George Bernard Shaw once wrote; "There are two tragedies in life: one is to lose your heart's desire, the other is to gain it." As far as I’m concerned, Shaw was a punk! 'Cause you know what? Tragedies happen. What're you gonna do, give up? Quit? No. I realize now that when your heart breaks, you gotta fight like hell to make sure you’re still alive. 'Cause you are, and that pain you feel: it's life. The confusion and fear.. that's there to remind you that somewhere out there is something better. And that something is worth fighting for.

His was playing a melody that seems familiar. He had the basic music, piano and guitar, playing from some small speakers and he was playing the saxophone. It was a really haunting melody and I couldn't figure the lyrics to the song apart from a line I remembered. "...falling in love with you..."
