I heard that you're settled down
That you found a girl
And you're married now
I heard that your dreams came true
Guess she gave you things
I didn't give to you
Old friend why are you so shy
Ain't like you to hold back
Or hide from the light

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited but
I couldn't stay away I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over

Never mind I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you two
Don't forget me I beg I'll remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, yeah

As it was going along the loud hustle and bustle was dying down and everyone seemed to stop and watch...it was quite surreal as in the few open mic nights I had been working at this never happened.
*******
You know how the time flies
Only yesterday was the time of our lives
We were born and raised
In a summer haze
Bound by the surprise of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited but
I couldn't stay away I couldn't fight it
I had hoped you'd see my face
And that you'd be reminded that for me it isn't over

Never mind I find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you two
Don't forget me I beg I'll remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead

Nothing compares
No worries or cares
Regrets and mistakes they're memories made
Who would have known how bitter-sweet this would taste

Never mind I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you
Don't forget me I beg I'll remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead

Never mind how I'll find someone like you
I wish nothing but the best for you two
Don't forget me I beg I'll remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love but sometimes it hurts instead, yeah

When the song was finished there was silence...and in that short space of time I was terrified...was I out of tune????....but then the place just seemed to explode with a roar of applause and cheers. I bowed gracefully and thanked everyone before putting the mic back on the stand. I had people patting me on the back and shaking my hand as I took my place behind the bar. Blake came running over to me and hugged me like he hadn't seen me for years "girl you brought the house down" he shouted through the noise.
I chuckled and wafted my hand in modesty.
Then Rick showed up behind Blake.
"Lindsey can I see you in my office"
I looked slightly confused and then nodded slowly as I followed him through to the back of the bar to where the office was.
When he walked into his office I noticed there someone already in there. My eyes widened.
"Lindsey this guy wants to talk to you" Rick smiled knowingly
The man stood up and outstretched his hand
"Hi Lindsey....I'm Ryan Murphy"
