Now that it was just Natalie at the house with her kids, it was nice and quiet for the most part. She had put in a movie for them in the living room, and she sat in Taylor's music room at the piano. He had taught her to play a little in the past, and she loved it. She had found some sheet music online, and picking out a song she began to play.
I can't sleep, I'm feeling wide awake
Tonight is taking it's time
How much more before the morning breaks
And I can leave it all behind
'Cause every time I try to close my eyes
I only end up seeing memories of you
And it's never enough, I'm waiting
Even though you're gone I can hear your heart
It's calling out my name like a flash in the dark
If this is just a dream
I won't give it back
I'll find a way to make it last
One more minute, wait, wait, wait, don't go
Just one more minute, wait, wait, wait, don't go
I am keeping every word you say
But how much longer can I hold on
Cause whispers echoing until they fade
Remind me that you're already gone
'Cause every time I try to chase your voice
I end up getting lost and running in circles
And it's never enough, I'm waiting
Even though you're gone I can hear your heart
It's calling out my name like a flash in the dark
If this is just a dream
I won't give it back
I'll find a way to make it last
One more minute wait, wait, wait, don't go
Just one more minute, wait, wait, wait, don't go
Wait, wait, wait, don't go
Just one more minute, wait, wait, wait, don't go
Oooh yeah, don't go
Even though you're gone I can hear your heart
It's calling out my name like a flash in the dark
If this is just a dream
I won't give it back
I'll find a way to make it last
One more minute, wait, wait, wait, don't go
Just one more minute, wait, wait, wait, don't go
Penny had walked away from the movie a moment ago, and was standing in the doorway listening to her mom play. When the song was over, she clapped happily. " That was awesome, mom."
Natalie jumped to see her standing there. " Why aren't you watching the movie, hon?"
" Because I would rather spend time with you. I've seen it too many times anyway." She stepped further into the room, and smiled. " Is that okay, mom?"
