01:30who despite a number of owners, one minor operation, only 16 stitches, and a narrow escape from conversion to a mini skirt, is still a class act.
01:41I marvel that you could afford me a one-off from the mainland, though heaven knows you left me languishing and laid by for months.
01:51But I was worth it. I transformed you.
01:59I used to make all your clothes since you were a baby.
02:04Christenings, brownies, school uniforms.
02:08Ah, and Sunday school dresses.
02:10You look so much better than the other girls.
02:14Yes, Jesus loves me, the Bible just bestowed.
02:21All His bright and beautiful, all His earth's great and strong.
02:29All His earth's great and strong.
02:41The Kabbalah tells a legend.
02:54At the beginning, God said,
03:03Let there be light!
03:10Out of space, a flame burst out.
03:14God crushed that light to atoms.
03:30Myriads of sparks are hidden in our world, but not all of us behold them.
03:37The self-glorious who walks arrogantly, our bright will never perceive one.
03:46But the meek and modest, eyes downcast, He sees it.
03:55A light is sown for the pious.
04:00In the name of God, we solemnly proclaim that every transgressor,
04:09be it that he was unfaithful to our people because of fear,
04:15or mislead my false doctrines of any kind,
04:19out of weakness or greed, we give him leave to be one with us in prayer tonight.
04:27A light. A light is sown for the repenting sin.
04:42I hadn't actually done anything bad.
04:44I was just thinking a lot about boys and dancing.
04:49Yes, it wasn't until a few years later that you realised
04:55if your mum kept making your clothes, you'd end up an old maid.
05:00I was ready for my first proper dance with boys.
05:07I never felt before, there's a girl at my side.
05:12That I adore, there's a glow in my heart.
05:19I never felt before.
05:22I never felt before.
05:23I'm gonna tell Aunt Mary about Uncle John.
05:25He claims he has a misery, but he having a lot of fun.
05:28Oh, baby.
05:29Yes, baby.
05:32Whoo, baby.
05:34Having me some fun tonight.
05:37Yeah.
05:38Well, long, tall Sally, she's a beautiful species of God.
05:42Everything that Uncle John needs, oh, baby.
05:45Yeah, baby.
05:47Whoo, baby.
05:50Having me some fun tonight.
05:53We all know how well that ended.
05:56The smell of burning rubber and little misconception
05:59and me in the back of the FJ.
06:03Her shattered, me splattered.
06:07Meanwhile, Mr. Mino opens a clutch and the girls light up.
06:16All in love.
06:17Yes, baby.
06:18Then we just, let me know back.
06:20It's late.
06:21I'm crying.
06:22I think you know.
06:23No matter what, the hell of us is,
06:26the shrily pools.
06:27No matter what we're doing,
06:28we just don't have enough fun-like.
06:30Even we are, we are hoping that we can do it.
06:31Everything that you're waiting for,
06:32we have to be, we have to be, you know?
06:33Yes, you're listening to our friends.
06:34We are hoping that we can do it.
06:36When you're, we're hoping that we're not happy.
06:37We are still here, and we are hoping that we are.
06:39On our hearts, we have to be part of the summer world.
06:40We are not happy.
06:41We are hoping that we are not happy when it comes next to life.
06:43Oh, my God.
07:13Oh, my God.
07:43I retired at 65.
07:48I'd made good money.
07:50When the invitation to the reunion came,
07:54I thought,
07:55why not?
07:56I'm crossing you in style.
08:22Someday, oh, dream maker,
08:33you heartbreaker.
08:36Wherever you're going,
08:43I'm going your way.
08:49Two drifters
08:52off to see the world.
08:56There's such a lot of world to see.
09:05Moon river
09:20Wider than a mile.
09:26I'm crossing you in style someday.
09:32Oh, dream maker,
09:39you heartbreaker.
09:44Wherever you're going,
09:50I'm going your way.
09:55Two drifters
10:02off to see the world.
10:06There's such a lot of world to see.
10:13And we're after the same rainbows.
10:28We were leaving the age of Aquarius
10:45and entering the age of invisibility.
10:52Men looked through us.
10:55Capitalism focused on youth.
10:58Governments feared our growing numbers.
11:01And so we bonded in horticulture.
11:04In gumboots and gardening gloves,
11:08wielding whippersnippers,
11:09wheelbarrows and secateurs,
11:11our groups amass.
11:13And like an army
11:14who knows death is nigh,
11:17we bond.
11:20Don't tell us death is dark.
11:22We look at autumn's yellow,
11:25amber, gold, scarlet.
11:28And know death is life reimagined.
11:32Compost is future life force.
11:35Decay is a mushroom's mother.
11:38And dry seeds sprinkled with tears
11:41spawn sunflowers.

12:20don't fear our journey is yours we are the dress rehearsal for your own garden of pain and delight
12:36my body speaks in broken tongues my breath pumps dusty limpid lungs but still i fly
12:47my fingers float past tired eyes as beautiful as crooked lies they once could tiny needles thread
12:59but now ask questions of the dead but still i fly
13:07slack wings hung low from brittle bones beat empty air raise naught but groans my waist once hourglass
13:20sadly has become a plump parenthesis which holds two exclamation marks my breasts descending meadowlarks
13:29but still i fly i've had many lovers but only three great loves a child i've never known
13:44gardening and up shopping
13:47that dress is so beautiful yes it's an amazing frock i was thinking of buying it again but it would
14:03look so much better on you do you think yes can i buy it for you no i couldn't possibly yes it was made
14:09for you it's as good as new except for a bit of damage on the petticoat
14:16for once i didn't say anything but i knew they knew and i was imagining all the catch-ups they were
14:25gonna have kids grandkids life's highs and lows fjs and frocks a whole moon river of memories
