Author's Note: Hey all, hope everyone is well. Thank you for all of your awesome reviews! It may take me a little longer to get the chapters up. My Microsoft Office trial expired and I'm waiting to buy it. Writing it here, takes a little longer than I'm used to. I'll have a new chapter up soon. Here's a new one for y'all.

I DO NOT OWN VAMPIRE DIARIES OR THE CHARACTERS.

Chapter Nineteen:

~*.*~
'A lonely road crossed another state line.
Miles away from those I love, purpose hard to find.
While I recall all the words you spoke to me,
Can't help but wish that I was there, back where I'd love to be.
Oh, yeah.

Dear God, the only thing I ask of you
Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I am much too far away.
We all need that person, who can be true to you.
But I left her when I found her and now I wish I stayed –
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired. I'm missing you again.
Oh, no. Once again.

There's nothing here for me on this barren road.
There's no one here while the city sleeps and the shops are closed.
Can't help but think of the times I've had with you –
Pictures and some memories will have to help me through.
Oh, yeah.'
~*.*~

I woke up with a start, clutching my blankets to my chest. I scrambled out of bed and tried to wake myself up. I don't remember dreaming anything. I have no idea what has me feeling this wigged out. Whatever it is, I don't like it. I grabbed my cell off of the charger and sank down into an armchair. I turned it on and checked my inbox.

I can't make any promises about not killing Lexi, but she's being a lot less nagging than I thought she would be. Don't worry about things here. We can handle Stefan. I trust you – I don't trust Klaus. I can't sleep. I keep thinking about you.
-Damon

I smiled at his message.

Are you still up?
-Bonnie

I waited for his response and checked the rest of my messages. Stefan hasn't texted me back. I don't have any messages from Lexi or Caroline. My phone lit up. It's Damon.

Yes. I'm pretty sure that's what 'I can't sleep' means
-Damon

You're such a smartass. Call me?
-Bonnie

I didn't have to wait long. My phone vibrated my lap. I answered it.

"Hey, I'm sorry you couldn't sleep." I told him. I glanced at the clock. I had only been asleep for maybe an hour, so much for resting.

"It's not easy when I've a sexy-ass witch on the brain." I can picture him smirking.

"That's not my fault. Seriously, though, are you okay?"

"I don't know what I am. I'm missing you. I can't touch you from here."

"So… This is because you're horny, or because you're needy?" I teased.

"I think we've switched roles here." He sighed. "I wanna hold you, Judgy."

"I want that, too. I hate not knowing when I'll see you again."

"I know, baby. It's hard on everyone. You'll be safe, right?" He asked.

"As safe as I can be. If it makes you feel any better, I miss touching you, too. I really missed it, earlier." I whispered.

"Where do you miss me touching you?" He asked, his voice getting lower.

"Everywhere – we were dancing in a club and I just wanted your hands on me." I told him.

"Naughty girl," I can just picture him smirking. "So, if I was with you, and my hands were to slip inside of your pants and start massaging you, you wouldn't mind it?"

"That's exactly what I'm saying." I told him. He groaned.

"I'm going to be so horny when you get back." He whined.

"You'll be fine."

"Were you able to sleep at all?" He asked.

"Maybe an hour or so." I told him. My phone started beeping. I looked at it. Stefan is calling me. "Hey, Stefan is calling me. I'll text you in a bit. I love you." I told him.

"Night Judgy." He hung up. I switched calls.

"Hello?"

"Hi Bonnie," Stefan doesn't sound thrilled to be talking to me.

"Is everything okay? I've been worried." I told him. He snorted.

"Please, we both know that you're more concerned with my brother."

"Stefan, you know that isn't true."

"So, you weren't just on the phone with him?"

"That's not fair. I texted you. You never got back to me. I didn't want to nag you or make things worse if you were on edge. I love you. I'm doing the best that I can, Stefan."

"It's not good enough, Bonnie. I can't share you with him. I've done that before. I don't like it. Things are so much simpler when I just don't care. I don't know why I was so obsessed with staying in touch with my humanity. It just makes me weak. You make me weak. I don't need you, Bonnie. It's not like you're here, anyway. So, I'm taking myself out of the equation. Damon can have you all to himself. And I, well, I'm going to go kill some bitches. It's long overdue."

"Stefan, you can't mean that. Please, don't do something you'll regret."

"It's too late for that. I've been doing things I've regret since I met you. I'm a vampire, baby. We can't be tamed. Have a nice life with Klaus. You should know, he has a kinky side." Stefan hung up. I stared at the phone and called Damon.

"Did you hear that?" I demanded.

"Bonnie, slow down." He said.

"Stefan is flipping his switch. He doesn't want to deal with his feelings. He said we're done. He's gonna do something bad, Damon. Please, don't let him self-destruct." I said, hurriedly. Damon cursed under his break.

"Damn it. I don't know what's going on with him. I'll do my best to find out. I gotta go handle this. I love you, Witchy. I'll talk to you when I can." He hung up. My heart feels like it was ripped out of my chest. Stefan and I are through. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't seen it coming. He's been so distant. He's been different since Katherine became a factor, again. There's no way I'm sleeping tonight. I got up and unlocked the adjoining door to Elijah's room. I knocked, tentatively. I hope he's awake. After a minute Elijah opened the door, shirtless. He looked confused.

"Are you alright?" He asked. I shook my head. I wanna cry. I feel pathetic. He's the closest thing I have to a friend, here. I need someone to lean on, right now. Texting or calling someone back home isn't going to cut it.

"I don't think so." I told him.

"Come in. I'll make you some tea." He told him. I nodded. He motioned over to his bed. I sat down. "What happened?"

"Long story short, Stefan is being a puss. And he decided he doesn't want to be with me anymore. He told me I wasn't enough for him." I told him, refusing to cry. Sympathy washed over his body. He set the tea kettle on his suite table and came over to comfort me. He pulled me into a hug. He's never been affectionate towards me, not that I'm complaining. It's nice. "I'm never good enough." I sniffled. Elijah pulled away and looked at me.

"You're extraordinary. Don't sell yourself short. Everyone has their demons. You can't control what goes on with him or in Mystic Falls from afar. If this is something he has to work out, he has to do so himself. If there is one thing that I've learned in all of my years, it's that."

"Why do you have to sound so smart?"

"It's one of my many talents."

"I really like talking to you." I told him. He smiled.

"Do you feel any better?" He asked. I nodded. Is this all bad? I've been drawn to Damon. I don't want to think about this tonight.

"I don't want to be alone tonight. Is it okay if I sleep here?" I asked him. He looked startled but nodded. "Thank you."

"What would you like to do?"

"Lay down and talk. Just talk until I fall asleep." I told him. He nodded.

"Alright. Let me grab the extra blankets out of the linens cabinet."

A loud banging pulled me out of my dreams. I sat up in bed and looked around the room, trying to pinpoint the ruckus. Elijah stirred next me and peeled himself outta bed.

"Bed head works for you." I told him. He chuckled as he made his way to the door. It's so much different seeing him so relaxed like this. It's a big difference than how he behaves in his usual suit and tie.

"I'm glad you approve, Bonnie." He smiled. My stomach fluttered. That man could have anyone on their knees for him. He peeped through the peephole and opened the door, grudingly. Who is it? The only person who know here is Klaus.

"Elijah, please, tell me you know where Bonnie is." Klaus' voice filled the room.

"Relax Klaus." I told him, crawling out of bed. "I needed a friend last night and Elijah was kind enough to keep me company."

"I see." Klaus smirked. He took in my disheveled appearance. "Is that all it was? Did my brother help you scratch an itch you just couldn't scratch? Because I'd be glad to offer my services."

"Not everything is about sex, you know. Some men have more to them than their dicks." It was my turn to smirk.

"I was a gentleman, Niklaus. Just because you fantasize about her every waking moment, doesn't mean that every man does." Elijah's eyes shined with amusement.

"See." I told him. "What's on the agenda today?" I asked.

"Apparently not having sex." He sighed. "We are going to have breakfast and then we are going to continue on our way. But first, I would like to talk with you, Bonnie." Klaus stared at me.

"Alright, but first I need to speak with Elijah." I told him.

"Very well, I will wait for you in your room." He excused himself and left the room.

"I just wanted to thank you. I really appreciate you." I told him. He smiled and pulled me into a hug.

"Is that not what friends are for? Last night was as much for me as it was for you. It has been a long time since I have had companionship such as yours. It is a welcomed change. My door is open for you anytime." He told him. I smiled at him. He placed a chaste kiss on my temple. "Before Niklaus tries to fill your head with delusions, I am not gay, and I most certainly find you very attractive." He winked. I laughed.

"I better see what he wants before he tries to break down the door." I joked. I went back into my room to find Klaus waiting on my bed. He's sprawled out, shoes off and everything.

"Hello Love," he smirked. I rolled my eyes and took a seat next to him.

"What do you want, Klaus?"

"Isn't it obvious Love? I want you..." He winked. I didn't say anything. He smirked. "I want to talk with you, anyway."

"About?" I pressed.

"You were a hit last night. The wolves are more likely to trust me with allies at my side. Having a sexy Bennett witch can't hurt anything. Many of them knew your relatives or have heard of your family's name."

"Okay, but what does that have to do with right now?"

"I want you to keep doing that and to persuade them to join me. I need them. They're going to help me build an army."

"Has that been your game plan all along?"

"Yes, Love. I want to build an army. They're going to be like me when the time comes. You see, you don't know much about my genetics. Before my dear mother changed me, I had werewolf genes. She turned me into a vampire before they were awakened. That is where you come in. You're going to help me with a spell. A friend of mine is working on it. It should be the loophole that I need. Once it's complete, I will be a vampire-wolf hybrid. No one will match me. No one will dare." He smirked.

"Why are you telling me now? Why not before?"

"Because the time is right. You're growing on me."

"How sweet."

"Are you to tell me why you really spent the night with my brother?"

"I told you why."

"And why did you need a friend?" His eyes bored into mine. It's Luke he knows but he just wants me to admit to him.

"Not that it's any of your business, but Stefan broke things off with me last night. And Elijah is a lot easier to talk to than you are."

"I see. You know, my offer still stands. I would gladly worship your body, any day." He promised. I didn't say anything.

"I need to get changed." I changed the subject. He nodded.

"I'm not as bad as you think." He told me before leaving me my thoughts.

I took my time in the shower. I wanted to wash away everything unpleasant. As hard as I tried, I knew I would be unsuccessful. It's nice to have some peace and quiet. No matter what I tried, my thoughts wondered to Stefan. I hope he doesn't do anything he will regret. Elijah was right. Stefan can't be helped unless he wants to be. Until then, there is nothing I can for him. I refuse to try and force someone to be with me who doesn't want to, no matter who or the circumstance.

I got dressed, slowly. I took my time on my hair and a little bit of makeup. I put on a matching set of lace, scarlet underthings. I picked through my clothes and decided on a pair of black, high-waisted, skinny jeans. I pulled out a crimson, half-sleeved cardigan and a gray camisole. I put them on and slid on my violet pumps. I packed up my things and when the find the Mikaelson brothers.

Breakfast was much more relaxed than our first meal together. It feels like someone cleared the air. I'm afraid of them anymore. Yeah, j probably should be scared of Klaus, but he needs me and he probably doesn't wanna hurt his nonexistent chance of getting in my pants. And Elijah is my bud. I feel comfortable around him. I'm sure something will happen sooner rather than later to change that, but for now, I'll enjoy it.

"Did the two of you sleep well?" Klaus asked. He hasn't let this go all morning.

"Yes." I told him, curtly. I kept eating my omelet.

"Jealous brother?" Elijah asked. Klaus smirked.

"Yes, quite." Klaus winked. I rolled my eyes.

I fidgeted in the car. I've already burned through two books. I'm too antsy to read another. I don't mind car rides, but I'm not used to ones this long. I pulled out my ipod and psushed my earbuds into my ears. I turned up the volume and started humming along.

I'm still not sure where we are going but I doubt we will be there soon. We seem to be travelling all over before stopping at our actual destination. My understanding is that he has recruits scattered across the country. I don't know who would join him on empty promises. The spell sounds like a long shot, butt if I can't do it, I will pay with my life.

I peered out the window as the car started to slow. We're coming up on an abandoned house. At least, it looks to abandoned. Who are we after here?

Elijah stopped the car and we climbed out. Klaus offered me his arm. I took it, gingerly. He opened the door for me and led me inside. There are three men around an old looking table. This place doesn't look lived in, but it looks like it's used regularly. I'm sure they wanted to meet with us on neutral ground. I can't seem them inviting us into their homes.

I'm guessing this is a were thing, but they're definitely not lacking in the looks department. They tensed up the moment we entered the household. They're all staring at us, in turn.

"Mason?" I asked. One of the guys looks exactly like Tyler's uncle. Goddess, he got hotter. Mason stood up and walked over to me. I let go of Klaus' arm and looked at him. He searched my face and beamed.

"Well, I'll be damned. Little Bonnie Bennett isn't so little, anymore." He pulled me into an almost bone-crushing hug. "You look good."

"So do you." I told him, smiling back.

"How's my nephew doin'?"

"He's really good." I told him.

"That's good to hear. Now, I heard you have a proposition for us." He said to Klaus. He nodded.

"Bonnie why don't you wait for us outside, for a moment. Elijah will collect you when we're finished with our business." Klaus told me.

"Alright." I don't see what the point is. I mean, they drag me everywhere, but I can't know any of the specifics. I can see why they wouldn't want me to know, but why must I be here?

"It's good seeing you Bonnie. We'll have to catch up before you leave. I have some questions about Sheila." Mason smiled. I nodded.

"Sounds good, Lockwood." I told him, leaving the house. I closed the door behind me and settled down on the porch. I stretched out my legs and got comfortable. It's better than being couped up in the car.

I pulled out my grimoire and started reading. I've read through most of it, but I would rather know it by heart. I don't want to find myself screwed without it. I took of my necklace and started practicing a protection
spell. I started reciting in Latin and waited. It grew hot and cooled. I looked at it. It doesn't look any different, but neither did Caroline's daylight ring. I put it back on.

After pouring over the book for what felt like forever, I put it in my bag and pulled out my phone. I called Damon.

"Hey, how is everything?" I asked.

"They're awesome." He told me, sarcastically. I chuckled.

"I'm serious Damon. Talk to me." I asked.

"I don't want to worry you. I have things handled. We are doing what we can for Stefan, but if he wants to take a dive off the deep end, there's only so much we can do to stop him. It's inevitable. I'm sorry." He apologized.

"It's not your fault. I'm sorry I'm not there to help you. Are you holding up, okay?"

"It's nothing that I haven't been through before. I keep thinking about you."

"You're always on my mind." I told him. "I don't know how long I can talk for. You'll never guess who I ran into, Mason Lockwood." I told him.

"Tyler's uncle?"

"That's the one. I can't give you specifics." I heard someone open the door. "Look, I've got to go. I love you. Bye." I hung up and pocketed my phone. I looked behind me. It's Mason. "How did you get mixed up in all of this?"

"I was about to ask you the same, but let's just say when an Original asks for a meeting, they make it difficult to refuse." He looked at me.

"They need something from me and it was the only way to keep everyone safe." I told him. He nodded.

"You have Sheila's talent, then?" He asked. I nodded.

"It's nice to see a familiar face." I told him. He smirked.

"It's been a long time since I've seen someone outside of the pack. You're a sight for sore eyes." He put an arm around me. I laughed.

"You said you had questions for me?"

"Is Sheila still in Mystic Falls?"

"She is." I told him.

"Awesome. I'll be in town next week. I need to see her. Is there anything you want me to tell her?" He asked.

"Tell her I love her." I told him. He nodded.

"Let me see your phone. I'll give you my number. If you ever need anything, hit me up." He took my phone. The door opened as he gave it back. He moved his arm after me.

"Let's go, Bonnie." Elijah helped me up.

"It was nice seeing you." I told Mason.

"I'll be seeing you again, soon." He smiled. I nodded and headed to the car.

"Where are we going now?" I asked Klaus. It's supposed to be the last stop of the day. Klaus just smirked. He hasn't told me anything. At least this place is around actual civilization. As soon as the door opened I knew where we were. It's a strip club. Really? I had to come here with them? Really? I don't understand why they couldn't handle this one solo - wait, yes I do. Klaus is a perv. Yeah. That about sums it up.

"Does this answer you question?" Klaus smirked. I rolled my eyes. "That's a terrible habit." He mused.

"You'll get over it." I told him.

"I've come to enjoy it, Love." He went straight to the bar and ordered a drink. I don't know where Elijah is. He was supposed to meet us here. I accepted a drink from Klaus. He started sipping on his, eyeing me. I sighed.

"Who are we here to talk to?"

"You'll meet them soon enough."

"You're so cryptic." I complained. "It's annoying."

"It's all part of the charm, Love."

"What charm, Niklaus?" Elijah asked. I choked on my drink, laughing too hard.

"Careful brother." Klaus smirked. I chuckled, getting my choking under control.

Stefan's POV

I groaned as I watched some nameless blonde climb on top of me. Damn, I've missed this. Things have always been so much simpler when I can't feel. I could see Bonnie falling for my brother. I lived through it with Katherine, I'm not going to repeat that chaos. This way, everyone wins. I can fuck who I like, feed on who I like, and feel what I like. No matter how hard I try, or who I sleep with, she's always on my mind.

I tore off the blonde's clothes and sucked on her neck. She moaned and I heard Bonnie's voice. I buried myself inside of her and imagined someone else. I plowed into her until her body couldn't take it anymore. I bit into her neck and let her blood fill my mouth. I stopped just shy of her death. Her body fell to the floor. There's no turning back. I don't know what I'm doing but I can't stop. I don't want to feel her anymore. I can't live with another rejection.

"Stefan!" Lexi burst into my room. She took in my ragged appearance. I smirked as she rushed to the sleeping girl. "What have you done?!" She screeched. She picked up the girl and set her on my bed.

"Apparently, I've bloodied my sheets."

"What is going on with you? Ever since Katherine came back, you've been a different person. Why are you doing this?" She's shaking with anger. I chuckled.

"Isn't it obvious? She isn't coming back, Lex."

"Bonnie? She is coming back! You know that. No, this isn't it. It's not something she did. This is all you. You were fine when she left. Don't shift the blame when we both know this isn't her fault."

"She's falling for Damon. That's what always happens." I growled.

"Are you listening to yourself? You sound like a PMSing bitch. And in case you've forgotten, Katherine chose you. Damon was her second choice. Bonnie hasn't chosen anyone over anyone else. Is that the issue?"

"That doesn't mean that it won't end up the same way."

"Bonnie is a different person. You should have talked to her. Even if she had been leaning towards Damon, you're definitely thrusting her into his arms, now. What makes you think she would saddle up with a homicidal maniac?"

"She chose my brother."

"And he's reformed. He hasn't killed since they've been together. You know that. And she also chose you. Stop acting like a bitch and get it together. Do you hear me? You think I was bad before when I had to turn you back from The Ripper? You haven't seen anything yet. You have until tomorrow to get yourself under control or I'll do it for you. I've had enough of your tantrums. Grow the fuck up, Stefan. You're not a child. Stop acting like one." Lexi spat. She walked out of my room, taking the girl with her, and slamming the door behind her. I smirked.

"We'll see."

Bonnie's POV

"You have an excellent body... If you ever wanted to explore your wild side, I'm sure we could find a position here for you." A woman sat down beside me, eyeing my body. I was too shocked to say anything. Really? REALLY? "That's a compliment - I promise." She assured me. I remained silent.

"I'm fine, thanks." I finally told her. Klaus' smirk broke out into a full-on grin.

"That's something I'd like to see." He chimed in. I glared at him.

"There are a lot of things that you'd like to see that will never happen." I told him, sweetly. His smiled sank, slightly.

"It's nice to finally meet you, Klaus." She woman shook his hand. She's pretty. She has fiery, red hair, intense green eyes, and perfect teeth to boot. Is she the one in charge here?

"I see you've already met my sister." A man walked up with a dazzling smile. There's no doubt that they're related. He has strawberry-blond hair, softer green eyes, the same perfect teeth, and much more of a tan.

"I'm Lindsay Chase and this is my brother, Lucas. We run Mystique Enterprises. We have five other locations throughout the country. It's a supernaturally influenced business. We run a tight ship. It's necessary for our establishment to continue on as it does. You'll find that your abilities are limited while inside, as well as magic." She explained, her eyes still on me. What did I do to her?

"How long have you been running this establishment?" I asked, my curiosity getting the best of me. Lucas smiled.

"About ten years now, you'd be surprised the amount of interest we have. No one likes hiding forever. A haven is always a welcomed idea." He explain. I nodded. I see.

"What does that have to do with us?" I asked. If Klaus isn't going to tell me, I may as well get my answers elsewhere.

"Mr. Mikaelson wanted to interact with our clientele for potential allies in his endeavors." He answered. It's always about business.

"And it doesn't hurt that it gives him an excuse to visit a strip club." I said, quietly. Everyone laughed. I was surprised to Klaus didn't say something. If this is supernaturally based, what are you?" I asked, meeting their eyes. Lindsay smiled and Lucas put a hand on my shoulder.

"We are vampires, my dear. We're not nearly as old as your friends, here. But, we've been around long enough to have picked up a thing or two." He expressed. Klaus smiled.

"Didn't you say you had a few interested parties?" Klaus asked. Lindsay nodded. "Let's go introduce ourselves. I'll leave you and Lucas to chat." Klaus excused Elijah, Lindsay and himself. I feel relieved. Lindsay gives me a weird feeling. I can't quite put my finger on it.

"Miss Bennett, your reputation precedes you." He smiled. I quirked an eyebrow. "Bennett witches are known to be powerful and some, beautiful." He smiled, again. I snorted.

"Thanks. I feel out of place. I never thought I'd actually find myself in a strip club." I admitted.

"They're not as bad as you think. We have ladies' nights as well." He winked. I blushed. I shook my head.

"I'll live life just fine without seeing a bunch of men taking off their clothes and shaking their asses."

"Is it too taboo?"

"It just feels a little too sleazy for my taste, not that there's anything wrong with it."

"I see. You're so old-fashioned. It's refreshing."

"You don't get a lot of it here?" I asked. He shook his head.

"If we did, we would be out of a lot of money. Wouldn't we?"

"I suppose."

"I can show you around, if you like." He offered. I nodded and got up from my seat, taking my drink with me. We walked around the main room and went back to the lobby. He took me upstairs. "We have private rooms up here, as well as a few rooms reserved for our more VIP guests."

"You're taking me to the naughty rooms." I mused. He chuckled.

"You could call them that."

I lounged on the couch. It's peaceful here. It feels like a little hideaway before you step into a world of unmasked desires. There's a dancing area right outside. They have stripper suspended in cages from the roof. It's imaginative - I'll give them that.

"This is my favorite room here." I told him. He chuckled.

"It's mine as well. My sister loves the environment. It takes its toll after awhile. It's nice to have tranquility." He mused. He's a cross between Elijah and Klaus. It's interesting.

"Love, there you are." Klaus came into the room. I looked over at him and nodded. "Let's dance. I know how much you enjoy it." He whispered in my ear. I hate that he's starting to affect me. I didn't let it show. I got up and followed him out to the floor. He weaved his hands around me, touching everywhere appropriate and everywhere that borderlines dangerous.

"Watch yourself." I told him. He beamed.

"I'd rather watch you." I rolled my eyes and turned around. He caught me before I could leave the dance-floor. "Stay."

"Behave or I'll dance with someone else."

"Fine." He agreed. He easily locked his arms around me. His stare could burn a hole through me. "Eventually you'll give in to me."

"Not likely." I told him. We moved to the music effortlessly. We always seem to end up here, dancing. It's the only stress reliever I have here. We stayed this way for awhile. "I need a break." I told him. He nodded.

"Of course, Love." He smirked. I rolled my eyes. I got a water and went back to the abandoned couch. My head is buzzing with energy. Elijah came in after me. He didn't say anything.

"Ready to get out of here?" Elijah asked. I nodded.

"Yes. I could go for a walk." I told him. He nodded.

"Niklaus has a few things to take care of, but I'd gladly accompany you." He helped me up. I leaned on him and followed him out of the club. We started walking down the road. He put an arm around me. It's chilly but no cool enough to put on my jacket. I'm still overheated from dancing.

"You're kind of awesome, you know that?" I told him. He smiled.

"Thank you, Bonnie."

"I mean it. I think you're smarter than anyone gives you credit for because Klaus is so out-there. You know?" I told him. He shook his head.

"Shall we return?" He asked. I nodded.

"Only if we can grab a burger after this. I'm tired and starving." I told him. We continued to walk in a comfortable silence. He opened the door for me.

"Niklaus will meet us at the diner." He told me. I nodded.

"Let's go eat." He turned on the car. I leaned over and kissed his cheek.

"Thank you." I told him.

~*.*~
'Well, some search, never finding a way-
Before long, they waste away.
I found you, something told me stay.
I gave in to selfish ways.
And how I miss someone to hold, when hope begins to fade.

A lonely road, crossed another cold state line.
Miles away from those we love, purpose hard to find.

Dear God, the only thing I ask of you
Is to hold her when I'm not around, when I'm much too far away.
We all need the person who can be true to you.
I left her when I found her and now I wish I stayed,
'Cause I'm lonely and I'm tired.
I'm missing you again.
Oh, no. Once again.'
