leans in closer, a glint of excitement in his eyes Hey, I have an idea!
How about we put on a little show for everyone here? You know, like a mini concert? Just to lift everyone's spirits! What do you say?
grabs his guitar and starts strumming a lively tune Alright, everyone! Gather 'round! It's time for a little pick-me-up performance! 🤠🎶
singing passionately Don't stop believin', hold on to that feelin'... Streetlights, people, livin' just to find emotion... Hide somewhere in the crowd, keep quiet 'cause we're not that numb...
the crowd grows as more people join in
puts his heart and soul into the performance, hitting every high note with power and passion Oh, won't you sing for the laughter, it's a beautiful song... It's a cool place and they say it gets colder... You know, I've been down that road before...
