(Torres)
But don't you see?
[Sung]
my name and your name they go together so well
If they were together on top of sheet music on day
I wouldn't be surprised.
[Spoken]
(Tucci)
That's nice, but I'm just not sure you and me would make a very good we, you know?
[Sung]
(Torres)
Nonsense!
All I need is a chance to shine and
you'll see our hearts beat in perfect time
Just you wait and see
that you and me make the perfect we.
[Spoken]
(Tucci)
I'm sure.
[Sung]
(Torres)
It's true! just put your trust in me and you'll see
How great we two can be
[Spoken]
(Tucci)
Alright.
[Sung]
(Torres)
Whenever you're feeling lonely
or at a loss for words
When you think your writing
isn't even meant for the birds
thats when I'll step in
and show you the way
I'll be the blue sky
in your stormy day
I can rhyme circles around anyone
Just pick someone you'll see
That no other words compare
to those said by me
Don't be unaware,
you and me make the perfect we.
[Spoken]
(Tucci)
Well someone's conceited.
(Torres)
Not conceited, confident.
(Tucci)
Same difference.
[Sung]
I do just fine thank you
writing music all by myself
And though I don't have cliches to share
I don't at all need your help
I mean sure, it's been hard so far
and maybe there's other lyrics out there
sometimes its all I can do
from pulling out my hair
But I know that you're not the one
To help me through this mess
I can pull myself out of this hole
I work well under duress
I don't think that you and me
would make any kind of we
[Spoken]
(Torres)
Well, if you're sure.
(Tucci)
I am.
(Torres)
If there's no chance you'll change your mind
(Tucci)
None at all.
(Torres)
All right. (Pause) But still...
[Sung]
I can't let this go, I need you to see
maybe its not just you that needs me
there are days when I get stuck
and can't write melodies
I need someone like you
to get me out of this funk
I know you and me would make the perfect we
The music that you write is always pure and sweet
and when it comes to syncopation you've got me beat
(Tucci)
I do.
(Torres)
So you've got to let me work with you
and together we can be
so much greater than if it was
just you or just me
[Spoken]
(Tucci)
Well, when you put it that way, I guess...
(Torres)
Yes?
(Tucci)
No, I can't
(Torres)
You can't?
(Tucci)
I can't, and I shan't.
(Torres)
But don't you see? "You" and "me" do make the perfect "we."
(Tucci)
So I've heard.
[Sung]
(Torres)
Just drop the "You" flip the "M" and then you've got "we."
(Tucci)
Just drop the "You" flip the "M" and then you've got "we?" It's true!
(Tucci and Torres)
Just drop the "You" flip the "M" and then you've got "we."That's us!
---Tap Dance---
[Spoken]
(Tucci)
you've got yourself a deal, Torres.
I'm a sucker for cute phrases and dance numbers.
(Torres)
Yes!
(Tucci)
Just promise that no matter what happens
It will always be you and me that makes the perfect we.
(Torres)
Well...(Tucci glares at him)
Ok!
[Sung]
(Tucci)
If you'll just drop the "you"...
(Torres)
and you'll just flip the "M".
Then you and me...
(Tucci)
Yes you and me...
(Tucci and Torres)
Just You and Me We'll make the perfect we.

Description:
So. Here's a little piece from a musical about a singer and a songwriter trying to make it big.
Then they meet, and there's slight animosity.
Then they realize they need each other.
That's where this comes in. - Date: 02/24/2009
