Chapter 8 ~ Silver Lining (Crazy Bout You)

Start from the beginning
                                    

We were 17 and crazy, running wild, wild

Can't remember what song he was playing when we walked in

The night we snuck into a yacht club party

Pretending to be a duchess and a prince

And I said, "Oh my, what a marvelous tune"

It was the best night, never would forget how we moved.

The whole place was dressed to the nines,

And we were dancing, dancing

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

He said, "Look at you, worrying so much about things you can't change

You'll spend your whole life singing the blues if you keep thinking that way"

He was trying to skip rocks on the ocean, saying to me,

"Don't you see the starlight, starlight?

Don't you dream impossible things?"

Like "Oh my, what a marvelous tune"

It was the best night, never would forget how we moved

The whole place was dressed to the nines,

And we were dancing, dancing

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

Ooh ooh he's talking crazy

Ooh ooh dancing with me

Ooh ooh we could get married

Have ten kids and teach them how to dream

Oh my, what a marvelous tune

It was the best night, never would forget how we moved

The whole place was dressed to the nines,

And we were dancing, dancing

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

Like we're made of starlight, starlight

Like we dream impossible dreams

Like starlight, starlight

Like we dream impossible dreams

Don't you see the starlight, starlight?

Don't you dream impossible things?

The crowd cheers for her loudly as she bows with her signature smile and then walks off the stage and into Jake's arms.

"You did amazing, babe." Jake says.

"Thanks Jake." Marley says and kisses Jake.

"I'm up next." Jake says, letting go of her slowly.

"Break a leg." Marley says.

Jake walks out with a microphone and puts it on a microphone stand.

"I'm Jake Puckerman and I'll be singing Viva La Vida by Coldplay." Jake says into the microphone. The band begin.
