The Secret Garden of Jerry MaGuire

I Love This Movie... sometimes I watch this movie again. I've always liked it, and liked it a lot. In short, this film is nothing short of miraculous. There is something about this movie that I've just now realized. What it is, I'm not sure, but I do have a theory: Soul. It is an uncompromising movie about principles and loyalty and the true nature of Love. I've seen a lot of love stories, but I rarely see one that tries to get to the true bottom of what love really is the way that this one does.

Someday, I wish I love a woman enough to pour my heart out to her as Tom does to Renee at the end of this movie. I someday wish to meet a woman that I can't live without who, in turn, can't live without me. Until then, I can simply watch "Jerry Maguire", cry my eyes out, and dream... :)

Here's the song and the dialogues:

Secret Garden
(Jerry MaGuire Version)
Sung by: Bruce Springsteen

Dorothy: "I was just about to tell you"
Laurel: (uh huh)
Dorothy: "That I love him, I do.. I love him, I love him and I don't care what you think.. I love him for the man he wants to be and I love him for the man he almost is.. I love him Laurel.. I love him, I love him"

(Bruce)
She'll let you in her house
If you come knockin' late at night
She'll let you in her mouth
If the words you say are right
If you pay the price
She'll let you deep inside
But there's a secret garden she hides

Cuba: "You got to be fair to her. She loves you. If you don't love her, you got to tell her"

(Bruce)
She'll let you in her car
To go drivin' round
She'll let you into the parts of herself
That'll bring you down
She'll let you in her heart if you got a hammer and a vise
But into her secret garden, don't think twice

Jerry: "What if we got married if I said that would you stay,"
Dorothy: "No, no, don't do that, don't say that unless."

(Bruce)
You've gone a million miles

Dorothy: "Well you can say if you want to"

(Bruce)
How far'd you get

Jerry: "Will you marry me?"

(Bruce)
To that place where you can't remember

Jerry: "What are you thinking?"

(Bruce)
And you can't forget

Dorothy: "Laurel, we're getting married"

(Bruce)
She'll lead you down a path
There'll be tenderness in the air
She'll let you come just far enough
So you know she's really there
She'll look at you and smile
And her eyes will say
She's got a secret garden
Where everything you want
Where everything you need
Will always stay
A million miles away

Priest: "Do you Jerry Mcguire take this women to be your lawfully wedded wife? And do you Dorothy boyce (Dorothy Says,"not now sweetheart") take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband? I know pronounce you husband and wife."
Dorothy: "I pretended that proposal by the car was real and it might have been just a hypothetical I did this and at least I can do something about it now"
Jerry: "So this brake is a brake up" (sighs)
Dorothy: "Come on Jerry you know this isn't easy for me"
Jerry: "OK, OK, if this is where it has to end, if this is where it has to happen. I'm not letting you get rid of me. How about that? I miss my wife. I love You! You.. complete me and I just ha..."
Dorothy: "Just shut up, just shut up. You had me at hello, you had me at hello.....
