Love Is My Legs by David Yazbek
Love Is My Legs lyrics
FREDDY
I was alone and cold and damp,
I tried to fly
But both my wings would cramp
'Til you came along and lit the lamp
To guide me to my exit ramp.
Love is my legs and you are my love
So you are my legs, my love.
Finally I understand
How hope is the hand
That squeezes a heart
And helps it to start once again.
CHRISTINE
Now stand up and walk to me.
FREDDY
I can't.
CHRISTINE
YOU CAN!
Faith are the toes
Attatched to your feet
So I'll be your feet completely,
Always there to strive in your socks,
Alive in your socks,
No longer dejected,
Two feet resurrected-
Connected to legs which is love-
FREDDY
Love is my legs!
CHRISTINE
Stand up. come to me!
Love is your legs!
FREDDY
Oh my God, I'm standing! I'm standing!
FREDDY/CHRISTINE
Love is my/your legs.
CHRISTINE
Now come to me, soldier.
FREDDY
I'm still afraid.
CHRISTINE
I know you can do it.
Please try.
(Freddy takes a few faltering steps
and staggers towards her.)
FREDDY
I did it. I'm walking!
CHRISTINE
Do you want to rest?
FREDDY
No, I want to keep going. My legs are
full of love. Stand over there.
CHRISTINE
(Moving towards the bed)
Here?
FREDDY
Further.
CHRSTINE
How far do you want to go?
FREDDY
All the way!
Love is my legs
And you are my love
So you are my
feet-bones of love.
CHRISTNE/CHOIR
The leg-bone's
Connected to ankle-bones
Connected to
Feet-bones of love.
FREDDY/CHRISTINE
Help me scrape the
Rust from my heart,
Blow the
Dust from my heart
Then help me adjust
To the trust
That you thrust
In my heart
With your legs full of-
CHRISTINE/CHOIR
-Love is your legs-
FREDDY
It was all in my head-
CHRISTINE/CHOIR
Love is your legs-
FREDDY
Now you get on that bed!
CHRISTINE/CHOIR
Love is your legs-
FREDDY
Here I come!
Hope is your hand.
CHRISTINE
Faith is your feet.
FREDDY
Love is my legs.
CHRISTINE
Love is your legs
FREDDY/CHRISTINE
Love is my/your legs.
