Sing
And when the sun hides behind the clouds
Follow it in
Never lose the light
Or you’ll lose sight
Of the music
That courses through your veins
E P I L O G U E
‘Well time did pass
And I lay with you
In the deep green grass
Hiding from everyone
And singing this song
I gaze at you
Singing this song
Looking at the boy who
Knew
Who understood
Well I can’t say
I didn’t notice
But yesterday
You didn’t run away
And singing this song
I gaze at you
Singing this song
Looking at the boy who
Knew
Who understood’
My last note faded out, and Jess smiled at me from his table near the stage, and I grinned back. Then I got up from my seat, picking up my acoustic guitar, and walked back behind the curtain, waiting for the applause to fade out.
I waited until I heard the last of the people leave the room, and then I went back out, ran down the stairs, and into Jess’ arms.
It was my first time playing in public, the third time Jess had ever heard me sing. It wasn’t a major concert, just a casual set up in a room above the pub, but I enjoyed it, and by some miracle, so did the audience.
I gave him a quick kiss before I ran out the door, dragging him behind me by the hand, laughing wildly.
This was my life.
And I loved it, because whatever happened, I knew that I’d always have Jess.
