Chapter 5 – Lurking in the Shadows

DISCLAIMER- I DON'T OWN SCHOOL OF ROCK OR ANY OF IT'S CHARACTERS. (I'D LOVE TO OWN JOEY GAYDOS JR. OR KEVIN CLARK THOUGH.)


Beauty queen of only eighteen

She had some trouble with herself

He was always there to help her

She always belonged to someone else

He was always there, watching her. Just watching. He never did anything to get her to notice him, he wasn't that kind of guy. He was a wallflower, she was one of the most mysterious girls he's ever seen. He wanted to know more about her but he couldn't.

I drove for miles and miles

And wound up at your door

I've had you so many times but somehow

I want more

He doesn't know why he ended up there. Right in front of her house. He looked up at her window and saw that she was on the phone. She was smiling. She seemed happy.

"Probably talking to her boyfriend..." He thought.

He wanted to walk up to her front door, ring the doorbell and take her away to where she can forget about her life in the US, that means forget about her boyfriend too.

I don't mind spending everyday

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

But there was nothing he could do. He wasn't going to take her away from that guy, it would only make her unhappy. Okay so she always seemed unhappy, but he knew she wasn't. He could see into her soul, he could see how she really felt.

Tap on my window knock on my door

I want to make you feel beautiful

I know I tend to get so insecure

It doesn't matter anymore

Everyday, every night, every hour, every minute, every second. All he could think about was her. Nothing else came to his mind. She was all he could see, hear and feel.

"I'm being overly passionate again..." he said to himself as he started walking home. "Why do I care so much anyway?" he quietly laughed at himself. "Why would I care? I've never cared about anything or anyone in my entire life, why now?"

It's not always rainbows and butterflies

It's compromise that moves us along

My heart is full and my door's always open

You come anytime you want

He wants to forget. Forget about everything he knows. Forget about what he feels. Forget about her. This was torture for him.

"I'm the type of kid that never cares!" he thought to himself "I don't even care about myself, until now. Now I care about someone, someone I don't even know." "I feel like I know everything about her though." his thoughts fought back.

I don't mind spending everyday

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved

She will be loved

And she will be loved

She will be loved

He shut the door of his room. He went to his desk and attempted to start his homework. He couldn't though. She was haunting him. She was in everything he did. He felt like he was going insane. He wanted it to stop.

"Is my life gonna be off-track just because of some girl?"

He threw his books on the floor and laid his head on the surface of his desk.

I know where you hide

Alone in your car

Know all of the things that make you who you are

I know that goodbye means nothing at all

Comes back and begs me Catch her every time she falls

Tap on my window knock on my door

I want to make you feel beautiful

He picked up his guitar and started strumming. D6-Dm6-D9. Over and over again. Each time his hand

I don't mind spending everyday

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved

She will be loved And she will be loved She will be loved

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye
