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.)
