I knew you were gonna be there

Chapter 43

Kerrie arranged for a press release stating that the story that was circulating was in fact pure fabrication. I wanted to speak but Kerrie and Caroline said it was be far better if it came in a written statement rather than me saying just incase emotions got in the way. Well can you blame me some psycho basically tried to split up my family.
I was playing the rescheduled South Carolina gig tonight which means we will have to travel through the night to our next venue in Virginia. Caroline and Bo are going to stay with me on tour until we get some additional security.
"Baby, I have been working on a little song, it's about the night of mamas birthday. When I knew you where going to be there, do you mind if I play it for you" I said as I reached for my guitar.
"I would love to baby" she said laying Bo down on the travel cot.
I started to strum and then I began to sing
"I'm gonna put on my new shirt
Shine up these old boots
Take a deep breath
Try to keep my cool
I know you're gonna be there
I'm gonna have a couple drinks, just to knock off the edge
Not too much, don't wanna make a fool of myself
I know you're gonna be there, I know you're gonna be there

And I'm gonna bring somebody I barely even know
And when you turn my way, I'm gonna pull her in close
And the crazy thing about it is I ain't into her at all
I just wanna see if you still care
I know you're gonna be there

You love the band that's playing, you wouldn't miss them for the world
All our friends are coming out and if I know one thing, girl,
I know you're gonna be there
Gonna walk right by that table where you always like to sit
And when I run into you, it's gonna be an accident
I know you're gonna be there

I'm gonna act like it ain't nothing, but another Friday night
And you're just some old friend and I'm doing just fine
Like I'm only going out to shake off another week
Maybe see the boys and catch a buzz somewhere
But I know you're gonna be there

And I'm gonna bring somebody I barely even know
And when you turn my way, I'm gonna pull her in real close
And the crazy thing about it is I ain't into her at all
I just wanna see if you still care
I know you're gonna be there, I know you're gonna be there

I'm gonna put on my new shirt
Shine up these old boots
Truth is when I see yah, I don't know what I'll do"
I smiled when I finished
"Baby that was brilliant, only one thing you came alone" she said laughing
"Yeah but I knew I was going to be honing home eventually with you" I said leaning over and kissing her
"Mmmm quite the optimist Mr Bryan"
"Gotta be baby"
