New York State of Mind (A Ryder Lynn Love Story)

Chapter 9 ~ Lego House

I'm out of touch, I'm out of love

I'll pick you up when you're getting down

And out of all these things I've done I will love you better now

I'm out of sight, I'm out of mind

I'll do it all for you in time

And out of all these things I've done I think I love you better now

I'm out of touch, I'm out of love

I'll pick you up when you're getting down

And out of all these things I've done I will love you better now 

The crowd cheer for Casey as he leaves the stage with a smile.

"That was good, Casey." Ryley says.

"Thanks." Casey says, smiling and walks away.

"He's sociable." Marley says, sarcastically.

"He's probably trying to get on with his life." Ryder says.

"Are you up next, Ryd?" Ryley asks Ryder.

"Yup. I'm the last person to perform." Ryder says.

"Break a leg." Ryley says, giving Ryder a kiss on his cheek.

Ryder smiles and walks onto the stage.

"I'm Ryder Lynn and the song I will be singing is dedicated to the love of my life, Ryley Bridges. This was the first proper song I sung to her back in high school." Ryder says. He looks at Ryley and smiles at her. The band start to play the song and Ryley feels so happy.

Beauty queen of only eighteen

She had some trouble with herself

He was always there to help her

She always belonged to someone else

Ryley gets flashbacks of when Ryder sung this to her during the Camp Rock auditions during Junior year. When they're eye contact was connected during the whole song.

I drove for miles and miles and wound up at your door

I've had you so many times but somehow I want more

I don't mind spending every day

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

 Tap on my window, knock on my door

I want to make you feel beautiful

I know I tend to get so insecure

It doesn't matter anymore

It's not always rainbows and butterflies

It's compromise that moves us along, yeah

My heart is full and my door's always open

You come anytime you want, yeah.

Ryder looks over at Ryley for the whole of this chorus. Ryley just wants to cry with joy.

I don't mind spending every day

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

Shit, she is crying now. 'Stop crying, Ryley' She thinks.

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

I know where you hide alone in your car

Know all of the things that make you who you are

I know that goodbye means nothing at all

Comes back and begs me to catch her every time she falls

Yeah

Tap on my window knock on my door

I want to make you feel beautiful

I don't mind spending every day

Out on your corner in the pouring rain, oh.

Look for the girl with the broken smile

Ask her if she wants to stay awhile

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

And she will be loved

[in the background:]

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

Yeah, yeah.

[softly:]

I don't mind spending every day

Out on your corner in the pouring rain

Please don't try so hard to say goodbye

Ryley claps the loudest and she is wiping away her tears of joy. She runs onto the stage and kisses Ryder with all her love.

"I love you so much." Ryley says against his lips.

"I love you so much too." Ryder says, smiling.
