave into her fears
Ran into the night
__
Wish I could have been
Right there for her then
It's not meant to be
For she can't see me
__
I want to tell her…
__
Girl don't you fret and don't you fear
The one you love's already here
I'm never out of sight
I'll always solve your plight
So don't you shed a single tear
__
I'm with her every night and every day
May as well be a million miles away
Feels as such to me
I think she suspects, she knows me too well
She doesn't let on so it's hard to tell
What her thoughts may be
__
It pains me to see
Her break 'cause of me
I do what I can
Because I'm her man
__
I call her often to tell her I'm fine
Her voice trembles on her end of the line
Both know it's not true
If she knew the truth she'd be in danger
She'd be better off if we were strangers
So what can I do?
__
I can't let her see
Who I am is me
She wouldn't believe
How could she believe?
__
And so I must still live this lie
I bite my tongue and watch her cry
I just want to go back
But the method I lack
Regret will last until I die
__
I want to tell her…
__
Girl don't you fret and don't you fear
The one you love's already here
I'm never out of sight
I'll always solve your plight
So don't you shed a single tear
__
I want to tell her…
__

I don't own Detective Conan or any of the characters, but since I don't mention them specifically anyway I think it'll be ok. It was not my intent upon starting this to make it into something referencing Conan, as the rough draft was based on a dream I had. Only when I started refining did I notice the parallels and decide to title it as such and post it here.
