I ordered a cup of coffee to see if I could over take these beers. The juke box began to play:
"Watch the sunrise on a tropic isle
See the pyramids along the Nile
Just remember darlin' all the while
You belong to me"
"He stood you up?"
"Yeah...well...I mean its probably my fault anyways..." she said fading off.
"Yea?" I asked totally disagreeing with her.
"It's my fault. I just can't make anyone happy. First Fred and then Michael....I mean..." she went silent.
"Oh C'mon Faith." I said softly, "it's not you. It's them"
She looked up, her eyes in tears, "Really Bos?" she said a bit sarcastically, "C'mon of course its me, I-"
"It's not Faith, it's them. They don't realize how good you are....it's their fault. They missed out on a wonderful person."
She smiled, "Your such a liar."
"See the marketplace in old Algiers
Send my photographs and souvenirs
Just remember when a dream appears
You belong to me"
"I'm not. I'm serious Faith. You're a great person and anyone would be so lucky to be with you."
"Oh yea?"
"Yes."
"Name one" she said contradicting me.
"Me."
Whoa...think before you speak Maurice.
"You're just saying that."
"Am I?"
"Yes you are."
"C'mon Faith, I Love you. We've been though everything together. You're my best friend, you're the one I always turn it when I'm in trouble, " I began to say with a half smile, I couldn't believe these words were coming out of my mouth, "You tell me everything. I tell you everything."
"I'd be so alone without you
Maybe, You'll be lonesome too and blue
Fly in the ocean in a silver plane
See the jungle when its wet with rain
Just remember til you're home again
You belong to me"
"It would never work out."
"Why?" I asked refusing to give up this easily.
She shook her head, "Because...it just wouldn't."
I grabbed her hand.
"Just one chance Faith, please, that's all I'm asking for....one." I said a little softer, "please..."
She sat there staring at me, "Why? Why me?"
"Its always been you, for the past 8 years, everyday, since the very first day I saw you...it's you."
"Fly the ocean in a silver plane

You belong to me."
