@@zeldarogers2391 Ha! That's true, but that does still require you to *control* the crying. (Also not sure whether I'd have had the technical chops three years ago to sing and really cry at the same time) I totally forgot I learned this piece, actually. I believe I did get it to a place where I sang it and did not cry uncontrollably, but I never did end up performing it. I think it was competing for a place in an already too-long recital and got cut.
My favorite version : We met, of all places, in front of Gristides, some freakishly cold winter's day. I had on several unflattering layers of wool. He slipped on the ice with his grocery bags full, So I rescued some Fruit Loops he dropped by the curb and he made some remark that my smile was superb I thought that was sweet and I started to go and he said "Hey, whatcha doing tomorrow?' 'Because I'll be here at the corner of Bleaker and Mercer tomorrow at 7. If you want to meet up, I'll be waiting right here, and in case there are two fellas waiting for you, my name's John." He waved and then he was gone. Needless to say I went back there to meet him mostly to see if he'd show, and there he was out in the cold with his jacket pulled tight. He took me to dinner and kissed me goodnight. The next week we went to this terrible play. And the week after that drank hot chocolate all day. And suddenly, eight or nine months had flown by when he said "Hey, whatcha doing the rest of your life?' 'Because I'll be here right beside you as long as you want me to be. There's no question. There is nothing I've wanted so much in my life. This might sound immature but I'm totally sure you're the one." And we had just begun. We got hitched in September, our favorite month, with a rock band that played in this old synagogue. And we bought an apartment on West 17th street and talked about children and getting a dog. Our first anniversary came in a flash and we promised to take the day off. He had to stop into his office that morning, and so I went walking uptown to this bakery I know. When I heard on the street what I thought was a joke till I noticed the sirens and saw all the smoke. So I'm running back home with this feeling of dread to the voicemail he left with the last words he said. I'm sorry, I don't mean to ruin your evening by bringing up all of this stuff. You're probably wondering why I even called you tonight. Well today something happened that spooked me alright. I discovered his fruit loops still there on the shelf, And I cried, and couldn't get ahold of myself When as sure as I breath I heard John clear as day saying "Hey, you're allowed to move on. It's okay.' 'Because I'll be here even if you decide to get rid of my favorite sweater. Even if you go out on my birthday this year instead of staying at home letting all of life's moments pass by. You don't have to cry.' 'Because I'll be here when you start going back to the places we went to together. When you take off my ring and you let yourself smile. When you meet some handsome and patient and true. When he says that he wants to be married to you. When you call him one night and he meets you downtown. When you finally answer him yes." Yes. Jason, I will marry you. I will give you my heart. It has taken so long, but I'm ready to start. Right now John's whispering 'Congrats' in my ear cause I finally let myself tell you That I will be here.

hello! I know this piano accompaniment was posted a long while ago, but I was wondering if I could gain permission to use it as the backing track for a cover on youtube? I would give full credit and link the video at the end. Let me know x
i have no words this is the best song i have ever heard and i love it. thanks for posting the karaoke online but would you be able to send me the sheet music???
please can you do a piano accompaniment for 'Anyway' by Kerrigan and Lowdermilk for 'Tales from the bad years'? I need to practice for an audition and it would be so helpful if you could!
I hope you are well and staying safe during this crazy time! I'm wondering if I might have your permission to use this accompaniment track for a prerecorded recital that I am participating in for my community college. I also would love to know if we have permission to use this accompaniment for college/university audition tapes. Thank you so much, and I hope you're having a beautiful day!
Wij zagen elkaar voor het eerst bij de supermarkt het vroor dat het kraakte die dag ik zat verpakt heel flatteus In een dikke laag wol. Hij gaat onderuit met zijn tassen bomvol. En ik red nog een rolletje snoep dat ik zag. En hij mompelt nog iets van een prachtige lach. Dat vond ik best lief en ik ging weer op weg. Maar hij zei hé heb je morgen al plannen? Want ik zal er zijn op de straathoek Van bleaker en mercer Om 7:00 uur‘s avonds. Als je afspreekt met mij zal ik hier voor je staan. Voor het geval er soms twee kerels wachten op jou, ik ben John. Hij zwaaide en draaide zich om. Logisch dat ik hem de dag erna opzocht. Checken of hij er wel was. En kijk nou daar stond hij te blauwbekken haast niet te doen. Hij nam me uit eten en kuste me toe. De week daarop naar een toneelstuk cliché. En de week daarna dronken we heel de dag thee. En plotseling waren er maanden voorbij. En hij zei hé heb je plannen voor nu en altijd? Want ik zal er zijn hier vlak naast je zolang je het uithoudt met mij, zonder twijfel. Er is niets in mijn leven wat ik zo graag wil. Ook al klinkt het wat raar, ‘T is voor mij zonneklaar, ik wil jou. En ik? Wat moest ik nou? In september getrouwd, onze lievelings maand synagogen gehuurd en een band bovendien. En we kochten een flat en we praten en praten want moesten we kinderen? Een huisdier misschien? En voor we het wisten al een jaar getrouwd. Dus we namen de hele dag vrij. Hij moest alleen eventjes langs op kantoor nog en dus liep ik door naar zo’n bakkertje Warm en knus, tot ik iets hoorde zeggen wat klonk als een grap. Maar toen zag ik de rook en daarna nog eens zo’n klap. Dus ik rende snel naar huis in mijn keel knijpt dicht dicht, maar de voicemail met zijn allerlaatste bericht. Het spijt me ik wil echt je dag niet bederven door al dat gedoe uit die tijd. Je vraagt je waarschijnlijk al af waarom ik heb gebeld. Maar vandaag sloeg iets raars me compleet uit het veld. Ik zag papier langzaam dwarrelen hoog in de lucht, ik schoot vol, want ik dacht aan die dag jaren terug. En ik zweer je dat John tot mijn sprak daar en fluisterde hé leef toch door lieve schat het is oké. Want ik zal er zijn zelfs wanneer je mijn lievelings trui aan het Leger des Heils geeft. Zelfs wanneer je straks op mijn verjaardag niet thuis bent in plaats van te kniezen want zo lief verlies je steeds weer. Nu geen tranen meer want ik zal er zijn als je teruggaat naar de plekken waar wij samen hebben gelopen. Als je strakjes mijn ring van je vinger afschuift, als je iemand ontmoet knap en eerlijk en trouw. Als hij zegt dat hij heel graag wil trouwen met jou als je afspreekt met hem in een kroeg in de stad als je eindelijk antwoord met ja ja Jason ik trouw met je, hoor je mijn hart sneller slaan, ik heb heel lang gewacht maar nu durf ik het aan. En ik hoor Jon fluisteren liefje wat fijn want ik durf je nu eindelijk te zeggen dat ik er zal zijn.
I don’t understand what happens when he goes into the office? Is it 9/11? And what does it mean “I’m sorry to bring up all this stuff” and “wondering why I even called u tonight” I don’t get it?
Yep.. 9/11. Claire is telling her now boyfriend Jason about the story of her first husband who died in 9/11. Her and Jason had an argument, Jason proposed and she fled - when she saw the storm cloud of papers (that other characters Deb & Warren threw out of a window), it takes her back to that day, and she realises she can move on! And she tells Jason that she will marry him
@@krisrawlinson1 This Is a gorgeous accompaniment! Is the MP3 of this still available? The website link doesn't appear to work and I'd love to purchase it 😊
We met, of all places, in front of Gristides, some freakishly cold winter's day. I had on several unflattering layers of wool. He slipped on the ice with his grocery bags full, So I rescued some Fruit Loops he dropped by the curb and he made some remark that my smile was superb I thought that was sweet and I started to go and he said "Hey, whatcha doing tomorrow?' 'Because I'll be here at the corner of Bleaker and Mercer tomorrow at 7. If you want to meet up, I'll be waiting right here, and in case there are two fellas waiting for you, my name's John." He waved and then he was gone. Needless to say I went back there to meet him mostly to see if he'd show, and there he was out in the cold with his jacket pulled tight. He took me to dinner and kissed me goodnight. The next week we went to this terrible play. And the week after that drank hot chocolate all day. And suddenly, eight or nine months had flown by when he said "Hey, whatcha doing the rest of your life?' 'Because I'll be here right beside you as long as you want me to be. There's no question. There is nothing I've wanted so much in my life. This might sound immature but I'm totally sure you're the one." And we had just begun. We got hitched in September, our favorite month, with a rock band that played in this old synagogue. And we bought an apartment on West 17th street and talked about children and getting a dog. Our first anniversary came in a flash and we promised to take the day off. He had to stop into his office that morning, and so I went walking uptown to this bakery I know.

You're probably wondering why I even called you tonight. Well today something happened that spooked me alright. I saw this storm cloud of papers fall down from the sky, and I thought of that day and I started to cry. When as sure as I breath I heard John clear as day saying "Hey, you're allowed to move on. It's okay.' 'Because I'll be here even if you decide to get rid of my favorite sweater. Even if you go out on my birthday this year instead of staying at home letting all of life's moments pass by. You don't have to cry.' 'Because I'll be here when you start going back to the places we went to together. When you take off my ring and you let yourself smile. When you meet some handsome and patient and true. When he says that he wants to be married to you. When you call him one night and he meets you downtown. When you finally answer him yes." Yes. Jason, I will marry you. I will give you my heart. It has taken so long, but I'm ready to start. Right now John's whispering 'Congrats' in my ear cause I finally let myself tell you That I will be here.

When I heard on the street what I thought was a joke Till I noticed the sirens and saw all the smoke. So I'm running back home with this feeling of dread To the voicemail he left with the last words he said. I'm sorry, I don't mean to ruin your evening by bringing up all of this stuff. You're probably wondering why I even called you tonight. I saw this storm cloud of papers fall down from the sky, And I thought of that day and I started to cry. When as sure as I breath I heard John clear as day saying "Hey, you're allowed to move on. It's okay.' 'Because I'll be here Even if you decide to get rid of my favorite sweater. Even if you go out on my birthday This year instead of staying at home letting all of life's moments pass by. You don't have to cry.' 'Because I'll be here When you start going back to the places we went to together. When you take off my ring and you let yourself smile. When you meet some handsome and patient and true. When he says that he wants to be married to you. When you call him one night and he meets you downtown. When you finally answer him yes." Yes. Jason, I will marry you. I will give you my heart. It has taken so long, but I'm ready to start. Right now John's whispering 'Congrats' in my ear cause I finally let myself tell you That I will be here.
We met, of all places, in front of Gristides, some freakishly cold winter's day I had on several unflattering layers of wool He slipped on the ice with his grocery bags full So I rescued some Fruit Loops he dropped by the curb And he made some remark that my smile was superb I thought that was sweet and I started to go and he said "Hey, whatcha doing tomorrow?' 'Because I'll be here At the corner of Bleaker and Mercer tomorrow at 7 If you want to meet up, I'll be waiting right here, And in case there are two fellas waiting for you, my name's John." He waved and then he was gone Needless to say I went back there to meet him Mostly to see if he'd show, and there he was Out in the cold with his jacket pulled tight He took me to dinner and kissed me goodnight The next week we went to this terrible play And the week after that drank hot chocolate all day And suddenly, eight or nine months had flown by when he said "Hey, whatcha doing the rest of your life?' 'Because I'll be here Right beside you as long as you want me to be There's no question There is nothing I've wanted so much in my life This might sound immature but I'm totally sure you're the one."

![4 Beautiful Soundtracks | Relaxing Piano [10min]](/img/1.gif)
Now that I can practice with the accompaniment, all I have to do is learn how to sing this whole song without crying on stage!
SAME
If I ever sing this in public, that's gonna be my main problem
A feat in it of itself.
I know you posted this comment 3 years ago but crying MAKES the performance. If you learn how to still sing whilst crying then you're flying
@@zeldarogers2391 Ha! That's true, but that does still require you to *control* the crying. (Also not sure whether I'd have had the technical chops three years ago to sing and really cry at the same time)
I totally forgot I learned this piece, actually. I believe I did get it to a place where I sang it and did not cry uncontrollably, but I never did end up performing it. I think it was competing for a place in an already too-long recital and got cut.
I cry everytime I sing this too
My favorite version :
We met, of all places, in front of Gristides, some freakishly cold winter's day.
I had on several unflattering layers of wool.
He slipped on the ice with his grocery bags full,
So I rescued some Fruit Loops he dropped by the curb
and he made some remark that my smile was superb
I thought that was sweet and I started to go and he said
"Hey, whatcha doing tomorrow?'
'Because I'll be here
at the corner of Bleaker and Mercer tomorrow at 7.
If you want to meet up, I'll be waiting right here,
and in case there are two fellas waiting for you, my name's John."
He waved and then he was gone.
Needless to say I went back there to meet him
mostly to see if he'd show, and there he was
out in the cold with his jacket pulled tight.
He took me to dinner and kissed me goodnight.
The next week we went to this terrible play.
And the week after that drank hot chocolate all day.
And suddenly, eight or nine months had flown by when he said
"Hey, whatcha doing the rest of your life?'
'Because I'll be here
right beside you as long as you want me to be.
There's no question.
There is nothing I've wanted so much in my life.
This might sound immature but I'm totally sure you're the one."

You're probably wondering why I even called you tonight.
Well today something happened that spooked me alright.
I discovered his fruit loops still there on the shelf,
And I cried, and couldn't get ahold of myself
When as sure as I breath I heard John clear as day saying
"Hey, you're allowed to move on. It's okay.'
'Because I'll be here
even if you decide to get rid of my favorite sweater.
Even if you go out on my birthday this year instead of staying at home letting all of life's moments pass by.
You don't have to cry.'

till I noticed the sirens and saw all the smoke.
So I'm running back home with this feeling of dread
to the voicemail he left with the last words he said.
I'm sorry, I don't mean to ruin your evening by bringing up all of this stuff.
You're probably wondering why I even called you tonight.
Well today something happened that spooked me alright.
I saw this storm cloud of papers fall down from the sky,
and I thought of that day and I started to cry.
When as sure as I breath I heard John clear as day saying
"Hey, you're allowed to move on. It's okay.'
'Because I'll be here
even if you decide to get rid of my favorite sweater.
Even if you go out on my birthday this year instead of staying at home letting all of life's moments pass by.
You don't have to cry.'
'Because I'll be here
when you start going back to the places we went to together.
When you take off my ring and you let yourself smile.
When you meet some handsome and patient and true.
When he says that he wants to be married to you.
When you call him one night and he meets you downtown.
When you finally answer him yes."
Yes.
Jason, I will marry you.
I will give you my heart.
It has taken so long, but I'm ready to start.
Right now John's whispering 'Congrats' in my ear cause I finally let myself tell you
That I will be here.
LYRICS
We met, of all places, in front of Gristides, some freakishly cold winter's day
I had on several unflattering layers of wool
He slipped on the ice with his grocery bags full
So I rescued some Fruit Loops he dropped by the curb
And he made some remark that my smile was superb
I thought that was sweet and I started to go and he said
"Hey, whatcha doing tomorrow?'
'Because I'll be here
At the corner of Bleaker and Mercer tomorrow at 7
If you want to meet up, I'll be waiting right here,
And in case there are two fellas waiting for you, my name's John."
He waved and then he was gone
Needless to say I went back there to meet him
Mostly to see if he'd show, and there he was
Out in the cold with his jacket pulled tight
He took me to dinner and kissed me goodnight
The next week we went to this terrible play
And the week after that drank hot chocolate all day
And suddenly, eight or nine months had flown by when he said
"Hey, whatcha doing the rest of your life?'
'Because I'll be here
Right beside you as long as you want me to be
There's no question
There is nothing I've wanted so much in my life
This might sound immature but I'm totally sure you're the one."
And we had just begun
We got hitched in September, our favorite month
With a rock band that played in this old synagogue
And we bought an apartment on West 17th street and talked about children and getting a dog
Our first anniversary came in a flash
And we promised to take the day off
He had to stop into his office that morning
And so I went walking uptown to this bakery I know
When I heard on the street what I thought was a joke
Till I noticed the sirens and saw all the smoke

Is it possible you could make an instrumental of Don't wanna be here? Also from Ordinary Days...
hello! I know this piano accompaniment was posted a long while ago, but I was wondering if I could gain permission to use it as the backing track for a cover on youtube? I would give full credit and link the video at the end. Let me know x
This is beautiful! Would I be able to use this for a cover? I'd be sure to credit your work. Thank you for this gorgeous accompaniment!
Can you do I Don't Wanna Be Here from Ordinary Days?
Would absolutely love the mp3 of this if it's still available, Kris. It's the perfect accompaniment for a beautiful song.
i have no words this is the best song i have ever heard and i love it. thanks for posting the karaoke online but would you be able to send me the sheet music???
Beautiful! Does anyone have the sheet music of this song to learn the entries of the voice?
is there anyway you can do an accompaniment to "Calm" from ordinary days? This was sooooo beautiful, thank you so much!
Is there any way you could do "Calm" from Ordinary Days?
Tutorial? Plz
1:04
Yeah could only make it to the start of the second verse before my voice wouldn't let me sing anymore :'(
please can you do a piano accompaniment for 'Anyway' by Kerrigan and Lowdermilk for 'Tales from the bad years'? I need to practice for an audition and it would be so helpful if you could!
Warning: If you're a Danganronpa fan, do not imagine Kaede playing this. You. Will. Cry.
I hope you are well and staying safe during this crazy time!
I'm wondering if I might have your permission to use this accompaniment track for a prerecorded recital that I am participating in for my community college. I also would love to know if we have permission to use this accompaniment for college/university audition tapes.
Thank you so much, and I hope you're having a beautiful day!
Wij zagen elkaar voor het eerst bij de supermarkt het vroor dat het kraakte die dag ik zat verpakt heel flatteus In een dikke laag wol. Hij gaat onderuit met zijn tassen bomvol. En ik red nog een rolletje snoep dat ik zag. En hij mompelt nog iets van een prachtige lach. Dat vond ik best lief en ik ging weer op weg. Maar hij zei hé heb je morgen al plannen?
Want ik zal er zijn op de straathoek Van bleaker en mercer Om 7:00 uur‘s avonds. Als je afspreekt met mij zal ik hier voor je staan. Voor het geval er soms twee kerels wachten op jou, ik ben John. Hij zwaaide en draaide zich om.
Logisch dat ik hem de dag erna opzocht. Checken of hij er wel was. En kijk nou daar stond hij te blauwbekken haast niet te doen. Hij nam me uit eten en kuste me toe. De week daarop naar een toneelstuk cliché. En de week daarna dronken we heel de dag thee. En plotseling waren er maanden voorbij. En hij zei hé heb je plannen voor nu en altijd?
Want ik zal er zijn hier vlak naast je zolang je het uithoudt met mij, zonder twijfel. Er is niets in mijn leven wat ik zo graag wil. Ook al klinkt het wat raar, ‘T is voor mij zonneklaar, ik wil jou.
En ik? Wat moest ik nou?
In september getrouwd, onze lievelings maand synagogen gehuurd en een band bovendien. En we kochten een flat en we praten en praten want moesten we kinderen? Een huisdier misschien? En voor we het wisten al een jaar getrouwd. Dus we namen de hele dag vrij. Hij moest alleen eventjes langs op kantoor nog en dus liep ik door naar zo’n bakkertje Warm en knus, tot ik iets hoorde zeggen wat klonk als een grap. Maar toen zag ik de rook en daarna nog eens zo’n klap. Dus ik rende snel naar huis in mijn keel knijpt dicht dicht, maar de voicemail met zijn allerlaatste bericht.
Het spijt me ik wil echt je dag niet bederven door al dat gedoe uit die tijd. Je vraagt je waarschijnlijk al af waarom ik heb gebeld. Maar vandaag sloeg iets raars me compleet uit het veld. Ik zag papier langzaam dwarrelen hoog in de lucht, ik schoot vol, want ik dacht aan die dag jaren terug. En ik zweer je dat John tot mijn sprak daar en fluisterde hé leef toch door lieve schat het is oké.
Want ik zal er zijn zelfs wanneer je mijn lievelings trui aan het Leger des Heils geeft. Zelfs wanneer je straks op mijn verjaardag niet thuis bent in plaats van te kniezen want zo lief verlies je steeds weer. Nu geen tranen meer
want ik zal er zijn als je teruggaat naar de plekken waar wij samen hebben gelopen. Als je strakjes mijn ring van je vinger afschuift, als je iemand ontmoet knap en eerlijk en trouw. Als hij zegt dat hij heel graag wil trouwen met jou als je afspreekt met hem in een kroeg in de stad als je eindelijk antwoord met ja ja Jason ik trouw met je, hoor je mijn hart sneller slaan, ik heb heel lang gewacht maar nu durf ik het aan. En ik hoor Jon fluisteren liefje wat fijn want ik durf je nu eindelijk te zeggen dat ik er zal zijn.
Thank you so much for this! I must have used it 100 times! I finally recorded it for my channel, if anyone would like to take a look xo
Hi there. Is it possible to get this music track in the key of G?
could you possibly do this for the song I Don't Want to Be Here from the same musical you would be more than a lifesaver
4:04
3:44
2:12
Somehow I feel it’s even more cathartic without the vocals
Tutorial for beginners please???
could you do I Don't Wanna Be Here as well? That'd be amazing
Hey Kris, this is great! Please can I use this to post a response video with me singing? Thanks! Anna :)
IS this the original key of F major?
Where can I get the MP3 for this? The website is password protected
could you please do accompaniment to calm as well!!!!
Do you have any idea where I could find an accompaniment to "Calm"?
Any way you could perhaps email me copies of this sheet music??? Please!
is there any way you could share the score with me?
i am doing this for my musical theater final performance but cant find the sheet music for it anywhere would you be able to send it to me ? x
If you just google "I'll be here" ordinary days on google it pops right up:) that's how I got mine.
I don’t understand what happens when he goes into the office? Is it 9/11? And what does it mean “I’m sorry to bring up all this stuff” and “wondering why I even called u tonight” I don’t get it?
Yep.. 9/11. Claire is telling her now boyfriend Jason about the story of her first husband who died in 9/11. Her and Jason had an argument, Jason proposed and she fled - when she saw the storm cloud of papers (that other characters Deb & Warren threw out of a window), it takes her back to that day, and she realises she can move on! And she tells Jason that she will marry him
or if you're using the fruit loop lyrics, that works also!
@@krisrawlinson1 thanks so much I’ve been wondering this for ages!!
@@krisrawlinson1 This Is a gorgeous accompaniment! Is the MP3 of this still available? The website link doesn't appear to work and I'd love to purchase it 😊
Where can you get the MP3?
Where can I get the MP3?
chords?

About a million

This is lovely.
Also...I hope you don't mind, but I recorded a cover using your accompaniment.
If you'd like to check it out, it's on my channel.
We met, of all places, in front of Gristides, some freakishly cold winter's day.
I had on several unflattering layers of wool.
He slipped on the ice with his grocery bags full,

I thought that was sweet and I started to go and he said

If you want to meet up, I'll be waiting right here,
and in case there are two fellas waiting for you, my name's John."
He waved and then he was gone.
Needless to say I went back there to meet him
mostly to see if he'd show, and there he was
out in the cold with his jacket pulled tight.
He took me to dinner and kissed me goodnight.
The next week we went to this terrible play.
And the week after that drank hot chocolate all day.
And suddenly, eight or nine months had flown by when he said
"Hey, whatcha doing the rest of your life?'
'Because I'll be here
right beside you as long as you want me to be.
There's no question.
There is nothing I've wanted so much in my life.
This might sound immature but I'm totally sure you're the one."

'Because I'll be here
at the corner of Bleaker and Mercer tomorrow at 7.
If you want to meet up, I'll be waiting right here,
and in case there are two fellas waiting for you, my name's John."
He waved and then he was gone.
Needless to say I went back there to meet him
mostly to see if he'd show, and there he was
out in the cold with his jacket pulled tight.
He took me to dinner and kissed me goodnight.
The next week we went to this terrible play.
And the week after that drank hot chocolate all day.
And suddenly, eight or nine months had flown by when he said
"Hey, whatcha doing the rest of your life?'
'Because I'll be here
right beside you as long as you want me to be.
There's no question.
There is nothing I've wanted so much in my life.
This might sound immature but I'm totally sure you're the one."
And we had just begun.
We got hitched in September, our favorite month,
with a rock band that played in this old synagogue.
And we bought an apartment on West 17th street and talked about children and getting a dog.
Our first anniversary came in a flash
and we promised to take the day off.
He had to stop into his office that morning,
and so I went walking uptown to this bakery I know.
When I heard on the street what I thought was a joke
till I noticed the sirens and saw all the smoke.
So I'm running back home with this feeling of dread
to the voicemail he left with the last words he said.
I'm sorry, I don't mean to ruin your evening by bringing up all of this stuff.
You're probably wondering why I even called you tonight.
Well today something happened that spooked me alright.
I saw this storm cloud of papers fall down from the sky,
and I thought of that day and I started to cry.
When as sure as I breath I heard John clear as day saying
"Hey, you're allowed to move on. It's okay.'
'Because I'll be here
even if you decide to get rid of my favorite sweater.
Even if you go out on my birthday this year instead of staying at home letting all of life's moments pass by.
You don't have to cry.'
'Because I'll be here
when you start going back to the places we went to together.
When you take off my ring and you let yourself smile.
When you meet some handsome and patient and true.
When he says that he wants to be married to you.
When you call him one night and he meets you downtown.
When you finally answer him yes."
Yes.
Jason, I will marry you.
I will give you my heart.
It has taken so long, but I'm ready to start.
Right now John's whispering 'Congrats' in my ear cause I finally let myself tell you
That I will be here.
We met, of all places, in front of Gristides, some freakishly cold winter's day.
I had on several unflattering layers of wool.
He slipped on the ice with his grocery bags full,
So I rescued some Fruit Loops he dropped by the curb
and he made some remark that my smile was superb
