running about the house with flu and the

temperature

never heard anything like it what else

could she do i know

i offered her a nurse but i think she

was hoping her sister would look emily

hardly

anyhow it's pneumonia now and hospital

is the place

does emily know i'm just going to tell

her

if

if i can find my way around

she might as well know what she's let

her sister in for

[Music]

so

[Music]

how can two people live so close

and yet feel nothing for each other

[Music]

in the same house

it's impossible

[Music]

why do you say that

people can live for years not

i don't see why not anyway

don't you

you talking about them

or us

runs upset you hasn't he

he was beastly

do you think i don't know what's going

on

i'm not blind

you give yourself away 100 times a day

don't you

look

ron didn't say anything we didn't know

already

do you think

you think you love me

isn't that it

oh dora

do you know what my old grandmother used

to say

she used to say that life's a treasure

hunt

and we all go through our lives

collecting treasures we can remember

when we're old

special moments places

and people

she believed

the more treasures you had the longer

you lived

because you had more nice things to look

back on i suppose

you ever heard that

she really believed it

there's things i'll remember

and the first time i ever rode a horse

my mother's face when she discovered i'd

gone to find her

to tell her everything was all right

this afternoon

you dora

working with you

knowing you

and sharing my days with you

these are all treasures

we can't ask for more

because more wouldn't work

we're in the same house

but we're miles apart

no we're not

we are

miles

who's more afraid of change

you or me

love changes things

[Music]

doesn't have to

but it does

we're alone as

dora from different worlds

i think i'm lucky to have shared this

much with you

all you are

and all you mean to me

[Music]

don't change it

[Music]

where are you going

[Music]

we

where are we going dora

we share things remember

we're going back to that house

to that woman

gaps are preachable

some take a little longer than others

that's all

[Music]

dora

[Music]

we've talked about it

feel better now

you see

[Music]

so

[Music]

oh

hey

come on

look what was it all about

tell me

come on own up

you'll feel better if you talk about it

it does help

it all seems so silly really but it is

when you spell it out she put the tea in

first in the cup

i always like the milk in first

oh there were other things too lots of

them

it doesn't sit better anymore

it doesn't

she's ill and she needs you

i don't know what to say

you don't have to say anything

just go to her

what will happen do you think to agnes

and emily

i don't know

they've left their treasure on a bit

later

my first real treasure

a beautiful day

thank you

come on

if we're going to look after these two

loved birds we better get some things

i'll race you back to folly

[Music]

dreams come true when you want them to

if you want them to then it's up to you

never give it too easily

[Music]
