out for breath fresh air
just came to see my lizzie
you're talking to your car then
well certainly not myself
alfa romeo
spider veloce
do you mind if i sit in it
not at all
why lizzy
uh
in honor of a friend
a girlfriend
no
just a friend
well then aren't you going to introduce
us
sure
by taking you for a ride
lizzie won't mind having a menage a
trois with me instead of jackie
i think she'll enjoy it even more
[Music]
[Applause]
uh
here
put this on
thanks
i'm colder in my legs actually
do you always drive that fast
i've driven faster
made living from it
racing cars
no
testing them
oh
what kind of cars did you test
ferrari lamborghini and how does lizzie
compare to those other cars
well as a machine
which doesn't come close to the awesome
power of those high performance beauties
but as a lover
she's in a class of her own
is there double entendre here are you
really only talking about a car
what do you think
you've unleashed my curiosity
why don't you tell me about lizzy the
lover
from the moment you get inside of her
you turn her on
she succumbs to you gently
trembling to touch
and then
when you shift her into gear
the clutch pedal
sliding in
and out of her
she moves steadily
purring with a soft growl
happy to be under your control
at that point
she invokes you
she entices you to take her to a speed
level of euphoric freedom
and then she essentially caresses the
road and
sways you passionately
the heat of her body and the cool of the
breeze engulf you
you become one with her in perfect
ecstasy
jesus mary and joseph you weren't joking
about a menage a trois
i don't think i'll be needing this
anymore my legs are warm enough
thank you very much
i take it this was your first menage a
trois
with the car anyway

[Music]

[Music]

can you
around easter was the first time

those magazines it's gonna want to come
out to play
it's been getting worse lately
worse
yeah
when it gets like this it's so hard it
hurts
i've been meaning to ask uncle matt
is this okay for 12 oh jesus um lad
that's okay for 35.
oh you really think so
yeah
yeah i really think so
you get that thing back in its cage now
it belongs
i spoke to mr bergshard today
he thinks you're a very talented swimmer
olympic caliber is what he said
he wants to train you
this could be your shot at the canadian
olympic team son
i know
scary
we had no idea you were that good honey
neither did i
coleman there's money in this for you
all the way through
your mother's right
they pay a room and board travel
expenses all expenses they've even got a
school right there at the training camp
could you give me some more of that
beauty too rich for use for earth too
dear
so shows the snowy dove trooping with
crows as younger lady over her fellow
shows
her measure done i'll watch her place of
stand
and touching hers make blessed my rude
hand
did my heart love till now
for swear at
sight for i near saw true beauty till
this night
coleman who is romeo showering with
passionate compliments and why is he in
such an emotional delirium
uh are you with us mr hawkins
miss i would like to answer that
question
welcome back coleman you may want to pay
attention i think you could learn a lot
from someone like romeo
you may answer the question alexa
romeo's passion is for juliet and not
roslyn the girl he thought he was in
love with
although romeo crashed the capulets
party to get to roseland
as soon as he saw juliet he fell madly
in love with her
coming to the realization that he'd
never really been in love before
or seen true beauty until he laid eyes
on julia
very good miss dumont
you might want to share your notes with
coleman i think you'll have better luck
keeping his attention than i
do your homework is to read for your
bromine juliet to discuss in tomorrow's
class feel like going over today's
lesson now
i'd like to but i gotta go meet a friend
oh
your girlfriend
no i don't have a girlfriend good
i mean maybe some other time then
yeah some other time
aren't you going to ask me for my number
yeah okay sure
it's my cell phone
there
dude never seen two guys kissed before
no have you yeah sure
hey you know where the word [ __ ] comes
from
oh but you do right yeah it comes from
the british navy in like the 1800s
british navy invented [ __ ]
sure wasn't the french navy they didn't
invent [ __ ] stupid they invented the
word
why would they invent the word they
didn't do any [ __ ] although ships
didn't have any women oh contrary mouse
press you're [ __ ] the cabin boys
only you but it wasn't allowed it was
illegal if a sailor was caught he was
flogged and then kicked out you know
discharged and they stamped ftck on his
files his papers it stood for for
unlawful carnal knowledge if you see k
[ __ ]
this is real yeah if people saw their
files they weren't allowed jobs that's
where the expression your [ __ ] comes
from

[Music]

well with what's on your mind you got
that look on your ugly little face

dangerous age that's when it all begins
what begins
a lifetime of pain and frustration i
god's punishment for lost and after
women

you'd think she was queen of the land
[Music]
bye
[Music]

[Music]
[Music]
hi
good evening
oh birth it's cold in here
oh wait a minute
it's my mother
you look much better when you smile mom
oh go ahead have your fun i'm just
teasing you
you entertain her while i go change
i'll just be a minute
all right
so matt
what are you
protestant or catholic
neither
that's too bad
at least if you're protestant out of a
reason to hate you
oh
you really don't like me too much do you
matter this is not about you or me
this is about mary and her future
why what about her future
you can't be part of it for mary's sake
it makes you think i have any plans to
be a part of it
it's not your plans i'm worried about
it's hers
and what are our plans
not to return to ireland with me so that
she can be with you
well i didn't ask her to stay you didn't
ask her not to
look matchy's infatuated with you and
she thinks it's love she's a grown woman
irene
she's all that i've got
and i didn't raise her up to throw her
life away emma likes you
so um
tell me then
what are uh
what are the likes of me
a man who's self-centered and selfish
you hardly know me i mean how can you i
know enough
enough to know the kind of man that you
are you see i married one mary's father
and that gives you the right to judge me
no
but the love i have for my daughter does
and i'll be damned if i let her make the
same mistake i did
but matt
erie's not for you she doesn't belong in
your world
she has a life in ireland
good position
friends and a young well-to-do fellow
that loves her and wants to marry her i
mean what can you offer her matt what
i'm ready
well
i can see you've been talking about me
yeah you're
your mother was telling me you have a
boyfriend back home
oh
which reminds me sean called this
afternoon
he says he misses you
sean's a dear friend
we teach at the same school
my mother likes to wish out loud
i love you ma'am but you're going to
have to learn to stay out of my affairs
when were you planning on telling me
you're not going back
it was supposed to be a surprise
my mother has a way of spoiling things
for me
she's just worried about you
i can take care of myself
i'm a big girl now
haven't you noticed
look mac
i know how she feels about you it's just
she doesn't understand you and that
makes her afraid of you
it's not me your mother's afraid of
she's afraid of losing you
and
i think you should go back with her
i can't
why not
it would break your heart
[Music]
reality
down
are you heartbroken over some girl
just like uncle matt
you've written a book
just asking damn you're always asking
sorry
i don't mean to be so nosy yeah but you
just can't help it huh
we learn by asking questions
well learn this
there's nothing like a good woman
that always reminds me mac's wife cause
she was nothing like a good woman either
were you really married sure was
but it didn't last six
months my fault though
i married so i could forget the woman i
was in love with
who unfortunately
didn't love me
so i guess you uncle matt do have
something in common after all
how's that
you both never married the woman you
loved
well
i guess you're right
oh no there's that scotland [ __ ] yard
look on your face again
tell me about mary mclaughlin
that's something you should take up with
your uncle for some reason he doesn't
want to talk about her
what do you want to know
was she beautiful
yeah she was very beautiful
was the woman you loved as beautiful as
mary
she was every inch just beautiful
made my heart skip a beat every time i
look better
[Music]
i just thought i'd stop by see how
you're doing
sorry you have to see me like this
you'll have to apologize

he always does but where does he go
what does he do
i don't know he just
leaves without saying a word

other times for weeks or months at a
time
i thought he was happy being with me i
guess i was wrong

happened to him

when you appear in the silent darkness
of my room

ever meet mary mclaughlin
why do you ask that
i often dream about her
how do you know what she looks like
i have her picture
your uncle gave you her picture
it wasn't a book he gave me
the strange thing is that
i've dreamt of her before i'd ever seen
her picture
maybe uncle matt described her one time
or another and maybe you're just too
young to remember
i guess
maybe
did you know her
um
we met her a few times yeah
she was uh
she's a very
beautiful bright girl
totally in love with your uncle mm-hmm
why did she leave him
well that's something you're gonna have
to ask your uncle matt about
yeah

matt
you're just drunk crazy
i'll be back before you know it
come on
did you
ask mary to forget
you know that
you didn't deserve mary
[Music]
what did you want to see me about
is it about matt
no it's not
i want to ask you to marry me mary
i want to make everything right for you
no no please
listen to all i have to say before you
answer me
i've loved you from the first moment i
saw you mary
i know you're in love with mad
but he's not here for you
to take care of you now that you must
need him
i'm here for you mary
i'm here for you and the child you're
carrying i know it's matt's child but i
will love it as if it was my own i
promise
mary mclaughlin
will you marry me
[Music]
i'm really flattered
but it would be unfair to you for me to
accept
i know you don't love me the same way
love matt and i'm willing to accept that
maybe
someday you could learn to love me
and what about matt
what has mad ever done for you upset
bringing you sadness and pain
how could you love a man like that
you just wouldn't know how to love any
other man
coffee for you
thanks
jesus
this coffee would wake the dead
you know what bob oh
i thought i
put the finishing touches on the bike
finally take her out
listen uh
you were right
um about what you said last night
what do you mean
i didn't deserve mary and she would have
been better off if she loved you instead
of me nonsense
what i said last night i uh
i set out of anger
anger can sometimes make a man
irrational
matt
i want to tell you that mary did forgive
you
i just never told you because
i wanted you to pay for what you did to
her
so she's forgiven me huh
even after all the pain i caused her
she's
yeah she has
and it's uh
time you started forgiving yourself too
you gotta leave the past behind
move on
for coleman's sake
you do love him don't you
more than anything in the world
am i late for practice
you're going back home
are you kicking me off the team
no
no that that's not why coleman

of our dearly departed
matthews
[Music]
peace
[Music]
you
[Music]
my dear son it is with a heavy heart
that i write you this letter
whereas your life is about to begin
seems mine is ready to end and i will
not be there to love and care for you as
a mother
however
i want you to know that i will always be
with you in spirit
forever present with my love
i'm sure by now margaret and wendell
have explained how you came to be their
adopted son
i hope this knowledge will help you
understand who you really are
however
do not use this truth to diminish the
love you have for your adopted parents
for they are the ones that have raised
you and have given you the love that you
have depended on every day of your life
as for your father
matt hawkins
you should know that it was my wish that
he did not reveal himself as your father
until you read this letter
matt and i shared a great love together
and you are made of that love
my darling son
now i must say goodbye to you but i
leave you with these parting words
corbin
i love you with all of my heart and soul
know that you can count on that love
that my prayers will be with you every
step of your journey
through your life
look for me in your dreams
your loving mother

to touch the sky
and he carried him away

alfa romeo
spider veloce
do you mind if i sit in it
not at all
why lizzy
uh
in honor of a friend
a girlfriend
no
just a friend
well then aren't you going to introduce

trois with me instead of jackie
i think she'll enjoy it even more
[Music]
[Applause]
uh
here
put this on
thanks
i'm colder in my legs actually
do you always drive that fast
i've driven faster
made living from it
racing cars
no
testing them
oh
what kind of cars did you test
ferrari lamborghini and how does lizzie
compare to those other cars
well as a machine
which doesn't come close to the awesome
power of those high performance beauties
but as a lover
she's in a class of her own
is there double entendre here are you
really only talking about a car
what do you think
you've unleashed my curiosity
why don't you tell me about lizzy the
lover
from the moment you get inside of her
you turn her on
she succumbs to you gently
trembling to touch
and then
when you shift her into gear
the clutch pedal
sliding in
and out of her
she moves steadily
purring with a soft growl
happy to be under your control
at that point
she invokes you
she entices you to take her to a speed
level of euphoric freedom
and then she essentially caresses the
road and
sways you passionately
the heat of her body and the cool of the
breeze engulf you
you become one with her in perfect
ecstasy
jesus mary and joseph you weren't joking
about a menage a trois
i don't think i'll be needing this
anymore my legs are warm enough
thank you very much
i take it this was your first menage a
trois
with the car anyway

when it gets like this it's so hard it
hurts
i've been meaning to ask uncle matt
is this okay for 12 oh jesus um lad
that's okay for 35.
oh you really think so
yeah
yeah i really think so
you get that thing back in its cage now
it belongs
i spoke to mr bergshard today
he thinks you're a very talented swimmer
olympic caliber is what he said
he wants to train you
this could be your shot at the canadian
olympic team son
i know
scary
we had no idea you were that good honey
neither did i
coleman there's money in this for you
all the way through
your mother's right
they pay a room and board travel
expenses all expenses they've even got a
school right there at the training camp
could you give me some more of that
beauty too rich for use for earth too
dear
so shows the snowy dove trooping with
crows as younger lady over her fellow
shows
her measure done i'll watch her place of
stand
and touching hers make blessed my rude
hand
did my heart love till now
for swear at
sight for i near saw true beauty till
this night
coleman who is romeo showering with
passionate compliments and why is he in
such an emotional delirium
uh are you with us mr hawkins
miss i would like to answer that
question
welcome back coleman you may want to pay
attention i think you could learn a lot
from someone like romeo
you may answer the question alexa
romeo's passion is for juliet and not
roslyn the girl he thought he was in
love with
although romeo crashed the capulets
party to get to roseland
as soon as he saw juliet he fell madly
in love with her
coming to the realization that he'd
never really been in love before
or seen true beauty until he laid eyes
on julia
very good miss dumont
you might want to share your notes with
coleman i think you'll have better luck
keeping his attention than i
do your homework is to read for your
bromine juliet to discuss in tomorrow's
class feel like going over today's
lesson now
i'd like to but i gotta go meet a friend
oh
your girlfriend
no i don't have a girlfriend good
i mean maybe some other time then

you look much better when you smile mom
oh go ahead have your fun i'm just
teasing you
you entertain her while i go change
i'll just be a minute
all right
so matt
what are you
protestant or catholic
neither
that's too bad
at least if you're protestant out of a
reason to hate you
oh
you really don't like me too much do you
matter this is not about you or me
this is about mary and her future
why what about her future
you can't be part of it for mary's sake
it makes you think i have any plans to
be a part of it
it's not your plans i'm worried about
it's hers
and what are our plans
not to return to ireland with me so that
she can be with you
well i didn't ask her to stay you didn't
ask her not to
look matchy's infatuated with you and
she thinks it's love she's a grown woman
irene
she's all that i've got
and i didn't raise her up to throw her
life away emma likes you
so um
tell me then
what are uh
what are the likes of me
a man who's self-centered and selfish
you hardly know me i mean how can you i
know enough
enough to know the kind of man that you
are you see i married one mary's father
and that gives you the right to judge me
no
but the love i have for my daughter does
and i'll be damned if i let her make the
same mistake i did
but matt
erie's not for you she doesn't belong in
your world
she has a life in ireland
good position
friends and a young well-to-do fellow
that loves her and wants to marry her i
mean what can you offer her matt what
i'm ready
well
i can see you've been talking about me
yeah you're
your mother was telling me you have a
boyfriend back home
oh
which reminds me sean called this
afternoon
he says he misses you
sean's a dear friend
we teach at the same school
my mother likes to wish out loud
i love you ma'am but you're going to
have to learn to stay out of my affairs
when were you planning on telling me
you're not going back
it was supposed to be a surprise
my mother has a way of spoiling things
for me
she's just worried about you
i can take care of myself
i'm a big girl now
haven't you noticed
look mac
i know how she feels about you it's just
she doesn't understand you and that
makes her afraid of you
it's not me your mother's afraid of
she's afraid of losing you
and
i think you should go back with her
i can't
why not
it would break your heart
[Music]
reality
down
are you heartbroken over some girl
just like uncle matt
you've written a book
just asking damn you're always asking
sorry
i don't mean to be so nosy yeah but you
just can't help it huh
we learn by asking questions
well learn this
there's nothing like a good woman
that always reminds me mac's wife cause
she was nothing like a good woman either
were you really married sure was
but it didn't last six
months my fault though
i married so i could forget the woman i
was in love with
who unfortunately
didn't love me
so i guess you uncle matt do have
something in common after all
how's that
you both never married the woman you
loved
well
i guess you're right
oh no there's that scotland [ __ ] yard
look on your face again
tell me about mary mclaughlin
that's something you should take up with
your uncle for some reason he doesn't
want to talk about her
what do you want to know
was she beautiful
yeah she was very beautiful
was the woman you loved as beautiful as
mary
she was every inch just beautiful
made my heart skip a beat every time i
look better
[Music]
i just thought i'd stop by see how
you're doing
sorry you have to see me like this
you'll have to apologize

you need to worry mary
[Music]
matt will come back
he always does but where does he go
what does he do
i don't know he just
leaves without saying a word
sometimes for days
other times for weeks or months at a
time
i thought he was happy being with me i
guess i was wrong
nonsense

happened to him
and why has he run away from me

everywhere i go
i feel so out of place
everywhere i turn i see your face
when you appear in the silent darkness
of my room
just like a shadow south of the moon
[Music]
sometimes i feel as if i really had
enough
[Music]
i wanna break down and cry instead of
acting tough
i'm hanging on
[Music]
it's just driving me mad
[Music]
or if i'm wrong
all i know
is i don't belong
every song i ever wrote sounds out of
tone
lost in a dream

ever meet mary mclaughlin
why do you ask that
i often dream about her
how do you know what she looks like
i have her picture
your uncle gave you her picture
it wasn't a book he gave me
the strange thing is that
i've dreamt of her before i'd ever seen
her picture
maybe uncle matt described her one time
or another and maybe you're just too
young to remember
i guess
maybe
did you know her
um
we met her a few times yeah
she was uh
she's a very
beautiful bright girl
totally in love with your uncle mm-hmm
why did she leave him
well that's something you're gonna have
to ask your uncle matt about
yeah
meantime
you gotta catch a flight
so let's go get your stuff okay
[Music]

[Music]
love was once so full

i've loved you from the first moment i
saw you mary
i know you're in love with mad

need him
i'm here for you mary

carrying i know it's matt's child but i
will love it as if it was my own i

mary mclaughlin
will you marry me

i'm really flattered
but it would be unfair to you for me to
accept
i know you don't love me the same way
love matt and i'm willing to accept that
maybe
someday you could learn to love me
and what about matt
what has mad ever done for you upset
bringing you sadness and pain
how could you love a man like that
you just wouldn't know how to love any
other man
coffee for you
thanks
jesus
this coffee would wake the dead
you know what bob oh
i thought i
put the finishing touches on the bike
finally take her out
listen uh
you were right
um about what you said last night
what do you mean
i didn't deserve mary and she would have
been better off if she loved you instead
of me nonsense
what i said last night i uh
i set out of anger
anger can sometimes make a man
irrational
matt
i want to tell you that mary did forgive
you
i just never told you because
i wanted you to pay for what you did to
her
so she's forgiven me huh
even after all the pain i caused her
she's
yeah she has
and it's uh
time you started forgiving yourself too
you gotta leave the past behind
move on
for coleman's sake
you do love him don't you
more than anything in the world
am i late for practice
you're going back home
are you kicking me off the team
no
no that that's not why coleman

i don't know how to tell you this kid

oh heavenly father
we are gathered here today
to entrust you with the soul
of our dearly departed
matthews
[Music]
peace
[Music]
you
[Music]
my dear son it is with a heavy heart
that i write you this letter
whereas your life is about to begin
seems mine is ready to end and i will
not be there to love and care for you as
a mother
however
i want you to know that i will always be
with you in spirit
forever present with my love
i'm sure by now margaret and wendell
have explained how you came to be their
adopted son
i hope this knowledge will help you
understand who you really are
however
do not use this truth to diminish the
love you have for your adopted parents
for they are the ones that have raised
you and have given you the love that you
have depended on every day of your life
as for your father
matt hawkins
you should know that it was my wish that
he did not reveal himself as your father
until you read this letter
matt and i shared a great love together
and you are made of that love
my darling son
now i must say goodbye to you but i
leave you with these parting words
corbin
i love you with all of my heart and soul
know that you can count on that love
that my prayers will be with you every
step of your journey
through your life
look for me in your dreams
your loving mother
mary mcluck

is
[Music]
and now i'm lost
i'm all alone
south of the moon
[Music]
i'm all alone
[Music]
there's nothing left for me to say
left for me to do
i long for yesterday
when my world was filled with you
[Music]
there's nothing left for me to dream
[Music]
without your love to light my sky
[Music]
[Music]
is changed
the only thing to remind me is your sad
sad eyes
[Music]
there was a boy
he was a young boy
he took his shirt off in the rain
[Music]
he'd reach for the raindrops
that fell through the air
[Music]
everyone
[Music]
would is
then one day
he climbed so hard
to touch the sky
and he carried him away
[Music]
i don't know
where am i
or where i'm bound
but it don't matter cause you're not
around
[Music]
every dream i've ever had faded too soon
now i'm lost south of the moon
[Music]
everywhere i go
i feel so out of place
everywhere i turn i see your face
when you appear in the silent darkness
of my room
just like a shadow south of the moon
[Music]
sometimes i feel as if i really had
enough
[Music]
i wanna break down and cry instead of
acting tough
i'm hanging on by a thread feeling so
emotionally dead
or
brokenhearted and sad
i miss you so
it's just driving me mad
i don't know
if i'm right or if i'm wrong
all i know
is i don't belong
every song i ever wrote sounds out of
tone
lost in a dream southern
[Music]
i'm all alone
south of the moon
[Music]
you
