[MAN & WOMAN 2, spoken] I've been in love more than you know Oh, Gary, hi, listen But somehow words never could flow Gary, I thought about, we need to do something Whеn I met you, there on thе bus, out of the blue And found I could talk to you If you could just get a couple of beers on the— Tell you everything (I just said that we're gonna paint—) 'Bout my therapy (There's a few things—) And my trip to Greece (Honey, I'm not gonna—) And my boring job (Gary, listen to me, it's gonna be—) 'Til I am through And then I get to listen to you (Good, because I really—) [MAN] Make my heart start shouting More, more, more Because I've finally found my first rapport Through troubles large and small Our love will soar above it all [MAN & WOMAN 2, spoken] For we can talk! (Gary–) We can talk! (Gary—) We can talk to each other (It's gonna be—) We can talk to each other (I'm having an affair, Gary) We can talk to each other (With your brother, Gary) We can talk to each other (He's doing it to me now) We can talk [WOMAN 2 hangs up.] To each other!
