With All My Heart and Soul
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I remember stormy weather
The way the sky looks when it's cold
And you were with me
Content with walking
So unaware of the world
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I gulp back a new set of tears as I touch the photograph again. Your gorgeous hair dances around your face in a wondrous display of natural beauty. In the picture, a hint of a rain cloud can be seen in the corner. I recall that day with such profound love that often I start to cry as I stare at the photo. You were so beautiful, with a childish view on life because you weren't told what was happening to the people around you. You had never been touched by death…you were lucky.

Please don't drive me home tonight
'Cause I don't wanna feel alone
Please don't drive me home tonight
'Cause I don't wanna go

My hand crumbles the letter that changed everything: the seemingly innocent note that destroyed every wall I had built up around my heart for five years to keep you from seeing how I really felt about you. After I received that letter, I knew I could never live without you.

Tuesday morning
In the dark
I was finding out
Who you are
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I wish you hadn't changed when I told you how I felt. Suddenly, my best friend was replaced by a jealous, short-tempered, snobby girlfriend that I was quickly losing interest in. Was that your plan from the beginning: win my heart, but then change yourself completely? Was I a pawn in some elaborate scheme to become popular?
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I took your picture
While you were sleeping
And then I paced around the room
If I had known then
That these things happen
Would they have happened with you?
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I think I know what happened to you: you thought your social status was more important than our relationship. That wasn't like you, but something in your head may have said, "He's my boyfriend now. He's popular, so now I have to become some flashy, egotistic girlfriend to fit in with his image." You were my best friend for five years, and I told you countless times that I didn't like publicity. Maybe if you had remembered that, we could have been the perfect couple. I assure you that my next relationship will not end the same way ours did.

Please don't drive me home tonight
'Cause I don't wanna feel alone
Please don't drive me home tonight
'Cause I don't wanna go
Tuesday morning
In the dark
I was finding out
Who I was
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Life kept moving, even after "we" ended. Now, and possibly forever, it is "you" and "me"; there is no more "us" or "we". We are two very different people now. I hope you know that I don't blame our break up solely on you. I know that I changed too. I think that was the biggest flaw in our relationship: we only knew each other as friends. Neither of us expected a romantic relationship to change us so dramatically. One good thing came out of our poor attempt at love, however: I learned who I was, as a person and as a lover.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
And if you turned around to see me and I was gone
You should have looked outside your window
'Cause the sun was coming up
Please don't drive me home tonight
'Cause I don't wanna feel alone
Tuesday morning
In the dark
We were finding out
Who we are
Who we are
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
I'm sorry I won't be there for you anymore, but I can't love the person you've become. I tried—oh, how I tried—but I couldn't do it. I loved the "old" you with all of my heart and soul. Yet, the person you transformed into after we became a couple deserved, and received, none of my love. Next time you think that you are in love, don't change yourself. If you had stopped me when I left, I would have stayed, and I would've tried to get the girl I fell in love with back. But you didn't look outside your window to see me standing there…because that's who you are. And this is who I am. Goodbye, with all my heart and soul…
A/N: NO, THIS IS NOT A ONE-SHOT STORY! (Well, it will be if I don't get some reviews! ^_^) Nobody's probably ever heard this song, but it belongs to Michelle Branch, produced by John Shanks, and from I'm Still With The Band Music/Warner-Tamerlane Publishing Co. and Maverick Recording Company. It is off Michelle's album "Hotel Paper" (It's a great CD!), and the song is called "Tuesday Morning". It's probably my favorite song on the entire CD.
I really like feed back, even if it's negative! So please leave a review for me!
Okay, this is going to be shameless plugging, but if you like H/Hr romances and future generation stories, go read "Here We Go Around Again" by Favo de Mel. It's a really good story, and I'm helping on it! ^_^ Go read it!
Love ya'll!
