ADEN
We are not at all alike. We have our differences. May I be blunt? ADRIANA Be blunt. By all means. ADEN I think perhaps it looks like rain ADRIANA The sky gets bluer by the hour ADEN The water falls in little drops ADRIANA That’s why it’s called a sun shower ADEN Ah, now it stops ADRIANA You were about to be blunt? ADEN If I say rain, then you sun. If I say yes, then you say no. It seems before we start, we’re done. We even argue at “hello” If I say, share with me This small umbrella ADRIANA I say who cares if we get wet? ADEN We are as different as the Morning and the night ADRIANA No, we’re as different as the Winter and the spring ADEN We always seem to fight ADRIANA We disagree on everything ADEN And yet… You make me smile, You make me laugh, You make me care. How can I explain? Inside my heart I feel a pain When you’re not there. Though we’re not at all alike, You make me feel alive. If we had that in common, That one small thing in common, Love could be like a small umbrella, In the rain. When people discover passion, They’ve come upon something rare. This fervor they have in common, Will shelter them anywhere. Though the rest may be rough, With such passion to share, I think we have more than enough- Enough to make a marriage, If we dare. ADRIANA You are proposing? ADEN No. Yes! Yes! I do not mean today. Or tomorrow, or even next month. In a year maybe, two years even. I am a patient man. ADRIANA I won’t be sweet, won’t be demure ADEN This I prefer, this I adore ADRIANA I’ll speak my mind, you can be sure ADEN I’ll be enchanted to the core. ADRIANA If I say, let me share your Small umbrella. ADEN I’ll say, who cares if we get wet? ADRIANA We’ll be as different as a Husband and a wife ADEN No, we’ll be as different as a Woman and a man ADRIANA We’ll fight our way through life. ADEN We’ll disagree the best we can. ADRIANA And yet… BOTH You make me smile, You make me laugh, You make me care. How can I explain? Inside my heart I feel a pain When you’re not there. Though we’re not at all alike, You make me feel alive. ADRIANA Yes, we have that in common ADEN That one small thing in common BOTH Our love is like a small umbrella In the rain |
