The Next Ten Minutes

JAMIE:
No, that one's Jerry Seinfeld
That one's John Lennon there
No, the Dakota
The San Remo is up a few blocks
Have you been inside the museum
We should go, meet the dinosaurs
Cathy

Will you share your life with me
For the next ten minutes?
For the next ten minutes
We can handle that
We could watch the waves
We could watch the sky
Or just sit and wait
As the time ticks by
And if we make it till then
Can I ask you again
For another ten?

And if you in turn agree
To the next ten minutes
And the next ten minutes
Till the morning comes
Then just holding you
Might compel me to
Ask you for more
There are so many lives I want to share with you
I will never be complete until I do

CATHY:

I am not always on time
Please don't expect that from me
I will be late
But if you can just wait
I will make it eventually
Not like it's in my control
Not like I'm proud of the fact
But anything other than being exactly on time
I can do

I don't know why people run
I don't know why plans fall through
I don't know how anybody survives in this life
Without someone like you
I could protect and preserve
I could say no and goodbye
But why, Jamie, why?

I want to be your wife
I want to bear your child
I want to die
Knowing I
Had a long loving life
In your arms
That I can do
Forever, with you

JAMIE:

Will you share your life with me?

CATHY:

Forever

JAMIE:

For the next ten minutes?

CATHY:

Forever, Jamie

JAMIE:

For a million summers

BOTH:

Till the world explodes
Till there's no one left
Who has ever known us apart

JAMIE:

There are so many dreams
I need to see with you...

CATHY:

There are so many years
I need to be with you...

JAMIE:

I will never be complete

CATHY:

I will never be alive

JAMIE:

I will never change the world
Until I do

CATHY:

I do

JAMIE:

I do

CATHY:

I do

BOTH:

I do

CATHY:

Is that one John Lennon?
That's the San Remo there.
Isn't that the museum?
Can we go see the dinosaurs?
