I was walking around, looking for Kyla when I heard Ashley speak into the mic.

Ashley: "I learned this song especially for this one person who drives my heart crazy. In the best possible way I can assure you."

I knew it had to be for me. That must be why she wanted me to get off the stage. So I could look into her eyes and watch her play. She really is amazing. About that time I found Kyla and Aiden. I walked over to them and silently stood beside them. I was more interested in what Ashley was doing. I just didn’t want to be standing all alone. I have enough bad memories of this place as it is. I don’t want to make more.

Ashley sang the most beautiful song to me. She barely broke eye contact with me through out the whole song. She would occasionally look down at her guitar and examine her finger placement, but other than that her eyes were only for me.

It was a monday, when my lover told me,
"never pay the reaper with love only."
What could i say to you, except, "i love you."
And "i’d give my life for yours."

I know we are… we are the lucky ones.
I know we are… we are the lucky ones.
I know we are… we are the lucky ones, dear.

The first time we made love, i… i wasn’t sober.
(and you told me you loved me over and over!)
How could i ever love another, when i miss you every day…

Remember the time we made love in the roses?
(and you took my picture in all sorts of poses!)
How could i ever get over you, when i’d give my life for yours.

I know we are… we are the lucky ones.
I know we are… we are the lucky ones.
I know we are… we are the lucky ones.
I know we are… we are the lucky ones, dear.

My dear, It’s time to say i thank god for you.
I thank god for you in each and every single way.
And, i know… i know.. i know.. i know…

It’s time to let you know. time to let you know.
Time to let you know. time to sit here and say…

I know we are… we are the lucky ones.
I know we are… we are the lucky ones.
I know we are… we are the lucky ones.
I know we are… we are the lucky ones, dear.
Dear, We are the lucky ones, dear…
Dear, We are the lucky ones, dear…
Dear, We are the lucky ones, dear…
We are the lucky ones, dear…
We are the lucky ones, dear…

The crowd burst into applause and Ashley thanked them as she stood to leave the stage. I couldn’t help it. I took off running to meet her back stage.
