❝People will misinterpret you and what you do. They might even call you names. So get comfortable with being misunderstood, disparaged, or ignored. The trick is to be too busy doing your work to care.❞

From the way you smile to the way you look
You capture me unlike no other
From the first hello, yeah, that's all it took
And suddenly we had each other

And I won't leave you
Always be true
One plus one, two for life
Over and over again...

Our hands were playing with the strings of our guitars as Ruhaan started singing the song we wrote after a week of struggling. We were finally able to create something and today, we have to play it in front of the most important people on the label. The heads.

He sang ahead as we effortlessly kept playing our guitars. I watched the people around us. As of now, they look fine.

So, don't ever think I need more
I've got the one to live for
No one else will do, and I'm telling you
Just put your heart in my hands
Promise it won't get broken
We'll never forget this moment
Yeah, we'll stay brand-new 'cause I'll love you
Over and over again
Over and over again

I was nervous now. The music kept going. This was my turn. I waited for the music to come to a certain point and began my part once it was time. I closed my eyes and started singing.

From the heat of night to the break of day
I'll keep you safe and hold you forever
And the sparks will fly, they will never fade
'Cause every day gets better and betterAnd I won't leave you
Always be true
One plus one, two for life
Over and over again

I looked at him. He smiled at me and gave a nod as he started singing his part. I smiled. I was enjoying this process with him more than I imagined at the start. He is one amazing partner and singer. I would love to do more collaborations with him.

So, don't ever think I need more
I've got the one to live for
No one else will do, yeah, I'm telling you
Just put your heart in my hands

We sang together the next part while watching each other. Smiles rested on both of our lips as our hands moved on the guitar strings.

I promise it won't get broken
We'll never forget this moment
Yeah, we'll stay brand-new 'cause I'll love you
Over and over again
Over and over again

We stopped momentarily and let the music flow before singing the next part in sync again.

Girl, when I'm with you I lose track of time
When I'm without you you're stuck on my mind
Be all you need till the day that I die
I'll love you
Over and over again

So, don't ever think I need more
I've got the one to live for
No-one else will do, yeah, I'm telling you
Just put your heart in my hands
Promise it won't get broken
We'll never forget this moment
Yeah, we'll stay brand-new 'cause I love youOver and over againYeah, over and over againOver and over again
