Christine's eyes fluttered open and she let out a yawn. She rolled onto her side and saw her husband sleeping. She shook him and he groaned. "Wake up darling." She chirped. He turned onto his side and saw his wife, smiling back at him. "Good morning Christine." He said, his voice filled with warmth. They exchanged smiles that morning.
Gustave was downstairs reading while Ayesha was on his lap. "I wonder what mama and father are doing." He said. Ayesha stretched and jumped down from the chair. She wandered over to the door and began to scratch at it. Gustave looked over and saw. He put the book down and opened the door. Ayesha ran out onto the streets and disappeared into the distance. Gustave closed the door and got back to reading his book.
The family sat around the table eating breakfast. "So father when can I meet this man?" Gustave asked. "Well I don't really know." Erik said. Ayesha entered the kitchen and ate out of her bowl. "So Erik, when are we playing again?" Christine asked. "I don't know. Haven't gotten any phone calls lately." They finished up their breakfast and washed the dishes.
They headed on down the street and set up their act in front of the pet store. Gustave began to play while his mother and father sang.
There are people who have let the problems of today
Lead them to conclude that for them life is not the way
But every problem has an answer and if it's yours you cannot find
You should talk it over with Him
He'll give you peace of mind
When you feel your life's too hard
Just go have a talk with God
Many of us feel we walk alone without a friend
Never communicating with the One who lives within
Forgetting all about the One who never ever lets us down
And you can talk to him anytime
He's always around
When you feel your life's too hard
Just go have a talk with God
Well He's the only free psychiatrist that's known throughout the world
For solving problems of all men, women, little boys and girls
When you feel your life's too hard
Just go have a talk with God
When you feel your life's too hard
Just go have a talk with God
When your load's too much to bear
Just go talk to God
He cares
I know he does
When you feel your life's too hard
Just go have a talk with God
Thank you
Thank you very much
People walked past them giving spare change and flowers. Then, a man walked past dropping a bag full of francs. He looked back and winked. He then placed a small bouquet of pink roses in front of Christine. They soon ended the song and collected their change. "Well we have a total of $300 francs. That's impressive." Erik said. Christine was admiring the bouquet of pink roses.
There was a tag that said: I've seen better but I've seen best- Raoul De Changy. Christine smiled and knew that she had a fan. "Well we best get home before something bad happens. Christine?" He looked at his wife. Christine looked up at her husband and nodded. They headed home and settled down.
Christine put the bouquet of roses in a vase in their bedroom. She still couldn't help but think of that generous gentleman. "Christine?" She heard her husband enter and spun around. "Is something the matter Erik?" She asked. "No." He said. There was a moment of silence. Erik turned on the radio and a familiar song came on.
The book of love is long and boring
No one can lift the damn thing
It's full of charts and facts, some figures and instructions for dancing
But I,
I love it when you read to me
And you,
You can read me anything
Erik walked forward and took his wife's hand. They soon started to dance around the room.
The book of love has music in it
In fact that's where music comes from
Some of it is just transcendental
Some of it is really dumb
But I,
I love it when you sing to me
And you,
Can sing me anything
They stared into each other's eyes while they danced.
The book of love is long and boring
And written very long ago
It's full of flowers and heart shaped boxes
And things we're all too young to know
But I,
I love it when you give me things
And you,
You ought to give me wedding rings
You ought to give me wedding rings
The song soon ended and Erik pulled his wife's face close to his. Their lips locked for a minute while the song's music still played. They stared into each other's eyes for a minute. "Whatever did I do to deserve a woman like you?" He asked. Christine smiled at her husband. They soon ended the dance with a kiss.
