When I got another break from the tour I high tailed it back to Nashville, since I realized that I needed Deacon back focusing on the tour was starting to become impossible. When I got back to to Nashville all I wanted to do was run over to Deacon's house and kiss him but I promised Tandy that as soon as I got back I would go see her and catch up so I got in my car and drove over to Tandy's house. When I got there I realized how much I missed her Tandy had stepped up and took care of me when our mother died and when daddy and I started to have problems. For the next hour we talked all about the tour and all the places I saw. When the normal conversation started to dwindle Tandy could tell I was holding something back from her and she started to questioning me about it. Not being able to keep anything from her I told her everything from walking away from Deacon to my realization. Tandy being who Tandy is basically told me that going after him again was horrible idea because he almost brought me down with him and I try it again there's no guarantee that he won't do it again and this time succeed.
A part of me agrees with Tandy that maybe going after him would only end end worse than the last time and the last I barely survived . But a bigger part of me knows that I can't live without him any longer he's the reason I'm where I'm at in my career and the reason my heart keeps beating. So while its a big risk to go after him it's an even bigger risk to my heart not to. Tandy saw in my eyes that I wasn't going to listen so before I left she gave me a hug and told me to be careful and if anything happens she will always be there for me.
When I left I got in my car and drive right to Deacon's house when I got there I started to have some doubts . What if he's moved on? What if me leaving again broke him and he started to drink again? Before I could knock I heard music coming from inside and as much as I don't want
I set out on a narrow way, many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
Yes He did
I think about the years I spent, just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost, and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there, you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart, they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
But now I'm just rolling home into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you
Listening to him sing I knew that song was about me. Deacon always has this sound in his voice when he was singing about me or for me and no matter how much heart break we caused each other will change sound. Knowing that the song was about me answered my questions he still wanted me and he was still very much in love with me just like I was in love with him. I can't take being separated anymore I though I wanted to kiss him when I got off the bus but now that need was a lot stronger. So I picked up my hand knocked on his door and held my breath.
