*While You Were Sleeping*

I'm dying to catch my breath

Oh, why don't I ever learn?

I've lost all my trust, though I've surely tried to turn it around

Can you still see the heart of me?

All my agony fades away

When you hold me in your embrace

Don't tear me down for all I need

Make my heart a better place

Give me something I can believe

Don't tear me down

You've opened the door now, don't let it close

I'm here on the edge again

I wish I could let it go

I know that I'm only one step away from turning it around

It was a beautiful day, as Caroline stood in a basement. She stood there looking at the guy in silence for a moment, before asking him, "Who are you?"

"Lorenzo, but my friends call me Enzo," he answered her.

"The Enzo," she said, having heard of him.

"No. The other one," he joked.

He gave a smile.

*Rescue Me*

Can you still see the heart of me?

All my agony fades away

When you hold me in your embrace

Don't tear me down for all I need

Make my heart a better place

Give me something I can believe

Don't tear it down, what's left of me

Make my heart a better place

I tried many times but nothing was real

Make it fade away, don't break me down

I want to believe that this is real

Save me from my fear

Don't tear me down

Caroline sat next to Enzo at the hospital. When he said something, she looked at him.

"Dear God. Please don't tell me I'm the reason you're here."

"Why not? From what Damon tells me, I am your type. Well-traveled, charming accent, dodgy morals."

"Totally tactless, completely unable to take a hint," she added for him.

"Precisely," he agreed.

*Home*

Don't tear me down for all I need

Make my heart a better place

Don't tear me down for all I need

Make my heart a better place

Give me something I can believe

Don't tear it down, what's left of me

Make my heart a better place

Make my heart a better place

Caroline was seated against a pillar, sobbing. Then she felt a ghostly touch on the side of her face. She knew it was Enzo.

"Please don't leave me," she sobbed.

"I don't have a choice Caroline, luv," he said, though he knew that she couldn't hear him.
