2:52:37 - OK I’ll hear you. But it doesn’t have to be like this.
2.54.03 - Come one baby, please!!! You’re breaking my heart, please!!! This is shear [unclear - could be an auto correct or typo intended as another word such as swell, sweet, when, where or weird] you text Baby…. Do you happen to have Laurel’s number??? I’d like to just call her and tell her that I’m running late… Obviously, you can start without me… I’m trying to get everything done and it’s almost impossible!!! I’m sorry but I’m trying my best, my love.. I swear!!! Don’t want us to travel down a road that is not absolutely necessary!!!
We deserve better!!! We’ve been beautiful and fun and perfect!!! Don’t want to slip out of where we’ve been over something that, in the larger picture, is not worthy of fighting over!!! You know that I worship you!!! I’ve not skipped out on us, or you!!! We always knew that I HAD TO catch up in the studio when we got back… Anyway…
I just love you and never want to hurt you or make you feel bad… And, at the same time I don’t want to feel bad for the responsibility I owe the recording of MY song… The sessions were postponed for our travels etc… That’s why Joe started doing his solo record and I needed to be there for him, especially when Bruce abandoned him!!! Anyway… I love you… Sorry for the long text… X Yours Steve
