"He thought he was gonna die, But he didn't. She thought she just couldn't cope, But she did. We thought it would be so hard, But it wasn't... It wasn't easy, though!"

"We hang on to every line, And walk straight down the middle of it."

"We're calling out for Middle Street."

"I should be crying, but I just can't let it show. I should be hoping, but I can't stop thinking Of all the things I should've said, That I never said. All the things we should've done, That we never did. All the things I should've given, But I didn't."

"I know you have a little life in you yet. I know you have a lot of strength left."

"I am a rocket On fire. Look at me go, with my tail on fire..."

"I thought you were crazy, wishing such a thing. I saw only a stick on fire, Alone on its journey Home to the quickening ground, With no one there to catch it."

"The thrill and the hurting Will never be mine."

"I want you as the dream, Not the reality. That clumsy good-bye kiss could fool me. But looking back over my shoulder at you happy without me."

"This is where I want to be. This is what I need. This is where I want to be, But I know that this will never be mine."

"I look at you and see my life that might have been your face just ghostly in the smoke. They're setting fire to the cornfields as you're taking me home. The smell of burning fields will now mean you and here."

"Where angels fear to tread, You go rushing in. Stay out of this You must not interfere Don't you see this is Between a man and a woman?"

"He said it was her fault. She said it wasn't at all. But the truth lies somewhere in the middle."

"I turn to my computer like a friend. I need deeper understanding. Give me deeper understanding..."

"Hello, I know that you've been feeling tired. I bring you love and deeper understanding. Hello, I know that you're unhappy. I bring you love and deeper understanding…."

"As the people here grow colder I turn to my computer And spend my evenings with it Like a friend."

"Well, I couldn't see what was to be So I just stood there laughing A picture of you, a picture of you in uniform Standing with your head held high Hot down to the floor but it couldn't be you It couldn't be you, it's a picture of Hitler"

"They say that the Devil is a charming man. And just like you I bet he can dance."

"You talked me into the game of chance. It was '39, before the music started, When you walked up to me and you said, "Hey, heads we dance.""

"See how the flower leans instinctively Toward the light. See how the heart reaches out instinctively For no reason but to touch..."

"Reaching out for that hand to hold. Reaching out for the Star. Reaching out for the Star that explodes. Reaching out for Mama."

"See how the child reaches out instinctively To feel how fire will feel. See how the man reaches out instinctively For what he cannot have. The pull and the push of it all."

"Is this love big enough to watch over me? Big enough to let go of me Without hurting me, Like the day I learned to swim?"

"This love was big enough for the both of us. This love of yours was big enough to be frightened of. It's deep and dark, like the water was, The day I learned to swim."

"Just like a feeling that you're sending out, I pick it up. But I can't let you go. If I let you go, You slip into the fog..."

"Just like a photograph, I pick you up. Just like a station on the radio, I pick you up."

"You might not, not think so now, But just you wait and see — someone will come to help you."

"We're building a house of the future together. (What would we do without you?)"

"We could be like two strings beating, Speaking in sympathy..."

"If you can't tell your sister, If you can't tell a priest, 'Cause it's so deep you don't think that you can speak about it To anyone, Can you tell it to your heart? Can you find it in your heart To let go of these feelings..."

"Take away the love and the anger, And a little piece of hope holding us together. Looking for a moment that'll never happen, Living in the gap between past and future. Take away the stone and the timber, And a little piece of rope won't hold it together."

"It lay buried here. It lay deep inside me. It's so deep I don't think that I can speak about it. It could take me all of my life, But it would only take a moment to Tell you what I'm feeling, But I don't know if I'm ready yet."

"I said, mmh... yes, But not yet, mmh... yes, Mmh... Yes."

"Stepping out, off the page, into the sensual world. And then our arrows of desire rewrite the speech..."

"You don't need words — just one kiss, then another."

"Do I look for those millionaires Like a Machiavellian girl would When I could wear the sunset?"

"He said I was a flower of the mountain, yes, But now I've powers o'er a woman's body, yes. Stepping out of the page into the sensual world. Stepping out... To where the water and the earth caress And the down on a peach says mmh, Yes..."

"I'll kiss the ground. I'll tell my mother, I'll tell my father, I'll tell my loved one, I'll tell my brothers How much I love them."

"The light Begin to bleed, Begin to breathe, Begin to speak. D'you know what? I love you better now."

"I was there at the birth, Out of the cloudburst, The head of the tempest. Murderer! Murder of calm..."

"Watching storms Start to form Over America. Can't do anything. Just watch them swing With the wind Out to sea."
