— Claire Colburn // Elizabethtown
don’t i hold you (alternate version) - wheat
Sometimes I hold you right
Nice and tight
To me
Most times
On account it’s based on need
Not selfish greed, or pride
Don’t I?

Claire: Do you want to hear my theory?
Drew: Of course.
Claire: You and I have a special talent, and I saw it immediately.
Drew: Tell me.
Claire: We are the substitute people.
Drew: The substitute people.
Claire: I’ve been the substitute person my whole life. I’m not an Ellen; I never wanted to be an Ellen. And I’m not a Cindy, either. Although Chucks love me.
Drew: I’m sure they do.
Claire: I like being alone too much. I mean, I’m with a guy who’s married to this academic career. I rarely see him and I’m the substitute person there. I like it that way, it’s a lot less pressure.
