Love Doesn't Ask Why
Part 8
don’t you know that love doesn’t think twice
--------------------
sometimes it’s hard to walk away
Scene: - A few hours later. Dawson is about to leave.
Joey walks up behind him and puts her arms around his waist.
knowing there’s so much more to say
tell me
JOEY: "I’m sorry for all the pain I cause you. I wish I could make this better for you but I can’t."
DAWSON: "You shouldn’t have to make it better, it’s okay."
JOEY: "No it’s not okay. I wish that you would stop pretending that life is a bed of roses because it’s not. It isn’t simple and it isn’t pain free. God that makes me sound like a big ogre."
DAWSON (turns so that he can put his arms around her) : "I know that this is harder for you and so is my leaving. I still don’t completely understand your reasoning. Sending me away to cause me less pain, even though I’d rather be here with you. So what happens now? Do we just break all contact or do we stay in touch?"
JOEY: "I don’t know. Maybe we should just see how we feel. Take a few months cooling off period."
have you ever felt your heart was breaking
can’t help but think that this is wrong
DAWSON: "Okay. How much longer are you staying here for?"
JOEY: "Another few weeks."
The cab that is waiting outside blasts it’s horn.
DAWSON: "I should go." Joey nods her head. "Are you sure that this is what you want?"
JOEY: "No, it’s what I need."
DAWSON: "If you ever need to talk about anything, and I mean anything you just have to call me. Don’t bottle it up, talk to someone. I’m really going to miss you Joey."
JOEY: "Dawson I’m going to miss you too."
They hug and then kiss. Joey walks him to the door. As he is about to leave the house he turns to her.
DAWSON: "Don’t do this Joey. Don’t end it this way, ask me to stay! I love you." He starts to cry. "Let me help you. I want to help you"
it was forever that I found (forever that I found)
tell me
JOEY: "I can’t, I want to but I can’t. I just can’t. Maybe someday I’ll be able to explain to you my reasoning for this, but I can’t just now. I can’t." She takes his hands and puts her forehead to his. "I know that when I am able to explain all of this it’ll probably be to late, but now just isn’t the time. You’re in LA, I’m in Boston. You have Gretchen and I have Pacey. It’s how it has to be." She then wipes the tears from his face and he takes her hands. "It’s just not meant to be for now."
DAWSON: "I just have one question for you. What would you have done if this hadn’t happened? If you hadn’t lost the baby?"
looking down the road you should be taking
I really wanna hear you say
JOEY: "I don’t know. I would have told you, but after that I...I don’t know what we would have done."
The cab driver blasts his horn again.
DAWSON: "I really have to go now. I’ll see you Joey." They kiss briefly and then he lets go of her hands. "I love you Jo."
JOEY: "See ya Dawson." Then she feels the tears about to start.
to have it all and let it slip away
As he gets in the cab his eyes water again. Was that it? The last time that he’d hear her say those words? ‘See ya Dawson’. Would he ever see her again? God I hope so.
JOEY (whispering) : "I love you too Dawson, maybe more than you’ll ever know"
Scene: - 5 minutes later. Joey is in her room.
the way the world goes round
BETH: "How are you?"
JOEY: "Believe it or not, I’m relieved that he’s gone. Now I don’t have to watch what I say. Yet at the same time I wish that he was here with me."
BETH: "And how is he?"
JOEY: "Upset." She starts to cry. "I’ve sent him away again. I’ve sent away the one guy that I ever truly loved. The only guy that ever really cared about me for me. I don’t even know if I’m going to see him again. He wanted me to tell him to stay, but I couldn’t."
looking down the road you should be taking
Yes I loved and lost the day I let
BETH: "Couldn’t or wouldn’t?"
JOEY: "Wouldn’t. He also asked me what I would have did if this hadn’t happened."
BETH: "What did you tell him?"
JOEY: "The only thing that I could tell him, I lied to him. I told him I didn’t know."
BETH: "And what would you have done?"
JOEY: "I’d have given up everything to be with him, I’d have given up my dream of going to Worthington for him. I would have just wanted him."
it can come all at once, a whisper from a distance
