This song came on my iPod while I was in the shower and I got the itch to use the lyrics for a story. Well, two stories actually. Anyway, in case you've never heard the song before, it's called "Sky," and it's sung by Joshua Radin and Ingrid Michaelson.
I'm including the lyrics below as a sort of prequel to explain the inspiration behind each story.
Hope you enjoy!
(P.S. It's late and I wrote this all in one sitting, so if there are any typos, I apologize.)
I woke
dreaming we had broke
Dreaming you left me for someone new
And
you cried, drying those brown eyes
Crying you're sorry - sorry
won't do
But this is the way I need to wake
I wake to
you
And you never left me
All that I dreamt had been
untrue
Open my eyes
I see sky
Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know
the way to keep me on my toes
I, I, I will be fine - just say
you'll stay forever mine
'Til we fall asleep tonight
Last
night, we had a great fight
I fell asleep in a horrible state
Then
dreamt that you loved my best friend
My heart would not mend -
seemed it was fate
But this is the way I need to wake
I
wake to you
And you never left me
All that I dreamt had been
untrue
Open my eyes
I see sky
Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know
the way to keep me on my toes
I, I, I will be fine - just say
you'll stay forever mine
'Til we fall asleep tonight
Sometimes
I forget to love you like I should
But I'd never leave you - no, I
never would
I never would
Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know the way
to keep me on my toes
I, I, I will be fine - just say you'll stay
forever mine
Oh, oh, oh, oh, you know the way to keep me on my
toes
I, I, I will be fine - just say you'll stay forever mine
'Til
we fall asleep tonight
'Til we fall asleep tonight
