| [00:00.080] | Alvin |
| [00:00.389] | There's gotta be thousands of stories in this head of yours, tom. |
| [00:04.330] | Don’t look for one that isn't there. |
| [00:07.421] | (alvin looks around at the mess of papers and books strewn about in thomas’s mind.) |
| [00:08.336] | |
| [00:09.579] | This is it tom |
| [00:12.507] | This is all there is. |
| [00:16.037] | And isn’t it amazing’ |
| [00:20.071] | Here we sit, tom. |
| [00:22.952] | Forever tossing branches off a bridge. |
| [00:27.673] | |
| [00:30.408] | Here we’re frozen at ten. |
| [00:32.921] | Here we’re awkward young men. |
| [00:35.390] | And you filed away these memories |
| [00:38.009] | Bit by bit. |
| [00:39.809] | |
| [00:40.622] | Now look again. |
| [00:42.707] | You wanted a story, tom |
| [00:45.616] | Well this, |
| [00:47.081] | All around you, |
| [00:48.490] | This is it. |
| [00:50.799] | |
| [00:52.985] | Admit, tom |
| [00:55.889] | You expected more. |
| [00:59.867] | But isn’t this refreshing’ |
| [01:03.479] | This is it, tom. |
| [01:06.408] | Sure, it’s nothing like the picture on the box. |
| [01:09.936] | |
| [01:11.455] | And no secrets exist, |
| [01:13.917] | In some moment you missed, |
| [01:16.412] | Just accept that sometimes pieces |
| [01:18.891] | Might not fit. |
| [01:22.134] | And that’s okay. |
| [01:23.798] | ‘Cause all that you needed, tom |
| [01:26.848] | Is here. |
| [01:28.150] | All around you, |
| [01:29.601] | This is it. |
| [01:30.654] | |
| [01:31.063] | Look at them all. Stories about you. Stories about me. Stories about us. |
| [01:35.242] | Just waiting for you to pick them and write them down. |
| [01:40.456] | |
| [01:42.534] | You are a writer. |
| [01:44.916] | Take what you know. |
| [01:47.420] | Here there's a lifetime of moments and details |
| [01:50.250] | Now you make them blossom and grow. |
| [01:52.874] | Find what’s important. |
| [01:54.427] | Thomas |
| [01:54.607] | Find what’s important. |
| [01:56.020] | Alvin |
| [01:56.207] | Help it to thrive. |
| [01:57.146] | Thomas |
| [01:57.315] | Help it to thrive. |
| [01:58.479] | Alvin |
| [01:58.660] | When you rearrange them and tell them |
| [02:00.612] | You keep all our memories and stories alive. |
| [02:03.575] | Thousands of stories |
| [02:04.953] | Thomas |
| [02:05.113] | Thousands of stories |
| [02:07.966] | Both |
| [02:08.133] | Constantly new. |
| [02:12.619] | |
| [02:13.488] | Alvin |
| [02:13.656] | So our stories remain |
| [02:15.439] | Thomas |
| [02:15.620] | Stories remain |
| [02:17.221] | Alvin |
| [02:17.409] | Full of laughter and pain. |
| [02:19.501] | |
| [02:21.520] | Thomas |
| [02:21.809] | Mixed with capra and twain. |
| [02:25.536] | |
| [02:26.828] | Alvin |
| [02:27.053] | Told by you. |
| [02:31.794] | |
| [02:36.112] | You and me, tom |
| [02:39.746] | This is all we get. |
| [02:45.138] | And wasn’t it exciting’ |
| [02:47.959] | But don’t you see, tom |
| [02:51.138] | It isn’t really over, after all. |
| [02:56.599] | |
| [02:58.739] | Just like stones in a lake |
| [03:01.692] | And the ripples they make |
| [03:04.443] | Stories carry on through time |
| [03:06.684] | And never quit. |
| [03:09.488] | It’s up to you. |
| [03:11.738] | This isn’t my story now |
| [03:14.633] | It’s yours. |
| [03:16.375] | Look around you. |
| [03:17.759] | This is it. |
| [03:19.491] | |
| [03:23.177] | This is you. |
| [03:24.442] | This is me. |
| [03:25.956] | This is love. |
