There have been a few Fanfictions about what Satine was thinking during elephant love medley, but what about Christian. Here's what I think Christian might be thinking while he sings about Love to Satine. When it's done you are free to laugh and criticize all you want. Just review.

Disclaimer: I don't own Moulin Rouge or any of the characters, although I will always have Christian in my heart.


I can't fall in love with anyone

She's kidding right? The passion she has when she sings, the longing in her eyes. Of course she wants love. She just doesn't realize it.

Can't fall in love? But a life without love that's terrible!

No one can refuse to fall in love. Even her. There is no life without love.

No, being on the streets that's terrible

She's unbelievable. Yet she is amazing.

No! Love is like oxygen

Think Christian. It is up to you to get her to believe in love. Maybe she can actually fall in love with you.

Love is a many splendored thing

Love lifts us up where we belong

All you need is love

Yes that's it. All that is needed in life is love.

Please don't start that again

She doesn't want me to sing. She knows that she will fall for my poetry. Well maybe I will give her a taste of what she is missing.


(Singing) All you need is love

Love, Love, Love. Just accept it Satine.

A girl has got to eat

Wow she is stubborn. But she cannot be as strong as she seems. She has to have a breaking point.


All you need is love

Satine's trying to remain calm but I can see the distress in her eyes. She wants t give in.
She'll end up on the street

I have to get her to sing back. Just to hear her beautiful voice again.

All you need is love

Sing Satine. Sing


Love is just a game

Okay. Here I go.


I was made for loving you baby
You were made for loving me

She knows that she loves me. Her eyes told me how she really felt when she thought I was the Duke.


The only way of loving me baby
Is to pay a lovely fee

She doesn't realize that I don't want her body, I want her heart. I want her love.


Just one night
Give me just one night

She's a human beneath the courtesan. I have to find the human within the character.

There's no way
Cause you can't pay

She's right. I can't afford her. But love should be enough for both of us.


In the name of love
One night in the name of love

If she would only give me one night she would know that I love her. And that she can love too.


You crazy fool
I won't give in to you

I am a crazy fool. Crazy for being in love with The Sparkling Diamond. But I can't let her go. Stop Satine.

Don't leave me this way

At least she stopped.


I can't survive without your sweet love
Oh baby don't leave me this way

She refuses to look at me.


You'd think that people would have enough of silly love songs

She sounds so sad. She doesn't really want to give up on love. It is Harold who wants her to give up. She still wants love.


I look around me and I see it isn't so, oh no

She looks so sad. I just want to take her in my arms and tell her everything will be okay. I want to take away all her pain.


Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs

Dear God, I'm in love with her. I am fully and completely in love with Satine.


Well what's wrong with that

She's so close. We are going to kiss. She's given in. She loves me.


I like to know

No. Why did she turn away? I saw it in her eyes. She loves me. She is just so stubborn, and such a good actress. But she loves me. I know it. Now I just have to prove it.


Cause here I go again

(At this point Christian is not thinking, he just acts. Not exactly smart, but extremely romantic.)

Love lifts us up where we belong
Where the eagles fly
On a mountain high

She just had to pull me from my happiness. I wanted to shout out to the world that I loved her. Why on earth is she still arguing with me.

Love makes us act like we are fools

I can't say she is wrong about that. I just nearly killed myself, jumoing ontot he ledge of the elephant.
Throw our lives away
For one happy day

There is nothing wrong with one happy day. One day of love can last a life time.

We can be heroes
Just for one day

She must think I am crazy. I am crazy, crazy with love.

You, you will be mean

She cannot possible believe that.

No I won't

I can't hold my laughter in at that comment.

And I, I'll drink all the time

Great way to grasp at straws Satine.

We should be lovers

I have her now. She won't meet my eyes because she knows that I will see her love.

We can't do that

A little more pushing and I will have her. She will love me as I love her. She will embrace love, and know what a wonder it is.

We should be lovers
And that's a fact

There it is in her eyes. She loves me.

Though nothing would keep us together

Love will keep us together. This bond that I feel between us is strong enough to hold a poet and a courtesan's love together.

We could steal time
Just for one day

I did it. I got Satine's love. She loves me and I love her.


We can be heroes
Forever and ever

(Christian is expressing his thoughts here, so there is no reason to repeat what he says.)

We can be heroes
Forever and ever
We can be heroes

Are these stars real or just in my head. The stars of my love exploding.

Just because I, and I will always love you

I can't help

Her voice is the sweetest in the world.

Loving You

(At this point Christian became lost in Satine's gaze. No thought crossed his mind.)

How wonderful life is now

She's singing my song. Her song. The song I wrote for her and will always save for her.

You're in the world

Love. How magical it is. I love her. She loves me. Nothing can ever be wrong while I have her.


Ok that's it. It might not be great but review anyway.
