“The Will I fell in love with, she almost said."And be Will," she finished instead. "Or I shall hit you with my umbrella.”

“Single Mind:
If I love you with all my heart, she said, what will you give me? & then she stopped & said I didn't have to answer that because she was going to do it anyway.”

“She said, "I wanna learn a love song full of happy things."
She said, "I wanna learn a love song; won't you let me hear you sing?"
She said, "I wanna learn a love song, I wanna hear you play."
She said, "I wanna learn a love song before you go away."”

“A comedy is just a tragedy interrupted, I once said. Do you finish with the kiss or when she opens her eyes to tell him she loves him and sees blonde hairs on his collar?”

Who put an advert in a magazine
To the annoyance of my imaginary lover
She doubted my integrity

“You really love her don't you," she said.
With all my heart."
She looked as sad as I'd ever seen her.

I don't know."
Maybe", she said gently,"You're trying to hard to hear it.”
