Can We Fall One More Time? (Sequel To Gotta Be You)

-73-

I ran backstage to get changed out of the velvet jumpsuit that I wore quite a bit for my performances. 

Colton and I were about to go back out for one more song, to perform the duet. I needed to change though, because the heat from the lights was no longer working with this piece of clothing.

This might have been the quickest I've ever changed, because I was back out in less than five minutes, out of breath "That is better" 

That crowd laughed 

"These lights are just so damn hot" I smiled "Do you know how often I wear that jumper? It's a big deal that you guys are seeing me out of it"

Colton laughed as he sat at the piano.

I grinned "We're matching!"

He stood and walked over to me "Somebody take a picture of us. Oh my god, look at that, look at that"

A flash went off

"There you go" he said, going back to the keyboard "That is an accident right there. And it's funny, because you know that jumper that she had on, with the velvet? I actually had that on right before I came out"

I laughed 

"It's just like a crazy thing"

I looked at him "Actually, that's his wardrobe, I just borrowed for my performances"

He smiled at me "That's how we are; we coordinate" he turned to the crowd "But anyway, this is our new duet; it actually just became a duet last night, so I hope it's not shit"

The crowd laughed, while Colton started playing the piano

You said, "Don't wait up"
But I can't help myself
You swear, "Just friends"
But I know better than that

So baby when you leave this place
I don't wanna hear your name
Promise when you walk away
You're never coming back again

You left me nothing nothing nothing
Nothing nothing nothing at all
You left me nothing nothing nothing
Nothing nothing nothing at all

Your heart, too cold
So you don't ever feel
My words on deaf ears
No, you will never hear

So baby when you leave this place
I don't wanna hear your name
Promise when you walk away
You're never coming back again

You left me nothing nothing nothing
Nothing nothing nothing at all
You left me nothing nothing nothing
Nothing nothing nothing at all

Don't hold me too tightly 'cause I'll be reminded of why I wanted you here
And the last thing I need is for you to believe that there's anything left that can change how I feel

I wish there was any other way
I'm sure there's no chance you'll ever change

You left me nothing nothing nothing
Nothing nothing nothing at all
You left me nothing nothing nothing
Nothing nothing nothing at all
