"and how it's terrible that nobody's writing them anymore. "and so i decided to start one to you today. "and i'm going to write to you every day "for a long, long, long time "because i think i might be in danger "of falling in love with you." ♪ falling in love with you lindy: hey, it's me. my dad is gonna be okay, but i really want to talk to you about your letter.
where are you? look, i don't understand. you wrote me this letter. why won't you call me back? because i'm "a good friend." what's going on? hunter. ♪ can't find the road that runs though kyle: i'm out of time. zola: call her back.
why, becausei'm "a good friend?" and not calling her back,what good that do, huh? she even called me.why won't you talk to her? the last time i talked to her,she told me she was hurt. and "hurt" is girl-speak for,"call now, bonehead." she don't know what to do,so she go back toschool to go on the trip. ♪ falling in love with you ♪ lindy. what are you doing here?
i had to see youbefore you left. you wrote me that letter. i know. and then youdidn't call me back. i'm sorry. you knew what wasgoing on with me. i was being dumb. yeah, hunter... i just was scaredthat you didn't...
didn't what? love me. and i didn't think you could.because of how ugly i am. and i shouldhave known better,that that's not who you are. you took one look at me and still saidyou'd seen worse. somehow, when i'm around you, i don't feel ugly at all.
it's because you're not. man on p.a.: attention all students. the machu picchu bus is leaving now. go. you deserve it. nothing's gonnachange while you're gone. that i can promise. hunter. i love you. (echoing) i love you.
kendra: kyle. kyle. lindy: i love you. hunter! kyle! sorry,i'm looking for someone.i don't mean to be rude. i get it. and sometime,you'll tell mewhat happened to you. i met someone.
that's great. she reminds me of you. and she showed methat love can change you. do you thinklove can change you? of course. then you'll believe the storyi'm about to tell you. it's about a guy,good-looking on the outside, ugly on the inside. and there's a curse.love changes him.
everyone knows that story. what if it wasn't a story? what if it were true? can you imaginethat love? can you? it's you. will: wake up. wake up. wake up. wake up.
it's a dream, right? it must be. but happy. very damn happy. mr. kingson, your new internis coming up in the elevator. i thought youmight want to meet her. just as long asshe's easy on the eyes. well, she's a bitodd looking. no dog faces,no dumpy frumps.
but her reference saidno matter whatyou throw her way, she can alwayswork magic. ♪ what do you do when you're stuck ♪ 'cause the one that you love ♪ has pushed you away? ♪ and you can't deal with the pain ♪ and now you're trying to fix me ♪ mend what he did ♪ and find the piece that i'm missing
♪ but i still miss him i miss him, i'm missing him ♪ and you're sitting in the front row ♪ wanna be first in line ♪ waiting by my window ♪ giving me all your time ♪ you could be my hero if only i could let go ♪ but his love is still in me ♪ like a broken arrow ♪ what do you do when your heart's in two places?
♪ you feel great but you're torn inside ♪ you feel love but you just can't embrace it ♪ when you found the right one at the wrong time ♪ waiting by my window giving me all your time ♪ ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah ♪
