CHAPTER 10


AJ noticed that Katie was writing something in a notebook. He reached over and grabbed it out of her hands. He asked, “ What’s this?”


“ I’m working on these song lyrics.”


“ Can I read them?”


“ Sure, it’s not done yet.”


“ No problem.” He said as he began to read them.




I wish I could define

All the thoughts that cross my mind

They seem to big for me to choose

I don't know which ones to lose

And I've fallen down so far

I think I'll never see your light

Bouncing off of me
Shining down here from your eyes


Chorus

Help me

Figure out the difference

Between right and wrong, weak and strong

Day and night where I belong

Help me

Make the right decision

Know which way to turn lessons to learn

And just what my purpose is here





“ Wow. This is really good.” He said.


“ Thanks. I was thinking about having Kevin have a look at it. See what he thinks. I thought maybe you guys could record it as a single.”


“ Yeah, that sounds like a good idea.” He said. AJ turned around and said, “ Hey, Kev. Take a look at this.”


“ What is it?” asked Kevin.


“ Song lyrics. They’re not done, but look at them anyway.” AJ said.


“ Okay. Give me a minute and I’ll give them back. I’ll have Howie, Nick, and Brian look at them too. Then I’ll let you finish them”


“ Hey, they’re not mine. Katie wrote it.” Said AJ.


AJ turned back around and looked at her. She said, “ I wrote those after the audition. After I met you.”


“ Wow. I made that much of an impact on you?” he asked.


“ Yeah. After all, you are the great, sexy Mr. Mclean.” She said in a low, sexy voice.


“ Hey, don’t do that unless you plan on finishing what you started.” He said.


“ I couldn’t resist.”


“ Yeah, sure. I know you meant it. You can’t help but fall in love with me.” He said.


“ Someday, Mclean, someday.” She said.


“ Here you go Aje. They all love the lyrics. Tell her to finish them.” Said Kevin.


“ Katie, guess what?” said AJ.


“ Yeah, I heard him. he told me to finish the lyrics. Give them to me so I can finish them.”


“ Need any help?” asked AJ.


“ Sure. Why not?” said Katie.




For the rest of the plane ride they worked on the song. They finished it right before they landed.




I wish I could define

All the thoughts that cross my mind

They seem to big for me to choose

I don't know which ones to lose

And I've fallen down so far

I think I'll never see your light

Bouncing off of me

Shining down here from your eyes


Chorus

Help me

Figure out the difference

Between right and wrong, weak and strong

Day and night where I belong

Help me

Make the right decision

Know which way to turn lessons to learn

And just what my purpose is here


It's like I got the signals crossed

With messages I can't decode

Half asleep never wide awake

I'm on complete overload


I got so much information here

And nothin I can really grasp

I should know the truth

But I'm too afraid so I have to ask


Chorus


Wanna know you

More than anything

I need you

In my every dream

You're there for me

You love me

For who I am

No angel

Just an ordinary man

Help me figure out

Why I'm stuck in the middle

Tryin to understand

Why I can't quite,

it's such a riddle

Got my eyes crossed

Thinkin so hard

And I know I'm missin the mark


Can you help me sort out

All this information

I'm just rackin my brain

Payin attention

But I'm still lost

And at all costs

I

I gotta know (I GOTTA KNOW!! KNOW!!)


Chorus


Can you help me sort out

All this information

I'm just rackin my brain

Payin attention

But I'm still lost

And at all costs

I

I gotta know (I GOTTA KNOW!! KNOW!!)
