I really like this one, as it is the first song I have ever dedicated to a Boys Town character other than Whitey. Even if it is a character that I came up with...
This song is called Can't Take My Eyes Off You by Boys Town Gang. (*that's the actual band*)
This also may take me a few days to complete, since I am starting this chapter pretty late in the day.
I got my X-Rays yesterday, and the technician said it would take from 3-4 days for the results.
This chapter will mainly be based on Micah.

Micah's POV:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today, I am not too busy with my work as one of Freddie's commissioners.
I am bored, what should I do?
Oh, I know!
My dad gave me his guitar for my 10th birthday, and I keep it somewhere special. Freddie doesn't know about this.
I got it out, and I started to play a few chords.
What should I play!
Oh I know! I will come up with a song!
I think it should go something like this...
(beginning to Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You by Boys Town Gang plays on his guitar)
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
Oh, I want to hold you so much
At last, love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
I can't take my eyes off of you
Continues with more lyrics to the song.
I can't take my eyes off of you...
da da da di da da da da da da di da da
(*whitey walks past the dormitory*)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Whitey's POV:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"That's a wicked beat! Who is playing this song?" I thought to myself upon hearing the beat.
(*I walked into the band room*)
"Who's in here?"
"Oh boy, you scared me!" Micah exclaimed.
"What are you playing?"
"It's a song I'm writing. It's called Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You."
"Cool can you sing the first few lyrics?"
"Sure!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Micah's POV:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(*plays the first few lyrics*)
"Micah?"
"Hello Father!"
"What's that song called?"
"It's called Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You!"
"Can you play that at our next assembly?"
"I sure can!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Mo? will you play the backup percussion for my new song at the assembly?"
"Yes! I will! I have heard it! It's amazing."
"Hey Freddie? Will you play piano for my new song at the assembly?"
"Yes of course I will! Nobody has heard it except Whitey, Mo, Father Flanagan and I.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(*at the next assembly*)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Since we are almost finished with today's assembly, we have a new song that I would like to introduce to you all!" Father Flanagan announced.
"It is called Can't Take My Eyes Off Of You by our very own Micah Roberts!" Father Flanagan added on.
(remember it is really by Boys Town Gang!)
I was very nervous for this assembly, as I have never played any form of music in front of a crowd....
I poured my heart and soul into this song.
The curtains opened, and the whole crowd was watching me.
I started to hit the first few notes....
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
You'd be like heaven to touch
Oh, I wanna hold you so much
(*everyone started tapping their feet*)
At long last, love has arrived
And I thank God I'm alive
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you
Pardon the way that I stare
There's nothin' else to compare
The thought of you leaves me weak
There are no words left to speak
But if you feel like I feel
Oh, then let me know that it's real
You're just too good to be true
Can't take my eyes off of you.....
When I played that beat, everyone got up and started dancing.
This means my song is a hit! Everyone loves it!
I love you baby, and if it's quite alright
I need you baby, to warm the lonely night
I love you baby
Trust in me when I say
Oh, pretty baby, don't bring me down, I pray
Oh, pretty baby, now that I've found you, stay
And let me love you, baby
Let me love you!
Everybody danced for the rest of the song! I am super proud of myself for writing a song that everyone loves. I wonder what will happen now? After all this is a song from the soul!
