The plane landed 4 hours later in Shreveport and Bobby dropped me off a Fangtasia and took my luggage home to my dad's place. I unlocked the door and walked in, got myself a drink and walked up to the bands stand that was in the corner. I looked at the clock to see what the time was as I knew that the staff would soon be coming in to set up for the night and he band Clearway, that they had playing seemed to be really good.
I picked up the guitar and stared strumming along trying to find a nice rhythm. After about half an hour I had finally made a couple of songs.
Grew up in a small town
And when the rain would fall down
I'd just stare out my window
Dreaming of what could be
And if I'd end up happy
I would pray
Trying hard to reach out
But when I tried to speak out
Felt like no one could hear me
Wanted to belong here
But something felt so wrong here
So I'd pray
I could break away
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly.
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky.
Make a wish, take a chance,
Make a change, and break away.
Out of the darkness and into the sun.
But I won't forget all the ones that I love.
I'll take a risk, take a chance,
Make a change, and break away
Wanna feel the warm breeze
Sleep under a palm tree
Feel the rush of the ocean
Get on board a fast train
Travel on a jet plane
Far away
And break away
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly.
I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky.
Make a wish, take a chance,
Make a change, and break away.
Out of the darkness and into the sun.
But I won't forget all the ones that I love.
I'll take a risk, take a chance,
Make a change, and break away
Buildings with a hundred floors
Swinging with revolving doors
Maybe I don't know where they'll take me
Got to keep movin on movin on
Fly away
Break away
I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly.
Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye
Take a risk, take a chance,
Make a change, and break away.
Out of the darkness and into the sun.
But I won't forget the place I come from
I gotta take a risk, take a chance,
Make a change, and break away
Breakaway
Break away
I heard some clapping behind me so I turned around to find some staff watching me.
"Hi I'm Ginger. You have a really nice voice. Are you with the band playing tonight?" She asked
"Hi Ginger I'm Elsa, and no I'm not singing with the band tonight. I don't want any of you to get into trouble so how about you guys work and I'll sing a few songs while you do."
"Sure sweetie."
They all went back of o work and I started to play some music that I have heard throughout the last 10 years that I know how to play.
I'm Standing on a bridge
I'm waitin in the dark
I thought that you'd be here by now
Theres nothing but the rain
No footsteps on the ground
I'm listening but theres no sound
Isn't anyone tryin to find me?
Won't someone please take me home
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Wont you take me by the hand

I dont know who you are
but I'm, I'm with you

searching for a face

Isn't anyone tryin to find me?
Won't someone please take me home
It's a damn cold night
Trying to figure out this life
Wont you take me by the hand

Everyone had done what they needed for set up tonight and started dancing when they had finished. I had one song in my head that I just wanted to try out while the band wasn't here yet or my father. Humming the tune in my head first as I played around with the rhythm that I liked. Finally after 20 minutes I had the rhythm that I wanted now I just have to play it.
I took a quick sip of my water that I had next to me, then got comfortable and started to play the song.
take my time
checking my style
wondering no where
uh huh
all this time
spinning my head pretending I don't care
but its driving me crazy
i dont know what to say
i dont know what to do
and baby i've been thinking
that i should be with you
and if i fall into your arms tonight
would you let me stay forever
if i could fly
into your hearts desire
if i could fall
would you let me fall with you
mystified, these feelings inside
making my soul safe
oh yea
somethings are tight
spinning my heart
living for a race
and its driving me crazy
i dont care what they say
i don't care what the do
when knowing this is over
and i'll still be with you
CHORUS
and if i fall into your arms tonight
would you let me stay forever
if i could fly
into your hearts desire
if i could fall
would you let me fall with you
oh oh
let me fall with you
oh yea
uh huh
let me fall with you
put my life in your hands
put my heart on my sleave
as long as your inside me
love is all we'll need
catch me when i fall
we can have it all
as long as we're together
won't you promise me
catch me when i fall
we can have it all
as long as we're together
and if i fall into your arms tonight
would you let me stay forever
if i could fly
into your hearts desire
if i could fall
would you let me fall with you
if i should fall
let me fall with you
Once I had finished the song I didn't realise that my dad had walked in with Pam and a few others, that and the band was just staring at me gobsmacked. I gave them all a smile then put the guitar away as I had had enough of playing and the boys from the band needed to get set up.
When I got in front of Pam I jumped in her arms and hugged her tight. She was like my aunt and I loved her dearly. I heard a gasp from behind me so I let her go and went to my father's side and put an arm around his waist. He returned it and gave me a kiss in the head.
"Elsa, I would like to introduce you to Godric my maker, Isabel, Stan, Farrell, Jessica, Bill, and Sookie. Everyone I would like you to meet my daughter Elsa." He said.
I got a lot of nice to meet yous and hey's. But what got me shock the most was the woman named Sookie looked just like my mother. I shed a few tears just thinking of her. My dad's maker and Sookie just looked at me with concern.
"Are you alright little one?" Godric asked.
"I will be. I'm sorry it's just Sookie you look so much like my mother. I miss her deeply. And Godric thank you for changing my dad, if it wasn't for him I would have definitely been killed by the wolves. I do hope that we can talk a little later tonight but I must leave and get some foo before I get really cranky."
"No problem little one."
I walked over to dad and told him that I was going to get some food from down the street and that I would be back soon. He wanted to Pam to come with me but I just needed to be on my own for a little bit.
I walked out the door and down the street and got some food in my stomach. Once I was satisfied I started to head back to the bar but didn't get all the way the when I was knocked out cold.
