    Him: I could have been someone

    Her: Well, so could anyone
    Her: You took my dreams from me
    Her: When I first found you

    Him: I kept them with me, babe
    Him: I put them with my own
    Him: Can’t make it all alone
    Him: I’ve built my dreams around you

    -Fairytale of New York

    In Manhattan’s desert twilight
    In the death of afternoon
    We stepped hand in hand on Broadway
    Like the first man on the moon

    And “The Blackbird” broke the silence
    As you whistled it so sweet
    And in Brendan Behan’s footsteps
    I danced up and down the street

    -Thousands are Sailing
