Thinking
<
You know, I think I found the perfect song for the relationship between Buffy and Spike.

Michelle Branch's "Something To Sleep To"

The lyrics... (uncommented)

She's his yellow brick road
Leading him on
And letting him go as far as she lets him go
Going down to nowhere

She puts on her make-up
The same way she did yesterday
Hoping everything's the same
But everything has changed

In my mind
Everything we did was right
Open your eyes, I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to at night

He wakes up to the sound
So scared that she's leaving
He wishes she were still asleep next to him
Hoping she will change

In my mind
Everything we did was right
Open your eyes, I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to at night

You give me something to sleep to
And all I know is
You give me something to dream to when I'm all alone and blue
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now

Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now

In my mind
Everything we did was right
Open your eyes, I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to
Something to sleep to
Something to sleep to at night

JJ's Thoughts

She's his yellow brick road
Leading him on
And letting him go as far as she lets him go
Going down to nowhere

^ That stanza shows how Buffy puts Spike on a leash, and only let's him go as far as she allows. (ca. 7th season)

She puts on her make-up
The same way she did yesterday
Hoping everything's the same
But everything has changed

^ The showing of how Buffy tries to sweep her and Spike's sexual relations under the rug. How she hides them until Once More, With Feeling when they are thrown into the open.

In my mind
Everything we did was right
Open your eyes, I'll still be by your side
How could I ever have been so blind?
You give me something to sleep to at night

^ Spike's verse. Spike never regreted anything he did. From becoming the last sacrifice in the fight for Sunndale, to killing his mother, after he had turned her.

He wakes up to the sound
So scared that she's leaving
He wishes she were still asleep next to him
Hoping she will change

^ Another perfect example of Spike. (Duh, it has he)

Spike was in total love with Buffy, and he wasn't afraid to show it, although Buffy stopped him from doing it while they were together. When ever they spent the night together, Buffy was always out the door, with just a couple of words, and a quick glance of her. (ca. 6th season)

You give me something to sleep to
And all I know is
You give me something to dream to when I'm all alone and blue
Don't leave me now
Don't leave me now

^ Spike had Buffy on the mind ever since he first met her in the 2nd season. Drusilla left him because she could tell that he was only thinking about Buffy. ALthough he found love in Harmony, he didn't find Buffy. When he finally got her, he got so into it, that he was helpless when she left him.


And the rest has already been accounted for.

If anyone wants to challenge me, or has another song they'd like me to use, you know where the box is.
