IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY LISTENED TO THIS SONG THEN YOU SHOULD GO CHECK IT OUT, YOUR GONNA LIKE IT TRUST ME ITS REALLY BEAUTIFUL.

Note: I didn't use all of the lyrics because some of them just didn't fit right with the story; also it's switched around a bit.

Note: Lyrics - (are in parenthesis)

("I heard that you're settled down, that you found a girl and your married now. I heard that your dreams came true, guess she gave you things I didn't give to you.")

As I'm sitting here watching you from afar I can't help but think, "Why that couldn't have been me". Why that couldn't have been my hair that you brush aside before you sweetly and ever so lightly kiss my neck. Why that isn't my left hand that shines when the sunlight hits that diamond encrusted ring. Why that couldn't have been my baby lying in the stroller as she watches her mother and father enjoy their time together, laughing and giggling when her daddy tickles her. Children were never on my "what to do before I die list", but as I sit here all alone outside "our" favorite café I think, would it have made you stay, would it have made you love me more?

(I"I hate to turn up out of the blue, uninvited, but I couldn't stay away, I couldn't fight it. I had hoped you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded that for me, it isn't over.")

She says something to you and throws you a smile and blows you a kiss as she stands and walks into the café. I think maybe this is my chance to talk to you. When I finally walk up to you I immediately get weak to my knees when I smell your cologne, god how I love the way you smell. You look up at me with those gorgeous hazel eyes, and I suddenly get so lost in them everything else in the world just fades away. I hear you say my name and it snaps me back into reality. I begin to pour my heart out to you, telling you that I can't live without you, that I haven't been happy with anyone else, and how I want us to start over and be a family. Your shaking your head now and telling me to just walk away and leave you alone, you're telling me that your happy now and you love the way your life is going. Wow, is all I can think, how could I have been so stupid to think that you would just up and leave your wife and daughter? I murmur an apology and quickly run to my car, trying desperately to hold back the tears that are now forming in my eyes.

("You know how the time flies; only yesterday was the time of our lives. We were born and raised in a summer haze, bound by the surprise of our glory days.")

I slam the car door and let the river of tears flow as I rest my head on the steering wheel. My heart is pounding in my ears and my body is shaking as I finally realize that you're gone and I was never going to get you back not now, not ever. I laugh weakly as my mind goes back 20 years ago when we were just small little things, running after each other, you pushing me on the swing, me making you play "tea party" with me and my millions of Barbie's. Even though we were too young to understand, I knew that I loved you in all the sense of the word. A part of me will always love you and hopefully a part of you still feels the same for me.

("Never mind, I'll find someone like you I wish you nothing but the best for you, too Don't forget me, I beg…")

It's all ok, things happen in our lives for a reason maybe it wasn't meant to be maybe you just weren't my Mr. Right. I hope she makes you just as happy as I did. I wipe my face with the sleeve of my shirt and then reach down in my purse searching franticly for my keys, dang I must have left them on the table our something. I run back to the café, thanking my lucky stars that you are gone now. "God could this day get any worse", I think out loud as get on my hands and knees to search for the missing keys. And then that's when I see it, a pair of black dress shoes. I slowly raise my eyes taking in the slim but muscular build of a young man. My vision becomes obstructed by the sunlight and I put my hands over my eyes to shield them, he bends down dangling the keys in front of me and I grab them swiftly, and send him a smile. He says, "Hi, my name is Benjamin, nice to meet you" our eyes meet and once again I'm lost. I laugh softly and think is this guy Mr. Right?
