"Right Bianca" Lucy said, brushing a lock of red hair from her eyes and fingering the keys of the piano, "That was really good, I've got something you might like"
Bianca watched as she pulled out her old 'Miss Saigon' book, she looked at the page "That's a duet" she said mater of factly
Lucy nodded, "yes, I'll sing Kim you sing Ellen; that's the higher part and you need to work on your head voice. Now do you want me to play it through?"
Bianca nodded, "Please" she listened as Lucy played the noted, trying to ignore a tiny cavalier puppy tugging at her leg. She was soon relieved as Milly, one of the older ones, came and picked up her puppy and trotted away. Lucy came to a finnish "I like it" Bianca said finally
Lucy smiled, "I'm glad, now remember, open throat and don't let the chords touch and most of all...support. You can't get the high noted otherwise"
Bianca nodded, flexing her throat as she took in a breath. Once Lucy had finnished the introduction she began,
"Last night I watched him sleeping
My body pressed to him
And then he started speaking
The name I heard him speak...was Kim
Yes I know that this was years ago
But when moonlight fills my room I know
You are here...still
I still
I still believe
You will return
I know you will
My heart
Against all odds
Holds still
Yes, still
I still believe
I know as long as I can keep believing
I'll live
I'll live
Love cannot die
You will return...you will return
And I alone know why"
Lucy played the accompimant with ease and when t came to her part she didn't even have to look at the music,
"Last night I watched you sleeping
Once more the nightmare came
I heard you cry out something
A word that sounded like...a name
And it hurts me more than I can bear
Knowing part of you I'll never share
Never know
But still
I still believe
The time will come
When nothing keeps us apart
My heart, forever more
Holds still
It's all over, I'm here
There is nothing to fear
Chris, what's haunting you?
Won't you let me inside
What you so want to hide?
I need you too!"
Lucy banged on the keys as the piece reached a new level, Bianca prepared herself as the two voices joined as one.
"For still"
"I will hold you all night
I will make it all right"
"I still belive"
"You are safe with me"
"As long as I"
"But I wish you would tell
what you don't want to tell"
"Can keep believing, I'll live"
"What your hell must be"
"I'll live"
"You can sleep now"
"You will return"
"You can cry now"
"and I know why"
"I'm your wife now"
"I'm yours"
"For life"
And together they sang the last line "Until we die!"
The two finnished, exhausted, "Wow" Lucy said finally, "That was brilliant Bianca, really fantastic"
Bianca smiled and gathered her things, scooping a puppy from her bag "Thanks" she said "But I think I can do better"
Lucy smiled "Always willing to improve, I like that"
Both of their head turned as a new voice penertrated the room.
