Room 316; Friday Before the Concert [ 11/05 ].
Alexander was getting ready to go to the concert and found himself in a terribly thoughtful mood. He tried to distract himself, but he was finding it entirely futile. No matter what he did or what he looked at, he found that all he could think of was Cassima. How could he be wasting his time, going to concerts and clubs and things like that, when he could be searching for her? Was she still out there? Would she be waiting for him?
They were such tormenting thoughts that he hadn't even noticed that he'd managed to find a guitar and started to strum it. It was only a matter of time before the words came out.
"Hey there Cassima
What's it like in the Green Isles?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl, tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
The stars can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true
Hey there Cassima
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right there if you get lonely
Give this song another listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice, it's my disguise
I'm by your side
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me
Hey there Cassima
I know times are getting hard
But just believe me, girl
Someday I'll be traveling lands both near and far
We'll have it good
We'll have the life we knew we would
My word is good
Hey there Cassima
I've got so much left to say
If every simple song I wrote to you
Would take your breath away
I'd write it all
Even more in love with me you'd fall
We'd have it all
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
A thousand miles seems pretty far
But they've got planes and trains and cars
I'd walk to you if I had no other way
Our friends would all make fun of us
and we'll just laugh along because we know
That none of them have felt this way
Cassima I can promise you
That by the time we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame
Hey there Cassima
You be good and don't you miss me
Two more years and I'll be done with school
And I'll be making history like I do
You'll know it's all because of you
We can do whatever we want to
Hey there Cassima here's to you
This ones for you
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me "
And, when he finished, he didn't think anything of the randomly breaking out into song. He just set the guitar aside with a sigh and turned his eyes out the window toward the stars.
