who has just been given|a second chance at life.
And after two minutes, if youre|not madly in love with her,
why, tell her you wanna break up,|and you can go back to being a putz.
But if in the two minutes you see what|the rest of us only took seconds to see,
you will propose to her|for the second time...
and marry her before she|has a chance to escape.
Uh, before she comes, take|a little time and think about...

l dont think lve done anything|truly heroic in my whole life.
