I was driving to Riley's old house. I knew she would be there. My guitar was in the back seat of the van. I wanted to prove that I was sorry. And, there was only one way to do that.
Riley
I was sitting on the bay window. I could see the people walking around New York. There were couples, friends, and families. The more I looked the more I missed Lucas. Then, there was knock on the window. I turned to open it, thinking it was Maya or Farkle. Instead it was Lucas with a guitar in his hands.

"Lucas! What are you doing here?" I asked.

He sighed, "I came here to apologize. And I could only think of one way to do it so it meant something. Through song."

I furrowed my eyebrows, but he started singing, "Sing along. You know it."

(I suggest playing the video and reading the words at the same time.)

I drew a broken heart
Right on your window pane
Waited for your reply
Here in the pouring rain

Just breathe against the glass
Leave me some kind of sign
I know the hurt won't pass, yeah

Just tell me it's not the end of the line
Just tell me it's not the end of the line

I never meant to break your heart
Now I won't let this plane go down
I never meant to make you cry
I'll do what it takes to make this fly, oh

You gotta hold on
Hold on to what you're feeling
That feeling is the best thing
The best thing, alright

I'm gonna place my bet on us

I know this love is heading in the same direction
That's up

You drew a question mark
But you know what I want
I wanna turn the clock, yeah
Right back to where it was

So let's build a bridge, yeah
From your side to mine
I'll be the one to cross over
Just tell me it's not the end of the line
Just tell me it's not the end of the line

I never meant to break your heart
Now I won't let this plane go down
I never meant to make you cry
I'll do what it takes to make this fly, oh

You gotta hold on
Hold on to what you're feeling
That feeling is the best thing
The best thing, alright

I'm gonna place my bet on us

I know this love is heading in the same direction
That's up

Girl, I know we could climb back to where we were then
Feel it here in my heart
Put my heart in your hand

Well, I hope and I pray that you do understand

If you did, all you have to say is

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm waiting for you

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I never meant to break your heart

Now I won't let this plane go down (let this plane go down)

I never meant to make you cry

I'll do what it takes to make this fly, oh

You gotta hold on
Hold on to what you're feeling
That feeling is the best thing
The best thing, alright

I'm gonna place my bet on us
I know this love is heading in the same direction

That's up
