Page 52 of Presuming You

Said you're running red lights

At 85 and getting closer

A kiss at the door, ended up on the floor

Ain't too sure what hurts more

That you didn't or that I dreamed you did…

He stopped, and I shifted just a little so I could look at him properly.

“Why’d you stop?” I asked.

Gallan grinned. “Because you didn’t join me,” he answered easily.

I touched the fingers of my right hand to his jaw before smiling. “I didn’t know you wanted me to.”

His expression held profound emotions as he continued to look at me. “I’ll always want you to join in, baby; there’s no question in that.”

Be still, my chubby heart.

I leaned in and placed a soft kiss on his lips. “Okay.”

He winked. “Okay.” He then picked the beat up from where he’d left off, and with smiles on our faces, we began singing together.

Yeah we said everything we didn't say

I ain't saying no word at all

I tried like hell to fall back asleep

Just to see if maybe we

Could pick back up where we left off

When you called me said you want me

Told me you were coming over

Said you're running red lights

At 85 and getting closer

A kiss at the door, ended up on the floor

Ain't too sure what hurts more

That you didn't or that I dreamed you did oh

Is it worse that you're so gone

That I don't even cross your mind

Or that I'll be dreaming that you're coming back again tonight

When you called me said you want me

Told me you were coming over
