Author's Notes:
The song is called "My Lover's Gone" by Dido. Thanks for reading and feedback.
My lover's gone
His boots no longer by my door

He left at dawn
And as I slept I felt him go
Returns no more
I will not watch the ocean
My lover's gone
No earthly ships will ever bring him home again...
Bring him home again


He's gone. It's hard to believe it, but he is. Gone in search of his past -- whatever it may be. And as Ah sit here in my room, Ah can't help but feel alone again. Ah think back to MY home -- in Mississippi.

Ah had a family once. A dad. A mom. Ah had a normal life once. And in one fell swoop, it dissappeared. And Ah found myself in the backwoods of Canada. Starving, cold, and alone. Ah walked into a grimy, sleazy bar and there before me was a monstrosity of a man. A man fighting like Ah've never seen anyone fight before. By the end of the night, Ah knew what Ah had to do. Ah knew that Ah could count on this man -- this Wolverine. And so Ah became a stowaway.

My lover's gone
I know that kiss will be my last
No more his song
The tune upon his lips has passed
I sing alone
While I watch the ocean
My lover's gone

No earthly ships will ever bring him home again...
Bring him home again


He promised me that he would take care of me. And he did. He saved me once from Magneto's scheme to destroy all of mankind. And yes, he saved me from my own lonliness. Ah wish he weren't leaving...Ah would give anything for him to just stay here with me or at least take me with him.

Jean thinks Ah'm "taken with him." And yeah, Ah guess Ah am. Ah'm sure she thinks its just a crush; that what Ah'm feeling is the result of overwhelming teenage hormones. But, it's not like that at all. Ah love him. Ah do. And Ah just don't "love" him because he's hot. Don't get me wrong, he is. But, Ah love him in a more deeper level. He's inside my head and Ah know more about him then Ah think he knows of himself. And as Ah hold his dogtags in my palm, Ah know Ah love him.

Ah'll wait for you Logan. Ah know you won't break your promise. Ah know you'll come back for me -- to take care o' me. Ah'll wait for you forever, Wolvie.

My lover's gone
His boots no longer by my door

He left at dawn
And as I slept I felt him go
Returns no more
I will not watch the ocean
My lover's gone
No earthly ships will ever bring him home again...
Bring him home again
