Who: Mercedes Jones and Samwise Gamgee (AKA Sam Evans) AND OPEN.
Where: William McKinley High School Auditorium
When: Friday, fifth period.
What: Mercedes needs to clear her mind.
Warnings: None.
Mercedes had decided to skip fifth period. Who needed home economics, anyway? Mercedes knew that she could cook if she put her mind to it. But who needed to learn how to darn socks, or make a pillow? Anything she owned that needed repairing, she could always take to a dry cleaners or something and have them fix it for her. Which was why she was currently in the school auditiorium, seated at the piano that happened to be onstage. While she should be practicing for her audition for the role of Maria, she found that she couldn't focus. After she told Kurt that she was actually from 2011 and not 1956, she found that she couldn't focus on much.
Deciding that singing might actually take her mind off things, she started playing a song on the piano, one that she had heard on the radio once or twice years back. Well, years back from 2011. When she was younger.
There's a thousand words that I could say
To make you come home
Oh, seems so long ago you walked away
Left me alone
I remember what you said to me
You were acting so strange
and maybe I was too blind to see
That you needed a change
Was it something I said
To make you turn away?
To make you walk out and leave me cold
If I could just find a way
To make it so that you were right here
But right now..
I've been sitting here
Can't get you off my mind
I've tried my best to be a man and be strong
I've drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
But the truth remains..
You're gone..
You're gone..
Baby you're gone
Girl you're gone, baby girl, you're gone..
You're gone..
You're...
I don't wanna make excuses, baby
Won't change the fact that you're gone
But if there's something that I could do
Won't you please let me know?
The time is passing so slowly now
Guess that's my life without you
and maybe I could change my every day
But baby I don't want to
So I'll just hang around
and find some things to do
To take my mind off missing you
and I know in my heart
You can't say that you don't love me too
Please say you do
Yeah....
I've been sitting here
Can't get you off my mind
I've tried my best to be a man and be strong
I Drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
But the truth remains
You're gone..
You're gone..
You're gone
You're gone...you're gone.. you're....
Gone
Oh...
Oh, what will I do
If I can't be with you
Tell me where will I turn to
Baby where will I be
Now that we are apart
Am I still in your heart?
Baby why don't you see?
That I need you here with me
Oh...
I've been sitting here
Can't get you off my mind
I've tried my best to be a man and be strong
I've drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
But the truth remains
Been sitting here
Can't get you off my mind
I've tried my best to be a man and be strong
I drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
But the truth remains
You're gone..
You're gone..
You're gone
You're gone
Gone
You're gone..
But the truth remains
You're....
