*pads into his bedroom, goes over to the window and opens the blinds widely, letting lots of light in the room. He covers his eyes a bit and goes over to the closet and starts rummaging through his closes, throwing several pairs of jeans on the bed and grumbles to himself. He drops to his knees and throws a couple of pairs of shoes out of there. Staying on his knees, he crawls over to his bed and throws up the sham and sheets and digs under the bed, he wriggles himself more under the bed and searches more. He pulls back and brings a dusty guitar case from under there. He sits his back against the bed, dusts it off a bit and opens the case. Takes the guitar out of the case, runs his fingers down the neck and tightens the strings a bit. He strums it a couple times in attempt to tune it better and get himself reacquainted with it. He clears his throat, looks around the room and starts to sing lightly to himself as he plays*



It is not just in novels or in movies
It is fact
And it is standing here right in front of you
So if you open your eyes
Oh, what a sweet discovery
Tere is hope and there is joy and there is acceptance
So now let all the light that collects on your plants
keep you warm, make you smile
And I will be there with this pen in my hand
To record all the while you'll be laughing so loud
That the house would shake with sound
And everything will be as new as the day it was found

Oh, love is real
It is not just in long distance commercials
Or something that you thought you felt back in high school
So I will turn black and white
Become that horoscope you're reading
It predicts something good is on its way
And then I will send you the world green and blue
In a box through the mail
You can open it up hold it right in your hand
And be glad that it's there
And be glad that you're there
Now you can feel the knots in your stomach start to untie
And suddenly it's not so hard to say you're alright

Oh, love is real
It is not just in poetry and stories
It is truth and it will follow you everywhere you go from now on
So if you just cast off your doubt
Then your lips would answer for you
Oh my darling, when you smile it is like a song
And I can hear it now
And I can hear it now
And I can hear it now
And I can hear it now
And I can hear it now
Yes I can....
