The New Girl in Town

Golden Slumbers

It's been a few days since John left for Yoko.

I sat there on the couch, watching the television.

This just in, Legendary John Lennon marries local artist Yoko Ono.

Tears slowly started falling from my eyes, I turned off the TV.

 I did this.

I haven't been out, I haven't called anyone, though Paul and George keep calling me.

When I see John on TV, he doesn't look happy, he doesn't look in love.

But I know it's for the best of that child.

There was a knock on my door, Don't answer it.

"Lily?" I heard Paul's voice, Just leave me..

"I'm coming in, I know you're in there!" He barged down the door.

I didn't even blink once.

"Lily?" I heard Paul's footsteps coming closer towards the living room.

He stopped once he found me, he sighed, "Lily.."

I looked up at him, a red rose was in his hands.

Just like the first date..

Tears started falling down my face.

I shook my head, "No, Paul... Just leave" I whispered.

Paul came closer to me, sitting beside me, he held me.

I sobbed even more, "J-J-John used to h-h-hold me.."

"Shh... You know John never wanted to do this, he's changed Lily. Since he left, he not only left you, but left us.." Paul stroked my hair gently.

"I-I-I know that, P-P-P-Paul.. but, he wanted to leave the band anyway... I told him to leave me.."

"Why would you do that, love?" Paul looked at me.

"Because, John didn't want to repeat history if him and I even had kids.. I told him to go..I.... I'm broken" I cried on his shirt, causing it to become very wet.

"Sorry about your shirt, Paul.." I mumbled.

"It's fine, Lily.. I'm here for you. So would George, but his marriage isn't really going so well right now"

I didn't say anything, I just sat there in his arms... Crying.

Paul smirked, "Maybe we should get married, we'll show him."

I softly chuckled, "As if, Paul.."

He chuckled.

"Let me play you a song I wrote, just for you" He slowly got up, walking towards my grand piano.

I grabbed a blanket, as I started to lay down on the couch.

Paul sang softly.

Once there was a way to get back homeward

Once there was a way to get back home

Sleep pretty darling do not cry

And I will sing a lullaby

Golden slumbers fill your eyes

Smiles awake you when you rise

Sleep pretty darling do not cry

And I will sing a lullaby

Once there was a way to get back homeward

Once there was a way to get back home

Sleep pretty darling do not cry

And I will sing a lullaby....

Paul slowly turned around at me, I smiled at him.

"Thank you" I whispered.

He got up, walking towards me.

He planted a kiss on my forehead, "Anything for you, Lily.."

"Anything" He whispered.

Anything
