The man fascinates him. Lestrade's been secretly in love with Sherlock for years. And even if he realises Sherlock loves someone else and that his "chances are few", he decides to confess his love...
I am not a Sherlock/Lestrade shipper (I do ship Johnlock though, hehe), nor do I think it is a possibility that Lestrade loves Sherlock, but truth is that I love this song, wanted to make a Johnlock video using it, and immediately thought of Lestrade (though Molly could have done the trick as well!) so here you are! It's only my second attempt at creating a fanvid so bear with me! My main aim is choosing scènes which perfectly fit the lyrics.
Song: That look you give that guy, by EELS.
Clips are from Sherlock BBC and Take a girl like you.
I do not own anything. No copyright infringement intended.
Here are the lyrics:
I never thought that I could be so bold,
to even say these thoughts aloud.
I see you with your man, your eyes just shine,
while he stands tall and walking proud.
That look you give that guy, I wanna see...
Looking right at me.
If I could be that guy, instead of me...
I'd never let you go.
It always seems like you're going somewhere,
better than you've been before.
Well I go to sleep, and I dream all night,
of you knocking on my door.
That look you give that guy, I wanna see...
Looking right at me.
If I could be that guy, instead of me...
I'd be all I can be. I'd be all I can be.
I'm nothing like what I'd like to be
I'm nothing much i know it's true
I lack the style and the pedigree
And my chances are so few
That look you give that guy, I wanna see...
Looking right at me.
If I could be that guy, instead of me...
I'd give you all I got.
I never thought that I could be so bold,
to even say these thoughts aloud.
But if let's say, it won't work out.
You know where I can be found.
That look you give that guy, I wanna see...
Looking right at me.
If I could be that guy, instead of me...
I'd never let you down. I'd never let you down.
Thanks for watching!
