tommy

aria

tommy
bloody tabloids
they said you've been good at staying away from paps?

aria
oh yeah
i've spotted them a few times when i get out of work
my boss lets me take the back exit

tommy
i'm so sorry

aria
why are you sorry?

tommy
not to sound full of myself
but they're going after you because of me

aria
it's okay tom
look no matter what we are
i knew what i was signing up for when i decided to be your friend

tommy
but it's not fair to you

aria
i'll deal
i always wanted to be a singer growing up
so if i ever land a record deal
this is just practice

tommy
you'd make a great singer

aria
you don't even know what i sound like

tommy
don't need to
you're kind
and an amazing person
and you have a nice voice
i like listening to you talk

aria
tommy

tommy
yeah?
