Song: "Cherry" by the Smashing Pumpkins
"Stay with me, I'll set you free, 'Cause I can tell you once were pretty / Rose so sad, you've lost your petals, Lost the lustre off your tattle tales"
"I need a love to help me find my way, I need a strength that I cannot betray"
"What are we waiting for? What are we waiting for? Time has lost its hold on me"
"I need a word to say what I can't say, I need a lover"
