Say hello to the boy who wants to be your man

I'm not there, but I would be, were my absence not so simply necessary.

This has been hard for her — so hard — but it hasn't been easy for me, either. I want to be there.

Second song. The scene. A couch. Candlelight. Arms draped. Around. Entwined. And this. Song. Not right. Somehow. I think. So tentatively. (Pretend casually.) I say. "The drummer is having way too much fun."

Says she. (Dreamily.) "Yeah. I like it."

Me: "Mmm."
