THERE HE GOES ANOTHER FRIEND,
ANOTHER LIFE HAS REACHED ITS END,
ANOTHER SOUL IS BORN.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO HEAL
A BATTERED HEART THAT DOESN'T FEEL,
IT'S STRONG ENOUGH TO MEND?
WE FALL IN LOVE AND HOPE THAT IT WILL LAST.
WE FALL IN LOVE AND HOPE-
WE FALL IN LOVE...

Richard
EXCUSE ME...
DIDN'T I SEE YOU ON THE STEPS OF ST. JAMES?

David
MAYBE YOU DID. YOUR NAME IS-

Richard
RICHARD.
AND DIDN'T I SEE YOU AT
STEPHEN'S FUNERAL?


David
MAYBE YOU DID. MY NAME IS DAVID.

Richard
AND DIDN'T YOU EULOGIZE JOEY DAVIS?

David
LOOK I'M SORRY BUT I DON'T REMEMBER-

Richard
WELL, THAT'S OKAY CAUSE I REMEMBER YOU.

David
HOW WELL DID YOU KNOW MY LOVER TOMMY?

Richard
TOMMY AND I GO WAY, WAY BACK.

David
HOW FAR BACK?

Richard
BOTH OF US WAITED ON TABLES AT HOULIHAN'S.

David
TOMMY AND I HAD BEEN LIVING TOGETHER
FOR OVER A YEAR.

Richard
TOMMY AND I LOST TOUCH.
I'M SORRY YOU LOST YOUR LOVER.

David
LATELY IT SEEMS LIKE I'M LOSING AND LOSING.
I'M NOT LOSING AT LOVE,
I'M JUST LOSING THE LOVERS.
AND SOMETIMES I FEEL
LIKE I'M READY TO SCREAM,
IT'S LIKE I'M SO FUCKIN' WIRED
I WAKE UP AND WONDER
“GOD, WHEN IS IT GONNA BE ME?
WHEN ARE YOU GONNA TAKE ME?”
AND MY SOUL IS SO NUMB,
CAUSE I KEEP IT INSIDE AND REMAIN,
MAINTAINING A BODY
THAT DOESN'T REMEMBER MY NAME.
IT'S JUST A MATTER OF TIME
BEFORE ALL OF US DIE,
ONE WAY OR ANOTHER-

Richard
IT'S GONNA GET YOU
GETCHA-
GETCHA-
GETCHA-

David
HIS FAMILY ASKED ME FOR A LIST OF HIS FRIENDS.
I SAID "THE ONES WHO ARE LIVING OR THE
ONES WHO ARE DEAD?"


Richard
TELL ME WHICH LIST IS LONGER?

David
CHECK BACK WITH ME TOMORROW.

Richard
I'D LIKE THAT VERY MUCH.
WE COULD MEET AND HAVE COFFEE-
WE COULD MEET AND JUST CRY-
THAT WOULD BE ALRIGHT TOO.

David
THANK YOU, SO MUCH.

Richard
THANK ME FOR WHAT? I'LL SEE YOU AROUND.

David
I'LL SEE YOU AGAIN.

Richard
YEAH, MAYBE I'LL SPOT YOU ON
THE STEPS OF ST. PAUL'S-

David
OR ON THE STEPS OF ST. SOMEONE-

Richard
IN THE BACK OF BETH EL-

David
OR IN SOMEBODY'S YARD.

Richard
HAVE YOU SEEN THE INSIDE OF
OUR MOTHER OF SORROWS?

David
I'M NOT SURE-

Richard
STAINED GLASS TO DIE FOR.

David
MAYBE I HAVE-

Richard
IF YOU HAVEN'T YOU WILL.

David
AND ISN'T IT A SHAME THAT WE NEVER SPOKE
ON THE STEPS OF ST. JAMES?

Richard
AND JUST TO THINK, ALL THIS TIME
WE COULD HAVE BEEN FRIENDS.
