As always, song lyrics denoted by ~.
~Sweet melodies bring bitter memories
Sing in my ear and drown out my heart
Who will it be to silence the storms
Who will it be to bring on the organs, the violins, the charms~
He loves me! Sugar loves me!
He told me so, that's how I know!
Okay, I'm being goofy, but what do you expect?
SUGAR LOVES ME!!
He came over and said he wanted to talk to me.
I didn't know what he wanted to talk about, and I was kinda scared.
He's all I got left now since Matty and Jeff lefted me.
I always get kinda nervous when people say "we need to talk".
Ain't nothin' good ever come outta that phrase.
'Cept this time.
He told me that he didn't wanna push anything and he didn't want me thinkin' he was tryin' to take advantage of me cuz I was vulnerable right now.
Then he told me that I was his bestest friend.
And that he was always gonna be here for me.
That's when I got scared.
~Hold out your arms, the streets are on fire
Don't waste no time, yes it's called desire
Getting quite sleepy but you held the door
The light from your eyes asks me for more~
I guess he kinda figured it out cuz he took my hands and made me look him in the eye before he said anything else.
That's when I saw that he was nervous too.
What the hell is he gonna say to me?
What in the world could make him get all jumpy like that?
I'm the bouncy one, not him.
Then he told me.
He loves me.
He's loved me for a long time.
And he never said nothin', never gave me any clue.
Cuz he loved Matt and Jeff too.
Not as much as he loves me, cuz he's IN love with me.
Wow.
That sounds kinda weird, knockin' around in my head like that.
Sugar loves me.
~Rolling down hills and climbing up trees
Means something to you when you're locked
In New York City
Come find me there if I'm anywhere
I will be in the garden beneath the tree line
Make a beeline~
He said a buncha other stuff too.
Ya know, stuff like he wants to take care a me.
That he wants to LOOOOOOOOOVE me.
That made me giggle.
I told him it was okay to say fuck, cuz that's what he really meant.
But Sugar don't say things like that out loud. He's our little saint, ya know.
Saint Sugar.
It ain't like I never thought about him like that before, cuz I have.
One time, when me and Jeff had broken up and before me and Matt got together, I had this crush on him.
But I never said nothin', cuz I thought Sugar thought a me like a kid brother or somethin'.
He was always lookin' out for me, makin' sure nobody hurt me or nothin'.
I just thought he was bein' nice to me.
I didn't know he was doin' it cuz he loved me.
I never knew at all.
I was too wrapped up in bein' with Matt or Jeff or both that I let Sugar just sail on by.
They're gone now, but he's still here.
Right here.
With me.
In love.
Ain't it cool?
~Hold out your arms, the streets are on fire
Don't waste no time, yes, it's called desire
Getting quite sleepy but you held the door
The light from your eyes asks me for more~
He's says we're gonna take things slow.
We ain't gonna rush into anything.
Heh.
What he means is he ain't gonna rush into ME!
That's what he thinks, anyways.
See, he went to the store to get stuff so he can make dinner for me.
He said he was gonna treat me like the angel that I is.
We're gonna have a nice, romantic dinner then cuddle up on the couch and talk.
I asked him if it was okay for us to kiss and stuff and he said we could do whatever I wanted to.
Nobody ever told me that before.
Nobody ever loved me like that before.
Nobody ever made me feel safe like he does.
Nobody ever made me feel special like that.
The Hurricane.Saint Sugar.Gregory Shane Helms..
Is.
In love.
WITH ME!!!
