Danny Deckchair Page #7

Synopsis: Based on a true story, the tale of a cement truck driver named Danny, whose long awaited vacation is cancelled thanks to his scheming girlfriend, Trudy. Danny escapes his grim life in suburban Australia and blasts into the skies in a chair tied with helium balloons. A mighty thunderstorm blows him clean off the map, and spits him out far away over the lush green town of Clarence. In this new town, he rockets into the world of Glenda, the town's only parking cop. While the media back home becomes obsessed with the story of his disappearance, Danny gets to reinvent himself in this new town, and in his great adventure, he discovers a true soulmate in Glenda. Fate catches up with him eventually, as Danny's true identity is revealed and Trudy--now a tabloid celebrity--comes to the idyllic town to claim Danny and drag him back to Sydney. Danny, however, is a changed man; he's discovered what it means to be happy and has found a new self-worth. Saying farewell to Trudy, Danny makes a dynamic

Nothing at all.

Maybe Iceland.

Do you reckon

you could pitch a tent in Iceland?

- Yeah.

- It wouldn't be too icy?

Huh-uh, Greenland is icy.

Iceland is green.

- You're kidding?

- Nope.

I'm gonna paint me a rainbow.

Make all my wishes come true.

I'm gonna plant me a garden.

What about you?

I'm gonna throw my own party.

I'm gonna get a tattoo.

I'm gonna do all the wild things.

What about you?

What about you?

What about you?

Will you join me on my journey?

What about you?

See the faces on the street?

How they seldom smile.

But I won't let it bother me.

No misery.

It's not my style.

What about you?

What about you?

Will you join me

on my journey?

What about you?

What about you?

What about you?

Will you join me

on my journey?

What about you?

Will you join me

What about you?

It's a quarter to 4:00 now.

I wanna open the door now.

Just to watch you bathe

in the moonlight heaven.

We drank a lot of wine and...

And you spend the night and...

You said things

you've never said before.

Don't leave me lonely

for a minute.

My glass is full,

look, you're in it.

Don't blink, we're fine.

I'm here, you're mine.

Don't breathe, don't run.

Stay a little longer.

Don't blink, we're fine.

I'm here, you're mine.

Stay a little longer.

You terrify me.

Well, you terrify yourself.

But we fit so fine

and you smell so good.

That I just cannot

fight it, baby.

I knew this would happen.

So don't disappoint me now.

You did things

you never did before.

I'm not gonna think

it's the real thing.

But I kinda know

what you're feeling.

Don't blink, we're fine.

I'm here, you're mine.

Don't leave me lonely

for a minute.

My glass is full,

look, you're in it.

Don't blink, we're fine.

I'm here, you're mine.

Don't breathe, don't run.

Stay a little longer.

Don't blink, we're fine.

I'm here, you're mine.

Stay a little longer.

Don't blink, we're fine.

I'm here, you're mine.

Don't breathe, don't run.

Won't you stay a little longer?

Don't blink, we're fine.

I'm here and you're mine.

Stay a little longer.

Don't blink, we're fine.

I'm here, you're mine,

don't breathe, don't run.
