[Fanny and Nick steal a private moment at the party and discover they are both a little lonely. Fanny sings:]
2
We travel single-oh
3
Maybe we're lucky, but I don't know--
4
With them,
5
Just let one kid fall down
6
And seven mothers faint.
7
I guess we're both happy, but maybe--
8
We ain't.
9
People--people who need people
10
Are the luckiest people in the world,
11
We're children, needing other children
12
And yet letting our grown-up pride
13
Hide all the need inside,
14
Acting more like children
15
Than children.
16
Lovers are very special people,
17
They're the luckiest people
18
In the world.
19
With one person, one very special person
20
A feeling deep in your soul
21
Says you were half,
22
Now you're whole.
23
No more hunger and thirst
24
But first be a person
25
Who needs people.
26
People who need people
27
Are the luckiest people
28
In the world!
29
Nick has to leave the party early because
30
he's going to Kentucky the next day but
31
promises to call Fanny when he returns
32
to New York.
