Chapter 10: Beach, Brad, Brighton

Start from the beginning
                                    

Saw you walk inside a bar
He said something to make you laugh
I saw that both your smiles were twice as wide as ours
Yeah you look happier, you do

Ain't nobody hurt you like I hurt you
But ain't nobody love you like I do
Promise that I will not take it personal baby
If you're moving on with someone new

Cause baby you look happier, you do
My friends told me one day I'll feel it too
And until then I'll smile to hide the truth
But I know I was happier with you

Sat in the corner of the room
Everything's reminding me of you
Nursing an empty bottle and telling myself you're happier
Aren't you?

Ain't nobody hurt you like I hurt you
But ain't nobody need you like I do
I know that there's others that deserve you
But my darling I am still in love with you

But I guess you look happier, you do
My friends told me one day I'll feel it too
I could try to smile to hide the truth
But I know I was happier with you

Baby you look happier, you do
I knew one day you'd fall for someone new
But if he breaks your heart like lovers do
Just know that I'll be waiting here for you

I closed my notebook to give myself a break from writing song lyrics for a while and looked over at Brad to see he was already looking at me, I smiled a little at him. "What's wrong?" I asked and he smiled in return. "Nothing, you just look cute when you are thinking." Brad said and I looked down at the sand below us and watched my legs dangle over the side as he playfully nudged me in the shoulder. "Have you written anything else?" I asked and he nodded. "Can I see it?" I asked. "Yeah, I think I'm pretty much done." Brad said as he passed me his notebook.

My Place
Should've stayed another day
Inside my head, an empty space
Tried every way to clear my brain
It's an attitude I can't escape

'Cause for a while it goes when I breathe in
Stays for a minute disappears when you touch my skin, oh
I don't wanna go

Let's go back to my place
Look at that face, I don't ever wanna let you down
It's love by mistakes and heartbreaks
I never wanna see you frown
It's not so far away, who cares if they say?
We were stuck in a little town
I can tell by the look, that's written on your face
Let's go back to my place

Coffee stains, on my pillowcase
And the way you smile, when the neighbors complain
Why'd you play your cards close to your chest
Wasting time when we could waste our breath
Speaking 'bout how we'd change the world from my bedroom

'Cause for a while it comes when I breathe in
Stays for a minute disappears when you touch my skin, oh
Baby say you're home

Let's go back to my place
Look at that face, I don't ever wanna let you down
It's love by mistakes and heartbreaks
I never wanna see you frown
It's not so far away, who cares if they say?
We were stuck in a little town
I can tell by the look, it's written on your face
Let's go back to my place

Rollercoasters, baby take a ride
Looking for another a chance to change your mind
We don't have to go too far tonight
Just back to my place
Look at that face, I don't ever wanna let you down
It's love by mistakes and heartbreaks
But baby where we headed now?
