Roger: What'd you forget Mimi: Got a light? Roger: I know you, you're...you're shivering Mimi: It's nothing, they turned off my heat and I'm just a little weak on my feet. Would you light my candle? What are you staring at? Roger: Nothing, your hair in the moonlight. You look familiar. Can you make it? Mimi: Just haven't eaten much today, at least the room's stopped spinning anyway...What? Roger: Nothing, your smile reminded me of... Mimi: I always remind people of...who is she? Roger: She died. Her name was April Mimi: It's out again...sorry 'bout you friend. Would you light my candle? Roger: Well... Mimi: Yeah? Ouch! Roger: Oh the wax...it's... Mimi: Dripping...I like it between my Roger: ...Fingers, I figured...oh well, good night. Roger: It blew out again? Mimi: No, I think that I dropped my stash Roger: I know I've seen you out and about, when I used to go out. Your candle's out. Mimi: I had it when I walked in the door...it was pure. Is it on the floor? Roger: The floor? Mimi: They say that I have the best ass below 14th street, is it true? Roger: What? Mimi: You're staring again. Roger: Oh no! I mean you do...have a nice, I mean, you look familiar Mimi: Like your dead girlfriend Roger: Only when you smile, but I'm sure I've seen you somewhere else... Mimi: Do you go to the Cat Scratch Club? That's where I work, I dance. Help me look. Roger: Yes! They used to tie you up. Mimi: Its a living... Roger: I didn't recognize you without the handcuffs Mimi: We could light the candle, oh won't you light the candle? Roger: Why don't you forget that stuff, you look like you're 16... Mimi: I'm 19 but I'm old for my age. I'm just born to be bad. Roger: I once was born to be bad...I used to shiver like that. Mimi: I have no heat, I told you Roger: I used to sweat Mimi: I got a cold Roger: Uh huh, I used to be a junkie Mimi: Now and then I like to... Roger: Uh huh Mimi: Feel good Roger: Oh hear it... Mimi: What's that? Roger: It's a candy bar wrapper. Mimi: We could light the candle. Oh what to do with my candle? Roger: That was my last match. Mimi: Our eyes'll adjust, thank God for the moon. Roger: Maybe its not the moon at all...I hear Spike Lee's shooting down the street. Mimi: Bah humbug...bah humbug Roger: Cold hands... Mimi: Yours too...big, like my father's. Do you wanna dance? Roger: With you? Mimi: No, with my father Roger: I'm Roger Mimi: They call me, they call me...Mimi
