Silly Love Song

Disclaimer: No, unfortunately I don't own any of the characters from Moulin Rouge. This is a story about Love and not losing faith in love no matter what.

The Meeting

He walked the streets looking for a story, anything to strike his imagination. Christian is a man that believes in love. Love to him, overcomes all obstacles. As he walked down the street, he looked around and his eyes fell on one building. A building of sin. As Christian walked closer, he heard the most angelic voice emanating from the window.

I follow the night
Can't stand the light
When will I begin
To live again?

He glanced upward and noticed a woman standing by the window with tears in her eyes.

One day I'll fly away
Leave all this to yesterday
What more could your Love do for me?
When will Love be through with me?

The woman glanced down at the streets below and noticed a man staring at him. Her eyes widened for a moment, but then continued to sing.

Why live life from dream to dream?
And dread the day when dreaming ends

Her heart was breaking with every word she sang. Christian stood there and just listened. He closed his eyes and took in every word she was singing.


One day I'll fly away
Leave all this to yesterday
Why live life from dream to dream?
And dread the day when dreaming ends

One day I'll fly away
Fly, fly away

When she finished, she went inside and closed her window. Christian just stood there, amazed at what he heard. He sighed deeply and continued on his way down the street. He had never heard a song sung so beautifully. Christian glanced back one more time; he had just found his inspiration.

A/N: Okay, now I know this short and kind of confusing, but I thought I would give it a shot. Any reviews would be nice. I just recently started watching Moulin Rouge again and fell in love with it all over again so I thought I would try a shot at writing a fanfic about it. Anyway, I'd like to continue with this story and see where it goes.

Toodles!!
