She walks away
The colors fade to gray
Every precious moment now a waste

She hits the gas
Hoping it would pass
But the red light starts to flash
It's time to wait

And the black keys never looked so beautiful
And a perfect rainbow never seemed so dull
And the lights out
Never had this bright a glow
And the black keys showing me a world I never knew, no
A world I never knew

She hates the sun
Cause it proves she's not alone
And the world doesn't revolve around her soul
She loves the sky cause it validates her pride
Never lets her know when she is wrong

And the black keys never looked so beautiful
And a perfect rainbow never seemed so dull
And the lights out
Never had this bright a glow
And the black keys showing me a world I never know

Yeah
The walls are closing in
Don't let em get
Inside of your head
Don't let em get
Inside of your head
Don't let em get
Inside of your head
Don't let them inside

Cause the black keys never looked so beautiful
And a perfect rainbow never seemed so dull
Oh-oh
And the lights out never had this bright a glow
And the black keys showing me a world I never know

Don't let em get
Don't let em get
Inside of your head
No
Don't let em get yeah
Inside of your head
Don't let em get
Don't let em get
Inside of your head
Don't let em get
Oh-oh
Inside of your head

Sometimes a fight is better black and white

.

She didn't think I was crazy that's a good start.

He didn't appear for the rest of the meal, surprisingly I missed his presence. I was so used to having him around. This night was the best of my life, and it wasn't over yet.

We finished our meals.

"This was wonderful Greg, thank you." She told me, wiping her mouth with her napkin.

"It was my pleasure." I told her, looking deeply in her eyes.

She gave me that smile, which illuminated the whole room.

"Do you want me to play the piano to you?" I asked her, shyly.

"I'd love that. Please do." She demanded.

I did as she wished, I walked over to her chair and I offered my hand, she took it. I brought her to the piano bench. I sat beside her.

"This I wrote for you, it's the song that you heard me play so many times, without me telling you what song it was. It's your song, Lisa. I wrote it in Michigan and have improved it since.

She looked at me, with watery eyes.

I pressed my fingers on the keys.

It was only black and white, but they all had different notes. For a long time, I thought it was the most beautiful thing in the world, but now I have Lisa. And that changed everything.

The melody and the meaning of the song blended together, like unspoken words, yet to be revealed. Emotions yet to be shared. And hearts ready to be completed. And a life to be fulfilled.

The song echoed throughout the room, making Lisa and my hearts shaking and beating faster as I showed her who I truly was inside. I was playing faster and with more ease. I never forgot to love. I just didn't love the right person. Now I am and I feel like my life has been put back together.

As I finished the song, I didn't look up; my eyes stared at the keys, like they were my soul. It's like I have given her everything and confessed everything.

Applause was heard as well as whistles.

I smiled.

I finally looked up. The ocean found its color, as the blue found the green.

Her eyes were sparkling, like stars in a shining night.

"it was beautiful." She told me, sincerely, trying not to cry.

I stroked her cheek, hearing the applause coming from the other room.

They wanted an encore.

I was going to give it to them, especially for Lisa.

I pushed down once more on the notes, letting the melody flow.

I opened my mouth ready to sing.

Find Me Here
Speak To Me
I want to feel you
I need to hear you
You are the light
That's leading me
To the place where I find peace again.

You are the strength, that keeps me walking.
You are the hope, that keeps me trusting.
You are the light to my soul.
You are my purpose...you're everything.

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

You calm the storms, and you give me rest.
You hold me in your hands, you won't let me fall.
You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.
Would you take me in? Take me deeper now?

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

Cause you're all I want, You're all I need
You're everything,everything
You're all I want your all I need
You're everything, everything.
You're all I want you're all I need.
You're everything, everything
You're all I want you're all I need, you're everything, everything.

And How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

Applause came immediately as I finished.

I could tell that Lisa was moved, but she was getting tired, and so was I.

I kissed her fully on the lips, tasting the sweetness of the wine on her lips.

We got up from the bench got our stuff when the owner came.

"That was wonderful Greg, just beautiful." He said to me.

"Well, she's even more beautiful." I told him looking at Lisa.

"Thank you for dinner." Lisa said to him.

He came over and gave her a hug, she hugged back.

He whispered something in her ear, something so low; I couldn't intercept what he had said.

She smiled and I couldn't help but smile as well.

We said our goodbyes and left the room to go into another one, with everybody cheering.

The place was full; I could see a dozen of people outside as well. They were smiling, applauding and they were just happy. I said thank you to everybody and left.

I saw a glimpse of Paul within the crowd. I wondered why he didn't talk to me. I took Lisa's hand and went toward a women. The women that was always there. I have always wanted to get something from her for someone. Lisa followed me.

"Hi. I would like everything." I told her.

She looked elated.

I gave her a hundred dollar bill. She refused it.

"I insist, take it." I told her.

She finally did, grateful.

She gave me every single flower she had. They were beautiful and they were all for Lisa. She gave me a bouquet of red roses. Twenty of them. I gave them to her and said.

"Each rose is for each year that I didn't say the words I love you." I told her.

She took them, on the edge of crying.

The lady gave me an Orchid.

"this one represents my love for you." I told her.

The lady gave me more flowers; she helped us bring them all to the car. Lisa was stunned that I bought all of those flowers but she was so happy. She was pleased.

We put them all in the car; the scent of fresh flowers was smelled in the whole car. It smelled nice and it was calming.

I drove to Lisa's house, so we could put the flowers in vases.

It took 30 minutes to do all of them; we were exhausted and decided to go to bed. She invited me to stay, and I accepted.

I followed her to her room. I took my pants of and my t-shirt and just stayed in my boxers.

I went under the covers. Lisa did the same. She was wearing a white shirt and short shorts.

She wrapped her legs around me, being careful of my leg. She rested her chin on my chest.

"I had a wonderful time, Greg." She told me.

"me too."

"thanks for the flowers, they are just beautiful."

"it was my pleasure. I was happy to get them for you." I told her.

"I love you." I told Lisa.

"I love you too." Lisa told me.

She yawned.

"Good night." I told her.

"Night, Greg."

We closed our eyes.

Lisa POV:

A noise had waked me up. My eyes shot open to see a man looking at me.

I was startled.

"Shh." He said to me.

"Who are you?" I whispered.

"I'm Paul."

"You're Paul?! Why can I see you?" I asked him.

"Because I wanted you to see me."

"okay." I told him, not fully understanding.

"I wanted to explain more in detail why I'm doing this." He told me.

I listen carefully.

"I saw you guys in the clinic, that day. I saw the love and yet the fear. I knew that you were both stubborn. I could see it. You couldn't confess to each other what you wanted so badly to say to one another. I lost my girlfriend just a couple of months ago and I felt sad. I felt that I had to put you two together. Like it was meant to happen. I wanted an opportunity to see love again, even if I wasn't experiencing it. I still saw it and it reminded me of Sara and I. I had to see you together. I'm sorry if I scared him or you. it wasn't my intention." He told me.

I was understanding now.

Everything became clear.

"Thanks for telling me." I told him.

"You're welcome."

With that he disappeared, only leaving the drops of tears.

I collapsed on my pillow, falling asleep once more.
