I can't promise it would be no different.

- The way I am, that's how I am.

- Me, too.

I know everything wrong with me:

Too ambitious,

disillusions of grandeur and all that.

- And what about me getting nervous?

- I get nervous, too, don't I?

It's a nervous world.

- Guess we found that out.

- Yeah.

Listen, Florrie...

you think so?

I'm too scared.

I mean, when we got together finally,

the first time...

I never imagined it could be different

or we could bust up or anything...

but now I'd always be thinking about it.

What makes you think I'd let you?

Well, I mean, at least I'd know it's possible.

Maybe it's a good thing,

to know it's possible.

Maybe.

I'd like to make a promise

everything's going to be different.

But how can I promise that?

But I'll tell you what I can do.

I can tell you I'd certainly try.

I would, too.

- With the bottom of my heart.

- So what's wrong with that?

So okay?

If we could only remember

not to blame each other...

when things went the wrong way.

So, okay, I come over there?

I don't see any stop sign, do you?

Good night, folks.

Good night is right.
