Tyler's Pov

"Long were the nights
When my days once revolve around you
Counting my footsteps
Praying the floor won't fall through, again
And my mother accused me if losing my mind
But I swore I was fine"

Kumakanta ang banda dito sa restaurant. Iba pala dito. Banda. Hindi musicians. Napatungin ako sa kumakanta. Ang ganda niya. Parang nakita ko na siya dati. I pushed the thought away.

"You paint me a blue sky
And go back and turn it to rain
And I live in your chess game
But you change the rules everyday
Wonderin' which version of you I might get on the phone, tonight
Well I stopped picking up and this song is to let you know why"

Inurong ko ang upuan para sa kanya.

"Thanks." Ngumiti siya. Naku.

"You're wwlcome my beautiful lady," umupi na rin ako. A waiter came and took our order.

"Good evening, what is your order ma'am and sir?" Ibinagay namin ang order namin.

"Dear John, I see it all now that you're gone
Don't you think I was too young to be messed with
The girl in the dress
Cried the whole way home, I shoud have known"

"Okay ba 'tong resto na pinagdalhan ko sayo?"

"Yeah. It's nice." Dumating na ang order namin.

"Well maybe it's me and my blind optimism to blame
Or maybe it's you and your sick need to give love then take it away

And you'll add my name to your long lists of traitors who don't understand
And I'll look back in regret how I ignored
When they said
'Run as fast as you can.'"
