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
