His symphony was played there.
It was a great success.

:48:03
Of course you're in love with him.
:48:06
I don't even know him.
:48:07
You will.
Life is a local affair.

:48:11
I can see it happening.
:48:13
You'll be at the height
of your success and he'll call on you,

:48:17
and tell you he met you
at some super party.

:48:19
Won't I recognize him?
:48:21
Oh no. He's grown a beard.
Musicians do.

:48:26
He'll tell you
he's composed a ballet for you.

:48:29
And you'll realize who he is,
you'll tell him who you are

:48:33
and how you met,
and how you waited on him.

:48:36
And gave him extra music sheets.
:48:39
And that night you'll dine together
:48:44
on a balcony
overlooking the Thames.

:48:48
It'll be summer.
:48:50
And you'll be wearing
pink mousseline.

:48:54
And he'll be conscious
of its fragrance.

:48:57
And all London
will be dreamy and beautiful.

:49:02
And in the elegant melancholy
of twilight,

:49:05
as the candles flutter
and make your eyes dance,

:49:09
he will tell you he loves you.
:49:11
And you will tell him
you have always loved him.

:49:17
Where am I?
:49:20
Yes, life can be wonderful
if you're not afraid of it.

:49:25
All it needs is courage, imagination
:49:32
and a little dough.
:49:37
Now what's the matter?
:49:38
I'll never dance again!
I'm a cripple.

:49:41
- Pure hysteria! It's in your mind.
- It isn't true.

:49:44
- Otherwise you'd fight!
- What is there to fight for?

:49:46
Ah, you see? You admit it.
:49:49
What is there to fight for?
Everything!

:49:51
Life itself! Isn't that enough?
:49:53
To be lived, suffered, enjoyed!
What is there to fight for?

:49:58
Life is a beautiful,
magnificent thing.
