1:47:03
All you've gotta do
is say the right words.

1:47:06
I don't know if I have the right words,
that's why it took me so long to get here.

1:47:13
You see, the world looks so dirty
to me when I'm not drinking.

1:47:16
Remember Fisherman's Wharf?
The water when you look too close?

1:47:20
That's the way the world looks
when I'm not drinking.

1:47:23
I don't think I could ever stop drinking
completely, not like you.

1:47:26
- You could¡
- If I really wanted to?

1:47:28
Well, I don't. I know that now.
1:47:31
I want things to look prettier
than they are.

1:47:35
But I know I could be all right,
if you'd help me. I know I could.

1:47:39
If we were together and things
were like they used to be...

1:47:42
...and I wasn't so nervous.
1:47:45
I need to be loved. I get so lonely
from not being loved I can't stand it.

1:47:49
I love you.
1:47:51
I'm afraid of you.
1:47:52
I'm an alcoholic, I can't take a drink.
I'm afraid of what we'd do.

1:47:56
If you'd just say that you'd try.
1:47:58
But I can't face the idea
of never having another drink.

1:48:01
- Just one day at a time.
- I can't. I can't. I can't¡

1:48:05
Doesn't it impress you that I have been
sober for almost a year and I'm happy?

1:48:09
I'm working steady.
I feel great.

1:48:11
Debbie and I are living in a decent
place again, all because I'm sober.

1:48:15
Yes.
1:48:16
- There's plenty of room.
- You're strong. I know you can help me.

1:48:20
- If we only had it back like it was.
- Back like it-?

1:48:23
Do you remember how it really was?
1:48:25
You and me and booze.
A threesome, do you remember?

1:48:28
- Not that it wasn't great.
- We can have it back that way again, if...

1:48:32
If I'll drink with you. But I'm not
gonna drink with you. It's finished¡

1:48:36
I wouldn't ask you to drink with me.
I'd control myself.

1:48:39
You can't control yourself,
you're an alcoholic, the same as I am.

1:48:43
No, no.
1:48:44
You and I were a couple of drunks
on the sea of booze, and the boat sank.

1:48:48
I got ahold of something that kept me
from going under. I'm not letting go.

1:48:52
Not for you, not for anyone.
1:48:54
If you want to grab on, grab on.
1:48:57
But there's just room for you and me,
no threesome.
