*American Gothic*
I found myself dreaming
In silver and gold
Like a scene from a movie
That every broken heart knows
We were walking on moonlight
And you pulled me close
Split second and you disappeared
And then I was all alone
Woke up in tears
With you by my side
Breath of relief
And I realized
No, we're not promised tomorrow
So I'm gonna love you
Like I'm gonna lose you
She and Elijah stood in front of each other at the Mikaelson place in Mystic Falls. He'd just told her that he was leaving town.
He rested a hand on the side of her face and she pleaded for him to stay, saying, "It's our turn, Elijah. Please."
"Katerina." For a moment, he looked at her. Then he kissed her on the forehead. "Goodbye, Katerina." Then he was gone.
I'm gonna hold you
Like I'm saying goodbye
Wherever we're standing
I won't take you for granted
'Cause we'll never know when
When we'll run out of time
So I'm gonna love
Like I'm gonna lose you
So I'm gonna love you
Like I'm gonna lose you
It was a dismal night, as she stood in front of him in Pennsylvania.
"What do you want?" he questioned.
"To tell you that you're right. I've spent so much time running and lying just to survive, I—I'm starting to believe my own lies. I don't even remember who I was when we first met. And I want to find out."
"How do I know this isn't another lie? Katherine Pierce deceiving yet another man?"
"Because I meant what I said about my feelings for you. And I'd like to think that you feel something for me, too."
In the blink of an eye
Just a whisper of smoke
You could lose everything
The truth is you never know
So I'll kiss you longer baby
Any chance that I get
And I'll make the most out of the minutes
And love with no regrets
