Lost in Tropical Paradise

His legs ran over the busy airport floors , his eyes searching for her

His breathing was ragged , his shoulders tense

Where was she? Did she leave already?

"Pierre , come on! Her boarding room is this way" David said.

I nodded and ran forward just in time for the woman to announce that boarding will now begin.

"I see her! I see her" I said and ran forward

"Leanne , Leanne please... stop!!"

She paused and turned around , her eyes in a frown.

"What are you doing here?'

What was I doing here?

I broke up with her. I was mean towards her.

I told her I hated her

I told her she was worthless and that I have found someone else.

I shook my head and decided to think about the best memories I had with her. They all seemed so far away now and that was all my fault.

The day we met. I was having a bad day and the paparazzi couldn't get enough of me. I asked her to be my pretend girlfriend. I begged her to pretend as though she was waiting for me in the restaurant.

With a smile , she nodded and told me she liked my music but she didn't know about me well enough to be a fan.

She was sweet , beautiful , gorgeous and incredibly nice.

We had dinner , and I argued with her to let me pay the bill.

She refused and we split the bill after a lot of reluctance from me.

I begged her to give me her number.

I remember her breathtaking smile , and the shock look on her face when she gave it to me.

She asked me why I , a successful rock star , would want her number

I laughed and told her that I liked her.

I asked her to be my girlfriend after 4 months of knowing her.

The guys loved her , their girls thought of her as their best friend.

My family loved her more than they loved me.

My brother told her that she could do better , and I knew it but I didn't act on it until a month ago.

She finally had enough and told me she was leaving

I called her bluff , but I was wrong

I lost her.

I watched her walk out of my house

I watched her walk out of my life.

But I want her back , I drove all the way to the airport and I was gonna get her back even if it was the last thing I would ever do.

"Pierre? What..." she whispered getting out of the line. I clenched my jaw and walked up to her.

"Please don't leave me. I'm so sorry about what I've done. I am a fuck up , I know but I need you. I need you in my life. I want you in my life baby girl"

"Pierre" she shook her head , "I need to go"

"No. No you fucking don't" I begged , "You don't have to. I will never , ever be that mean to you again. I love you so much baby"

She cried and I took my guitar from David.

"I wrote you a song. Please hear me out , please"

She nodded and sniffed , "okay"

I smiled , and took a deep breath and then began strumming on the guitar.

The airport was looking at me now , but I didn't care. I only want her to look at me , to listen.

I've never been the best at honesty,
I've made more mistakes than I can even count,
But things are gonna be so different now,
You make me wanna turn it all around.

I think of all the games that I have played,
The unsuspecting people that I've hurt,
Deep inside I know I don't deserve,
Another chance to finally make it work.

But I'll try, to never disappoint you,
I'll try, until I get it right,
I've always been so reckless, all of my life,
But I'll try,
For you.

I've been the best at letting people down,
I've never been the kind of person you could trust,
But if you can give me half a chance I'll show,
How much I can fix myself for you.

And I'll try, to never disappoint you,
I'll try, until I get it right, (til I get it right)
I've always been so reckless, all of my life,
But I'll try...

This time I won't make up excuses (Cause I don't wanna lose you),
Don't give up on me and I'll prove that,
I can do this!

I'll try, to never disappoint you,
I'll try, until I get it right (till I get it right),
I've always been so reckless, all of my life,
But I'll try,
For you.

(Never been the best at honesty, you know that you could never count on me)
I'll try for you!
(But if you give me half a chance I'll show, there is nothing that I wouldn't do for you!)
I'll try for you!

I've always been so reckless, all of my life,
But I'll try,
For you.

She sniffed and cried harder

"Please don't leave me baby. I can't have you leave me. I don't think I can survive without you"

She cried harder and threw her body into my arms almost knocking the guitar out of my hand.

"I won't leave you. I won't. I won't"

I smiled and kissed her with all the love I could find.

She's finally back in my arms

and I will never let her go

again.
