“It started off as hatred
Visions of you dead
And you became a constant thought
In my soddin’ head
I could knock you out and tie you
To a cemetery tree
And watch as demons ate you
As I looked on with glee
But then you slept with Angel
And things turned upside down
So I worked beside you
And then ran out of town
It didn’t take too long
For Dru to leave my side
So I came back to Sunnydale
To regain my pride
I stole your little wicca
So she could do a spell
And ruined Xanders love life,
I felt so bleedin’ swell
I left again in hopes of
Winning back my Dru
“Poor Spike your lost to sunshine
There’s nothing I can do.”
Not knowing what she meant
I began to drive
Planning on a fight
You would not survive
But life’s a little tricky
And I got a chip inside my head
Red decides to do a spell
And we’re planning to be wed
I came to terms with feelings
That I never knew I had
Making me a puppy
Instead of the Big Bad
And when I watched you die
I couldn’t handle it
But I pulled myself together
To protect the bit
But magic brought you back
From the heaven you were in
And the thought of shagging me
Was no longer a sin
But still you shut me out
I begged you for some more
And every time that I got close
You’d always shut the door
Then one day I craved it
That feeling to be whole
So I went to great lengths
To regain my soul
You told me that you needed me
Asked me not to go
You let me in a little
And let our friendship grow
You can see the man
That I’ve hidden for so long
The man that truly loves you
The man that writes this song
I’m writing as you sleep now
I’m your champion tonight
And I’ll be that tomorrow
When we go fight the fight
I hope this doesn’t scare you
I know I come on strong
But when it comes to loving you
I know that it’s not wrong
I don’t know if I’ll live through this
This world saving fight
If I do I’ll die lucky
To have held you one last night.”
With tears in her eyes she looked down at the sleeping vampire and clutched the piece of paper she was never meant to see before she walked upstairs to make a phone call to Angel. "It's his unstable necklace" she thought to herself," let him chance wearing it!" Spike was going to be pissed but he would understand. Once she finally told him she loved him, he would understand.
