"Lorelai"
She left without leavin' a number
Said she needed to clear her mind
He figured she'd gone back to Boston.
'Cause she talked about it all the time
Luke stared at Lorelai with confusion. "So your just going to leave? Over one simple fight?" He asked.
"One simple fight? Luke, you can't trust me! How can we get married if you can't even trust me?" She yelled at him with tears in her eyes, slamming clothes into her suitcase."I need to get out of here, Im taking a job offer in Boston...I'll see you when I see you."
And with that she was gone, leaving a stunned and devestated Luke in her wake.
It was almost a year before she called him up
Three rings and an answering machine is what she got
If you're callin' 'bout the truck, I sold it
If this is Tuesday night I'm closing
If you've got somethin' to sell, you're wastin' your time, I'm not
buyin'
If it's anybody else, wait for the tone,
You know what to do
And P.S. if this is Lorelai, I still love you
Lorelai sat in her small apartment staring at the ceiling. It had been a full year now since she had seen him, and she knew she wanted to come home...So she picked up the phone...
The telephone fell to the counter
She heard but she couldn't believe
What kind of man would hang on that long
What kind of love that must be
She waited three days, and then she tried again
She didn't know what she'd say,
But she heard three rings and then
If it's Friday night I'm at the ballgame
And first thing Saturday, if it don't rain
I'm headed out to the lake
And I'll be gone, all weekend long
But I'll call you back when I get home
On Sunday afternoon
And P.S. If this is Lorelai, I still love you
Well, this time she left her number
But not another word
Then she waited by the phone on Sunday evenin'
And this is what he heard
Luke came through his aparment door and set his fishing gear in the closet. He took a deep sigh and went over to the couch to take off his boots. As he untied the laces he saw the red light of the answering machine blink. He got up and reached over to push the botton, and this is what he heard:
If you're callin' 'bout my heart
It's still yours
I should've listened to it a little more
Then it wouldn't have taken me so long to know where I belong
And by the way, Luke, this is no machine you're talkin' to
Can't you tell, this is Lorelai, and I still love you
I still love you
