This is a handwritten script from the video linked below. I liked it so much that I felt a need to write it down in words.
So lets start with Sarah and Phil getting onto the stage and start describing the emotion we think we all are so familiar with and in reality yet so oblivious to .. LOVE !!!
Sarah & Phil together : I knew exactly what love looked like …….
in seventh grade
Sarah : Even though I hadn’t met love yet , if love had wondered into my home room I would have recognised him at first glance
Love wore a hemp necklace.
Phil : I would have recognised her at first glance , love wore a tight french braid
Sarah : Love played acoustic guitar and knew all my favourite beatle songs
Phil : Love wasn’t afraid to ride the bus with me
Sarah & Phil together : And I knew
Sarah : I just must be searching in the wrong classroom
Phil : Just must be checking the wrong hallway , she was there I was sure of it
Sarah : If only I could find him
Sarah & Phil together : But when love finally showed up
Phil : She had a bowl cut
Sarah : She wore the same clothes every day for a week
Phil : Love hated the bus
Sarah : Love didn’t know anything about the beatles
Sarah & Phil together : And instead
Phil : Every time I tried to kiss love
Sarah & Phil together : Our teeth got in the way
Sarah : Love became the reason I lied to my parents.
Phil : I am going to ben’s house
Sarah : Love had terrible rhythm on the dance floor but made sure we never missed a slow song
Phil : Love waited by the phone because she knew if her father picked up it would be like
Sarah : Hello..Hello.. I guess they hang up.
Phil : And love grew
Sarah : Stretched like a trampoline ,
Phil : Love changed
Sarah : Love disappeared slowly , like baby teeth , losing parts of me I thought I needed
Phil : Love vanished like an amateur magician , everyone could see the trap door but me
Sarah : Like a flat tyre , there were other places I had planned on going
Sarah & Phil together : But my plans didn’t matter
Sarah : Love stayed away for years and when love finally reappeared, I barely recognised him
Phil : Love smelled different now , had darker eyes
Sarah : A broader back , love came with freckles I didn’t recognise
Phil : new birth marks , a softer voice
Sarah : There were new sleeping patterns
Phil : New favourite books
Sarah : Love had songs that reminded him of someone else
Phil : Songs that love didn’t like to listen to
Sarah & Phil together : so did I
Phil : But we found a park bench that fit us perfectly
Sarah : We found jokes that make us laugh
Phil : And now love makes me fresh home made chocolate chip cookies
Sarah : But love will probably finish most of them for a midnight snack
Phil : Love looks great in lingerie but still likes to wear her retainer
Sarah : Love is terrible driver but a great navigator
Phil : Love knows where she is going , it just might take her two hours longer than she had planned
Sarah : Love is messier now
Phil : Not as simple
Sarah : Love uses the word boobs in front of my parents
Phil : Love chews too loud
Sarah : Love leaves the cap off the toothpaste
Phil : Love uses smiley faces in her text messages
Sarah : and turns out
Sarah & Phil together : Love shitssss….
Sarah : But love also cries , and love will tell you , you are beautiful
Phil : And mean it
Sarah : over and over again
Phil : You are beautiful
Sarah : When you first wake up
Phil : You are beautiful
Sarah : When you just been crying
Phil : You are beautiful
Sarah : When you don’t wanna hear it
Phil : You are beautiful
Sarah : When you don’t believe it
Phil : You are beautiful
Sarah : When nobody else will tell you
Phil : You are beautiful
Sarah : Love still thinks
Phil : …………………..silence
Sarah : You are beautiful
Phil : But love is not perfect and will sometimes forget
Sarah : When you need to hear it the most
Sarah & Phil together : You are beautiful
Sarah : Do not forget this
Phil : Love is not who you were expecting , Love is not what you can predict
Sarah : May be love is in NYC already asleep , you are in california , australia , wide awake , may be love is always in the wrong timezone.
Phil : May be love is not ready for you , May be you are not ready for love
Sarah : May be love just isn’t the marrying type
Phil : May be next time you see love is 20 years after the divorce, love looks older now but just as beautiful as you remember
Sarah : May be love is only there for a month
Phil : May be love is there for every firework , every birthday party , every hospital visit
Sarah : May be love stays
Phil : May be love can’t
Sarah & Phil together : May be love shouldn’t
Phil : Love arrives when exactly love is supposed to , Love leaves exactly when love must
Sarah : when love arrives say
Sarah & Phil together : Welcome , make yourself comfortable
Phil : When love leaves , ask her to leave the door open behind her
Sarah : Turn off the music , listen to the quiet
Phil : Whisper
Sarah & Phil together : Thank you for stopping by !!!
