KIM
Last night I watched him sleeping
My body pressed to him
And then he started speaking
The name I heard him speak...was Kim
Yes I know that this was years ago
But when moonlight fills my room I know
You are here... still

I still
I still believe
You will return
I know you will
My heart
Against all odds
Holds still

Yes, still
I still believe
I know as long as I can keep believing, I'll live
I'll live
Love cannot die
You will return
You will return
And I alone know why

(in a bedroom on the other side of the world, in America. A woman is
Sitting beside CHRIS who is sleeping. She is ELLEN, CHRIS' s wife)

ELLEN
Last night I watched you sleeping
Once more, the nightmare came
I heard you cry out something
A word that sounded like... a name
And it hurts me more than I can bear
Knowing part of you I'll never share
Never know

But still
I still believe
The time will come
When nothing keeps us apart
My heart, forever more
Holds still

(CHRIS wakes up from his sleep with a cry. ELLEN takes him in her
Arms and calms him)

ELLEN
It' s all over, I' m here
There is nothing to fear
Chris, what' s haunting you?
Won' t you let me inside
What you so want to hide!
I need you too!

KIM ELLEN
For still I will hold you all night, I will make
[it all right
I still believe you are safe with me
As long as I and I wish you could tell what you don't
[want to tell
Can keep believing, I'll live what your hell must be

I'll live you can sleep now
You will return you can cry now
And I know why I'm your wife now
I'm yours for life
Until we die until we die

(In America, CHRIS holds ELLEN; in Vietnam, KIM is alone in
Her room.)
