A/N: Day Twenty-One - A Song You Listen To When You're Happy. I chose "The Wanderer" by Dion. Rest assured, this chapter's much more cheerful than the last one :P
Day Twenty-One: The Wanderer
…
Oh well, I'm the type of guy who will never settle down
Where pretty girls are well, you know that I'm around
I kiss 'em and I love 'em 'cause to me they're all the same
I hug 'em and I squeeze 'em they don't even know my name
They call me the wanderer
Yeah, the wanderer
I roam around, around, around
...
In the back of his mind it occurred to Robbie that "The Wanderer" was probably not the most appropriate song for him to be singing to one year old Sophia. But he couldn't help it; it had been almost like his theme song for so long that a part of him couldn't let it go.
Not to mention the fact that the tune was just perfect for dancing around the kitchen with her, which he was in the process of doing.
"Oh well, there's Flo on my left and there's Mary on my right
And Janie is the girl that I'll be with tonight
And when she asks me, which one I love the best?
I tear open my shirt I got Sophia on my chest…"
Robbie smiled as Sophia giggled at the mention of her name and he continued to dance around the kitchen, making her laugh.
"They call me the wanderer
Yeah, the wanderer
I roam around, around, around…"
It wasn't until years later that Sophia discovered that her name wasn't in the song at all, but the discovery only served to make the memories of dancing to 'their' song with her father all the more precious.
