I never noticed

Then again, I never really cared

I was always honest with you

That got me nowhere

The train was pulling out of the station

I must admit to all those who listen

That a part of me departed that day

 

Someday

I won’t be afraid to be with you

I hope it happens that way

I’m fighting my way back to you

Because that’s the one place I’ll always call home

 

I think I unnerved you

Did I plead too much?

Sometimes I felt I wasn’t deserving

Of your second glance or wanton touch

 

Someday

I won’t be afraid to be with you

I hope it happens that way

I’m fighting my way back to you

Because that’s the one place I’ll always call home

 

Did you ever think

What would happen if I could

Just be with you

From this day through

Wouldn’t that be nice?

Someday we’ll make that sacrifice

Someday

 

            Shelby calls Darci and there is no answer.  They’d left the realization that she was pregnant up in the air.  Shelby thinks it’s stupid for Darci to not have thought of protection.  She’d seen Logan, Shelby’s own brother, knock up an eternal. 

            “Where the hell are you?” growls Shelby, turning the phone off.  Sydney comes out of her room and gives her mother a very odd look.  “What?”

            “You are so pissy lately,” says Sydney, crossing her arms.  “What’s wrong?”

            “I can’t get Darci to pick up her phone.”  Shelby wants to pitch the phone across the room but she resists.  She constantly tells her charges at school to keep their emotions in check, but sometimes it’s easier said than done. 

            “She was meeting up with Abby today; they were going to have lunch.  I guess Dee called her last night, Mom, what’s wrong?”
