Goren walked out of the store satisfied with what he bought. Women who passed him looked on in admiration. Every step he took made him feel like running.
Never knew I could feel like this
Like I've never seen the sky before
Want to vanish inside your kiss
Every day I love you more and more.
Finally, he arrived at her apartment. He knocked on the door, and waited for her to answer.
Listen to me heart, can you hear it sing?
Telling me to give you everything?
Seasons may change, winter to spring
She opened the door, and looked at him in surprise.
"Bobby, what are you doing here? I'm leaving in three hours." Goren took a deep breath. He had to do this.
"Marry me Alex."
But I love you
Until the end of time.
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Until my dying day.
He produced the ring he'd bought. It was a beautiful silver one with a diamond with a Turquoise on either side. It wasn't much, but he figured the love would make up the rest of the beauty.
"What? Bobby, I…I uh…oh god." She couldn't believe this. She was going to be leaving NY soon, and he just showed up with a ring asking her to marry him. It was like a fairytale, and she loved it.
Suddenly the world
Seems such a perfect place
"I know It's not much, it's all I could afford. Just…Alex, I love you. I want you in my life forever," he said, his voice shaky.
Suddenly it moves
With such a perfect grace
"Bobby, I love you too, but I'm leaving. This is just so sudden."
Suddenly my life doesn't seem such a waste
It all revolves around you.
Goren laughed. "That's what I love about it. You know I woke up this morning and thought I was going to die, and I went out and watched the sun rise. And I thought 'I can't let this beautiful, wonderful woman walk out of my life forever'. And you know me, once I start something I'm no quitter." Alex rubbed her eyes.
"How will it work? Would you move with me?" she asked.
"Just stay Alex. And if you won't, then I'll come with you," he felt she was slipping a bit, and tried harder to convince her.
And there's no mountain too high
No river to wide
Sing out this song and I'll be there by your side
Alex was just lost for words, which wasn't often.
"What about the fighting- "
"I'll make it work. We'll make it work together. We'll buy a whole load of those stress balls, and squish. And you can have those girl's night outs and I'll stay at home with the boys, and everyone will say 'they are the perfect couple'. Alex smiled.
"You really think so?" she said, leaning against the doorframe. Goren gazed into her eyes.
"I do," he said quietly.
Storm clouds may gather and storms may collide
But I love you
Until the end of time
"Then I do to," she answered
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Until my dying day.
Goren took the ring and slipped it onto her finger, and picked her up and kissed her. He twirled her around, just like she was at the beach.
"I'm going to make you so happy," he assured her. She put her fingertips over his lips.
"I know you will."
Come what may
Come what may
I will love you
Until my dying day.
