Xanadu Page #3

Didn't wanna tell ya

I'm gettin' old, babe

I want some love

You wouldn't even know me now

That's true

Yes, I do, indeed I do

But I'd know you

You know I do

Gimme, gimme

Yes

What I cry for

I'd certainly know you

You know you've got

I remember

The kind of kisses

That I'd die for

everything

Oh-ho

You know

How I remember it

You made me

Love you

No other face could

take you off my mind

You're so refined

You're much too kind

I have to warn you

I'm never gonna set you free

'Cause I was born to

Love you for eternity

Whenever you're away from me

Wherever you go

You're never far away from me

I want you to know

I only have to close

my eyes, dear

And suddenly I'm where you are

You better never stray

'Cause I'll never be far away

On every breeze I seem

to hear your name

My heart's to blame

I feel the same

I'd fall apart, dear

If you'd let the feelin' end

Don't break a heart, dear

Nobody else could mend

Whenever you're away from me

Wherever you go

You're never far away from me

I want you to know

I only have to close

my eyes, dear

And suddenly I'm where you are

You better never stray

'Cause I'll never be far away

You better never stray

'Cause I'll never be far

A way

- Hello. Oh, I'm sorry

- Hey! You scared the hell outta me

I'm sorry if I disturbed you.

I tried to be quiet

- How long you been standin' there?

- Just a few seconds

- Should I go?

- No, stay

You paint beautifully

This is the first time

I've cared about

what I've painted in a long time

It's a shame. It must be frustrating

to waste your talents on things

- that don't really matter to you

- Yeah

I met a guy. He told me

I should take long lunch hours

- A guy?

- Someone I met at the beach

He's got this crazy

idea to build a club

He asked me if

I'd help him find a place

All the real estate agents

in this town, he asks me

That's not a crazy idea.

You've got a good eye

That's what he said

If it's a place you want, what about

this one? My place, where we met

That? Forget it

I think it has a very

special aura about it

It's a dump!

You're supposed to be an

artist. Use your imagination

Thanks, I'm all out

You know, I really think

you believe that

I've had enough for tonight

- Come on, let's get out of here

- Okay

- What's this?

- Shh, be quiet

I thought we were going skating

I wanna show you

the special studio first

Only the biggest groups

get to record here

- It's really kinda magic

- Hmm?

They flash all sorts

of pictures on screens

Really? Can we see it?

Straight ahead

But pictures in a

recording studio? Why?

- For inspiration

- Oh, inspiration. Sounds perfect

I've only watched them do this

a couple of times before

Let's see. Turn on

that one. And this

I don't know how to make

the whole thing work

- Press 'em all

- I don't wanna break it

- Press them carefully!

- What the hell

I didn't like the job anyway

Let's see

Now will we see the magic?

Sure. Come on

Careful

She walks in

And I'm suddenly a hero

I'm taken in

My hopes begin to rise

Look at me

Can't you tell I'd be

so thrilled to see

- The message in your eyes

- You make it seem

I'm so close to my dream

And then suddenly it's all right

Suddenly the wheels

are in motion

And I

I'm ready to sail any ocean

Suddenly I don't

need the answers

'Cause I

I'm ready to take

all my chances with you

And how can I

Feel you're all that matters

I'd rely on anything you say

I'll take care

That no illusions shatter

If you dare say

what you should say

You make it seem

I'm so close to my dream

And then suddenly it's all right

Suddenly the wheels

are in motion

And I

I'm ready to sail any ocean

Suddenly I don't

need the answers

'Cause I

I'm ready to take

all my chances with you

Why do I feel so alive

When you're near

There's no way any hurt

Can get through

Longin' to spend

every moment of the day

With you

With you

Suddenly the wheels

are in motion

And I

I'm ready to sail any ocean

Suddenly I don't

need the answers

'Cause I

I'm ready to take

all my chances with you

Ah-ah-ah-ah

Hey! What the hell's

goin' on in here?

Malone! Is that you?

Yes!

No, it's not me.

It's somebody else

Do you have any idea how much

this equipment costs? Huh?

- Oh, sh*t!

- That was great

- You were great

Our first dance together

Followed by our first

being-kicked-out together

- Now I want to go somewhere else

- Where?

Find out more about you

You know enough about me.

I wanna know about you

- I'm serious

- So am I

After all that, do you think you'd

let your imagination roam a little?

I won't even

start in on that one

What are you doin'?

- What do you think you're doin'?

- Oh, nothing

Oh, ha. Well, well, well.

What a coincidence

Look where we

just happened to end up

- You think you're

clever, don't you?

I just didn't want you to close

your eyes to any possibilities

You really think this

could work out for Danny?

I think this place could be

anything you want it to be

See, it's simple.

Your friend has a dream

and you want to be involved in

something you really believe in

Maybe his dream is big

enough for the both of you

So here we are. Someone who believes

that dreams come easy, and...

Someone who doesn't know

what they believe in

So just think about it, okay?

Just think about it

You gotta be kidding. This place?

They used to have wrestling here

It's got a history of success

It needs some fixin' up.

It could look terrific

So could the Titanic

Kid, you don't need a builder.

You need a demolition team

I know it's a wreck now, but I

can see it coming to life again

Just check it out, Danny

- What put you onto this?

- A girl

Oh, that explains everything

Hey, Danny, don't you think

there's a certain kind of...

aura about this place?

Well, if that's what you call it,

it's got it all right

Let's see the rest of it

Course, it's not small and

intimate like my club in New York

But then again, that was back

in 1945 and things are bigger now

And this place. Whoo! Sure is big

- Yeah, it is

- Well, I don't know

Naturally, I can't take

all this too seriously

But if I were going to do

something. And I can't say I am

I'm a builder and a builder has to

take his time deciding these things

If I were going to do

something about it

speaking hypothetically,

it just might work

- You think so?

- Might. If I planned it right

Let's see, uh.

Stage over there

Stairs there and there

and back there

- Can you imagine it?

- Imagine what?

A bandstand right over

there in that corner

And a big band,

like in the '40s

No. Bandstands went out

with running boards. Over there

A great rock 'n' roll band.

This is the '80s

Real smooth dancers...

Wild trombone

The band decked out in tuxedos

Six guys wearin' electric orange...

Synthesizer, heavy

percussion, electric guitar...

Lots of glamour. Everybody

dressed in elegance and style

Do it, Daddy, do it

Anybody blue
