[LIZZIE, spoken]
File, your wife. What was she like? Was she real beautiful?

[FILE, spoken]
Yes. Yes, she was.

[LIZZIE, spoken]
That’s what I was afrai- that’s what I thought. So. Between the two of you, how’d it happen?

[FILE, spoken]
I don’t know. The worst part about it, I just don’t know. I wonder if I ever will.

(sung)
A man and a woman
Can be so close together
That they almost become like one
The promise to love till life
Is done

A man and a woman
Can be part of each other
But somehow it is very strange —
The thing that you love the most
Can change

Hard times come
And when they do
You don’t mean what you say
But once you have hurt each other
You start to drift away
Then the man and the woman
Who were so close together
Can be suddenly so alone —
Forgetting the lovely moments they’ve known
And the man and the woman
Must go back to just living
All alone

[LIZZIE]
It doesn't have to be like that
It doesn't need to end that way
I know it's hard, and yet I feel
That you can make it last
Forever

For a man and a woman
Can be so close together
That they almost become like one
They promise to love till life
Is done

A man and a woman
Can be part of each other
And though troubles may come and go
The love that you have inside
Will grow.
Hard times come
But that’s all right
You know that you'll pull through
As long as you have each other
There’s nothing you-

[FILE & LIZZIE]
-Can’t do
And the man and the woman
Who were so close together
Can be closer as time goes by

[LIZZIE]
As long as they bother are willin' to try

[FILE & LIZZIE]
Then the man and the woman
Will grow closer
Until the day they die

[FILE]
It may be true
I just don’t know

[LIZZIE]
I feel so sure
It could be so
[FILE & LIZZIE]
A love can last
Until you die!
