<br>

Bobby<br>

Did you mean what you said? About everyone having a heart?<br>

<br>

Hope<br>

Well, sure I did. Do you think you'd be feeling as bad as you do if you<br>

didn't have a heart?<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

I don't know. I spupose not.<br>

<br>

Hope<br>

Of course you wouldn't. Because then you'd be dead.<br>

<br>

When darkness surrounds you<br>

And you lose your way<br>

You have your own compass<br>

That turns night to day<br>

And it's even with you<br>

Before you depart<br>

Be still, hear it beating<br>

It's leading you<br>

Follow your heart<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

Follow my heart? But to where?<br>

<br>

Hope<br>

To wherever your heart tells you to go.<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

Even...there?<br>

<br>

Hope<br>

Even to the clouds, if that's what your heart commands. What's it saying<br>

now?<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

I don't know. I don't know how to listen to my heart.<br>

<br>

Hope<br>

You have to listen carefully. Here, let me try.<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

Do you -<br>

<br>

Hope<br>

Ssshhh! Ah, there it is. It's saying:<br>

<br>

We all want a world<br>

Filled with peace and joy<br>

With plenty of water<br>

For each girl and boy<br>

That bright, shining world<br>

Is just waiting to start<br>

No meanness or sorrow<br>

Just cleanness tomorrow<br>

If only you follow your heart<br>

<br>

You see there, Bobby. Even your heart knows you should follow your heart.<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

"Peace and joy", "plenty of water"<br>

I guess I do want those things<br>

<br>

Hope<br>

There's something else your heart was saying. Maybe something I<br>

shouldn't have heard.<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

There was?<br>

<br>

Hope<br>

I think so. It was barely audible but I definitely heard something.<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

Well? What was it?<br>

<br>

Hope<br>

Let me try again, maybe I can make it out this time.<br>

<br>

There is is. So faint...it's saying:<br>

<br>

Follow, into the open air<br>

Far from squalor and noise<br>

Follow, someone is waiting there<br>

Someone who shares all your hopes<br>

And your joys<br>

<br>

"Someone is waiting there"? Why, my heart was saying those exact words<br>

just the other day.<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

It was?<br>

<br>

Hope<br>

Sure it was. "Squalor and Noise", "Hopes and Joys". It was telling me<br>

about all those things.<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

I didn't know two hearts could speak as one.<br>

<br>

Hope<br>

I didn't either. Until now. Here, listen.<br>

<br>

Bobby<br>

Someday I'll meet someone<br>

Whose heart joines with mine<br>

Aortas and arteries all intertwined<br>

They'll beat so much stronger<br>

Than they could apart<br>

Eight chambers of muscle to hustle<br>

The love in our heart<br>

<br>

Bobby and Hope<br>

Love is kind and considerate<br>

Love is peaceful and fair<br>

Love can creep up so suddenly<br>

When you least think of it<br>

Your love is there<br>

<br>

We all want a world<br>

Filled with peace and with joy<br>

With plenty of justice<br>

For each girl and boy<br>

That bright shining world<br>

Is just waiting to start<br>

No anger or badness<br>

Just laughter and gladness<br>

If only I follow your heart<br>

<br>
