01x07 - Track 7: She's Gone

[bunniefuu]

- This is the club where I work.
- This is a New York address.

Come by if you're ever in
town. I could show you around.

Previously on Daisy Jones and The Six...

That's my voice.

I just need to get out of here.

- To where?
- To New York.

I told you what that
woman said at the party.

- "That woman."
- [CHUCKLES SOFTLY]

[DAISY] And just like
that, she was gone.

[BILLY] We have a new
member of the band.

- Let's hear it for Daisy Jones.
- [BAND CHEERING]

Why'd you want to join the
band in the first place?

- You.
- What about me?

[DAISY] I feel like I know you.

- It's not what you think, man.
- Okay.

Every song is like a coded
message from Billy to Daisy,

- Daisy to Billy.
- You make everything better.

[DAISY] Tell me that there's
nothing going on between us.

Tell me if I'm f*cking crazy.

[JONAH] I could've sworn
you two were together.

How do you know we're not?

Not according to Billy.

You're a f*cking liar.

- Please, don't put my daughter in your story.
- Give me something better then.

He doesn't actually
have feelings for you.

He said it's all about the music.

I'm looking for the
woman who lives here.

[WOMAN] And how long were you planning

to stay in Greece, Miss Jones?

[DAISY] You know,

I never really think that far ahead.
